Nicole knows what she’s doing and is there for you every step of the way. Nicole helped us with our purchase years ago and was our first choice to represent us for the sale of our home.

Nicole made a stressful time a thousand times easier. I'd recommend Nicole to anyone looking to sell their property especially if they are looking to sell with many comparable properties available. She made a stressful time a thousand times easier than it might have been and helped me sell much quicker than average. While other sellers in my neighborhood were spending weeks on the market, we were able to close in 8 days! I look forward to working with Nicole when I'm ready to purchase my next property!

She is incredibly kind, intelligent, down-to-earth, and her service is top-notch!. My partner and I worked with Nicole Chavira with The Nick Shivers Team.

We made offers on houses and kept getting outbid by cash-only offers but she kept our spirits up! We didn’t give up hope and now we love our new home. She also made the process of selling our home go smoothly and got us above-asking price. In addition to her stellar real estate skills, she also gave me suggestions to groups and resources that helped me blossom in my own career.

Nicole Chavira is an angel on Earth 💖🙏. I learned of The Nick Shivers Team from a wonderful lady named Nicole Chavira. We spoke in detail about my home I have lived in since 1985 in the Mt Tabor neighborhood . I had many questions and concerns. I had raised my children in that home. When my husband of 32 years passed and the kids moved away and married, I was at a loss. Nicole listened to all of my concerns and answered all of my questions…she had so much patience, compassion and is such a warm, kind soul. You don’t find that in many people today, especially one that is helping you make a life changing decision. Nicole Chavira is an angel on Earth 💖🙏

When I sell, buy, renovate or flip my next house, she will be my one and only choice. She's going to get all my business going forward! I highly recommend Ms. Chavira! Thank you Nicole!

If I move back to the portland area, Nicole would be my first choice to work with again. I didn't purchase a home with the Nick Shivers team, because I ended up buying in Eugene. But even though she wasn't selling me a house Nicole Chavira helped me find other realtors in Eugene and helped me with any questions about buying a home for the first time. If I move back to the Portland area, Nicole would be my first choice to work with again.

In the bustling world of real estate, it’s rare to find someone as dedicated, astute, and approachable as Nicole!. From the moment we embarked on our house-hunting journey, it was clear that Nicole was more than just a realtor; she was a beacon of knowledge and support. Navigating the Portland housing market could be a daunting task, but with Nicole by our side, the intricate tapestry of neighborhoods became a welcoming map to our dream home. Not only did she exhibit a keen understanding of the local market, but her intuitive grasp of our needs and desires was nothing short of extraordinary. What stood out most was Nicole’s impeccable communication. Whether we had a pressing query or a slight concern, her responses were swift, clear, and always insightful. Her recommendations, be it regarding the type of house or the charm of a particular neighborhood, consistently hit the mark. But what truly set Nicole apart was the ease with which she transformed the often stressful process of buying and selling into a seamless experience. It was evident that her commitment went beyond mere transactions; it was about forging lasting relationships and ensuring her clients’ utmost satisfaction. To those on the cusp of their own real estate ventures in Portland, I wholeheartedly recommend Nicole Chavira. Entrusting her with our journey was the best decision we made, and I am confident that with her expertise, you too will find not just a house, but a place to truly call home.

At every turn, we always thought Nicole was organized, a top-notch communicator, and super kind to us. Nicole was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. We interviewed a few realtors of color and while they all were great, Nicole stood out to us. She was thoughtful when answering our questions and gave us concrete examples about how she advocates for her clients. On top of that Nicole lives in the area we were searching, and she was familiar with the area of town we were selling. Throughout the process, Nicole was easy to reach, communicated in detail about everything, and walked us through the buying and selling process simultaneously without hiccups. At every turn, we always thought she was organized, a top-notch communicator, and super kind to us. Every chance we get, we recommend Nicole to our friends and colleagues.

I highly recommend her!!!. My daughter suggested we hire Nicole since she was a friend of a friend and seemed very motivated. She was our buyer's agent for a house we purchased in Milwaukie and that worked out great. She helped us find the perfect house and saw us all the way through the process. At first I wanted to sell the house I've owned for 11 years on my own but in the end I decided to hire Nicole. I'm so glad I did.

