I love Sonoma County and the Russian River area. With a long-term interest in affordable housing and in improving the quality of people’s lives, I am actively involved on a community level in social and cultural issues, in life transitions, and in issues related to aging. My life work is about making sure that you can have the greatest quality of life possible. I have sold the Blue Heron, The Pink Elephant & Patterson Point Preserve. This involved creating a grant with Sonoma County Agricultural & Open Space District and devising a loan plan for individuals in the community to provide the additional funds necessary to purchase this exceptional property. I am a creative thinker and am able to market and sell properties of many kinds. I also have worked on issues relating to water, septics, and riparian habitat in the Russian River area on both the county and state levels. Adventurous, curious, and open-minded with a background in trauma and disaster mental health, I work predominantly by referral, which means that I spend time making sure that you receive excellent care. I am NEVER too busy for you and for your referrals, and know how to go the extra mile for you. Now, let’s get down to business!
“Kyla is an outstanding Sonoma County agent. She is professional, knowledgeable, and insightful. She is available and responsive—she always answers her phone, replies promptly to emails, and is even available by text. Kyla has a really strong understanding of the local market and helpful connections. She’s resourceful and definitely an advocate for both buyers and sellers. She knows who to talk to when you need answers. What’s great about Kyla is that she knows her stuff and she makes it fun. Definitely recommend!”
SHE PROVED TO BE INVALUABLE TO US, CONSIDERING HOW UNIQUE PROPERTIES IN THIS AREA ARE.
“Kyla helped us buy a 2nd home in the Russian River area and we couldn’t have done it without her. She proved to be invaluable to us, considering how unique properties in this area are. Beyond just helping us evaluate, bid, and negotiate on properties, she provided us with a deep knowledge around local regulations (which are always changing in that area!) as well as her extensive network of contacts for services. She was always available to answer all my questions and discuss issues, and she proactively made sure I took care of everything I needed to in a timely manner. No pressure to buy at any time. This is not a traditional real real estate market, so you absolutely need the help of an experienced and well connected realtor to help guide you. Kyla would be a great choice for folks buying a home or investment property.”
