A Family-Owned Higher Standard
Better Brokers Realty Group is a family-owned, Granite Bay–based luxury real estate brokerage serving the greater Sacramento region since 1999. Led by second-generation broker Darla Lyons and third-generation broker Jake Lyons, our brokers have closed 500+ transactions and $200M+ in sales — with white-glove service, elite negotiation, and a record of never losing a client deposit.
Three Generations, One Standard
Real estate has been the family business for three generations. That legacy shows up in the way we work: deep market knowledge passed down and sharpened over decades, paired with modern, data-driven strategy and AI-powered marketing. The result is a brokerage that knows the Granite Bay and greater Sacramento market from the inside out — and treats every transaction like it carries the family name.
We built Better Brokers around a simple idea: clients deserve a higher standard. That means honest guidance instead of empty promises, white-glove marketing included on every listing, and the contractual precision to protect your largest asset. In 25+ years, we have never lost a client deposit — a track record that reflects how seriously we take that responsibility.
Whether you're buying your first home, selling a luxury estate in Granite Bay, or building wealth through investment property, you get the same thing: a true partner and advocate, from the first conversation to long after the keys change hands.
