— About Real Estate Tahoe —

Local Expertise.
Backed by Data.

Lake Tahoe real estate moves fast and the stakes are high. Whether you are buying your first mountain retreat, selling a long-held family property, or analyzing a short-term rental investment, the outcome depends on who is guiding the process.

Real Estate Tahoe is the only data-driven brokerage in Lake Tahoe. We built our own platform: it pulls sales from all four Tahoe MLS feeds, counts each closing once, and matches every home to its short-term rental permit status, TRPA land coverage and real insurance cost. We pair that with boots-on-the-ground knowledge of every neighborhood from Incline Village to South Lake Tahoe.

We tell clients the truth, show them the numbers behind it, and protect their interests. That is the Real Estate Tahoe difference.

We publish the numbers we work from: a monthly market update and a quarterly market report, straight from the MLS. See how we sell homes.
