“Going above and beyond is not a bonus — it’s the baseline. We’ve painted interiors, spread mulch before open houses, checked on properties in the middle of the night, and closed two escrows for the same client within 24 hours. For us, it’s all part of the process.”

Kimberly Sethavanish
Founder & Lead Agent · DRE #01915066

Kimberly Sethavanish is the founder of Kimberly James Real Estate and one of Sonoma County’s most recognized real estate professionals. A graduate of the University of California, Irvine with a Bachelor’s in International Studies, Kimberly brings a rare combination of business strategy, marketing expertise, and genuine care for her clients to every transaction.

Named a finalist for the National Association of Realtors’ prestigious 30 Under 30 award and a featured speaker at Inman Connect Las Vegas, Kimberly has built her reputation on a philosophy that sets her apart: extraordinary service is not optional — it’s the standard. She has painted clients’ interiors, spread mulch the day before an open house, and once helped a client simultaneously sell one home and purchase another, with both escrows closing within 24 hours of each other.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer navigating the process for the first time or a seasoned investor looking for your next opportunity, Kimberly’s deep knowledge of the Sonoma County market, her calm under pressure, and her tireless work ethic make her the agent clients come back to — again and again. Many of her clients have completed 6, 7, even 8 transactions with her team.

“I just completed my 8th real estate transaction with Kimberly and James — and again they made a complex purchase so easy, efficient, and a success. Their work ethic and patience is unheard of in today’s market. What began as a suggestion from my mom in 2015 has helped usher me into financial freedom. They are people I can count on as good friends.”
