Nikki Shorts - Real Estate

Prior to becoming a realtor with Grate Real Estate, as a freelance violinist I thought home ownership in LA would never be possible for me. Now that I have insight and knowledge about the real estate market, I feel a sense of responsibility to help educate my music community. My name is Nikki Shorts. I'm a Los Angeles area native and a freelance musician and a realtor. My Bachelor of Music degree is from Cal State Univ, Long Beach and my Master's Music degree is from Northwestern University. From recording for blockbuster films and TV shows to touring domestic and abroad, I have first-hand knowledge as to the life of a freelance musician. Because of this, I'm also aware of the issues that arise when freelancers go through the process of looking for a home. One of the many services I offer is helping clients vet mortgage lenders to make sure they are familiar with how freelancers report income. Because of my clients' teaching and gig schedules, I offer flexible hours for us to look at homes and I make sure that our time together is efficient. 100% of my clients (buyers and sellers) make offers or receive multiple offers in 2 weeks or less. I want to provide a sense of hope (instead of a sense of dread) when it comes to buying, selling, and investing in property. Contact me today for a brief consultation over the phone to help you assess your readiness to purchase a home. I'm here to help you in any way I can.
