About Nick

Nick Bordin believes that respect and trust are key in any relationship - and real estate is no exception. “I was drawn to real estate because I like meeting people and watching their life journey, and helping them as their property needs change,” Nick says. “I love being trusted to help people with one of the biggest decisions they will ever make,” Nick says. “And my philosophy is simple - I treat people the way that I would expect my family to be treated.” Originally from Kyogle, Nick moved to the coast to pursue a career in real estate when he was just 18 years old, and he quickly built a solid standing in sales at Elders Lennox Head. His career highlights include seven years working in Sydney’s booming Eastern Suburbs. While there, he helped run the number one team nationwide at McGrath and The Agency and was involved in the sale of over $1.5 billion of property. Nick puts this success down to his country upbringing and ethics, which kept him grounded in one of Australia’s most competitive real estate markets. While he’s been involved in numerous record sales, Nick believes that it’s not just about figures - it’s about meeting and exceeding client expectations and making sure everyone’s needs are understood. And it’s his energetic, customer first approach that has helped him build lasting relationships and an impressive reputation. In early 2018, Nick and his wife Hannah returned home to Lennox and they couldn’t imagine a better lifestyle than raising their growing family in the close knit Lennox community.

Nick is one of the most genuine real estate agents I've ever met!

We sold our first family home with Nick recently, and he kept us calm throughout what could've been a stressful process. He is an excellent communicator and an all round good guy. Nick found us a buyer at the top of our price range within two weeks, and managed the whole process seamlessly. I highly recommend Nick and his team for buying and selling in the Lennox area - they are all so professional and lovely to deal with.

Seamless and professional

We have bought and sold with Nick and the Elders team a number of times now and each time the experience has been seamless and professional. Nick and the team go over and above to ensure every detail is looked after taking the stress out of the process. We can not recommend Nick and the Elders team highly enough.

A totally satisfactory experience

Nick was totally professional and extremely helpful throughout the process of selling our property. He had initially valued our property over 3 years ago, after which we decided not to sell. Nick approached us with purchasers that were looking for this type of property. He also knew of a property for sale with another agent which he thought would suit us - he was right ! The whole process has taken less than 3 weeks to exchange of contracts. A totally satisfactory experience.

Nick was amazing to work with

Nick was amazing to work with in the sale of our home. We felt completely supported and cared for every step of the way. Nick and his team at Elders are the only real estate agents we will work with, in the Northern Rivers.
