Services
I opened Ormsby Real Estate in 2002 after working at Hooper Real Estate for six years with a true Tahoe real estate legend, my friend and mentor Gordy Hooper. My wife, Roxie, and I began working together in 2006, when she joined me from Chase International Real Estate (where she was the company's top producer).
As the old adage goes, a lot of people come to Tahoe for the winter, then stay for the summer. And it's true: Skiing in the high-elevation, snow-drenched peaks of the Sierra Nevada is like nowhere else on Earth. People travel from all over the world to experience the deep powder, steep mountains, and legendary resorts that make up wintertime in Tahoe.
Low / High Elevations: 7650 ft. Location: To reach the Barker Pass trailhead, take Hwy 89 4 miles south from Tahoe City or 4 miles north from Tahoma, then turn (right if coming from the north and left if coming from the south) onto Blackwood Canyon Road at Kaspian Campground. The trailhead is 7.5 miles from the turnoff.

I couldn't be more thrilled to have this dynamic duo, Roxie and Bob managing our property. Between their skill sets, their inside scoop on all things Tahoe and their commitment to doing the job right, has truly made a world of difference for my husband and me. Once Roxie and Bob took over our rental property in Tahoe City, our bookings increased right away and for more return each night. More importantly, our home has never been so well maintained and running so smoothly. Whatever your needs are, these two are very transparent, honestly and knowledgable and will tell you how they can help

My husband and I recently bought a condo using Ormsby Real Estate. It was an easy, quick, stress-free and all around great experience. Both Bob and Roxie provided the information we requested in a timely, prompt manner. We had no surprises. We felt we had the information we needed to make all of our decisions. We are very pleased with our purchase.

Roxie helped us buy a home in Carnelian Bay in 2006. We were impressed by her knowledge and skill immediately. After we bought the cabin, we tried renting for a few years but had little success. Roxie agreed to take over the marketing and management of our property, more as a favor than anything else. The results have been phenomenal. Every weekend that we do not choose to use it ourselves, she rents it to guests for us. She manages everything including screening guests, repairs and upgrades, guest interactions, and helping guests during emergency situations such as power outages during snowstorms

Roxie and Bob are amazing realtors, neighbors, and human beings. We have been fortunate enough to own a vacation home in Dollar Point and live near them. They have supported us whenever we have needed it. They are always willing to bend over backwards to help us out.
We cannot count the times they have lent an extra hand or pair of eyes to help. Bob has plowed our driveway, given us firewood, helped with repairs and even saved our son from a bear scare! Roxie has given us support through advice on interior design, renting our home, as well as numerous referrals in the Tahoe area for upgrades and

I've used their services for the purchase and sale of several homes in Tahoe. They're always offered excellent professional advice and their service has been second to none! Furthermore, as an out of town owner, they've always been quick to help me with my property, should the need arise. I highly endorse them!

Bob and Roxie helped us buy a house in Tahoe City in 2010. It was a short sale and the transaction went very smoothly and professionally. We ended up getting most of the furniture for only a small amount with Roxie's help. They have also been our property managers since we owned the house. Roxie manages it and does a fabulous job. I trust her completely and also hired her team to sell my other house in Truckee. They sold my house within 30 days. I am very happy with not only her excellent and professional service but also her dedication to our vacation rental. I highly recommend Roxie and Bob.

The Ormsbys are wonderful! I have thoroughly enjoyed the interactions and professionalism of both Bob and Roxie. They helped a family friend sell her house quickly (as she was in ill health) and were so thoughtful to schedule potential buyers around her medical appointments. Thank you both so much for all of your hard work!
