In 1983, a family found 8.93 acres near Chicago Park and never left. For over forty years this land was theirs — the lake, the waterfall, the mornings on the deck, the summers the grandkids still talk about. Now, for the first time, it's available.

At the heart of the property sits a 2-acre private lake fed year-round by Clipper Creek with its own depth-control system. A custom waterfall built so naturally into the hillside you'd swear it was always there — it has its own switch. A natural spring. Clear heart redwood siding on the main residence. Nearly nine acres of Sierra Foothills land with the kind of canopy that makes everything underneath feel like a secret.

This is the kind of property that cannot be recreated. The land, the water, the history — this specific combination is hard to find.

Open House this Saturday 11am–2pm · Sunday 11am–1pm Come walk the land. The waterfall will be on. Over 3,000 sq ft home plus a potential ADU to explore.

Honestly? I’m just grateful. 🙏

I get to do this job — and sometimes this job hands you something really special.

We’re actively working on getting this one to market right now. It’s in the Chicago Park area, and it has a 2-acre lake fed by a natural spring and a stream. I mean… just watch the video.

This home has so much upside. The kind of property that doesn’t come around often, and when it does, the right buyer is going to feel it the moment they see it.

If this looks like your kind of life — or you know someone who’s been dreaming about something like this — I’d love to connect!

🎉 Just closed — and this one was a masterclass in what actually wins in a competitive market.

It wasn't the highest offer.

It was the strategy behind it.

When you're up against multiple offers on a property that's already priced right, you don't get to play games. You don't get to low-ball. You don't get to "see what they say." The sellers had options — and they picked the offer that felt like a sure thing.

That's the lesson: in a competitive situation, certainty beats price almost every time.
A clean offer. Smart contingencies. Terms structured around what the seller actually needed — not just what was convenient for the buyer. That's not luck. That's what the right negotiator brings to the table.

And the result? My buyers are closing on a property with a million dollar view — for a lot less than a million dollars. 🌲☀️✨

Who you choose to represent you changes the outcome. Full stop.
If you're thinking about buying in the Sierra Foothills and you want someone who knows how to win — not just write offers — let's talk strategy before you fall in love with a house.

📲 DM me or give me a call. I'd love to be in your corner.

Just Closed | Grass Valley, CA

Some transactions are straightforward. This wasn't one of them.
Out-of-state sellers. A fixer. A timeline that required everyone to show up and do their job with urgency. And a buyer who walked in, saw the opportunity clearly, and didn't flinch.

When all the right people are in the room — or on the phone, or across the country — and everyone is rowing in the same direction, you can get things done that might look impossible from the outside.

I'm grateful for every person who made this one happen. The buyers, the lenders, title — all of it. Deals like this remind me why I love this work.

Not every closing is a celebration. Some of them are a relief. This one was both.

If you know someone struggling with a piece of property and not sure what to do next — send them my way. I'm happy to talk through it.

So happy for my sellers who just accepted an offer from the right buyer — and this one is a great reminder of why experience matters.

Sometimes you have to wait for the right buyer. That's not a failure of the process, it's the process working exactly as it should.

As a listing agent, I pay close attention to every conversation — the questions buyers ask, the concerns their agents raise. You can tell within the first minute whether someone is the right fit for a fixer property.

If a buyer is already stressed about basic cosmetic work on a fixer, that's information. It's not about judging anyone — it's about knowing that the escrow will likely be spent trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, and that doesn't serve my clients or the buyer.

It's kind of like dating. If it's not a match, it's just not a match — and that's okay.

This time, we found our match. The buyer came in with a strong, well-aligned offer and the right mindset for this home. I'm so grateful for my clients and for a buyer.

Now we've got a solid team working together to get this one across the finish line. Every challenge that comes up, we'll face it together — and if there's a way to make it work, we will find it.

My advice... Be patient and wait for the right buyer.

Congrats everyone!

🎉 We’re in escrow on this Colfax gem — and I couldn’t be more excited for my clients!

This one was competitive — and I mean competitive. Multiple offers on a property that was already priced sharp from day one. The sellers came out with a strong list price, the market showed up, and it was game on.

So how did we win?

It wasn’t the highest price. It was the terms.

Sometimes you have to let the terms do the heavy lifting. Clean terms. Smart contingencies. An offer structured to give the seller the one thing they really want — confidence that this deal is going to close.Price matters, but certainty matters more.

Some houses sit. But the special ones? They’re competitive — and if you hesitate, they’re gone. You don’t get to circle back. You don’t get to sleep on it. Someone else is already writing their offer.

And sometimes you have to bend a little to get what you really want. There’s always a time to negotiate, but on the right property — the one that checks every box — you move smart and you move with intention. Getting into escrow on a hidden gem means you’re not spending months wondering if another one will come along.

And this one? It comes with a million dollar view — for a lot less than a million dollars. 🏡☀️✨

That’s the Sierra Foothills magic right there.

Thinking about buying up here? Let’s talk strategy to get what you want.

🚨 PRICE IMPROVEMENT — NOW $215,000 🚨
(Was $255,000)

😂 Don’t let the ugly house fool you… this lot is SPECTACULAR.

She’s rough. She knows it. We know it.
This little 576 sq ft cabin needs a full glow-up, a major overhaul, and probably a pep talk.

BUT… the land? The land understood the assignment. 😍

🌲 Flat, usable, private lot
🌊 A year-round creek running the entire length of the property
📍 Desirable Nevada City location — just minutes to downtown, trails, food, and fun

This is the kind of place where you build on, fix up, expand, and turn it into your own private creekside oasis.

If you’ve been waiting for a project with location, vibe, and serious potential… this one might be it.

💲 Now $215,000
(1.79 acres)

Message me for details or to come see her in person.
She’s got a great personality… and incredible bones. 😏

SOLD in COLFAX! 🎉

There's nothing I love more than helping first-time homebuyers make a wise decision that will change their lives—because buying my first home changed mine.

I'm thrilled to share that my clients are now proud homeowners of this perfect first home in Colfax property! But this isn't just about buying a home—it's about building a foundation for their financial future.

Together, we found a property with incredible potential. Not only is this their first home, but it's also positioned to become their first rental property and the cornerstone of their real estate portfolio. This is how wealth is built, one smart decision at a time.

Watching first-time buyers take this powerful step toward financial freedom never gets old. From our first conversation to handing over the keys, it's been an honor to guide them through this journey.

Congratulations to my amazing clients! You're not just homeowners—you're investors building your future. 🏡💼
