Highly recommend Judy! She was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process of selling our house. Judy is incredibly detail-oriented—she walked us through every single step and made sure we didn't miss a thing. She also took a huge weight off our shoulders by coordinating all the repairs and inspections.
When it came to the open house, she was super proactive, actively engaging and following up with every potential buyer. Thanks to her hard work, we got a great price for our home. If you're looking for a top-notch agent, Judy is the one!
Doug is hands down the best realtor anyone could ask for. I sold a house, and bought a house with Doug. Both times the process was incredibly positive. He's incredibly reliable, thoughtful, resourceful and thorough.. and he knows the market in the Tri Valley area. I sold my house in 5 days, and bought my home within my timeframe, both with satisfactory results. Zero issues through it all. Doug took care of every detail on my behalf, including arranging a walk through and providing assistance through the entire process. He's solid, and he really cares about his clients. I couldn't recommend him enough.
Thank you so much, Jonali, for your thoughtful review and for trusting me with both the sale of your Ironwood/Ponderosa home in Pleasanton and the purchase of your new home in Danville.
Helping clients successfully coordinate both a sale and a purchase at the same time is one of the most rewarding parts of my job, and I'm so glad we were able to sell your Pleasanton home in just five days while also finding the right home for you and your girls within your timeline.
It was a pleasure guiding you through each step and handling the details along the way so the process felt as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Your kind words about my communication, attention to detail, and commitment to my clients truly mean a great deal.
Thank you again for placing your trust in The 680 Group at Compass. I hope you and your family make many wonderful memories in your new Danville home, and I'm always here if you need anything in the future.
Doug Buenz | The 680 Group

Doug was a fantastic partner in selling our home. He helped guide and project manage all of the pre-sale updates we made to the home. He and his team created a great go-to-market package including a custom website, extensive photos, videos, interactive maps, the works!! The higher end market in Pleasanton is definitely interesting right now, but with Doug's help, we had an extremely successful sale. Highly recommended!!
Thank you for the input Scott. It was an absolute pleasure assisting you and Pam!

I had a wonderful experience working with Judy. As a first-time home buyer, I wasn’t familiar with the process, but Judy made everything feel clear and manageable from the very beginning.
She was always professional, responsive, and incredibly patient, taking the time to explain every step in a way that was easy to understand. What could have been an overwhelming process felt smooth and well-guided because she was always one step ahead and made sure I knew what to expect.
Her knowledge of the Bay Area market and attention to detail really stood out. I always felt like I was in good hands, and she never hesitated to give honest advice that helped me make better decisions.
Most importantly, Judy genuinely cared about helping me find the right home, not just closing a deal. I truly appreciate her dedication and guidance, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience as a first-time buyer. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Doug Buenz at 680 Group was a pleasure to work with and played a key role in both selling our home and helping us purchase a new one (in 2025). He is highly experienced, well-connected in the local real estate community, and knows the market extremely well.
He negotiated behind the scenes to help us secure the home we wanted and coordinated closely with the mortgage and loan teams to keep everything moving. When we hit a serious snag late in the loan process, Doug stepped in and worked through it, which ultimately allowed us to close.
He was consistently responsive, met with us several times, and followed up with all parties involved. His professionalism, market knowledge, and commitment to seeing this through made a meaningful difference for us. We highly recommend Doug for all of your real estate needs.

Judy is truly the best agent I could have asked for. She helped me purchase my very first home, and 12 years later, she guided me through selling that same home with the same level of care, expertise, and dedication.
For the sale, Judy went above and beyond by helping me plan and manage renovations first so the home would attract the right buyers. Throughout the entire process, she was incredibly proactive, detail-oriented, and always on top of everything—so much so that I never had to ask for follow-ups. I had complete peace of mind knowing I could trust her with every detail.
Judy is professional, responsible, and genuinely cares about her clients’ best interests. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better agent. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Working with Doug made the experience significantly less stressful than it could have been. We were under a tight timeline to relocate with a <25 day escrow. Doug helped ensure everything was in order, checked in with the insurance company, the mortgage lender, and our family office / financial advisors to make the process as smooth as possible. Everything went as expected and ended up quite boring which was the best outcome in this situation.
Brent, it was important to me that everything stayed on track and stress-free for you. Glad to hear the process went smoothly and ended up in the best way possible!

