About

A neighbor first, a realtor second

I grew up in the East Bay and fell in love with Oakland's impossible charm — the hilltop views, the tree-lined streets, the communities that feel like extended families. When I became a real estate agent, I brought that same sense of place with me.

My approach is simple: I listen first, then I work. Every client gets direct access to me — not a team of assistants who don't know their name. I answer my phone, I show up on time, and I fight for your interests at every turn.

Whether you're selling a mid-century home on MacArthur or buying your first condo near Lake Merritt, I bring local expertise, honest communication, and a commitment to making the process as smooth as possible.

Client Stories

Hear from people who found their home with me

Lyric made what we thought would be a stressful process feel effortless. She knew exactly which homes to show us and which to skip — saving us time and heartache. We found our dream home in Rockridge thanks to her.

— First-time homebuyer, Rockridge

Selling our family home felt emotional, but Lyric approached it with both care and strategy. She recommended staging changes that made a real difference, and we had multiple offers within the first week.

As someone relocating from out of state, I relied heavily on Lyric's neighborhood insights. She sent me video tours, commute maps, and school ratings before I even visited — I felt prepared the moment I landed.
