Gene Cain & Laurel Bollinger - Realtors

Living & working in the Sierra foothills since 1985 we offer personal, professional service. Laurel and Gene learned the backroads of the area together.

Gene began her career in real estate when she and her husband Scott Bollinger moved to the Sierra foothills in 1985 and bought their first home on splitable land in Meadow Vista. One land split led to another and another and eventually to a real estate license in 1992. Gene studied for her license when their 3rd child, Laurel Bollinger, was a baby and 28 years later Laurel did the same with her fi

rst child! Gene has been an Outstanding Life Member of the Placer Association of Realtors Masters Club every year since 1994. This represents the top 3% of agents in Placer County. Laurel is well on her way. Her first full year in the business, 2020, she too became a Member of the Masters Club. Laurel and Gene love where they live and enjoy sharing all there is to know about the foothill lifestyle with their clients. Working with Buyers and Sellers in the foothill communities is not just a one time job. They know they will run into you at the market, in restaurants, at events, on the trails…. They value the relationships formed with their clients and make every effort to treat every interaction they have with respect and professionalism. When they do see you again it is a joyful reunion of friends. They look forward to answering your real estate questions and being a source of information you can count on and trust. Let them know how they can help.

409 Live Oak Rd is officially closed. 🌿

53 years. That’s how long this family called this place home. And when it was time to move on, to be closer to the people they love most, it was our honor to walk alongside them through every step of it.

Real estate transactions are financial, yes. But they are also deeply personal. A home holds memories, milestones, and a lifetime of ordinary beautiful moments. We don’t take that lightly.

To our sellers, thank you for trusting us with something so meaningful. Wishing you so much joy in this next chapter. 🤍

If you’re thinking about making a move and want an agent who will show up for you the whole way through, we’d love to connect.

That Meadow Vista property just got more interesting. 🌲
The price shifted to $665,000 and everything that made it special is still there. Hardwood floors, stone fireplace, and that tucked-in-the-pines feeling you can’t fake.
If it’s been on your radar, now’s a good time to take a closer look.
