About Better Homes Realty
In 1964 a group of independent real estate brokerage offices in the Walnut Creek, California, area came together to do business as Better Homes Realty. The company began adding offices throughout Contra Costa County, California, and in 1975 Better Homes Realty obtained a franchise license to expand the concept in California. The company has been franchising nationally since 1981.
