Start the conversationThe story
A Bay Area career, brought up the hill.
Roxanne, a proud California native, began her journey by moving from Southern California to San Francisco, where she fully immersed herself in the city’s vibrant offerings. She has since transitioned to Nevada County, embracing the natural beauty, rich history, and tight-knit community of this scenic region. From Nevada City’s charming downtown and Grass Valley’s historic sites to hiking trails, local vineyards, and artisan markets, Roxanne enjoys the unique blend of small-town charm and cultural vibrancy that Nevada County offers. Now, she’s a knowledgeable guide to what makes both areas thrive, day and night.
With a diverse background spanning hospitality, operations, project management, and real estate development, Roxanne brings a wealth of experience and a genuine passion for helping people with every transaction. Her holistic approach and meticulous attention to detail ensure that each step of your buying or selling journey is handled with the utmost care.
As an active member of the community, Roxanne is well-versed in Nevada County’s annual events, from music festivals and farmers’ markets to local art shows and holiday celebrations, all of which create a lively, connected atmosphere. She’s passionate about introducing clients to the area’s treasures, whether it’s a quiet lakeside spot, a unique dining experience, or a local craftsman’s studio.
Roxanne is a proud affiliate of the National Association of Realtors (NAR), California Association of Realtors (CAR), and Nevada County Association of Realtors (NCAOR), further solidifying her commitment to excellence in real estate.
Off the clock: hikes around Empire Mine and Nevada City, picnics at Tahoe in summer and Apple Hill in fall, tasting rooms up the wine corridor, and evenings with her husband or friends checking out a new restaurant or a show in downtown Nevada city.
Three things that aren't negotiable.
No script, no slogans. Just the parts of the job most agents have stopped doing.
You get me. Not a team.
Most agents at this level have grown a team to take their place. Roxanne stayed deliberately small. One client at a time, hers from the first call to long after the keys change hands.
I always answer my phone.
Communication is critical in a home-buying or selling process and Roxanne takes this very seriously. On a Saturday. On a holiday. In the middle of an inspection two transactions away, Roxanne will ensure she makes time for you.
Hustle and professionalism from a high-stakes, competitive market.
Before the Foothills, Roxanne worked in San Francisco real estate. She brought the urgency, the pacing, and the negotiation instincts of the Bay Area and has applied that to to great success in the Foothills.
Specialists, by design.
Roxanne works best with four kinds of clients — and is honest when a fit isn't there.
First-time buyers
We start with what you actually need to know, in plain English, on your timeline, before we look at a single home. This may be the most emotional purchase of your life, and Roxanne is prepared to hold your hand through every step.
Bay Area transplants
Roxanne anticipates what you may not be considering: well quality, septic stability, 4 season weather, and which towns will feel like home faster. The transition is the work she's done in her own life.
Luxury buyers & sellers
Discreet network. Professional photography. International marketing reach. Concierge service. The full Sotheby's apparatus for properties in the luxury tier.
Multi-generational families
Parents, kids, in-laws, a workshop, room for a future ADU. We look at lot configuration, dual primary suites, and the parts of zoning other agents skip because the property has to work for a decade, not a season.
