David Palma
Co-Op Member Owner
eXp Realty
Roseville , California
My name is David Palma, and I specialize in representing ranch, land, vineyard, equestrian, and development properties throughout Northern California. I also serve on the Agent Advisory Council for eXp Realty’s national Land & Ranch Division, where our focus is building elite systems for high-acreage and lifestyle properties that require a higher level of representation.
Before I became a full-time agent, I was a ranch kid. I grew up working land, riding fence lines, and bucking hay as my first job. I know what it means to care for acreage, not just as a commodity, but as a legacy. That’s what separates me from most agents. I’m not guessing at the value of what you’ve built. I understand it because I’ve lived it.
Palma Group, in partnership with eXp Realty, the largest brokerage in the world, we are redefining how land is marketed and sold. Through our specialized Land & Ranch Division, we bring unmatched exposure, targeted precision, national & world wide buyer reach to every property we represent.
We’ve successfully represented everything from vineyard estates to cattle ranches, legacy homesteads, and large-scale development parcels. What unites them all is the story behind the land, and our ability to market that story with clarity, creativity, and authority.

Attached, yet privately oriented, is a separate 1,400-square-foot ADU with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, a full kitchen, a living area, and its own 2-car garage.

Internal ranch roads run along the northeast boundary extending toward the rear acreage, allowing vehicle access throughout the property. Roughly half the land consists of rolling pasture with mature oak trees, while the remaining acreage transitions into open range terrain with sagebrush, scattered trees, and additional grazing ground. Infrastructure supports ranch operations and modern living with a large solar array tied to grid power and a backup generator system, along with strong wells supporting irrigation. Two gated entrances serve the ranch. The primary driveway leads to the main residence, while a secondary gated access point allows equipment or livestock movement to additional portions of the property. Despite the privacy and size of the land, daily conveniences remain close. Grass Valley Hay and Feed and Esteme Equine are nearby for ranch supplies. Nevada County Consolidated Fire District Station 92 is approximately 1.7 miles away, Cedar Creek School is 4 miles away, Clear Creek Country Store is 5 miles away, and Becker Stables Arabian Show Horses is approximately 6 miles away.
