For Investors
With firsthand experience building an investment portfolio, Ilona understands what you're really asking when you look at a property. Not just "what's the price?" — but "what's the return, what's the risk, and what's the play?"
Whether you're acquiring your first investment property, adding to a portfolio, or looking for a value-add opportunity in a transitioning neighborhood, Ilona brings both market depth and financial literacy to the conversation.

Why Ilona
Ilona built and managed her own real estate investment portfolio before becoming an agent. She understands cap rates, cash-on-cash returns, and the math behind value-add plays — not just listing prices.
The East Bay is a nuanced market. Micro-neighborhoods matter. Ilona tracks permit activity, rent trends, school ratings, and buyer demand signals to surface opportunities before they're obvious.
She doesn't sell you on what the market is doing today — she helps you model the investment 5 and 10 years out. Clients leave every conversation better educated, not just sold.
With The Grubb Company's brokerage network and Ilona's community roots, you get access to off-market properties and deal flow that never hits the public MLS.
