About Katherine

I've enjoyed over 21 years as a Realtor in Nevada and Placer Counties, with numerous happily closed clients, many of whom have transformed into long standing friendships. My goal is to help YOU sell or buy a property in the fastest amount of time with the least amount of stress, and thus earn your continued loyalty, business, and referrals for life. Along with my CA Realtor License, I have also earned the following advanced designations: The prestigious Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE), Certified Premier Service Consultant, Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE), Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES), Electronic Professional (E-PRO). Additionally, I have a BA in Communications with a Minor in Business Administration from Chico State University. Among my strengths is a commitment to continuing education, which translates into a valuable asset to my clients when successfully negotiating their Real Estate transaction in this ever evolving and competitive marketplace. I'm highly skilled in all aspects of Real Estate, with a special ability to quickly pinpoint winning properties. I'm a marketing expert, smoothly and efficiently selling properties for the best possible price and terms. In addition to owning my own home, I'm a Real Estate Investor and I personally manage two of my own rental properties. I think owning Real Estate makes sound financial sense in any economy, and is the cornerstone of long term wealth and financial security. I believe in giving back to my community, so in my spare time you'll find me volunteering with non-profit organizations. I'm a volunteer broadcaster on community radio KVMR 89.5 FM Nevada City (www.kvmr.org), and have served as a CA Sta te Parks volunteer River Ambassador for the South Yuba River Citizens League (SYRCL). Additionally, I lend a hand at The Grass Valley Center For The Arts, For Pet's Sake and The Lake Vera Neighborhood Association. Since I live in such a beautiful area, rich with lakes, rivers and trails, you may also find me hiking with my husband Art, and enjoying our rural home with our furry family. I'm happy to share my knowledge of our local trails with you. Whether you're a Buyer or a Seller, I'm ready to be of service to you today. I'll make you my number one priority and utilize my excellent skills, combined with lots of hard work, dedication and determination to help you realize your Real Estate goals. Please contact me now, and let's get started making your property dreams come true. References available upon request.
