A trained salesperson and negotiator, Ricki has earned herself The Huntress moniker because of her dedication to getting her clients the best bargain. She has leveraged her knowledge of the area and used it to help countless people find their dream homes since she began her career.
Ricki has spent her life exploring the region and developing an unparalleled knowledge of it, making her uniquely qualified to help people find their perfect homes there. “I am a quick study. Once I understand what my clients’ goals and key attributes are for their vacation or primary home, I will do everything in my power to find properties on or off the market until I find the perfect solution,” said Ricki in a recent interview. Ricki has extensive investment property education, which helps her see angles other people may miss. “I personally change the market in neighborhoods in a positive way,” she adds. “When they say it can’t be done, I say just watch me work!”
Ricki is no stranger to hard work and innovation either. Before getting into real estate, she held various positions in both the public and private sectors. She studied at Arizona State University and worked in the entertainment business for 10 years. She’s also an avid entrepreneur with interests across different industries, which has equipped her with creativity and innovative business development skills. Ricki puts these skills to good use in her practice, serving clients from the Truckee-Tahoe area and other national and international customers. As a real estate veteran, there are several things she wishes people would know.
First, Ricki says things would be smoother if clients and realtors worked together harmoniously. In the search for the perfect deal, she advises clients to listen to your realtors because they are on your side. In her case, the goal is always to get the client the best service at the earliest convenience, and she believes that’s the same for other realtors as well. For realtors, Ricki says the goal should be customer satisfaction because that’s the best marketing tool. “Don’t be greedy,” she advises. “Properties are only worth what someone is willing to pay.”
As her business grows, Ricki remains committed to excellence and pleasing her clients. Her goal is to expand further and continue offering her clientele “the miracle of finding the perfect property.”
