Founded by Leslie Lawson, a seasoned real estate professional with over 16 years of experience and nearly 700 successful transactions, Ignite Real Estate was built on a simple philosophy: relationships come first, loyalty is earned, integrity matters, and exceptional service should never be compromised.

As a licensed real estate broker in Nevada and the founder of Ignite Real Estate in California, Leslie combines extensive market knowledge, strategic negotiation expertise, and a powerful professional network to help clients confidently navigate every stage of their real estate journey.

Alongside her husband and partner, Kevin Lawson, a retired CAL FIRE Deputy Fire Chief, Leslie brings a unique spirit of leadership, loyalty, dedication, and unwavering commitment to the Ignite experience.

Together, they have built a brand centered on genuine relationships, integrity, collaboration, forward-thinking technology, and a shared passion for serving the people and communities they proudly represent. Their combined experience and commitment to service create a foundation of trust, reliability, and accountability that extends to every client relationship.

From the vibrant communities of California to the breathtaking landscapes of Northern Nevada and the Sierra Nevada, our team understands that every property has a story and every client has a vision.

Through thoughtful guidance, elevated marketing, strategic insight, and open communication, we deliver a real estate experience that is both seamless and rewarding. We believe in building lasting relationships that extend well beyond the closing table, earning our clients' trust through consistent communication, genuine care, and a commitment to always putting their best interests first.
