About Pam Amato
Native Californian. Nevada County Resident. San Juan Ridge Specialist.

Personal profile:
I moved to Nevada County in l976 from the San Francisco Bay Area as a new bride. My husband Bob (a logger, at the time) and I purchased our first home in 1978 in Malakoff Estates off Cruzon Grade. We lived “off the grid” in our small cabin during the “back to the land” movement. We went to Grass Valley/Nevada City for banking, laundry and obtaining supplies twice each month. Our sons, Dustin and Joel (6th generation descendants of John A. Sutter were born in the Gold Country) in 1981 and l983. They learned to fish, swim, read and participate in local community activities on the San Juan Ridge. Dustin has graduated Chico State University with 2 Bachelor degrees in Business and Spanish. Joel is nearing the completion of his 2 Bachelor degrees in Mechatronic Engineering and Physics. Today, Bob and I live with conventional electricity on our 16 acres on Oak Tree Rd. with a pond, creek, pet kitty cats and our meadow grazing longhorn cow “Buttercup”.

Career profile:
In spring l979, I began selling real estate at Ridge Realty in North San Juan. By l985, I took a short break and joined a local title company in Nevada City, working as an escrow secretary. Ready to broaden my scope of the real estate market, I joined Coldwell Banker Grass Roots in l987. I continued working the rural country market yet began selling properties with street lights and paved roads, as well.

The Coldwell Banker Grass Roots team provided the environment to further enhance my skills as a professional full time sales associate. In 1994, Coldwell Banker Grass Roots honored me as the first female agent in the company to receive the Charles Brock “Agent of the Year” award. In 1997, I earned my Real Estate Broker license. In 1999, I was honored as a charter member of the Master’s Club in Nevada County. In 2006, I obtained the Certified Residential Specialist designation. I believe in continuing education and honing my skills for the success of buyer and seller clients.

In 2007, I will celebrate 20 years of Excellence with Coldwell Banker Grass Roots with the tag line “an Honest Approach to Real Estate”. As a San Francisco born, California native I am pleased to be associated with a company that was founded 100 years ago on the principles of honesty, integrity and service.

About where I love and live
The San Juan Ridge is a diverse community with some families having lived here for many generations, “back to the land” folks (arriving as I did in the late 60’s and 70’s), newcomers and environment minded looking for the quiet life. Each joined by the thread of being in nature, away from the traffic and busyness of city life.

Featured places to visit near the San Juan Ridge include: The Yuba River, Bullards Bar Reservoir, The North Columbia Cultural Center, The Ananda Community, Double Oaks Vineyard and Winery, Malakoff Diggins and The Shady Creek Family Camp and Conference Center. Look for updates as I increase this photo gallery to include other areas of Nevada County as well.
