 Mike
Pristow, GRI
Mike Pristow feels as though he was born into
Real Estate. In his younger years his family was very actively involved in
brokerage and Escrow in the Northern Nevada Real Estate market, including Lake
Tahoe, and he assisted in the development of several custom properties.
After completing High School, Mike spent several years
in active duty with the US Air Force, then the reserves.
Upon leaving the Air Force, Mike became an IT Manager,
which brought his family to the South for several years. Mike transitioned to
sales and enjoyed successful years with his fortune 100 clients, until he
decided to return to his first love, Real Estate and Las Vegas.
Mike is involved in selling both residential and
commercial, and also writes commercial leases, is a member of his market
center’s Agent Leadership Council and teaches technology classes to assist
Realtors across the city. He is also a member of the Nevada Association of
REALTORS® Leadership Group. Mike was selected as a 2007 Five Star Agent and was also named a 2008 Five Star Agent, based on an independent survey of people who had
recently used a real estate agnet. Less than 3 percent of the real estate agents in the
Las Vegas area were named Five Star Agents.

 Nichole
Montagano, Assistant
Nicole Montagano, originally from Northwest Indiana,
moved to Las Vegas in 2005. She is an assistant to Mike and Donna, and is also a
promotional model. She attends The College of Southern Nevada and plans to
obtain her Real Estate license in the near future, to become a REALTOR®.
Nicole is eager to learn and become successful. When it comes to work, Nicole is
always punctual and professional. Her dedication to "doing it right" makes her
the perfect assistant, and her knowledge of computer marketing has made her
indispensable in pushing the Teams' listings to hundreds of internet websites.
Being an only child, Nicole spent a lot of time absorbing
knowledge from her elders. In Nicole’s younger years, her parents were involved
in the buying and selling of houses, and she developed an early interest in real
estate when she helped “fix-up” rental properties that her parents owned.
When Nicole is not hard at work she enjoys spending time with
her beloved fur-children, Scrub and Sadie. Nicole also has a passion for cooking
and baking. Nicole played basketball in leagues for seven years, and still
enjoys picking the ball up in her free-time. She enjoys watching sports and
being outdoors. She loves to fish, hike, swim, ride quads, ski, ride horses, and
anything else that will get her adrenaline pumping. She like to try new things,
and would love to skydive one day. Nicole loves to stay active, but also enjoys
“movie nights.”.
 Miss
Tootsie
Miss Tootsie is our mascot. She knows nothing about real estate, but
she makes everyone laugh. (We're sorry to have to tell you, but Miss T was killed by a coyote on May 17, 2011. She will always be in our hearts.) |
