More than 65 people attended the 1st Option Realty's Grand Opening last Thursday. Owner/realtor Dana Uhlhorn says, “The turn out was amazing. The Mayor, many members of the Chamber of Commerce, lenders, past clients and business associates from as far away as Carson showed up. I believe a good time was had by all.”

Uhlhorn believes the Fernley area is about ready to take off and he wants to help with Fernley's new growth. Uhlhorn adds. “I plan on attending business broker classes in Las Vegas soon too.”

Denise Wagner, Uhlhorn's partner, is a long time Fernley resident and has had multiple careers in real estate. Uhlhorn says, “She is a fountain of knowledge about all things Fernley.”
