The scene pictured below is along the Eastern slope of the Sierra Nevadas, not far from the little town of Genoa, Nevada in beautiful Carson Valley.  The Sierras look quite different in late summer, or a dry year, than in winter when they are snow-capped or covered.Genoa, is the oldest settlement in Nevada.  It's about 45 miles south of Reno.  David Walley's Resort and Hot Springs is located not far from where this picture was taken.   For more information about historic Genoa, you can click on "Genoa History."

Market Summary Review all MLS listings in Johnson Lane. If you live in the Johnson Lane area of Minden or you are planning to buy a home in this area, you may be interested in the market summary below. The local market in 2013 saw a considerable rise in price after many years of price decreases. Not only is the median price up 20% from that of 2012 but the Sold to List % is also up from 96.3% to 97.8% which indicates a market with more buyers than sellers. Surprisingly, the number of homes sold is about equal and the days on market even rose (this may be related to short sales taking the place of bank owned homes - the short sales will generally have a much higher Days on Market). Take a look below for summary market information:   Johnson Lane 2012 2013 % Change Number of Homes Sold 12...

  Northern Nevada Real Estate   Smoke And Other Real Estate Adventures      Lisa Wetzel and Jim Valentine RE/MAX Realty Affiliates    Smoke And Other Real Estate Adventures     Mother Nature is a wonderful phenomenon. Living in the high desert and mountains we are afforded spectacular showings of her natural splendor on a regular basis. Whether it be the fury of storms, the beauty of sunsets with spectacular clouds, or simply the natural course of seasonal weather events throughout the year, in Northern Nevada we are treated to a steady stream of natural wonderment. Over the past few days we have seen smoke like few can remember. The density, intensity, and duration of this assault on our lungs and eyes has been impressive. One can only wonder what it is like closer to the source of th...

I was fortunate enough to be able to speak to the agents at Realty Executives in Gardnerville about Energy Efficiency and especially how the Energy Efficient Mortgage program can help their clients. FHA’s EEM program allows buyers or refinancers the option to finance energy efficient repairs. This program has been around a while but is underutilized. Homeowners that want a more efficient, comfortable, healthier, and more durable home are the perfect candidates for this program.  The agents at Realty Executives are not armed with the knowledge to assist clients in the Carson Valley with taking advantage of this easy option to energy savings. Energy improvements are the only improvements that will pay themselves back due to the energy savings. Homes with electric, oil, or propane heat are...

  Newsletter from Lisa Wetzel and Jim Valentine  RE/MAX Realty Affiliates  Gardnerville, Nevada 89410   Things To Anticipate For The Inspection   Most residential home sales today involve the services of home inspectors. The most common inspections are the pest and physical. The physical inspection will take 2-3 hours depending on the size of your home. It is amazing how often the deficiencies called out are the same house after house. Your agent can help you anticipate what will be called out so you can prepare for it in your offer negotiations, or remedy it before the inspections so it doesn't become an issue.   Broken window seals are a common item that can usually be identified by fogging between the panes. That is an indication of a broken seal which means the window must be repla...

Trees And Northern Nevada Real Estate It takes a long time to grow a tall maple or pine tree and they add value provided they are well located on the property and in good health.  Pine trees in the wooded parts of our Northern Nevada area can feel the stress of drought and many trees had a tough time getting through last winter because of the lack of water.  The forest goes through the natural cycle of drought, fire, and the resulting forest cleansing, but if you want to keep the trees on your property in good health you might want to bring in experts to assist you in a designing and implementing a health plan for them to help fight the bark beetle and other tree killing natural phenomenon.  Most of the trees on private property in our area were planted by a property owner along the way...
