I recently had the great pleasure in helping my clients Matt and Denise Gallegos find their perfect vacation house in South Lake Tahoe. The house that they decided on was a bank owned foreclosure on a large sunny lot in the Meyers area.
Here is what Matt and Denise had to say about their transaction:
“The customer service provided by Brent Johnson and Chase International was beyond the call of duty. Purchasing our first vacation home, Brent not only called us everyday, but he did a lot of work for us that we were not able to do ourselves because we live some three hours away! We met out of the blue while on vacation in South Lake Tahoe and he drove us around all day answering questions and showing us every home available in our price range. No pressure or hassles, but genuine customer service. I would recommend Brent Johnson to my family and friends because of his character, integrity, and honesty”
Matt and Denise Gallegos
Matt and Denise were able to buy real estate in South Lake Tahoe due to the fact that it is now “a buyers market”.
I was very happy to receive this letter from Matt and Denise. It shows that I stick to my motto that ”I provide million dollar service for all of my clients!”
“The Donald”

Every day clients ask me if I think that the real estate market will keep going down. To answer this question, I look at the local market statistics, listen to Real Estate analysts, and give my personal opinion. Prices for Real Estate in South Lake Tahoe may or may not go down any more, but Real Estate mogul Donald Trump says “Now is the Time to Buy!”.
Last week “The Donald” was on Good Morning America, and gave his opinion on the Real Estate market.
“If you want to buy a house there’s probably never been a better time,” Trump said. “It’s a tough market. It’s a horrible market,” he said. But “this is the absolute time to buy. It’s not the time to sell.”
According to Trump, the golden real estate rule of location, location, location still applies.
I can’t think of a better location than Lake Tahoe! Lake Tahoe is a resort destination area with year round activities that draws people of all ages and interests.
Donald Trump has made millions on real estate in his career, and is definitely a reliable source for real estate advice!
I personally do not know if we are at the “bottom” of the market, but I know we are close. We are close enough to the bottom that I am putting my money where my mouth is. I just put a seven unit apartment building in South Lake Tahoe in escrow for myself. I feel that now is the time to buy, and that is what I am doing!

I recently had the pleasure of helping first time home buyer Thia Mullikin purchase her first house. First time buyers are finding some great deals on Real Estate in South Lake Tahoe. The house that Thia was able to buy was twice the size of the house that she almost bought in 2006. Thia had been looking at homes in South Lake Tahoe for almost three years, and decided that now is the time to buy. Thia also said that it was well worth the wait!!!
Here is what Thia had to say about her home buying experience with my wife Jill and I:
“As a first time home buyer I was very inexperienced in the details, follow up and continual negotiations involved in buying a home. Further, in a place like Lake Tahoewhere there are many Realtors to choose from, I fortunately had the luck and pleasure of working with Brent and Jill Johnson. This team not only was available at my convenience to view listings, but also truthful and ethical in helping me make a decision to buy my first home. The process was seamless, the negotiations and follow up prompt, and the personal relations delightful. As a Tahoe local I would recommend the Johnsons to any of my friends or family who need help buying or selling a home.”

I had the great pleasure of working with the homeowner Geoff Beasley during this transaction. Here is what Geoff had to say about Chase International South Tahoe Realty and myself:
Working with Chase International - and Brent Johnson in particular - has been a real pleasure. Brent truly lives by his motto, “We’re here to make all of your transactions as smooth and easy as possible.” Brent is eager, helpful, and willing to do whatever is needed. I have no hesitation recommending him to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the Tahoe area. When we sell our next house, we won’t consider anyone but Brent.
