I have sold homes on Tahoe's South Shore for 34 years, on both sides of the state line. I am licensed in California and Nevada, because the CA side and the NV side are two different markets on two different MLSs, and any approach that treats Lake Tahoe as one market gets your price wrong.
Banks and asset managers hire me to value and sell property here: broker price opinions, REO listings, institutional clients. When a lender needs to know what a Tahoe property is actually worth, they call me. That is the same pricing judgment I bring to your house.
