If you are looking for assistance finding rentals in the greater Walnut Creek areas including Pleasant Hill, Martinez, Concord, Clayton, Danville, San Ramon, Alamo and Lafayette, Moraga, and Orinda areas, I suggest contracting one of the large real estate offices and ask for an agent who has experience with rentals. I do not have any recommendations at this time. The agents I recommend specialize in sales and usually do not work with renters because of time constraints.

Here's contact info for some of the local companies.

Coldwell Banker Real Estate Orinda 925-253-4600 (Lamorinda/Walnut Creek)
Pacific Union Real Estate Orinda 925-258-0090 (Lamorinda area/Walnut Creek)
Coldwell Banker Real Estate Walnut Creek 925-935-7100 (greater Walnut Creek)
Coldwell Banker Real Estate Danville 925-837-4100 (Danville area, Walnut Creek)
Pacific Union Real Estate Danville 925-743-9330 (Danville area, Walnut Creek)

One very popular site for renters in our area is Craigslist. Go to:

An excellent resource for rentals in Contra Costa County is the Sunday edition of The Contra Costa Times Newspaper (their website has a link but doesn't have all the most recent rentals. Those can be obtained only by looking in the newspaper.)

To find individual agents to assist you with rentals, I would recommend calling one of the large local real estate companies. Here are some choices:
