OUR BACKGROUND

Rooted in the Places
You Want to Call Home

Modern home
“Licensed in both California and Arizona, Pines to Vines Realty is uniquely positioned to assist buyers and sellers across state lines — an ideal resource for relocating, investing, or purchasing a second home.”

With deep community roots and dual-market experience, Felice Katz and Rica Girardi help clients make confident real estate decisions across two of the Southwest’s most lifestyle-driven regions: Arizona’s White Mountains and Temecula Valley Wine Country.

Felice and Rica partnered because many clients are not thinking about real estate in only one town, one county, or even one state. Whether you’re relocating, buying a second home, or investing, we provide honest guidance, responsive communication, and market insight you can only get from professionals who know their communities.
