Meet Greg
Gregory D. Blake brings a rare blend of residential real estate expertise, commercial experience, entrepreneurial vision, and proven performance to the Tim Smith Real Estate Group, the #1 Team in California for Coldwell Banker.
Known for his reliability, honesty, and trustworthiness, Greg works primarily in residential real estate while also bringing valuable experience in select commercial transactions and investment opportunities. His track record speaks for itself: he has never taken a listing he did not sell — a reflection of his persistent, principled performance.
For Greg, real estate is never just a transaction. He takes the time to understand each client’s goals, lifestyle, concerns, and long-term vision, allowing him to provide thoughtful guidance that extends well beyond the sale. Whether helping buyers compete in a fast-moving market, preparing a property for a successful launch, navigating complex negotiations, or advising on commercial investments, Greg is known for being strategic, patient, communicative, and deeply committed to protecting his clients’ best interests.
Clients value Greg not only for his market knowledge and professionalism, but also for his ability to make the process feel personal, informed, and well-managed. From helping families relocate across the country to guiding sellers through preparation, marketing, and escrow, Greg brings a steady hand, creative problem-solving, and a high level of care to every step of the process.
Prior to joining the Tim Smith Real Estate Group, Greg served as President of Blue River Advisors in Irvine, California, where he was a licensed real estate broker in four states and worked primarily on second-home and resort projects in Mexico, Hawaii, Las Vegas, and Utah.
Greg’s innovative mindset has led him to build entrepreneurial ventures across the technology, media, and real estate industries. He earned his MBA from the Marriott School of Management and holds a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from the University of Utah. He also brings five years of experience in government relations, where he helped craft and advocate for legislation — giving him a strong ability to read, interpret, and understand complex bills and policy matters.
In addition, Greg is the author of six books related to various aspects of residential real estate. Complimentary copies are available at homeprobooks.com.
