Planning to use Nicky Ellem as your
Real Estate Agent?
That's smart.
Nicky Ellem
Sales Consultant
Nicky has spent many years working in hospitality and pharmacy in customer service focused roles where she found a very natural way of interacting with people by providing exceptional service but mostly by being interested in them personally, going beyond just what was expected in her job description.
Entering another person’s home, representing them in their endeavour to achieve the best possible outcome in selling their home is something Nicky doesn’t take lightly. It excites her to be involved with making her clients' dreams come to fruition. Nicky wants all the people that choose her to represent them as part of the Keyline Team to have a positive experience. She remembers too well the feeling of buying and selling a home personally; it can be overwhelming. Looking to buy or sell property comes with decisions that can prove challenging. She wants to be the soft landing when the going gets tough.
Having gone through an in-depth recruitment process, Nicky feels honoured to have been chosen to represent a family-owned business that prides itself on giving the best customer service possible in the endeavour of achieving great outcomes for all involved with Keyline. She lives in the community she works in, and building relationships that carry into the future is something that excites and motivates her to be the best she can be.
What is
the SmartRe Sale
how can it benefit you?
The SmartRE Sale is the best method of sale when there are multiple buyers for a property. It is the only effective method of sale when there is just one.
The SmartRE sale strategy uses the private treaty method of sale, with some subtle variations aimed at obtaining the HIGHEST PRICE.
If true genius lies in the ability to take something complicated and make it simple, then the reverse must hold true. Most common real estate methods take a straightforward process and make it dangerous, complicated and risky, for both buyer and seller.
The aim of any sale for the seller and their agent is to maximise the final sale price, with minimal risk for the seller and within the agreed time frame.
The aim for the buyer? Find the right property at the right price without having to navigate the deception of false pricing and spending money for no result.
No Sale, No Charge.
TheSmartRE sale includes our no sale, no charge approach, insuring you’re not risking your hard earned money with old-fashioned upfront marketing costs. It is underpinned by a unique integrated negotiation strategy which using all four quadrants, guarantees you the best price in today’s market
For both the property seller and buyer, simplicity leads to good outcomes, and simplicity is the hallmark of The SmartRE Sale.
Most properties sold in Australia would benefit from this most transparent strategy.
During a private treaty sale, the property has a revealed listed price. It is a price the seller will accept and it allows the buyer to purchase the property at the asking price.
A genuine asking price close to or at market value helps the seller maintain the power within a negotiation once a buyer is found.
Don't sell your home for a high price. Sell it for the highest.
In a strong seller’s market there can be an enormous difference between a high price for your property, and the highest price. Talk to us today about how the Smart Sale can achieve the latter.
Find the best buyer, the heart buyer..
Occasionally, a buyer for a property defies market logic. They are a specific buyer for a specific house. This buyer will generally live in the property and it becomes their home. There is an instant and strong emotional connection. It might be a childhood home, close to work, close to friends and relatives, or maybe in the right school zone.
Whatever the reason, these buyers are emotional and buy with their heart – not with the cold logic of a financial property purchase. They will pay a higher price than expected, often above market value.
Client Reviews
We would like to give the biggest of Thankyou’s to Keyline Realty. It has been a full month now since we settled on our first home purchase, and it feels like we are only just catching up on regular life! A big thank you to the team at Keyline Realty, but in particular Nicky and Zara. You both supported us so much on this journey. We were stressed, asked countless silly questions and had no idea what we were doing. You guys gave us confidence and made us feel safe. Thanks again team! Would do it again with you both in a heart beat!

Wayne Jury
Nicky is very lovely since I met her few months ago at the first time. So I always had good conversations with her every visit on house inspections. I am so glad to buy a property that Nicky involved. Nicky and Zara helped me after the purchase too.
Mika Yamafuji
Twenty-four years ago, I purchased my home in Nambour through Keyline Realty, and when the time came to sell, I had no hesitation in choosing Keyline Realty again. The process of selling a home can be very stressful, but the exceptional team at Keyline Realty made it so much easier. Nicky and Zara were absolutely amazing. They kept me up-to-date each step of the way, providing professional and dedicated service throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail and commitment to their clients are second to none. I am incredibly grateful for their support and highly recommend Keyline Realty to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you, Nicky and Zara, for your outstanding service!
Jane Martin
The team at Keyline were there for us every step of the way. Especially Nicky and Zara. They both went above and beyond what was expected of them. Would highly recommend for selling and buying
Debra Derooy
I really don’t know where to start. For me this has been a new experience in selling and one I was very nervous about, until I met the Keyline Nambour team. They were so helpful, passionate and caring in so many ways. I came across a few hurdles along the way, and to my surprise these guys actually cared, they were so supportive and always calling to see if I was ok. I cannot praise Nicky and Zara enough they were amazing, beautiful, caring, honest and funny ladies. The rest of the team, I didn’t get to know as well, were always there helping in the background with any issues I needed sorted. Thank you so very much guys, I will always appreciate what you did to help me. Definitely 100% recommend this team
Tina Carr
I have to say that Nicky and Zara are a formidable Team. I have recently had the pleasure to buy a property through Keyline Realty in Nambour and have never experienced such efficient and caring service as I have had here. The communication was clear and no request was too much. Keyline deserves a 5 Star review every day.

Kerry HIll
My partner and I are incredibly pleased with the service received from Keyline Realty for our first home purchase. The house buying process can be daunting, but their entire team was fantastic every step of the way. From finding potential properties to helping us negotiate an ideal contract, Mark and Nicky were always available and communicated how each part of the whole process would move forward. They also profoundly understood the housing market in the Nambour Region, which allowed us to get an incredible deal on a property that exceeded our expectations! Beyond their expertise and professionalism, the entire Keyline Realty team was amicable and kind throughout our home buying process. They answered all my questions with in-depth explanations, ensuring I fully understood what I was doing and why it was necessary. Also, a special mention to Zara in the office, whom on numerous occasions went up and beyond seeking answers to all of our questions, no matter how big or small! My partner and I are so glad that we ended up purchasing with Keyline Realty, as they have all been helping us search for a property for over a year! Mark, Nicky, Zara and The Keyline Team's knowledge and experience, combined with their patient approach, made this otherwise stressful event a smooth and successful process. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch real estate services!"

Dealing with Keyline was simple and easy. Nicky the salesperson is the best she got for me what I wanted and quickly.

We had a great experience with Keyline in buying our first ever home. Nicky was amazing to deal with, on the open home day she was welcoming, friendly and most importantly NOT PUSHY! Because we had family from overseas visiting they even went through the effort to getting us an early settlement which was incredible. Highly recommend

The whole process was efficient, professional and I’m so grateful I was informed of beneficial information only, when necessary. Nicky’s hard work & dedication highlights her as a rising superstar in the real estate world. Highly recommend the Keyline team.
