Client Testimonials
"We had an amazing experience with Nicole! We moved to the area from another state and she really went above and beyond to get the right house for us. She put in the extra effort to do remote showings by video and do anything she could to give us all the additional information we felt we needed to make an informed decision from a distance. She was extremely knowledgeable at every step of the process, providing us with a great deal of material to both make the process of buying our home easier but also our transition to living in the area as well. Even after our home sale was complete, Nicole was still willing to lend us a hand to help us make our transition and get acclimated to our new lives. She is by far the best realtor we've ever worked with and we can't recommend her highly enough!" - Cameron Parsons
"When we moved from Arizona to Indiana, Nicole helped us navigate an absolutely CRAZY competitive real estate marketing. Due to COVID, flying was an impossibility at the beginning of our search, so she became our eyes and the voice of reason. If there were places that met our criteria, she would do video walkthroughs so we could get a feel for both the house and the neighborhood. When we wanted to jump on any offer simply due to buyer’s fatigue she would calmly and logically discuss the pros and cons." - Pamela Spence
"Nicole has been truly amazing and helpful from our first phone call to closing…and even afterward. As first time home buyers, we really needed some hand holding and Nicole did that and more. We ended up going the new construction route and Nicole truly provided additional benefits by making suggestions based on her experience in regard to what’s worth adding and spending money on. She is reliable, efficient, and enjoyable to work with! I highly recommend Nicole to anyone." - Kate Wojtan
"All three of my experiences with Nicole exceeded my expectations. Each of my transactions were uniquely challenging and Nicole proved to be excellent in navigating the market trends. Her guidance revealed her depth of knowledge and experience. But what I appreciated the most was that she listened and focused on my preferences and concerns.In one of my transactions, it was just as important to find the right buyer as it was to get my asking price. I had an offer from a conventional buyer above my asking price. I was inclined to accept the offer but Nicole dug deeper and discovered that the buyer’s agent was slow playing a contingency that favored the buyer if the deal fell through. She helped me avoid a good-looking, bad deal. I'll be a repeat customer." - Bill Jacobs
"Nicole is wonderful! What more needs to be said? Very diligent and responsive! You won’t be disappointed!" - Mark DiLeonarde
"Nicole was an incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely helpful partner in our home selling journey. Nicole came prepared from the moment we first met and had answers for every turn along the way. Nicole transformed what could have been a very stressful time into an experience that I was informed, supported, and excited to be going through. I would highly recommend Nicole if you are looking to buy or sell a house, because more than just having a realtor, you will be getting an amazing, experienced, and genuine teammate." - Bobby Bolton
"Nicole is a fantastic realtor! We were in such good hands with her as we purchased our first home. She's thorough, responsive, communicative, and really listened to us. She also gave us great referrals for other services needed throughout the process. When we're ready to make our next real estate move she will absolutely be our first choice! Highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home." - Danni Smith
"I was referred to Nicole by my sister. Nicole was very hands-on, direct and responsive. She sold me my home in Indiana and advocated for the sell of my multi-unit property in Illinois. She did more work than my actual Illinois realtor. I ran into issues with the sell of my building and she kept my pending purchase calm and interested the entire time. She is great regarding availability and she had creative ways in helping my family and I get our Indiana home. I had a deadline to find a home within 30 days and she made it happen with ease! I definitely recommend her! She goes above and beyond!" - Rosa King
"I am truly grateful for Nicole. She helped us find our beautiful home. She is very responsive and always on top things. She is an excellent realtor who cares about her clients and her job. Thank you Nicole for everything ❤" - Jilicia Simms
"Working with Nicole has been an absolute pleasure for us - both for rentals as well as personal properties. She is super communicative, always answers fast to any text or call and really tries to get a good understanding of her client's wishes and needs. On top of having a lot of knowledge regarding the real estate market in this area, she's super personable as well, which makes this whole stress of finding and buying a house so much easier and just all around nicer! We went through 8 real estate agents before we found her, and are super excited to continue working with her!" - Sean
