"My wife and I worked with Ed and Tim from the Massey Allen Group to purchase a new home in Clayton. We move from Boston and did not know east bay very well or the California real estate market. From our first meeting, we were very impressed with both Ed and Tim. They took the time to get to know us, to understand what we were looking for and to educate us on the area. We were pleased with how well they understood the local market, and the nuances of the various communities in the east bay. We trusted them and relied on them to understand what a home would likely sell for, how competitive a given listing was expected to be, and to hit the "right" price. We were able to purchase a wonderful home in an ideal community that fit our needs perfectly in about 2 months.
Lastly, I found their partnership to be a great advantage in searching for a home. Having the two of them to work with meant the process revolved our our schedule since one of them was always available, whether to see a home on short notice, join for an inspection, or answer questions. And they were always well coordinated!
We were very happy with the service they provided and would recommend them to our friends." - Leslaw
"I had the pleasure of working with Ed and Tim on the sale of my condo in downtown Walnut Creek. Both Ed and Tim were professional, knowledgeable and extremely easy to work with. They made a naturally stressful process as stress-free as it can be!
I highly recommend using Tim and Ed for your real estate need and will be recommending them to my friends and family!" - Andrea
Buying or selling a home anywhere along the 680/24 Corridorāfrom Orinda to Clayton and Benicia to Danvilleāisnāt just a move; itās a significant financial decision. At the Massey Allen Group, we deliver a luxury-level real estate experience to every client, whether youāre purchasing your first home, upgrading to meet your familyās needs, or selling a signature property.

Your home is one of your largest assets, and our expertise lies in structuring transactions and negotiating with precision to maximize your results.
Before real estate, I spent years as a professional pilot, graduating in the top of my class from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and flying private jets for high-net-worth clients to six of the seven continents. In aviation, preparation, precision, and problem-solving are non-negotiable. Today, I bring that same discipline, systems, and attention to detail to every real estate transaction.
Helping Buyers Secure the Right Property
We know your biggest concern: buying a home and later regretting it. Thatās why we follow a proven three-step process:
Acquisition Strategy ā Every property requires its own approach. In competitive markets, itās about positioning you to win. In slower markets or unique circumstances, itās about understanding the sellerās priorities and structuring the offer to your advantage. In every scenario, we determine the right strategy to secure the property on the most favorable terms.
Portfolio Impact ā Is this the right home for your lifestyle, your current life circumstances, and your long-term goals? Just as importantly, how does it fit within your overall financial picture? We ensure your purchase strengthens your portfolio while protecting you from regret or financial loss.
Negotiation Excellence ā Once the first two boxes are checked, how do we secure the best possible price and terms? Our strategic, data-driven approach ensures you get maximum value.
Whether itās a contemporary home, a hillside retreat, or a custom estate, our process ensures your investment is both strategic and secure.
Selling for the Highest Possible Price
We know your biggest concern: selling and wondering if you could have achieved more. Thatās why we follow The Four Phases to Selling for the Highest Price Possible:
Preparation ā Optimizing your property to maximize appeal.
Price Positioning ā Setting the right price to create urgency.
Presentation ā Showcasing your home to stand out in the market.
Preservation ā Protecting your equity through negotiations and closing.
From architecturally significant homes to turnkey family residences, every decision we make in these four phases is designed to protect and grow your equity.
