Nicole's Bio My family has always owned their own investment properties since I was a young girl living in my home town. As a result I have had my own buildings and homes for which I managed and understood the importance of good management.  I have decided to go public with my services and now have over 300 doors for which my team and I manage. I have come up with the name of RYIS properties to honour my two boys who are young adults today, one who is in an apprenticeship to become a plumber who is named Ryan and my second boy, special needs who was born with Fragile X Syndrome and is living with me and is involved in a day program and his name is Kurtis……….RYIS (first two letters of Ryan and last two letters from Kurtis) I have been educated as a legal administrator in which gave me the training for detail and also worked as a recruiter and had various administrative functions. I have been raised in a construction world and have been a partner in a Plumbing and Contracting business which gave me the ability to understand different methods of all maintenance required and or needed.
