Valerie Lynn Brinker
Real Estate Agent (Salesperson)
Truckee - CA

Valerie embarked on her real estate career in 1999 while pursuing her studies as a junior at Berklee College of Music in Boston. After graduating Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor’s degree in Professional Music and recording an original song with Epic Records, she established herself as a successful broker in Boston while also performing as a lead singer across the Northeast. With a unique blend of artistic passion and business acumen, Valerie’s love for the outdoors naturally led her to the Truckee/Lake Tahoe area, where she has dedicated herself to guiding buyers and sellers in this stunning locale. After several years of balancing her business between the East and West Coasts, she is now fully committed to showcasing the Lake Tahoe experience.

Clients choose Valerie for their real estate needs due to her creativity, diligence, and attention to detail. With extensive experience across various aspects of the industry—including assisting buyers and sellers, managing rental properties, overseeing renovation projects, and collaborating with investors—she brings a comprehensive skill set to her work. Valerie holds a Broker’s license in Massachusetts and Salesperson’s licenses in both California and Nevada, and she continually seeks to enhance her real estate knowledge to provide the best service possible. Her approach is characterized by attentive listening, clear communication, and exceptional service, steering clear of high-pressure sales tactics.

Outside of her professional commitments, Valerie enjoys snowboarding, rowing on the beautiful waters of Lake Tahoe, singing jazz, and designing her own line of handmade jewelry. She is also an active volunteer with the Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe and the High Fives Foundation, frequently donating her jewelry to support local charitable initiatives. Valerie has found her ideal home in the Lake Tahoe area and is enthusiastic about sharing her passions—from the breathtaking backcountry to the neighborhoods that best fit her clients’ needs.
