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.

"Margo was amazing to work with throughout the whole process of buying my first condo in North Star! She went above and beyond throughout the whole process, she even drove over the same day to take video of the condo I was interested in and I ended up buying it! I highly recommend Margo for anyone interested in buying in the Truckee area."

"There are not enough wonderful things we can say about Margo! We are first-time homebuyers and found ourselves in a time-crunched situation in this low-inventory market. Still, she found the perfect house for our family and guided us through a multiple-offer/multiple-counter situation with knowledge and confidence. She truly looked after us throughout the process and helped every step of the way, even holding our fussy baby and entertaining our wild toddler so that we could focus! There is no one better to help you through such an important time. Thank you, Margo, for helping to make our dream come true!"

"Margo and her team were amazing to work with. She came recommended by friends of ours who just bought a house. She is very professional and knowledgeable about the Tahoe Donner area and the local market. We were impressed with her attention to detail and that she understood what we wanted in selling our house. Margo managed every aspect of the sale for us including inspections, repairs, and working with contractors. When the house went on the market it showed very well and sold quickly. We live out of state, and Margo did a great job communicating all of the listing details in a timely manner. We would strongly recommend her."
