Prior to becoming a real estate professional I worked as an income tax practitioner, notary public, legal assistant, marketing representative and loan officer. I’ve been a real estate professional in Los Banos for 19 years, negotiating and successfully closing some very challenging transactions in traditional residential sales, probate, short sales, foreclosures, commercial, and ranch properties.
I learned early on that my job isn’t to sell properties, it’s to close escrows, meaning I do what it takes (legally & ethically) to get the job done.
I’m dedicated to my community and promote the quality of life it has to offer.
I’m currently serving as:
Director, Los Banos Chamber of Commerce (served as President for 5 1/2 years out of 11)
Co- Chair of the Merced County Association of Realtors Professional Standards Committee

Family and Personal Interests
I’m married, have five adult children, six grandchildren, two standard poodles, and a cat. My husband and I have been volunteers for Water Skiers with Disabilities for 20+ years, serving as coaches and volunteers on Local Organizing Committees for Regional, National and World Championships.I served as Manager for the 2017 US DisAbled Water Ski TEAM.
We also enjoy shooting Cowboy Fast Draw, portraying the old west days, shooting wax bullets from single action six shooters at targets. It’s a great family oriented sport with the motto of Safety First, Fun Second, and Competition Third. I’m known as “C21 Peacemaker”, my husband is “The Undertaker”.

"“Geneva took on the difficult task of helping my father, then 86 years old, sell a very specialized property with many limitations to selling it. One of the limitations was my Dad’s deep love of his Duck Club. Dad had been a member for over 30 years and the value he placed on the club was based on his personal experience of it, which was not measurable by normal standards. There was a lot of emotion attached to this property for my dad. The other limitation was due to Club rules and regula..."

"“We first met Ms. Brett several years ago when we became involved in some real estate transactions in Los Banos, CA., where my family owns ranch and commercial property. From the very first time we met Geneva we felt very comfortable that we had chosen not only a reliable and professional real estate agent, but someone who truly cared about her clients. We were not disappointed, as our business with Geneva would require not only an unbelievable amount of patience on her part but would also t..."
