Main Street Meets Wall Street: Why You No Longer Have to Choose
When you’re buying or selling a home in Pleasanton or the Tri-Valley, you’re often faced with a choice: the warm, personal service of a local, Main Street real estate brokerage—or the advanced tools and reach of a Wall Street-backed corporate powerhouse.
At Elation Real Estate, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose.
Local Roots, Big-League Resources
Elation Real Estate is proudly based in Pleasanton, California, and we live and breathe the Tri-Valley lifestyle. We know the neighborhoods, the schools, the hidden gems, and what makes this region so special. Our team is deeply connected to the local market, and we’re passionate about providing personalized, high-touch service to every client we work with.
But behind the scenes, we’re powered by Side, Inc., a leading real estate brokerage and technology company headquartered in San Francisco. Side partners exclusively with top-performing, independently owned real estate companies like ours—giving us access to the tools, systems, and support you’d typically expect from a national firm.
So while we’re firmly planted on Main Street, we’ve got Wall Street-level strength behind us.
The Best of Both Worlds
Here’s what makes this partnership so powerful: according to RealTrends, Side ranked #1 in California for both sales volume and transaction sides. In 2024 alone, Side-powered brokerages closed over $23 billion in real estate transactions and helped more than 23,000 buyers and sellers.
That means when you work with Elation Real Estate, you’re getting:
As a bonus, you’ll be supporting a locally owned business, well known for giving back to many local community organizations, such as Kids Against Hunger, The Valley Humane Society, Goodness Village, Shephard’s Gate and many more.
