Buying a Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home
Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.
Consultation
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things, like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls, can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.

Testimonials
"Margo did a great job negotiating for us for the purchase of our home. She was very responsive and knows the area well. She was able to connect us with professionals to answer questions we had pertaining to a remodel of the home after the close of escrow. I highly recommend her."
-Zillow, Client
"Margo is a gem! My husband and I strolled into an open house on a whim and walked out of there with someone we immediately trusted. I was impressed with her honesty, knowledge of the area, love for the community and passion for helping us find our home. She is also incredibly patient! She always reminded us that the right house will come along and encouraged us never to settle. Margo is someone I would recommend to my family."
-Zillow, Client
"I would give Margo six stars if I could. She is by far the best real estate agent I’ve ever worked with. She is knowledgeable, responsive and on top of the total process. She does the extra things that make the sale happen."
-Zillow, Client
"Buying a vacation home solo is a little daunting. Even though I'm a residential real estate agent in Sacramento, Truckee is a completely different playing field. Margo was absolutely amazing! And I knew she would be. She made this process so easy! I sat back, let her do the negotiating, inspections and final walk through. The deal was efficient, smooth and seamless. I already knew Margo was a rock star, but she took this transaction to the next level. Thank you, Margo, for making a 7-year dream come true!"
