Build Your Business. Without Building It Alone.

A boutique Truckee-Tahoe brokerage that invests in your growth, your marketing, and your brand, without taking over your identity.

The best agents in Truckee-Tahoe don't need to be managed. They need real support behind them. Big brokerages promise marketing that never materializes, smaller shops offer culture without infrastructure, and either way you end up doing everything yourself. Timber & Tide closes that gap: the independence of running your own business, backed by the marketing, technology, and mentorship of a brokerage genuinely invested in your success.

WHO THIS IS FOR

We are growing on purpose, adding just two to three driven agents who want to build something lasting. You may be a fit if you are:

  • Independent, but tired of doing everything alone
  • Serious about building a long-term business, not chasing the next deal
  • Drawn to luxury positioning and a higher standard of client service
  • Ambitious enough to see another level ahead, and maybe your own team one day

This is not a fit for agents looking for easy leads, daily supervision, or a place to coast.

WHY TIMBER & TIDE

We bridge two worlds: local Truckee-Tahoe expertise and deep Bay Area connections, and we specialize in second-home and luxury clients who value clarity, education, and straightforward service. We are not trying to be the biggest brokerage in Tahoe, we are building a respected, marketing-driven luxury brand and a small team that grows together. You work directly with the founders, Chris and Carlynne Fajkos, with no corporate layer in between.
