As Seen In
A HEAD FOR REAL ESTATE, A HEART FOR PEOPLE
Modern Greeks often use the term Meraki to describe what happens when you leave a piece of yourself (your soul, creativity or love) in your work. When you love doing something, anything, so much that you put something of yourself into it.

Her client-centered approach delivers outstanding service, whether you’re selling your home, buying a home, or investing.

She is very proud to be the “go-to” resource for all her client’s real estate needs.
With over three decades of sales experience, Rica continues to hone her skills for the betterment of her clients. She sought and received her Broker's License, Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES) designation, Certified Probate & Trust Specialist designation, and Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource (SFR) certification from the National Association of Realtors® (NAR). Rica is a firm believer that no one succeeds alone, and in her commitment to better serve others, she continually sharpens her skills and masters her craft with the guidance of a business coach. She has also begun to coach other Realtors on her best practices to help them succeed!

She is also the Chairman of the Board for Generations United, a non-profit organization that helps the under-resourced community in Redwood City. She enjoys volunteering at Kids Against Hunger and Fostering Wishes. She gives 10% of her income monthly to local and national non-profits such as Mission Church, The Alzheimer's Association, St. Jude’s and Susan G. Komen Foundation, just to name a few. When Rica is not helping her clients and others in her community, her favorite pastime is watching her son run track and play his guitar; and wine tasting and spending time with her husband & business partner, Rob.
