Two regions. Two lifestyles. One team that knows them both.
Escape to the pines — where summer temperatures run 20 to 30 degrees cooler than the Arizona valley floor, elk roam through neighborhoods, and neighbors still wave from their front porches. Or embrace the vines — where rolling hills dressed in Cabernet and Syrah set the backdrop for a wine country lifestyle that feels like a weekend getaway every day of the week.At Pines to Vines Realty, Felice Katz and Rica Girardi bring together their deep roots in both markets to offer home buyers and sellers something rare: genuinely local expertise in two of the Southwest's most sought-after destinations.
Get Started
Arizona communities
Arizona's White Mountain region is one of the state's best-kept secrets — and that secret is getting out. Nestled above 6,000 feet in elevation, communities like Pinetop-Lakeside, Show Low, Greer, and Snowflake offer a refreshingly different Arizona experience: four full seasons, towering ponderosa pines, and temperatures that stay comfortable year-round. It's where Phoenix and Tucson families escape the summer heat, where remote workers have discovered they can actually live where they vacation, and where retirees are finding a quality of life that the valley floor simply can't match.
Felice Katz has called the White Mountains home for nearly two decades — and there's no one better to help you find yours.
California communities
Temecula and the surrounding communities of the I-15 corridor offer something increasingly rare in Southern California: a real quality of life at a price that doesn't require a second mortgage to afford. Think acclaimed schools, wine country weekends, and a tight-knit community feel — with San Diego and Orange County still within reach when you need them. From family neighborhoods in Murrieta and Menifee to the estate-style living of Temecula's wine country, Felice and her team know this market inside and out.
