Diana Smith
REALTOR®
My father was a real estate investor and he started teaching me about buying and selling homes when I was 10 years old. I have been an investor myself my whole life, so real estate has always been an important part of my life! I am a native of the Bay Area and a UC Berkeley grad. I honed my business and negotiation skills as a sales executive for the IBM Corporation for over twenty years before becoming a full-time real estate agent and broker.
What Clients Say About Diana
“Diana was wonderful! Really listened to what I wanted and together we found the perfect home. She had great insight into the market and even with 11 offers, she made sure mine was the most competitive. Very dependable, experienced and trustworthy. Highly recommend!”
Ashley W.
“Diana listed my condo in Walnut Creek. I interviewed several agents and I am VERY glad I chose Diana! She did a wonderful job and every aspect of the transaction went smoothly. She is incredibly responsive and hard working—she went above and beyond the call of duty to be sure that every detail was taken care of quickly and professionally.
She gave me excellent advice and is a strong negotiator. I always felt confident that she had my best interest in mind as we negotiated price, repairs and terms. She has a great attitude and was invariably pleasant, positive and thinking one step ahead of the process. I am so happy with the process and the outcome of my sale. I recommend Diana wholeheartedly.”

“Diana was instrumental in helping my family and me to find our new house. She gave us a lot of local knowledge of the areas we visited (and there were a lot of them), demonstrated an excellent feel for my family’s needs, and was excellent with communication even at what normally would be unreasonable hours for many people while being quick to follow-through on requests for stuff.”
Angela C.
“Diana is a very bright, personable, friendly and caring person and a true real estate professional.
She listed and sold my Alamo, California, home. She was right on with so many decisions. One of the most important was the careful analysis of the market and the spot-on pricing of the home. I was amazed that from the time of listing to the offer and acceptance was three days. I had four quality offers and she was fully engaged and accessible throughout the whole process. For example, she helped me evaluate each offer and then negotiate favorable terms for the best one.
I found her to be a very experienced and skilled agent. I learned that she has had a successful career in real estate not only as an agent, but as a branch manager and real estate agent trainer. I am confident that you will be as happy as I was that you chose her as your real estate agent. I’m certain that she will try her best to meet your wishes and needs. Diana knows how to get the results that you are hoping to achieve.”
