What others are saying about Liza

Liza is an exceptional choice for anyone interested in buying or selling in Tahoe-Truckee. I was impressed from the very first conversation I had with her, all the way through the end of the sale. She sets high standards in her work and recognizes what top-quality, professional results should be. Her experience and history throughout the communities of the area left me feeling confident in her knowledge of the market and added a great deal of value. It was important to me to find an agent who would represent the property well and prioritize their client's best interest. Liza did not disappoint! She is truly someone you can count on, whether you are 5 miles away or 500 miles away. I highly recommend her!

I have known Liza for over seven years. She is without doubt the best Realtor, my wife and I have worked with, over the last thirty-five years. Liza puts the client first, second and third. We have done a number of transactions together, and each one was successful. Having recommended Liza to a number of friends, they've all experienced the same partnership, and success. I'm happy to take a reference call.

Neil H.

We were of course completely satisfied with Liza's efforts in both our buying and selling processes. Liza has a wealth of knowledge of the market, comps, and have sold many homes in the area. She combines that knowledge with a real personal care for her clients. Which was essential for me moving from NC and not knowing much about the area. Communication was also essential, and she was there any time to answer any questions for us. Our experience was superb, enough so that we recommended you to our dear friends who recently sold in Lahontan.

Tammy K.

We worked with Liza when we purchased our home in Lahontan five years ago. Liza helped us explore various communities in Truckee and Tahoe generally. Liza really took the time to get to know us and our children to help advise us on selecting the community and home that was best for our family. Liza is incredibly knowledgeable and provides terrific guidance and advice throughout the process. Lahontan was a perfect decision for our family, and we could not be happier. We are incredibly appreciative of Liza introducing us to Lahontan and helping to guide us to the perfect home for us.

Anthony and Carolyn M.

Liza was instrumental in helping us to put our Lahontan home on the market and explore new opportunities to build again. She was delightful to work with, always available to help and had a breadth of knowledge about the local real estate market and the Lahontan community. She was easy to work with, essential in helping us navigate through the sales process (both selling and buying our new property) and very personable. I highly recommend her!

Don and Marie G.

I have purchased 3 properties and rented 2 properties through Liza. She made each experience nice and easy. With her access and spot-on assessment of market values, and her negotiating talent, it is simply not possible to find a better broker in Tahoe - PERIOD!
