Nicole Ellis, PNW Property Princess

Hi, I’m Nicole Ellis, and I believe real estate is about more than buying and selling homes. It’s about building relationships, helping people achieve their goals, and serving the community I’m proud to call home.

As a Licensed Broker with John L. Scott Market Center and more than five years of experience in real estate, I bring a unique combination of sales expertise, client advocacy, and community leadership to every transaction. My professional background includes 13 years selling nursery stock throughout the United States and 11 years as a health coach, both of which taught me the value of strong communication, trust-based relationships, problem-solving, and personalized service.

I hold the ABR® and AHWD® designations and have completed John L. Scott’s Certified Buyer Representation Specialist®, Certified Seller Marketing Specialist®, and Certified Open House Specialist® training programs. Whether I’m helping a first-time homebuyer, seller, investor, luxury client, or someone relocating, my goal is to provide knowledgeable guidance, honest communication, and exceptional results.

My business is built on relationships, not transactions. I take the time to understand my clients’ goals, advocate for their best interests, and provide the support they need to make confident decisions.

Beyond real estate, I proudly serve as a Board Member for West Tuality Habitat for Humanity and as a Planning Commissioner for the City of Forest Grove. I am honored to have been voted Best Realtor in Western Washington County, serving Forest Grove, Cornelius, Gaston, and Banks, for 2024, 2025, and 2026.

As a wife, mom, and outdoor enthusiast, I love sharing everything our area has to offer, including Fernhill Wetlands, SakéOne, and Willamette Valley Vineyards. Favorite local dining spots include FG Sushi, Cornerstone Pub & Grill, and Black Dog Bar & Grill.

Whether you're buying, selling, investing, or relocating, I would be honored to be your trusted real estate resource.

Reach out today. I’d love the opportunity to help you achieve your real estate goals.

"Best realtor ever! Nichole went the extra mile throughout the entire process. Extremely personable and I had no doubt she had only our best interests in mind. She even worked with us remotely when she was on vacation, answering every text and following up on everything that needed to be done day and night. Highly recommend her and will only work with her and her team if we ever sell and buy again. She’s the best!"

"Nicole is phenomenal. We were first time home buyers and I don't think I could have asked for a better experience. She's so knowledgeable. She went above and beyond the entire time (even showing us a house the day after she got back from her honeymoon). Just call her. You will be happy you did. Thanks Nicole!"

"Nicole was so quick to help this newly single mom out at the last minute! Her kind words, encouragement and sharing life experiences really helped me shed a different light on my housing situation! Not only was she quick to respond, she took the time (even tho she had so much going on). And we all know these days time is so valuable 🥰 She continually checks in on me and I know she will always be there if and when needed for any real estate questions, needs, and wants. Thank you for all you do Nicole! I appreciate and value you more than you know!!!"
