    Marianne Yoffee: Building Community Through Real Estate and Beyond

    Marianne Yoffee, a dedicated real estate agent and active community member, has made a name for herself in both Pahrump and Las Vegas. Representing Engel & Völkers, Marianne’s approach to real estate is deeply rooted in her commitment to people. Her philosophy is simple: “I just want to help people. Whether or not I’m their realtor, I’m here to guide them.” This mindset sets her apart in a competitive industry filled with other agents. “I care, and I listen. It’s not about the money for me—it’s about helping as many people as I can,” she explained.

    Marianne’s journey into real estate began in 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. She had previously worked for the Nye County Clerk’s Office, a job she left in 2019 to focus on her family. “My kids got into wrestling, and I needed the flexibility to support them,” she said. Starting her real estate career at Realty One, she quickly realized the importance of local connections and mentorship. This realization led her to Classic Realty, where she gained valuable experience. Eventually, she joined Engel & Völkers, a brokerage known for its collaborative and supportive culture. “I love this brokerage because it aligns with my values. They emphasize helping everyone succeed, regardless of which brokerage they’re with,” she shared. “I don’t understand the competitive hostility some agents have. We all need to work together and build genuine relationships.”

    Though Marianne splits her time between Pahrump and Las Vegas, she maintains a strong connection to Pahrump, where she resides part-time. “I’m in Pahrump almost every day or every other day, depending on my appointments and checking on our house here,” she said. Pahrump holds a special place in her heart, not just because of its affordability when her family first moved here in 2013 but also because of its welcoming atmosphere. “When I first moved here, I was amazed by how kind and inviting everyone was. Amanda O’Neal was one of the first people I met, and she made me feel so at home,” Marianne recalled. “In Las Vegas, people come and go, but Pahrump has that Old Town feel that makes it unique.”

    Marianne’s passion for community extends far beyond her professional life. She is an active member of Soroptimist International, a nonprofit organization focused on empowering women and girls. “We do so much for the community, from the Mardi Gras event to Christmas for Seniors. Our population in Pahrump is small compared to larger cities like Las Vegas, but we have one of the largest chapters,” she said proudly. Marianne is also involved in Female Founders, a Las Vegas-based initiative supporting women entrepreneurs. While the program is currently paused, she plans to relaunch it in 2025 and hopes to bring its benefits to Pahrump. “The goal is to help all women entrepreneurs, no matter where they are. I’d love to expand it to Pahrump and surrounding areas.”

    Marianne’s personal life is as vibrant as her professional one. Married to her high school sweetheart for 19 years and together a total of 28 years on February 1st, she cherishes their journey together. She fondly recounted their spontaneous Las Vegas wedding in 2006, which took place at the Little White Chapel. “He proposed to me out of the blue after a long work shift. We didn’t have rings or a big plan—we just went for it,” she laughed. The couple celebrated with In-N-Out burgers and now looks forward to recreating the event for their 20th anniversary.

    The couple has three children: Kenzo, 18, Mika, 16, and Suri, 13. Kenzo recently graduated and is exploring his future in real estate and the military. “We want our kids to explore their options, whether that’s entrepreneurship or college,” Marianne said. Mika is a junior at the College of Southern Nevada High School and still wrestles for SLAM, thanks to a variance that allows her to represent the school. Suri, the youngest, is a seventh grader and a straight A student. “My kids are my world, and I’m proud of how they pursue their passions,” she added.

    Reflecting on her move to Pahrump, Marianne shared the practical reasons behind the decision. “We moved here because it was more affordable than Las Vegas, especially during the post-recession years. I sold my Hawaiian shaved ice business and used the funds to buy a house here. The community, the Smith’s grocery store, and even the farmers market made it feel like the right choice for our family,” she said. While Pahrump’s affordability has changed over the years, her love for the town has not. “This community always shows up when it matters. Whether it’s a crisis or a cause, people here come together, and that’s something you don’t see in a big city.”

    Marianne’s dedication to fostering connections, both in her real estate career and in her community involvement, reflects her deep appreciation for Pahrump. “This town is special. It’s a place where people genuinely care about each other,” she said. As she continues to grow her business and expand her philanthropic efforts, Marianne remains a shining example of how one person’s passion and dedication can make a lasting impact.
