Cush Real Estate - Oakland, California

Anne Rutherford Živojnović

David was instrumental in selling our Oakland home for well above asking price and in record time. His deep knowledge of the local market allowed him to accurately price our home and attract multiple offers. His team of professionals, including designers and contractors, efficiently and cost-effectively put the final touches on our house to be able to showcase it on the market as the stunning property it is.

David's guidance throughout the entire process was invaluable. He was always available to answer questions and provide expert advice. We were initially hesitant about making certain improvements and the pricing strategy, but David's recommendations ultimately paid off. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and highly recommend David and Cush Real Estate to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Oakland area.

We had a wonderful experience working with David and his team at Cush! David helped us buy our new home, and we also had a seamless experience partnering with him to sell our previous home. Doreen and her design team, along with Juan and his team had amazing ideas about updating our old home before putting it on the market, and we trusted in the process and it paid off. Even in an unpredictable real estate market, we closed quickly and well above asking.

David and his team helped us sell our house in the time frame we talked about and his team ended up exceeding our expectations in terms of how well they assisted us to ready the house and were able to market it. We ended up getting a great price. We deferred to his team in terms of how to improve parts of our house to make it more appealing, staging, pricing strategy, and even dealing with vegetation and trees to improve the curb appeal. The end result was spectacular! The designers on David's team (Erika and Sarah) were fabulous to work with and were super dedicated to making everything perfect. I can't recommend the Cush team more highly.

We are extremely fortunate to have worked with David Higgins and his team at CUSH. While we were suddenly hit with an unfavorable real estate market, David worked tirelessly to ensure that we were able to find a buyer who not only loved our home as much as we did, but who was able to present us with an acceptable offer. He clearly knows the market and has many tools of the trade at his disposal. Would certainly recommend him and his team to anyone looking to sell their home.

We chose the right team! Besides great service from start to finish, the marketing of our home was truly outstanding. We had a tight timeline to get our house ready for sale and Cush worked long hours to meet all the deadlines. I would happily recommend David Higgins and Cush Real Estate, whether you are selling or buying.

I had the pleasure of working with Lauren at Cush when purchasing our home in September 2022. Lauren exceeded our expectations and was a dream to work with. She never pressured us to a decision and gave us support and attention even though our budget was not as high as many Bay Area home buyers. She provided thoughtful insight and we couldn’t be happier with our new home. Not only did we get your home under asking we also closed in record time. Thank you Lauren and Cush! Highly recommend!

We feel that Dave Higgins had the best sales strategy of the realtors we interviewed. He was very well organized, articulate and thorough, so we chose Cush for the sale of our Crocker Highlands home. The design team prepped and staged our house for sale in a month (which including some remodeling of an outdated kitchen) and the results were beautiful. When mortgage rates moved against us before the first open house, Dave gave us the facts and did not pressure us to continue forward. We decided to move ahead, and the house sold well above the listed price, with no contingencies and a short escrow. We recommend Dave as someone who knows our neighborhood, has a solid plan, and the means to carry it out. He takes the time to explain this to his clients. We couldn't have had a better experience!

Cush Realty caught our attention through their consistently impressive sales in our neighborhood, led by David Higgin's team. What stood out was their knack for transforming properties beyond the typical house flip, adding an aesthetic appeal that resonated with buyers and drove prices above market value.

After considering several local realtors, David's genuine belief in our neighborhood's value and his pragmatic yet optimistic upbeat approach set him apart. His track record of achieving above-market prices, even during challenging market conditions, instilled confidence in us.

Despite being in the midst of a hectic move, David and his team, particularly Doreen O'Reilly, handled every aspect of preparing our home for sale with ease. Their efficient coordination and attention to detail ensured a smooth process from start to finish.

The result exceeded our expectations, thanks to the expertise and professionalism of the Cush Realty team. David delivered on his promises, demonstrating a level of competence and efficiency that left us thoroughly impressed. We're grateful for David and the CUSH realty team's outstanding service and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others.
