35 years
Renovating and flipping homes
We know what buyers notice, what repairs are worth making, and where a dollar of prep turns into two dollars of value.
About the group
A broker who builds. A team that delivers.
Marv Nicholson Group is a real estate team built around one principle: the client comes before the commission. We help homeowners get their homes ready to sell, with preparation costs paid at closing, so sellers keep more of their equity and enter the closing table with confidence.
22 years
As a managing broker
Listings, pricing, negotiation, and closing are handled with the authority that comes from leading thousands of transactions.
15 years
As a mortgage lender
We understand financing from the other side of the table, so we price, prepare, and negotiate with the buyer's approval in mind.
The story
From the lender's desk to the listing side.
Few careers touch every corner of a real estate transaction. Marv spent 15 years in mortgage lending, learning how approvals, appraisals, and budgets really work. He spent 35 years renovating and flipping homes, learning exactly what makes buyers say yes. And he has spent 22 years as a managing broker, leading listings from first showing to final signature.
That combination means the group prepares homes the way a flipper would, prices them the way a lender would, and sells them the way a broker should. The result is a process built on knowledge no single discipline can offer.
Refreshify
The father-and-son construction company.
Behind every recommended repair stands Refreshify, the family construction company Marv runs with his son. The same hands that have refreshed and flipped homes for decades do the prep work for your sale, which means quality is controlled by the people whose name is on the work.

In practice
What "client before commission" means on the ground.
Transparency
Every proposed cost is itemized and agreed in writing before work begins. What you approve is exactly what is done.
Preparation
Homes that are truly ready attract stronger offers and smoother closings. We never list a home we would not want to buy ourselves.
Protection
Your cash stays yours through the process. Preparation costs are settled from the proceeds at closing, never out of your pocket.
