Our Story

Over 30 years ago, while running Captain Kelly’s Water Ski School on Lake Tahoe, Kelly Dietz met Dan. At the time, Dan was frustrated with the property manager of his vacation rental due to a lack of communication. He needed someone to care for his Tahoe home, someone he could trust and rely on to ensure it was not only well-maintained, but also generating revenue. As a young entrepreneur, Kelly was up for the challenge, and Tahoe Luxury Properties was born. As word spread over the years, more and more homeowners sought out Kelly and her team to manage their properties.

In 2006, after 15 years managing the Alpine Meadows Ski School and spending summers working in construction and home design, Bill Dietz pursued his Real Estate Broker’s License. In his first seven years, Bill closed more than $250 million in real estate sales. Then, in 2014, he achieved a banner year with $89.9 million in residential real estate sales, further solidifying his reputation as one of the region’s top agents. In 2021 alone, Bill sold more than $222 million in real estate. Today, Bill and The Dietz Group have sold more than $1.6 billion in residential real estate across California and Nevada, including more than 94 lakefront homes. Together, the real estate sales and vacation rental divisions that comprise Tahoe Luxury Properties continue to thrive. While we take pride in our business acumen, we believe our success is rooted in something more.

After more than two decades in business, we believe our success is rooted in the relationships we build. We treat our homeowners, guests, clients, and team like family — a philosophy reflected in the many employees who have been with us for more than 10 years. We care for each home as if it were our own and strive to create an authentic, seamless Tahoe experience for every guest. Our approach to real estate is no different. With integrity, local expertise, and a personalized approach, we serve as trusted advisors, guiding our clients through every step of the buying and selling process with confidence and care.

Giving Back to Tahoe & Truckee

We are proud to support our local community and nonprofit foundations that make this place we live so special. Each quarter, Tahoe Luxury Properties honors a nominated team member with the opportunity to select a local nonprofit to receive a $2,500 donation. This program allows us to support meaningful causes that resonate personally with our local team and further strengthen the community we’re so proud to serve. A few of our favorite non-profits we support include:

Tahoe Fund

The Tahoe Fund is dedicated to funding environmental improvement projects in the Lake Tahoe Basin. With an impressive portfolio of over 220 projects, these environmental improvement projects include reducing the risk of catastrophic wildfire, improving the health of the lake, and making it easier to get around, enjoy, and take care of Lake Tahoe.

Shane McConkey Foundation

The Shane McConkey Foundation honors those who inspire positive change in the world and the life of others. Shane was an innovator, a goofball, a friend, a husband, and a father, but his zest for life carried into his deep appreciation for the environment and living creatures. Each year, the foundation donates to causes that benefit wildlife preservation, environmental education, kids’ health and wellness, land and waterway cleanup, and projects that directly impact the Tahoe-Truckee community.

Sierra Community House

The Sierra Community House provides hunger relief, legal aid, immigration assistance, and family-strengthening programs, as well as direct services to victims of intimate partner/domestic violence, sexual, and child abuse. With locations in Kings Beach, Incline Village, and Truckee, we offer a range of services that help individuals and families in the North Tahoe/Truckee.