We recently worked with Doug to purchase our dream home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, Doug stood out because he truly listens. He took the time to understand what we wanted and never tried to push us in any direction. His communication was always clear, straightforward, and honest, something we really appreciated throughout the entire process.
We chose Doug over two other agents because he came across as the most knowledgeable and the strongest local expert. That proved to be absolutely true. His insights, calm approach, and professionalism made the home-buying process smooth and stress-free.
If you’re looking for an agent who is trustworthy, patient, and genuinely committed to helping you find the right home, we highly recommend Doug.
Yang, your words mean a great deal. Hearing how the process felt clear, calm, and genuinely tailored to your goals is something I value deeply. Matching you with the right home was a meaningful journey. Grateful you chose to place your trust in me. Finding your dream home alongside you was truly rewarding.

We listed our home with 680 Doug Buenz Group. Doug and his colleague, Crystal Jackson, efficiently facilitated all aspects of preparing our home for sale. They provided valuable suggestions for marketing of our home. The house sold and escrow closed within two weeks of listing. We were extremely satisfied with the services we received.
Brad, your feedback brings a lot of satisfaction. Working with you and seeing the preparation come together so seamlessly was a real team effort. Knowing the sale moved quickly and closed within two weeks is a testament to the strategy, timing, and commitment on all sides. It was a pleasure guiding your home to the finish line.

Doug did a fantastic job representing us and our home. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Pleasanton and all it has to offer. We were gone a lot while our house was on the market and he helped us out many times with things that needed to be done. He’s on top of everything and follows up on everything in a quick timeframe. In the end, he secured great buyers and a great price for us. Thanks so much, Doug.
Doug was fantastic in selling our home in Pleasanton! His calm demeanor and clear confidence clearly has come from hundreds of transactions, which told us from start to finish, "he'd been there before", which set the tone for a smooth process. We knew we had a challenge in front of us as we'd tried to sell 6M earlier with another qualified agent however, when we began anew, Doug handled virtually ALL the details, from staging, marketing, the negotiation process - which was a bit complicated - and ensured we as well the buyer aligned for a positive experience. We are very pleased we selected Doug and would highly recommend him in listing your home as well; he even helped us make our move to our new home in town that much easier a well, and a rent back which we needed as this was a "big move", downsize.
We worked with Doug to sell my parents' home of 43 years. After years of seeing him successfully sell in their neighborhood, they had long planned to work with him when the time came to sell. The market has changed so much in the interim, but Doug did not disappoint. He convinced my mom to update her beloved traditional English style decor for modern buyers' tastes and wound up selling above asking. Doug easily connected us with all the expert contractors we needed, handled arrangements to update the house for us after we moved out of town, and facilitated a quick sale.

Tegan, it was a pleasure guiding your parents through such a meaningful sale. The long-overdue updates were a game changer, and it was amazing to see it all come together for an above-asking sale. Everything went smoothly, and this one’s definitely one for the books!

We were thoroughly impressed by the service that Rob and Doug provided. Their approach is very personalized and we felt that they genuinely cared about us, and our move. They really do go "above and beyond" Imagine my surprise when Rob told us we didn't need to take the day off of work to meet contractors, HE would take care of all of that for us. Robert was punctual, professional and reliable. Communication was also outstanding. We were always kept up to date on where we stood in the process of selling our home. Robert also had the additional task of helping us find our forever home, which was out of the area. He became an expert on the area (which had very little inventory) and made miracles happen, sending out postcards and meeting with local agents. His hard work paid off and we bought our dreamy, lakeside home!
With Rob and Doug's stellar negotiating skills, we were able to sell our home and receive multiple offers over asking price! We would recommend Robert and Doug to everyone we know!
We recently had the pleasure of working with Doug and CJ to sell our home, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Some concrete feedback:
1. They are very data-driven. Early in the process, they would come armed with spreadsheets showing market comps, and would be able to speak in detail about each house on the market (even ones they were not representing). They helped us set a pricing strategy that balanced aggressiveness with realism.
2. Logistics: they coordinated everything from staging to photography with amazing precision. The marketing materials such as photos, video, copywriting, and listing website were top-tier and clearly stood out in a competitive market.
3. Responsiveness: every message, question, and concern was addressed quickly and thoroughly, no matter the hour.
Ultimately, we sold our house in a very challenging market for a price we liked, and it was largely thanks to their efforts!
Harsha, your words mean a lot. We’re so glad the data-driven strategy, detailed market insights, and full-spectrum logistics made a real difference in the process. You were a fantastic partner throughout, and your trust allowed us to stay sharp, responsive, and focused on the goal. Getting the win in this market took teamwork and we’re proud to have been in it with you.
