Benefits

The Benefits

What are the benefits of using a LOCAL Independent Real Estate Brokerage and Realtor? There are many!

Local Connections

I’ve lived in SE Wisconsin all of my life. I’ve raised my family and my children here. I am out and about with sporting activities, local charitable events, know the neighborhoods, hot spots and can pinpoint the best homes for your needs. I have established relationships with quality lenders and professionals throughout the community to assist you with anything you may need for your home. Now or in the future!

Open and Honest

Open, honest and professional advice throughout the entire process. I’m of the mindset that if I wouldn’t put my own family in a home, I definitely won’t put a client in it either.

Commission Savings

Unlike some of the “Branded” brokerages one of the biggest advantages of going with a Local Brokerage is my ability to cater Seller commission rates to your specific wants and needs.

    “Charlene was great! This was the second time we went through Char for our real estate needs. She looked at several condo units and homes virtually with us and then in person. So very patient until we found the condo unit for us. We highly recommend Char for any selling or buying of real estate.”

      If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Char Nikolai is a ROCKSTAR realtor and I wouldn’t work with anyone else. She goes above and beyond and is always a pleasure to work with. She really knows her stuff!!! Between me and my adult children, we have worked on purchasing homes with Char 6 times now. Love her! Photo is our most recent purchase just last week. Thank you Char!

        Char was wonderful to work with! She is extremely knowledgeable, very friendly and relatable, available and helpful, but most importantly honest!! She helped us every step of the way when we sold our house and I definitely recommend her!

          Buyer

          I don’t normally write reviews, but I absolutely have to let others about my experience working with Char to find a rental property. It’s amazing the wealth of knowledge in real estate that Char possesses, but that lucky for her clients, she shares that knowledge with us so that we can make informed decisions in order to buy the best home for us at the best price. She is also an amazing advocate for her clients to ensure we are treated fairly throughout the home buying/selling process. I look forward to partnering with Char again in the near future. Thank you Char!

            We would not have obtained our home without Char. She is smart, well informed and the most responsive agent we have ever encountered. She was exceptional in all phases from finding properties, finding information and providing solutions and paths to resolve any obstacles. Very highly recommended!

              Char is the first agent I thought of. Not only is she a person that works tirelessly for you but she is dedicated, funny and fair. I recommend her to everyone whether I know them or not. Char knows her stuff and I will always call her first!

                She was able to get more for my properties than I would have if I sold them myself !

                    Char went above and beyond for us. When we would text her a lot we liked she would pull the plat of survey to us with her opinion after reviewing. Once we were done building we turned to Char to sell our house and she did a phenomenal job for us.
