Real Estate Done Differently | Boutique Service, Big Results 

Who I Am

I bring over 20 years of real estate experience in various roles, plus a deep knowledge of building, development, architecture, and both traditional and digital marketing and design. I’ve sold and brokered over $75 million in real estate right here in our tiny, charming Calaveras County. For me, this isn’t just a career—it’s a lifestyle I live and breathe every day.

How It All Started

My real estate journey began as an investor in multi-family units while I was a fashion designer in Los Angeles—my second career after dipping my toes in tech (first as a nerd, then on the creative side). Those early skills set the stage for my real estate destiny. Later, I moved to Oregon to join my new husband, a man obsessed with restoring old buildings. We became a dynamic duo, buying and selling historic homes begging for a second chance. I got my real estate license out of necessity for our projects—and I never looked back.

It didn’t take long for everyone to notice I couldn’t stop talking about real estate. Family, friends, cab drivers, grocery clerks—even the barista at my favorite coffee house got an earful! My passion was undeniable, so I started helping others with their real estate adventures and haven’t stopped since. Eleven years ago, we moved to Calaveras County to chase our own dream: owning a vintage cabin on a ranch surrounded by the Sierra foothills’ stunning scenery.

How It’s Going

In 2018, I founded Land & Home Company, an independent small boutique brokerage, to practice real estate my way. I wanted to ditch the corporate franchise cookie-cutter models that make you, the client, feel like just another number. Real estate is personal—very personal—and it’s serious business too.

When I work with you, I’m handling one of your biggest assets. I don’t take that lightly. My goal is to lift the stress off your shoulders and onto mine, where it belongs. Yes, you’ll still have to sign a stack of paperwork, but I’ll try to make you laugh while we’re at it! I provide small-town service with a big-city back-end you’ll never have to worry about. I won’t hand you off to a transaction coordinator after we have an accepted contract—I’m with you every step of the way to the end and beyond, whether you’re buying a cozy cabin in Arnold, raw land in Angels Camp or selling a long-cherished vacation home in Murphys.

I’d love to chat about your real estate goals—drop me a line or stop by when you’re grabbing a coffee in downtown Murphys! (Fair warning: I might start doodling house floorplans on napkins mid-conversation—it’s my quirky way of dreaming up spaces for clients!) 

I can’t wait to meet you!

"Nicole came highly recommended from a friend who just purchased a property in the area. With this being our first purchase, it was great being able to meet with her to go over everything we needed to know beforehand so nothing in the home buying process was a surprise. Everything went smoothly, she helped us beat out other buyers for a highly sought after piece of land with a fixer upper on it and we cannot wait to start our renovations and eventually move in. I would recommend her to anyone!"

"Nicole did an outstanding job selling our land. We were amazed at the level of photography and topography detail she put into the ads. Even though this was a low cost land sale we always felt she was giving us top priority. She had the property sold quickly and without any hiccups! Highly recommend!"

  -Greg F., Client

"Wow! How refreshing to work with a true professional! Selling raw land is not always an easy thing to do. Especially one that you are particularly attached to and in the middle of a pandemic! Nicole's marketing plan drew attention from potential buyers locally as well as those who were drawn to the area specifically to consider this piece of land on which to build their dreams. Communication was better than I have experienced with previous realtors. She was there every step of the way to ensure that everything concerning the transaction went smoothly. Regardless of whether you are buying or selling your home, land or ranch, I highly recommend Nicole Goostree!"

  -James B., Client

"Nicole was fantastic to work with! After initially contacting another local agent that blew us off, we reached out to Nicole and she answered right away. She helped us navigate what has become a hot real estate market in the Arnold area. We were able to tour properties and eventually close on our place in just over a month. She is service-oriented and went above and beyond doing our final walk through when we were not able to make it. Our loan agent found her to be great to work with as well, which helped us have as smooth transaction."
