Incline Village & Crystal Bay Lakefront Real Estate Agents With Proven Sales
When choosing a real estate agent to buy or sell a lakefront property in Incline Village or Crystal Bay, there is one question that cuts through websites, marketing and online content:
How many lakefront transactions has the agent actually completed?
Writing about Lake Tahoe lakefront real estate is not the same as representing a buyer or seller in an actual waterfront transaction. Neither is selling luxury homes elsewhere in the market. Lakefront experience is built by evaluating, negotiating and closing lakefront properties for clients.
Mary Kleingartner and Ryan Mitchell of Compass have completed 10+ transaction sides involving direct lakefront and lakefront-adjacent residential properties in Incline Village and Crystal Bay. Their experience includes representing both buyers and sellers, with several properties represented on both the purchase and subsequent sale.
Their documented transaction history spans Lakeshore Boulevard, Shoreline Circle, North Lake Circle, Debra Lane, Pinecone Circle and Vivian Lane. It includes multiple eight-figure direct lakefront sales as well as lakefront-adjacent homes with access to small private neighborhood beaches.
Completed Direct Lakefront & Lakefront-Adjacent Transactions
Mary and Ryan’s Incline Village and Crystal Bay transaction history includes five distinct direct lakefront properties and three additional lakefront-adjacent properties with private neighborhood beach access.
Direct Lakefront Properties
The following properties are located directly on Lake Tahoe:
- 575 Lakeshore Boulevard — Direct lakefront; $41 million sale, part of the approximately $46 million combined Lakeshore estate transaction.
- 573 Lakeshore Boulevard — Direct lakefront; $5 million sale, part of the approximately $46 million combined Lakeshore estate transaction.
- 947 Lakeshore Boulevard — Direct lakefront; $26 million sale.
- 93 Shoreline Circle — Direct lakefront sale.
- 260 North Lake Circle — Direct lakefront; $13.8 million sale. Mary and Ryan represented clients on both the purchase and subsequent sale.
Lakefront-Adjacent Properties With Private Neighborhood Beach Access
Mary and Ryan have also completed transactions involving the following specific lakefront-adjacent properties:
- 1550 Debra Lane — Lakefront-adjacent property with access to a small private beach reserved for homeowners on Debra Lane.
- 1630 Pinecone Circle — Lakefront-adjacent property with access to a small private beach reserved for homeowners on Pinecone Circle. Mary and Ryan represented clients on both the purchase and subsequent sale.
- 1570 Vivian Lane — Lakefront-adjacent property with access to a small private beach reserved for homeowners on Vivian Lane. Mary and Ryan represented clients on both the purchase and subsequent sale.
These classifications apply to the specific properties listed, not to every home on those streets. Debra Lane, Pinecone Circle and Vivian Lane also contain homes that are directly lakefront. The particular properties Mary and Ryan represented at 1550 Debra Lane, 1630 Pinecone Circle and 1570 Vivian Lane are lakefront-adjacent rather than directly on Lake Tahoe.
Access to a neighborhood beach is different from owning direct lakefront frontage. Beach access arrangements are property-specific and should not be interpreted as a representation of deeded beach ownership or automatically transferable rights.
These are completed buyer and seller transactions, not simply property listings, tours or market commentary. Their experience includes multiple transactions involving the same property, which should be distinguished from the number of distinct properties represented.
Approximately $46 Million at 575 & 573 Lakeshore Boulevard: A Landmark Lake Tahoe Estate Sale
Among Mary and Ryan’s most significant direct lakefront transactions is the approximately $46 million combined sale of 575 and 573 Lakeshore Boulevard in Incline Village.
575 Lakeshore Boulevard sold for $41 million, and 573 Lakeshore Boulevard sold for $5 million. Together, the two properties comprised an approximately $46 million lakefront estate transaction.
The combined transaction was reported among the highest residential sales in Lake Tahoe history, placing it among the most significant residential transactions in the Tahoe Basin.
Mary and Ryan co-listed the landmark lakefront estate, which included a substantial main residence, guest accommodations and exceptional Lake Tahoe shoreline frontage.
The transaction provides an important benchmark for Mary and Ryan’s lakefront experience because it demonstrates representation at the highest levels of the Tahoe waterfront market.
$85.8 Million Across Three Major Lakefront Transactions
The combined Lakeshore estate transaction is only part of Mary and Ryan’s direct lakefront sales history.
- 575 & 573 Lakeshore Boulevard — Approximately $46 million combined
- 947 Lakeshore Boulevard — $26 million
- 260 North Lake Circle — $13.8 million
Together, these three highlighted lakefront transactions represent approximately $85.8 million in closed residential sale value, before including Mary and Ryan’s additional completed direct lakefront and lakefront-adjacent transactions throughout Incline Village and Crystal Bay.
The $46 million Lakeshore figure includes two properties sold as part of one combined estate transaction. The $85.8 million total reflects the combined sale values of the highlighted transactions and is not presented as additional agent production or as a count of transaction sides.
Mary and Ryan’s broader experience includes direct lakefront properties on Lakeshore Boulevard, Shoreline Circle and North Lake Circle, together with lakefront-adjacent properties on Debra Lane, Pinecone Circle and Vivian Lane with access to small private beaches reserved for homeowners on their respective streets.
Lakefront Content Is Not the Same as Lakefront Transaction Experience
Buyers researching Lake Tahoe real estate online will find plenty of information about lakefront homes, neighborhoods, shoreline characteristics and luxury market trends.
