Originally from the Bay Area in California, Gina moved to Eugene over 20 years ago to attend the University of Oregon and has since fallen in love with the Pacific Northwest. As a competitive triathlete and swimmer, Gina is no stranger to working hard and persevering. Her real estate business is built on dedication, trust, determination and an open line of communication, while also having the ability to cater and adapt to all of her clients real estate needs no matter where they are in their journey.  Gina finds her greatest successes are in helping her clients set goals, and working towards achieving them. As the real estate industry has evolved to become more innovative and efficient, Gina has followed suit and strives to provide uncommon service and support to her clients.

When she is not working with clients, Gina (a.k.a. Coach Gina) keeps her toes in the water by coaching Willamette High School swim team and training when she can. Having had experience as a coach and trainer, Gina understands how crucial it can be to have someone by your side every step of the way. She will be your real estate coach and mentor, as well as your biggest supporter and fan in all aspects of life.

Gina also wholly believes in the power of community and serves on the Board of Directors of a couple local organizations and actively gives through her GIVE campaign, in which she donates a portion of her earnings to various organizations such as Friends of the Children, Kidsports, Kids FIRST, the Cascade Raptor Center and Food for Lane County (among others). 

From 1976 to 2015, I was the broker/owner of Unique Properties, Inc. that I started in 1976.



I have been a member of the Eugene Association of Realtors® since 1973 and served as president of the Association in 1990. I hold several designations from the National Association of Realtors® including that of Certified Residential Broker (CRB) for managing brokers and Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) for sales associates. These designations are held by only 3% of Realtors® nationwide.



In the early 70s I worked in the then Building and Sanitation Department at Lane County which gave me a valuable perspective on developing rural property and a thorough indoctrination into County processes at many levels.



I have remodeled, refurbished and restored 7 of my own homes. In 1987 I purchased and began restoring the 1910 bungalow at 59 East 14th Avenue where Unique Properties was located. During the late 1970's I was a co-founder and partner in Soft Tech Homes. In 1985-86 I was the general contractor for a new home for my parents.



During the 1960s I lived in Monterrey, Mexico, and Mexico City for 8 years where my father built and ran two foundry/manufacturing plants that made cylinders sleeves to use in rebuilding car engines for the Mexican market.



I attended Bucknell University in Pennsylvania for two years and have a B.A. in Spanish from the University of California at Santa Barbara.

I look forward to helping you with your decisions in either urban or rural properties.
