About Marsha
I've lived in the Penn Valley area for most of my life. I know which streets flood after a heavy rain, which neighborhoods have the best sunset views, and which schools have the strongest programs. That kind of knowledge doesn't come from a textbook — it comes from living here.
When I became a real estate agent, I did it because I saw how many people in this community were being underserved — rushed through transactions, given generic advice, or left to figure things out on their own. I wanted to be the agent I wish I'd had when I bought my first home.
That means showing up on time. Explaining things clearly. Pushing back when a deal doesn't look right. And treating every client — whether they're buying a condo or a mountain retreat — with the same level of care.

Client Stories
"Marsha made what could have been a stressful process feel completely manageable. She listened to what we actually wanted — not just what we said we wanted — and found us a home that checked every box. We couldn't be happier."
"We sold our parents' home after they relocated, and Marsha handled everything with grace and professionalism. She priced it right, staged it beautifully, and had multiple offers within days. She went above and beyond during a difficult time."
"As first-time buyers, we had a million questions — and Marsha answered every single one without making us feel impatient. She walked us through inspections, negotiations, and closing like we were her only client. Which, honestly, is how she treats everyone."
