INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – Local real estate agent Kristie Wells is hosting a Wildfire Preparedness & Mitigation Community Seminar at The Chateau in Incline Village on May 26 from 5-7 p.m. after seeing firsthand how wildfires can impact real estate decisions and raise many questions.

Through the seminar, Wells is creating a space where Incline Village and Crystal Bay property owners can receive clear, practical information from local experts, offering actionable guidance on reducing wildfire risk and protecting their homes.

“With this year’s lighter snowpack and wildfire season already top of mind for many residents,” Wells says, “we felt it was important to create an event focused on real-world information people can use immediately – from defensible space and home hardening to insurance and preparedness planning.”

Wells has brought together local experts in defensible space and home hardening, as well as insurance and risk mitigation, including North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District, the Tahoe Resource Conservation District, State Farm, Peyton Insurance and others.

“Our goal is simple: help ensure our community is better informed and better prepared before wildfire season intensifies.”
