Welcome, Kathy Irving, to Coldwell Banker Grass Roots Realty (CBGRR)!  “We are so excited to be able to announce Kathy joining our company.  Kathy’s friendly demeanor, positive attitude, good moral and working ethics are a true fit with the rest of our team at CBGRR,” says Broker/Owner, Diann Patton.

Kathy is looking forward to her new career as Sales Associate and learning the ropes of the real estate industry, contracts and the power of connections.  Following in the footsteps of her grandmother, a Coldwell Banker Realtor for over 40 years in Virginia, Kathy comes with a wealth of experience as a former business owner, trained in horticulture and landscape design.    She knows that planning and attention to detail are required to satisfy her clients to get it right – from the start!  She is committed to help her clients find their perfect home through diligence and on-going follow-through, far beyond the transaction.   

Kathy is the third generation to have lived in this community.  From Rough and Ready to the Ridge, Kathy knows the micro-pockets of the area to help her clients. “I am so excited to start my new career with Coldwell Banker Grass Roots Realty.  I’ve been so impressed with the quality of people and training opportunities available for seasoned or new agents.  I am emerging into a dynamic, professional field with so much support and so many resources to help my clients make smart decisions.”  

Growing up in a military family, Kathy lived abroad in her grade-school years and developed a love of history.  After college, she back-packed for a year in Nepal, Malaysia, Costa Rica, Peru, Bolivia and Germany.  She moved to Nevada City with her mother and started a garden business, specializing in landscape design.  After many years of affiliation with the Wayne Brown Correctional Facility, Kathy was successful in implementing a Seed of Life Garden, constructed by her and the inmates.   Kathy has been a guest speaker at the California Horticultural Therapy Association and Gather The Women.  Kathy loves to read historical fiction and philosophy, travel, sew quilts, pencil sketch and build mini-gardens, but her biggest love is her dog, Hutch, or “Angel Dog”.
