Steve Luker
Associate Broker/Operations Manager

It’s Steve’s job to iron out the lumps, bumps and inevitable problems that arise between an agreed upon contract and a closing (settlement). He focuses 100% on solutions so that the sale can go through and in timely fashion, too. Other agents call Steve the “Hat Team’s secret weapon.” You’ll call him your hero! (And his daughter calls him the best Dad ever).

Jim Nickel
Business Manager

Bill-paying…computer operations…financial analysis. The Hat Team can go forward with meeting your needs, knowing these all-important behind-the-scenes functions are in good hands: Jim’s hands. When not pouring over the books or computers, Jim’s probably cheering his favorite sports team.

Billy Young
Production Manager

Billy and his group of Buyer and Seller Specialists spend 100% of their time serving buyers and sellers. When he’s not training and inspiring those folks, Billy is busy advising homeowners on how to get top dollar for their homes. And, when he sneaks some time away, Billy loves travel, theatre and spending time with friends.
