To the north, the Russian River Valley beckons with kayaking, tubing, redwood hikes, and, of course, acclaimed wineries.

Gateway to Wine Country & Beyond

Living in Petaluma means you’re at the crossroads of Northern California’s best destinations. Head 30 minutes south into Marin County, with its Golden Gate access to San Francisco, or drive north to discover the heart of Sonoma and Napa Valley wine country. Whether it’s wine tasting, exploring the arts, or simply soaking in scenic beauty, Petaluma’s location makes it all possible.

Laura was outstanding, she found us buy the home of our dreams went above and beyond helping us sell, we were downsizing from a larger waterfront home and she has a solution for absolutely everything, liquidating furniture, staging, and even helped us finalize a few outstanding construction projects in record time! I could not say enough good things about her, she is amazing!

Her knowledge of the area and market was invaluable, but what impressed us most was her integrity, patience, and genuine care. Laura exceeded our expectations, turning what could have been a stressful process into a truly positive experience. Thank you, Laura, for going above and beyond—we are so grateful and highly recommend you."

-Marsha & Jim

Laura is excellent! Very professional and knowledgeable in every aspect. She helped my husband and I sell as well as buy and I could not have been more satisfied with her customer service, negotiation skills, and thoroughness. She is a full service realtor, she helped me stage my house and really showcased it so that we received multiple offers and sold it even sooner than we thought possible! Simultaneously, Laura found us the perfect home by the beach with a view we have dreamt of our whole lives and within our budget! She gave us so many insights on the market and guides us through each step seamlessly. She is a true professional and I would gladly refer her to anyone looking to buy or sell forever more!