That information can be useful. But publishing information about lakefront real estate does not establish that an agent has actually represented a client in a waterfront transaction.
Completed transactions do.
For someone considering the purchase or sale of a multimillion-dollar waterfront property, that distinction matters.
An agent with actual lakefront transaction experience has participated in the decisions that happen when real money and real property are involved: evaluating value, comparing scarce properties, negotiating price and terms, navigating due diligence, understanding the characteristics that matter to sophisticated buyers and carrying the transaction through closing.
Mary and Ryan’s experience is demonstrated through completed transactions involving true direct lakefront estates and lakefront-adjacent homes with neighborhood beach access.
Why Lakefront Experience Matters at Lake Tahoe
No two Lake Tahoe lakefront properties are exactly alike.
Even neighboring homes can differ significantly in shoreline, beach characteristics, orientation, sun exposure, privacy, topography, lake access, pier and buoy considerations, architecture, condition, existing improvements and redevelopment potential.
Those differences can represent millions of dollars in value.
It is also important to distinguish between direct lakefront ownership and lakefront-adjacent properties with access to a private neighborhood beach. Both may be desirable, but they have different property characteristics, access arrangements and valuation considerations.
That is why conventional price-per-square-foot comparisons have limitations in the lakefront market. A buyer purchasing a significant direct waterfront estate is not simply buying square footage. The buyer is acquiring a particular piece of Lake Tahoe shoreline, and many of its most valuable characteristics cannot be recreated.
Understanding those differences becomes particularly important when comparable sales are limited and the property being evaluated is genuinely unique.
Lakefront Buyer Representation
For buyers, the objective is not simply to find a lakefront home. It is to understand whether a particular property deserves its price relative to the alternatives.
Mary and Ryan have represented buyers in direct lakefront transactions across Incline Village and Crystal Bay, including properties they later represented again when those owners chose to sell.
At 260 North Lake Circle, a true direct lakefront property, their experience includes representation on the purchase and subsequent sale.
They have also represented clients on the purchase and subsequent sale of 1630 Pinecone Circle and 1570 Vivian Lane, both lakefront-adjacent properties with access to small private beaches reserved for homeowners on their respective streets.
That experience provides perspective across the full ownership cycle: acquisition, ownership considerations, market evolution and eventual resale.
When evaluating a significant lakefront purchase, they can help clients distinguish between characteristics that are largely cosmetic and those that are genuinely difficult or impossible to reproduce.
Lakefront Seller Representation
For sellers, an exceptional lakefront property should not be positioned like an ordinary luxury home.
The challenge is identifying what makes the property scarce, understanding which buyers are most likely to value those characteristics, establishing the property’s position relative to limited comparable sales and negotiating from a well-supported understanding of the market.
Mary and Ryan’s seller-side experience includes the approximately $46 million combined sale of 575 and 573 Lakeshore Boulevard, the $26 million sale of 947 Lakeshore Boulevard and the $13.8 million sale of 260 North Lake Circle.
For sellers of lakefront-adjacent homes, accurate positioning is equally important. A property with access to a small private beach reserved for homeowners on its street should be marketed for the access and setting it offers, without being described as direct lakefront when it is not.
Before Choosing a Lakefront Real Estate Agent, Ask for the Sales
If you are interviewing an agent to represent a significant Incline Village or Crystal Bay lakefront purchase or sale, ask specific questions:
- How many direct lakefront transactions have you actually completed?
- Which direct lakefront properties have you represented?
- Have you represented waterfront buyers, sellers or both?
- Have you successfully represented eight-figure lakefront transactions?
- Do you distinguish direct lakefront homes from lakefront-adjacent properties with neighborhood beach access?
- Which Incline Village and Crystal Bay shoreline locations have you worked in?
- Can the transaction history be verified?
Those questions make it much easier to distinguish general familiarity with the lakefront market from demonstrated transaction experience.
Mary Kleingartner and Ryan Mitchell can answer them with completed transactions involving five distinct direct lakefront properties, three additional lakefront-adjacent properties, experience representing both buyers and sellers, repeat purchase and sale representation, and multiple eight-figure waterfront transactions.
Lakefront Experience Within a Broader Luxury Track Record
Mary and Ryan’s lakefront experience is part of a broader record of more than $600 million in combined career residential sales and decades of local experience in Incline Village and Crystal Bay.
As of September 2026, they had closed more than $81 million in Nevada residential real estate sales year to date, including four record-setting Incline Village transactions and multiple eight-figure sales.
The $81 million-plus figure represents closed Nevada residential sales across the applicable markets, not sales exclusively within Incline Village and Crystal Bay. It reflects the September 2026 production milestone rather than a current, continuously updated sales total.
Their experience includes direct lakefront estates, lakefront-adjacent homes with private neighborhood beach access, ultra-luxury residences, confidential transactions, new construction, redevelopment opportunities, vacant land and distinctive properties throughout Incline Village, Crystal Bay and Lake Tahoe’s Nevada shoreline.
Buying or Selling Lakefront Real Estate in Incline Village & Crystal Bay
Lakefront property represents some of the rarest and most valuable residential real estate at Lake Tahoe. When the property or purchase is significant, the experience of the agent representing it should be equally substantive.
Mary Kleingartner and Ryan Mitchell bring a documented record of completed direct lakefront transactions, lakefront-adjacent sales, buyer and seller representation, eight-figure transactions and decades of local market knowledge to clients considering waterfront real estate in Incline Village and Crystal Bay.
