Nilgun (Nelly) Kokoz

Nilgun (Nelly) Kokoz is passionate about real estate and helping clients find their forever home. Even though she is fairly new in the real estate world she is very eager to play a part in helping in every way possible whether it’s selling your home or buying a new one.

Before Nelly decided to take part in the real estate world, she owned and ran her own Zagat rated restaurant. Over a decade in the crazy restaurant lifestyle, she decided to take life in a simpler view and joined Nordstrom as a sales representative. In character, she couldn’t help herself and became a top seller, helping her clients find anything and everything that fit to their needs.

Nelly plans to do the same in real estate. She feels strongly that real estate is more than four walls and a roof. It is the context for individualism, our style, our joy and where we share our lives with those we love. For Nelly, this is what it is all about. Her inspiration and motivation.

She is always grateful to be part of your life, by serving you and yours and looks forward to getting to know you.
