-
“We used Nicole to purchase our new home and sell our existing home. She went above and beyond and we could not have had a better outcome due to her knowledge and experience. We would highly recommend her!”
-
“We've worked with Nicole on buying and selling a few properties. She always does a great job and is very responsive. Very knowledgeable and has her clent's best interests in mind. We have and will continue to recommend her to friends and family.”
-
“Nicole made our experience smooth and stress-free. She was so easy to work with, incredibly efficient, and always had our best interests in mind. We are very thankful for the time and energy she dedicated to helping us find exactly what we needed.”
-
“Always available and more than helpful in finding the home you're looking for.”
-
“Nicole made the home-buying process so much easier! As a first-time buyer, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but from our very first meeting, she walked me through the entire process step by step and answered all of my questions. She created a comfortable environment where I felt confident sharing what I did and didn’t want in a home. Because of that, she was able to find options that matched my preferences, location, and budget. Nicole’s timely communication was also a huge help—thanks to her responsiveness, I was able to secure the home I now live in and absolutely love!”
-
“Nicole was dedicated to our journey of buying our second home as soon as we met at our first showing and she helped us understand every consideration and step in the process. We rushed to get our first home sold with no contingencies and it seemed like she was always ready to drop what she was doing (if possible/reasonable) to help us with something related to staging our home when things were the most hectic. Her communication and clarity were top notch, we didn't get caught off guard by any step in the process and received plenty of reminders to make sure everything was going to smoothly from purchase to sale. This process can feel hugely daunting, and we may not have survived if it had been anyone besides Nicole in our corner. Thank you, Nicole!”
-
“Working with a realtor can be frustrating; they don't always seem to work solely for your interests. We had decided to not work with the agent who was selling our old house because we felt unheard and managed in that transaction. We found a few houses we liked and, of the realtors who had listed those properties, we chose Nicole and Century21. We had a somewhat difficult time finding the right fit for us, but she never wavered in her representation of us. It seemed as though she was always 'our' agent.”
-
“Nicole was helpful, knowledgeable, and quick to reply to our questions! She was fantastic to work with.”
-
“Nicole was very friendly and helpful in my search for a property for my sister. She was able to show me several places, and was professional in dealing with the somewhat difficult seller of the property I ended up buying.”
-
“It was great working with Nicole. She got me in to see multiple listings that sold in a day or less. She also helped me determine value and potential resale value of these homes so I knew if I was getting a good deal. It also helped determine whether it would sell well down the road. Overall very good experience I would definitely use her as my realtor again.”
-
“Nicole Leusink was very friendly and easy to work with. She was always available to show us listings even on short notice. We are thankful for her helping us to buy the townhouse.”
-
“Nicole is down-to-earth and professional. She was knowledgeable about the area we were buying land in, helped us negotiate to get a better price, and no matter how obscure the question we threw her way was, she was able to track the answer down and get back to us relatively quickly. I'd happily work with her again.”
-
“Nicole was a fantastic person to work with. She always had my best interests in mind throughout the entire process. As this was my first time purchasing a home I was in the deep end and Nicole really went above and beyond to ensure I was knowledgeable when making important choices. Cannot reccomend her enough!”
-
“Nicole was very easy to work with! She made the process of selling my house very easy for me and she took care of everything I asked her to do. I highly recommend Nicole.”
-
“Nicole did a fantastic job of both selling our house along with finding our dream house. We have bought two houses with Nicole's help and sold one and I'll never use another agent. There's a reason we refer her to every single one of our friends and family looking to buy. The best of the best.”
-
“Nicole Leusink was truly exceptional. From the moment we began preparing to sell our home to the day we stepped into our new one, she was by our side—steady, supportive, and deeply committed. In a turbulent market, Nicole was the calm in the storm. Her diligence, knowledge, and constant communication gave us both clarity and comfort through every step of the process. More than just a realtor, she was our guide, our advocate, and someone we could genuinely trust. Thanks to her, what could have been a stressful journey turned into one filled with excitement, ease, and confidence. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for you—someone who will make you feel seen, heard, and safe in one of life’s biggest decisions—Nicole is the one. Without a doubt, she should be your realtor.”
-
“Thank you for the help! I appreciate you working with me for the past 1-1/2 years to find the right place.”

-
“We had the absolute pleasure of working with Nicole as our realtor during the purchase of our first home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, Nicole was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly responsive. No matter what questions or concerns we had (and as first-time buyers, there were a lot) Nicole was always available and made sure we felt informed and confident every step of the way. She also made great recommendations for other service providers like a home inspector and lender. She walked us through the ins and outs of using an FHA loan so we never felt overwhelmed. Nicole took the time to truly understand what we were looking for and helped us find a home that was absolutely perfect for us. We are so grateful to have had Nicole in our corner during this huge milestone. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care for her clients are unmatched. We wholeheartedly recommend Nicole to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She’s simply amazing!”
