David Kucera, 
Owner/Broker

DRE # 00616896

David Kucera is a licensed California Real Estate Broker with Valley Vista Properties and member of the Fresno Association of Realtors and Clovis Chamber of Commerce. A real estate broker since 1978, David founded Santa Clara Properties in Palo Alto, California, and is also a member of the Silicon Valley Association of Realtors in Cupertino, California.

David is an owner and co-founder of Valley Vista Properties, started in Fresno in 2004 as a real estate company that continues to be family-owned and operated to this day. It has expanded over time from representing buyers and sellers of real estate to adding a state of the art professional property management division to aid owners of investment properties.

He started his real estate career in the San Francisco Bay area with creative innovative approaches for buyers to own residential property in the high-priced San Francisco Bay area. He established an equity sharing program to enable unrelated buyers to purchase residential property through an equity sharing arrangement (combining an investor with an owner/occupant), a highly successful feat that was featured in the San Francisco Chronicle. In addition to the equity sharing program, David offered a down payment assistance program, which again helped many families to own their first home.

Through Valley Vista Properties, David has been a licensed real estate mortgage broker, helping guide many buyers of residential property through the often-complex mortgage loan approval process. He continues educating prospective buyers about the myriad of loan options for residential buyers including both owner/occupant buyers and investors.

David holds an undergraduate degree from University of California, Davis, a Master of Science in Math from San Jose State University, and a Master of Science in Operations Research from Stanford University. Additionally, he has taken advanced real estate courses and earned the Graduate Research Institute (GRI) designation from California Association of Realtors.

He is married with children and grandchildren and resides in Clovis, California.