I have no doubt we got the best deal that we could have on our sale. We’re very happy with our experience!. Nicole is amazing! She was prompt to every meeting and always prepared. She was super knowledgeable about the selling process (we were selling only) and even though we had no issue with anything she said regarding sale price etc., she was ready with the reasons why she thought what she did and gave detailed explanations on the decision process, which I appreciated! She was always responsive to any questions we had and willing to give advice or suggestions. The whole process was super smooth, and we sold within 5 days of listing - which I’m convinced was due in part to Nicole hustling to get the word out about our house and hosting open houses that first weekend. Throughout the contract process, Nicole was keeping us updated and really went to bat negotiating for us. I have no doubt we got the best deal that we could have on our sale. We’re very happy with our experience! (Listing Sold 2019) -Emily & Billy K

I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!. Nicole was amazing to work with! She was patient and kind. My sale was difficult for me emotionally because it was due to a divorce. She held my hand every step of the way. Even when delivering bad news she did so so with thoughtfulness and a sensitive ear. And yet she never let me lose focus or hope. She was straightforward and honest giving insight into the market and giving her opinion on the best course of action. She is professional, reliable, honest, easy to work with, and really there for her clients. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. (Listing Sold 2018) -Bianka

Nicole was kind and helpful and didn’t make us feel uncomfortable for being young and clueless to the home buying process. My husband and I decided to buy our first home so we can make the first steps toward our biggest investment and building a home to start a family with down the road. Living in an apartment was not making us happy. So we decided even though the market was insane, we would try to see if we had a shot at buying our first home! Nicole was kind and helpful and didn’t make us feel uncomfortable for being young and clueless to the home buying process. She even gave me a template of questions to interview other real estate agents and gave me her answers to those questions. I appreciated the professionalism that Nicole had when mentioning we had spoken with other realtors too, and that we are trying to decide who would best fit our needs and personality. We ultimately knew Nicole was going to be our realtor right after meeting with her! What I liked best about working with Nicole was her responsiveness and her no bs attitude. She wasn’t going to sell us on something that wouldn’t work for us, we saw quite a few places and had lots of questions and she never once pressured us or made us feel like she was our realtor. It felt like we had a friend who genuinely wanted to help us find our first home and make sure we found a good investment. We ended up buying a home that needed a lot of TLC, and she’s been following along the process of our remodel, we are definitely having her over to see the finished product, because without her this wouldn’t have been possible! She’s just very genuine in her work and puts her heart into it, I can tell she knows what she’s doing and knows how to put home buyers/sellers at ease! I’m not saying this to be nice but I don’t think there’s anything Nicole could improve on in my book, I think she’s a gem to work with and an amazingly kind person! I have already been recommending Nicole to my friends and family who mention wanting to buy/sell a house and we have already decided if or when we sell our house we will call Nicole first!

Having bought many homes over the years I can safely say I’ve never had a better experience than working with Nicole. My fiancé and I started our search pre-COVID back in February and from the beginning Nicole was always professional and diligent about showing us the homes that were most relevant to what we wanted. During the pandemic and shutdowns she still continued her communications with us and kept us up to date on the changes in the market. Once she helped find us our home, she was  amazing at guiding us through the process and helping us navigate some unforeseen issues with the property. She also helped us post close in getting us settled with local utility contacts! Bottom line is she was with us every step of the way from beginning to end and even after closing! I couldn’t ask for a better experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property! (Purchase 2020) -Carlos & Kaela

John

I would recommend Nicole over and over!. Nicole did an incredible job finding the right house for us in a very tight and low inventory market period. An added layer of complexity also included that we were residing in the Midwest, and looking for homes in the Portland area, so Nicole was our "eyes and ears" sending us listings based on what we were looking for in a house in a specific area of Portland. We were detailed and specific about what our "wants vs needs" were, and Nicole was instrumental in finding us our forever home. In addition, once we found a home, she worked quickly with our mortgage broker to ensure there was a seamless transition- she worked tirelessly to ensure she kept in good communication with the seller's agent and our mortgage broker, and helped us through to the very end when we got our keys. We had a lot of faith in Nicole to get us to this point, and she was instrumental in finding this home for us and guiding us through the entire home buying process. I would recommend her over and over! (Purchase in 2021) -Sara & Chris
