About

Greetings everyone; those of you I know and those of you I’ve yet to meet!

My name is Rob Godar and I thank you for joining me on my journey as I share my long-time passion for Silicon Valley Real Estate.

My path to being in business for myself started at a young age. I am a proud Third Generation California native, growing-up in Sunnyvale. It was here that I began my entrepreneurial journey. I was a paperboy for both the Sunnyvale Daily Standard and the San Jose Mercury News. Up before the crack of dawn, and out collecting subscriptions long after the sun went down. I have fond memories of playing in the Metro Little League at Raynor Park. After graduating from Archbishop Mitty High School and attending both DeAnza and SJSU, I ran my own consumer electronics business for twenty years, learning much about business ownership and about the world of “sales”.

It was during this time of my life that I developed my passion for real estate. Initially, I became a homeowner, back when double digit interest rates were the norm. Talk about scary! I then began looking at real estate everywhere I went….on vacation, on my days off and even when out on dates with my now wife, Linda. We have been real estate investors for over 30 years and I’ve been an agent for over 12 years.

What Clients Are Saying

I don't know where to start with Rob! This was my first time being on the house search and Rob was extremely helpful, walking me through the process from start to finish. I could not thank him enough for the patience he demonstrated with me - I really didn't know what I wanted when we started, but he listened to my likes and dislikes from each place and quickly (and easily) honed in on what I was really drawn to. He is a wealth of knowledge and, while I got a bit hesitant putting my first couple of offers in, he was able to advise without putting any pressure on me -- he always had my best interest in mind. 

Rob is very experienced and knowledgeable within real estate. However, I think it was his counsel, patience, dedication, and constant positivity that I appreciated the most. He made everything much less stressful than I anticipated and I cannot be more grateful. 

Rob and his team are great and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone who has real estate needs! 

Thank you Rob!

Wow! What can I say about Rob Godar and his Team?! I saw this house on the market, called Rob and was given the chance to see a few days later. He finds out we can write an offer and it's done that day! His suggestions on what to offer got mine accepted as a first time home buyer with no problem! He really knows his stuff and does not pressure you into making a decision based off what he tells you! 

The team works quick and efficient! I had no troubles dealing with the paperwork! Easy, fast, hassle free! I had a great experience working with Rob, Linda, Jennifer, Tammie and Kristin! 

Thank you all! I definitely recommend Rob Godar and his team for any of your real estate needs! 

Go to Godar!

Rob Godar was amazing as we navigated the real estate world for the first time! He walked us through everything so we truly understood what was going on. We always felt like Rob was advocating for us as buyers and we knew he had our best interest in mind. At the end of the day we trusted Rob, and that is huge as first time home buyers. Sleeping came easy during this whole process because we knew Rob would make sure we got the best deal and the best house. We can't thank Rob enough for everything he did for us. He is a part of our family now!

Lindsay Swoboda

Rob helped us buy our first home and we couldn’t have asked for a more experienced, professional, and trusted advocate. He coached us through the process of narrowing down neighborhoods and selecting a house that was going to meet our needs and work with our budget...no small feat for inexperienced home buyers! Rob was always available and has continued to support us as we get our home ready to move in. I would definitely recommend Rob to anyone looking to buy a home.

Jennifer Welch

Rob helped our mom get her home after divorce. She had been renting for many years thinking she would never get a home of her own . Rob got her through the process and even gave up some of his commission to make sure she got this home . This home meant everything to her and Rob made it possible. Sadly, she passed away. We went through my Mom's paperwork and found Rob's information and contacted him. He came right out to meet with us. He remembered my Mom. Being the Executor of my Mom's Estate, he and a probate lawyer he knew got us through the entire process. Rob made sure the home was prepared and showed beautifully. I never had to think twice about anything . He had it handled . Looking for a Realtor in top of his craft - Rob Godar.

Lisa Weiss

Rob did an amazing job on helping us prepare for the sale of our home and then was right with us through every step of the way. He has been the best agent we have ever worked with.

Alan Crapo

My wife and I sold our house with the help of Rob Godar. Rob listened to our needs and went above and beyond for us to reach our goal. He worked tirelessly to get the job done. We would highly recommend Rob if you want someone to get the job done the way you would like. Thanks Rob

Rene Montez

Rob just helped us buy our first home!!! We could not be happier! He helped us through everything and always made sure we were happy and calm through the process, because buying a home can definitely be tough! He talked us through everything and always made sure we understood what was going on and what the next steps were. We could not be happier that our first buying experience was with Rob and Jennifer!!! 
Thank you so much for everything!!! 
Highly recommend!!!!!

Recently we called upon Mr. Godar to represent us in the sale of a condo at 20 Ryland Park Drive, San Jose. We impressed upon Mr. Godar the urgency of the sale, however, the desired time line seriously conflicted with a personal timeline of Mr. Godar and a long-planned family vacation. Rather than delay the listing for several weeks, Mr. Godar and his team began immediately (the same day!) to establish a network of essential activity to list the unit, conduct an open house and entertain three offers all within a week. The unit was in escrow within eight days, including several phone calls from Mr. Godar while on vacation. His team handled the day to day processing of inspections, essential repairs, and closing in a thorough and professional manner. The closing occurred on time and without complications. Our experience with Mr. Godar and his team was exceptional, and would not hesitate to call upon this team in the future.

David and Leatha Cooksy

Rob was a pleasure to work with. We were having difficulty working with a 1031 exchange. He referred us to the people who were able to assist us, and then found us our dream house in Aptos CA. His follow through and thorough understanding of what we needed was impressive. Escrow closed with no problems, and he was definitely knowledgeable and with us from start to finish. We also worked with Linda and Jennifer in his office, and they were beyond helpful. I would not hesitate to use Rob Godar for all or our Real Estate needs.

Carol Davis

Rob did a great job for me. I had a very stressful situation with a couple of siblings. Rob navigated through the situation and gave me invaluable advice on what changes and updates were needed to market the house properly. Once the house was on the market, it sold very quickly. Thank you, Rob!

Nora Dahl

Rob was great from beginning to end, and we couldn't have asked for a better agent for our first home purchase! He started with a warm welcome: Introducing us to his team and inoculating us to the buying process. He gave us some homework (ranking the features of our perfect home), then it was off to scout properties. He was with us week-in week-out with any questions or viewing requests we had; very accommodating to our schedule. He helped us through the offer strategy, and helped us get a great offer accepted in a tight market. During closing he kicked into the highest gear to ensure we performed due-diligence and closed on-time. 10/10 and I look forward for the next time I have cause to buy or sell and work with Rob!

I have known Robert Godar for fifty years. He has been a coach, brother and a person of high integrity. Referring a friend to buy and/or sell a home is something very important for me to do. When Rob started his carrier a friend was moving to the Sata Clara Valley and she was introduced to Rob. He treated her as he does everyone with respect. He will find out what you need and want in your Real Estate 🏡 transaction and will not stop until he has ✅ this for you.

John Hopkins

Rob is a true professional on one hand — and he’s like the helpful next door neighbor on the other. He handles everything, from recommending painters, to handymen. With every problem, he has an answer, and a well qualified person to do each job. I highly trecommend him. He sold my house for a very good price — in two days. Excellent!

Karen Viger

I have been pleased to know Rob for many years. Rob has provided me a wealth of knowledge, guidance and support with respect to my complicated real estate transaction. There is no one more conscientious, patient and courteous than Rob. I do not hesitate in my recommendation of Rob for your real estate purchase or sale.
