After 26 combined years and over 500 homes sold, we’ve learned what works—and what doesn’t. That experience led us to create something new, something better:
Introducing: The We Group
More than just a name, The We Group is our commitment to doing real estate differently. We believe the solo agent model—especially without an assistant—is broken. No one can do everything well, all at once, alone. Not if they want to deliver great results.
We’ve built a team-based model where each person is an expert in their lane, and clients get a smoother experience and better results because of it.
So what does that look like?
- Sellers are averaging 106% of list price
- Buyers are winning dream homes in markets with little inventory and heavy competition
- And clients are consistently saying, “That was way easier than I thought it would be.”
Meet The We Group:
Rick, a Marin County native with nearly 20 years in real estate, is the steady hand guiding our clients through every step. He’s a fierce negotiator and a thoughtful listener, pairing deep market knowledge with a calm, client-first approach. Ranked among the top 1% of local agents, Rick leads The We Group with the kind of expertise and care that makes buying or selling feel seamless.
Nicole, licensed for 6 years with over 150 transactions under her belt, is the heart of our client experience. She leads timelines, vendors, showings, and negotiations like a pro. She could run her own show, but she chooses to lead within a team—and that’s why our clients win.
Jenna, our Operations Manager, is the glue that holds it all together. She supports Nicole and the rest of us while ensuring every handoff, task, and system flows seamlessly. If you feel like your transaction was “easy,” it’s probably because of Jenna.
Yoli is our paperwork ninja—making sure every disclosure, contract, and signature is buttoned up and correct. Deadlines don’t scare her; they fear her.
Alvin is our photo/video/drone magician. His visual marketing makes every listing stand out online and brings buyers through the door.
Mary, our stager, helps sellers create maximum appeal, whether they’re working with their own furniture or staging a vacant home from scratch.
Christy is our in-house wordsmith. She crafts property descriptions that tell a story and make buyers feel emotionally connected before they even see the home in person.
Zen, our assistant, works quietly behind the scenes to keep our digital systems humming, from schedules to spreadsheets and beyond.
You may have heard Rick has been spending a bit more time in San Diego—and yes, that’s true. But here’s what really matters:
Most of what we do—strategy, coaching, negotiation, and client connection—happens by phone and Zoom. That means whether we are in Petaluma or on the road, we're always plugged in, always leading, and always working.
Rick still owns his home in Petaluma and continues to serve clients across Marin and Sonoma Counties, just like always.
The only real change is this: we’ve built a team that makes everything work even better for you.
If you or someone you know is thinking about buying or selling, send them our way. And if you know someone with character, hustle, and heart, we’re hiring and would love to meet them.
Thanks, as always, for your trust and referrals. With The We Group, we’re just getting started—and we’re doing it together.
Warmly,
Rick Warner & Nicole Evans
The We Group
