BROKER ASSOCIATE
KELLIA NICHOLS
I have been serving the Southwest Washington area for many years now and am proud to say that I have upheld these values when working with all my current and past clients on their personal transactions. Coming from a background in education, I specialize and enjoy working with first time home buyers by teaching and guiding them through their entire real estate process. I also have a strong skill set in working with land transactions and have developed quite a few business relationships with many of the various builders working in our area. I am extremely passionate about helping my clients unfold their own personal project of finding a piece of land that they love and then constructing the home of their dreams on it.
Lastly, I am very proud to have started my own networking group called PNW Referrals. The mission of PNW Referrals was to build a supportive and tight knit community of business owners with like-minded integrity and principles. I have now acquired a very strong base of contractors of all categories, commercial and residential lenders, escrow agents and many other businesses that I am able to allocate while administering a real estate transaction of my own. I guess you could say that I really do come with the backing of a very strong team to provide my clients with any specialized needs that they may have while closing a transaction with me.
The best part of my career is when I receive those personal referrals from my satisfied clients! Most importantly, I am always available to answer any of your real estate questions and will be more than happy to help you with all your personal real estate needs. Please allow me to support you with your future dreams!
When I first began my Real Estate Career over eight years ago, I asked myself an important question. What would I want in a real estate agent when buying or selling my own home? The answer was simple. I would want an agent that is extremely educated in the current trends of the market with a strong background of knowledge in my own personal neighborhood and geographic location. I would also want an agent that truly understands the complete process of a real estate transaction and to be able explain the steps from beginning to end in a way that makes sense. Lastly, I would want an agent that protects my personal interests and has the strong skills of negotiation to ensure that I will receive the best possible outcome in my real estate experience.
