With over 20 years experience in real estate sales and investments, Nicole Thomas is uncompromising when it comes to ensuring her clients' success. Nicole has a proven track record. Her first priority is making sure her clients get the most for their hard earned money. Growing up, Nicole's family slowly acquired a small self managed real estate portfolio on the Northside of Chicago. From an early age, she learned the ins and outs of buying, selling, renting, renovating, and managing property. Now, as a full-time Realtor and investor since 2002, Nicole helps clients from all backgrounds make informed decisions as they navigate the buying and selling process. She strives to make every transaction seamless, ensuring you never leave money on the table. When working with Nicole, expect to have all your questions answered and your concerns addressed. She takes the unknowns out of the buying and selling process so you can proceed with full confidence. If you're unsure where you want to live, Nicole, a lifetime Chicago resident, can provide insight and current market data regarding all the unique communities Chicago has to offer. She primarily serves the Northside, but her job affords her the chance to use her wide ranging knowledge of the city and suburbs to help her clients find the right fit. As a parent with two teens, she offers firsthand insight into the city's many neighborhoods and schools, giving you the information needed to make the right choice for you and your family.
When selling, a stellar first impression is paramount in a competitive housing market. Nicole's 20+ years of experience and keen eye to what sells gives her clients an important advantage. As both an investor and a homeowner herself, she has renovated and updated many apartments and homes over the years and can quickly spot what to highlight and what changes or updates are needed. She obtained a BBA in Design Marketing from Parsons School of Design and loves utilizing her design skills to help prep and stage homes for market.
Nicole treats your money like her own. Her friendliness, availability, and transparency have allowed her to earn many repeat clients and develop a business built entirely on referrals. Nicole's services don't end at the closing table. She is never too busy to talk market trends, taxes, condo association questions, or offer recommendations for home furnishings and improvements.
Outside of real estate, Nicole loves gardening, trying new restuarants, and teaching fitness classes at her local gym. She lives in Lakeview with her husband, two boys and two cats.
