We will also set up a digital signing service so all paperwork can be handled on your phone or laptop. We have developed a highly successful Five Step System to guide you through the entire selling process to ensure you receive the best price and terms for your home.
Step 1 – Expert Pricing We will prepare a comprehensive market analysis to determine the current market value of your home. ▪
First, we perform extensive market research looking at all the details and current market trends. Since no two properties in Incline Village are exactly the same, we will consider all factors such as location, size, degree of remodeling, view and many other factors.

Accurate pricing plays a significant role in avoiding long days on the market and will ensure you receive the best price possible for your home.

Step 2 – Expert Preparation of Your Home Preparing your home for the marketplace is a critical component of our service. Our goal is to make your home look like a model at a minimal cost, in order to obtain the maximum price. ▪ ▪
▪
Homes that are in tip-top condition always have more buyer appeal. We will carefully go through your home and make suggestions for simple repairs or touch-ups you can do. Some homes benefit from being professionally staged. A staged home sells for 6-8% more than one that is not staged and sells 40% faster. We will arrange a private consultation with a professional home stager to provide recommendations. We can arrange for our recommended service providers to take care of maintenance and repair items. There is no need for you to be present. We can handle it all for you!
Step 3 – Expert Marketing for Your Home Our fully customized marketing plan goes into action as soon as we are ready to launch your home on the marketplace*. Refer to our “Lakeshore Realty’s Marketing Package”. ▪
We use professional photographers to create gorgeous, high-quality photos for use on-line and in all print materials to entice potential buyers to see your home in person.
▪
Your home will be advertised on over 300 real estate websites including the big 3 sites, Zillow, Trulia, and Realtor.com to give you maximum exposure to all potential buyers.
▪
Your home will receive repeated exposure to other agents to keep it top-of-mind.
▪
We also incorporate print advertising in the local weekly newspaper, The Tahoe Daily Tribune and Homes and Land Magazine.
▪
We will provide a high-quality, full-color custom property brochure for your home with professional photos and expert copy describing the unique features.

Peg’s Raving Fans ▪ Peg was there every step of the way! We were so lucky to have Peg Augustus there by our side when we sold our townhouse last fall. Her knowledge of Incline Village and expertise in the field was top notch. Selling and buying a home can be overwhelming and she was there every step of the way to make sure things were done right and to our personal satisfaction. Within just a few weeks she had our place ready to sell and marketed to the public. It sold within just a few weeks after that! I would highly recommend Peg for both buy or selling a place in Incline Village and thoroughly enjoyed working with her. - Kelsey Porter ▪ The best real estate agent we’ve ever worked with! Peg Augustus helped us sell our Incline Village townhouse in record time for an excellent price. She is probably the best real estate agent we’ve ever worked with. Her support network included outstanding staging expertise, cleaners and sources for getting rid of unwanted leftover items. We were involved in a property exchange and Peg had us in contact with competent people who made the exchange go smoothly and on time. I would very highly recommend Peg Augustus for your Lake Tahoe real estate needs. - Katherine Knapp ▪ Smooth and painless! Over the last three years we worked with Peg both selling and buying our homes. We listed and sold our house within weeks due to the marketing and quick follow up Peg provided. The negotiation was smooth and painless, and the closing was trouble free due to Peg’s professionalism. We recently purchased a larger home after an extensive search over a several year period. We closed on our house with a view this past March. Throughout the process Peg was resourceful, knowledgeable, focused on our list of amenities and her patience was admirable. I would highly recommend Peg if you are looking to buy or sell a home in the Lake Tahoe area. We not only have a realtor for life we have a friend for life. - Walter and Lorna denDaas ▪ Responsive and diligent! Peg had amazing energy and focus on selling our property quickly and competitively. When issues arose, she was responsive and extremely diligent in walking us through the sales process. We would recommend her highly! - Barry & Lynn Mainz

▪ She handled every detail! Peg Augustus helped us sell our Tahoe vacation home. She was extremely professional and responsive. She provided excellent services to ready the home for the market since our family does not live in town. She handled every detail from cleaning to staging and kept us informed every step of the way. She gave us excellent advice in pricing the home all the way through the actual sale. She was always available and went above and beyond to help us close a successful transaction, in record time, no less. Peg is someone you can trust and rely upon to get the job done. - Marion Schales
▪ The outstanding advertising and home staging led to an abundance of immediate showings. After reviewing several Realtors, I selected Peg Augustus as my REALTOR based on her years of experience and knowledge of the area to sell my home in Incline Village. In order to determine the listing price of my property, Peg provided me with an extensive, well prepared evaluation of similar properties that had been sold in the area. After reviewing her evaluation, I felt very comfortable with the listing price that I had selected. At no time was I pressured by Peg to list my property at any given price. The outstanding advertising and home staging led to an abundance of immediate showings. Because of this, my home sold within 3-weeks of it being listed. - Randall Carrera ▪ Smooth and effortless! My wife and I have had several real estate transactions with Peg. Her vast knowledge of the area along with here understanding of our needs and wants made for a smooth and effortless experience. Peg goes that “extra mile” when she represents you. We were kept informed throughout the process and never had to worry. Peg is a very professional, experienced, and friendly individual. We not only consider her our “best real estate agent”, but also our friend who can call anytime. We would, without question, recommend Peg Augustus for any real estate needs. - Bob and Jeanette McKnight ▪ The best agent bar none. Peg was our purchase and sales agent for the same property. We bought the property through her in 2009 and sold the same property through her in 2015. She has a tremendous amount of local knowledge. If you are buying or selling properties at Incline Village, she is the best agent bar none. - Ivan & Irene Koon ▪ She went out of her way! Peg is very knowledgeable of the Incline market and most importantly for us she is very patient and let things move at a pace we were comfortable with. It took a while for us to find the right house, and when we did she was very helpful in dealing with the seller’s agent. Peg also went out of her way to help us find and schedule various contractors to take care of some outstanding issues and remodel. This was really the third time we used Peg; first to buy a condo, then sell the condo and now buy a house. We could not recommend her more. - Jay and Suzanne Simon
