Located at 2001 Addison Street, Suite 300, the co-working Regus office is at the heart of Berkeley, which is well known nationally and even globally for its progressive lifestyle, forward thinking, ecological standards, academic achievement, scientific exploration, free speech and the arts.

The population is an appealing mixture of new and long-time residents. The rate of civic involvement is high, and the democratic process is celebrated. Berkeley is also one of the best recyclers in Alameda County, diverting over 75 percent of its waste away from landfills and towards recycling, composting and re-use. Berkeley is serious about public transit, and takes pride in the fact that every Berkeley resident is within ¼ mile of a bus stop.

Though geographically small, Berkeley boasts an eclectic mix of architecture and culture, from the beautiful hills to the picturesque marina. It is easily accessible from Albany, Emeryville and North Oakland, Piedmont, Temescal and Montclair, and Zephyr’s new business center is situated ideally to serve those areas. Zephyr agents were responsible for nearly $125 million in sales volume in the East Bay over the past two years, prior to Zephyr even having a physical office space.

“Our client base continues to grow and expand, and it is exciting to augment our reach to meet their needs,” commented Matthew Borland, Zephyr’s Chief Operating Officer. “This new innovative, co-working environment allows adaptable space for the changing workplace and fosters cross-industry networking and relationships.”

Zephyr recently expanded into Burlingame to accommodate the growing number of clients and agents in San Mateo County. Two years ago Zephyr opened its full-service office in Greenbrae to service the growing demands in Marin County, and it continues to be one of Marin County’s fastest-growing real estate firms.
