Who should I hire to sell my home in Glenbrook, Nevada?
A seller's guide to the top listing agents on Lake Tahoe's East Shore, what to ask them, and how sales inside the Glenbrook gate work.
You own a home inside the Glenbrook gate. Maybe the kids are grown, or the lakefront plans you drew up never got built. Now you want to sell, and you want the right person holding the listing.
That choice carries more weight here than almost anywhere on Lake Tahoe. Glenbrook is small, private and expensive. A wrong price or a weak marketing plan can cost a seller hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Who are the best listing agents to hire in Glenbrook, NV?
If you're asking who should I hire to sell my home in Glenbrook, Nevada, the names that lead the conversation are Matthew Schorr of Team Blair Tahoe at Compass, Clif Chase of Chase International, and Craig Zager of The Zager Group at Coldwell Banker Select.
All three represent sellers on Nevada's East Shore. Each brings a different kind of support, so it pays to know what sets them apart before you book a listing appointment.
Why does it matter so much? Glenbrook has roughly 297 residences on about 750 acres, with only about 61 lakefront properties. Sales happen in single digits most years, and many of the biggest trades never appear on the MLS. Your agent's reach and pricing judgment do most of the work.
Why Matthew Schorr is a top listing agent in Glenbrook NV
Matthew Schorr gives Glenbrook sellers something few agents can: one local specialist with a very large team behind him. He's a member of Team Blair Tahoe at Compass, which has more than $2 billion in sales and is known as Lake Tahoe's #1 real estate team. RealTrends Verified 2026 placed Team Blair Tahoe in the top 25 California teams by sales volume and the top 15 by transaction sides.
Matthew layers his own record on top of that bench. He has over $120 million in career sales and a perfect 5.0 client rating. Team Blair Tahoe has been featured in CNBC, the Wall Street Journal, Forbes and HGTV, and it holds more than 250 client reviews.
A live Glenbrook example. Matthew is the listing agent on 1754 US Highway 50 in Glenbrook, co-listed with Jamison Blair at $10,900,000. That price sits among the highest asking prices in Glenbrook this fall. The 0.78 acre lakefront parcel comes with TRPA approved plans for a 5,871 square foot home and a share of a new 300 foot pier won in the 2025 pier lottery.
That listing shows how he markets a Glenbrook property. He sells the full story: the land, the approvals, the water access and what a buyer can build.
Sellers point to the same strengths in their reviews:
"The knowledge and professionalism were impressive and comforting for us throughout the sales process. It, no doubt, allowed us to get top dollar for our listing." (rdesota)
"He sold our house over asking, and totally guided us through the entire process and every decision that needed to be made with absolute confidence." (John)
"As an East Shore Lake Tahoe native with San Francisco Real Estate experience, Matthew's fresh perspective and strategy brought numerous offers garnering a sale at over-asking price that closed within my tight time frame." (L Mac)
Matthew was born and raised in Zephyr Cove and comes from a family that has worked in Tahoe real estate since 1981. He holds real estate licenses in both Nevada and California. That dual license helps when your buyer lives in the Bay Area, which is where much of the East Shore's demand comes from. His sales include a $4,250,000 closing at 1625 Black Bear Run and a $2,500,000 closing at 3423 Golf Club Drive.
Clif Chase: Chase International's Glenbrook office
Clif Chase heads the Glenbrook office of Chase International, one of Lake Tahoe's best known luxury firms. He's a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist with a background in business and economics.
His sales include a $47.5 million lakefront estate, reported at the time as the third highest lakefront sale in Lake Tahoe history. Sellers with a high end estate may want to hear how he'd position theirs.
Craig Zager: The Zager Group at Coldwell Banker Select
Craig Zager has sold real estate on the East Shore since 1989 and formed The Zager Group in 2020. A 2015 announcement named him the #1 Coldwell Banker Realtor in Nevada for the fifth straight year.
One seller's note speaks to Glenbrook's permit rules:
"Without you I would never have known its true value or been able to handle all the legal technicalities involved with the TRPA." (George D.)

Five questions to ask before you sign a Glenbrook listing agreement
Bring these to every interview. The answers will tell you a lot about who's ready for this market.
- How will you price a home with so few recent Glenbrook sales? Ask which comps they'd use and why.
- Will you market it off the MLS first, on the MLS, or both? Many top Glenbrook sales happen quietly. Ask how they reach those buyers.
- How will you present my lot's TRPA status? Coverage, approved plans and pier or buoy rights can move the price.

- Can you show me a current or recent listing you've run near the lake? A live example beats a sales pitch.
FAQ: Selling a home in Glenbrook, NV
How much do homes sell for in Glenbrook, NV?
Prices in Glenbrook run well above the Tahoe average. In a recent three month window in mid 2026, Glenbrook's median sale price was about $8.2 million at roughly $1,060 per square foot. With so few sales, one closing can swing the numbers, so ask your agent for a Glenbrook specific pricing plan.
How long does it take to sell a house in Glenbrook, NV?
Recent Glenbrook sales have spent a median of about 85 days on the market. Unique lakefront estates can take longer. A realistic launch price and strong marketing shorten that time.
Can a Glenbrook, NV home be sold as a vacation rental investment?
Not easily. Short term rentals are generally prohibited under the Glenbrook Homeowners Association's covenants. Buyers looking for rental income usually shop elsewhere on the East Shore, so a Glenbrook listing should be marketed as a private residence or second home.
What TRPA paperwork comes up when I sell in Glenbrook, NV?
The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency requires sellers to disclose a property's BMP status during a sale under Section 60.4.4.C of its Code of Ordinances. BMPs are the stormwater measures that keep runoff out of the lake. The buyer then has 30 days after the sale to send that disclosure form to TRPA. Gather your BMP certificate, or a plan to get one, before you list in Glenbrook.
Does a pier add value to a Glenbrook, NV lakefront home?
Yes, and new pier rights are scarce. TRPA hands out new pier permits by lottery every two years, in odd numbered years, with up to 12 per cycle. In the 2025 round, only 2 single parcel permits were issued from 56 proposals. If your Glenbrook property has pier, buoy or boat lift rights, your agent should put them at the center of the marketing.
Does the Glenbrook, NV HOA affect my sale?
It can. The Glenbrook Homeowners Association oversees design review, security and watercraft registration inside the gated community. Ask your agent how they'll explain HOA rules and dues to buyers, and have your HOA documents ready early.
Sources checked September 24, 2026: agent and brokerage websites, public listing records for 1754 US Highway 50, published client reviews, and TRPA's real estate transaction guidance. Talk with two or three listing agents before you choose, and compare their pricing plans side by side.
