The golden hour lasts
all summer long.

Summer in Gardnerville delivers warm, dry days and cool evenings — the kind of weather that makes every weekend feel like a vacation. With the Sierra Nevada as a backdrop, the region comes alive with outdoor recreation, community events, and the relaxed pace of life that drew people here in the first place.

Why Work With Us

The right agent changes
everything.

In a market this nuanced — where the right neighborhood, the right lot, and the right terms matter enormously — local expertise isn't optional. It's the whole game.

Buyer's Guide

Your questions,
answered honestly.

Everything you need to know — straight from Provision Test2, who lives and works here.

How do I get started buying a home?

The first step is getting pre-approved for a mortgage so you know exactly what you can afford. From there, we'll schedule a buyer consultation to understand your goals, timeline, and must-haves — then build a search strategy around your priorities. There's no cost to work with a buyer's agent; our commission is paid by the seller.

Is now a good time to buy in Northern Nevada?

Northern Nevada continues to attract significant in-migration from California, driven by Nevada's zero state income tax, lower cost of living, and quality of life. While interest rates have moderated from historic lows, long-term buyers who plan to own 5+ years typically fare well in this market. We're happy to share current market data for specific areas you're considering.

What is a buyer's agent and do they represent me?

A buyer's agent represents your interests exclusively in a real estate transaction — not the seller's. We negotiate on your behalf, review contracts, coordinate inspections, and guide you through closing. In Nevada, a buyer's agent commission is typically paid by the seller, so there is generally no direct cost to the buyer for representation.

Where does the listing data on this site come from?

All property listings displayed on this site come directly from the Northern Nevada Regional MLS (NNRMLS) database, updated regularly throughout the day. We are a participating member of NNRMLS and display data under the Broker Reciprocity program. Data is deemed reliable but not guaranteed — all details should be independently verified.

How much do I need for a down payment?

It depends on your loan type. Conventional loans typically require 3–20% down. FHA loans allow as little as 3.5% with qualifying credit. VA loans (for veterans and active military) can require zero down. We can connect you with trusted local lenders who will walk you through all your options.

What are property taxes like in Nevada?

Nevada has one of the lowest effective property tax rates in the nation, approximately 0.55–0.75% of assessed value depending on county. For a $500,000 home, you're looking at roughly $2,750–$3,750 per year. Nevada also has no state income tax and no inheritance tax, making it attractive for buyers relocating from high-tax states.
