Some chose a career in real estate. For others, real estate chooses them. Such was the case for Nichole Bookwalter Savenor. After purchasing a home on the National Historic Register, Nichole became so entrenched remodeling her 1844 Greek Revival that she was nominated to serve on Somerville's Historic Commission. The rest, as they say, is history.Eighteen years and one Mid-Century remodel and award later, Nichole still operates with the same passion for real estate that catapulted her career over a decade ago. A devout Architectural Digest reader and former intern at Mass General/Harvard, she's an anomaly of sorts. Bolstered by a degree in Biochemistry, she flawlessly blends left and right brain, methodically analyzing market data, trends, and pricing strategies, all while delivering flawless staging schemes.A personable problem-solver, Nichole jokes that she'd be a therapist in an alternate life. Whether navigating relationships, marriage, divorce, kids, schools, or new jobs, she's the consummate guide when ushering folks into the next chapter of their lives. Truth be told, Nichole lets her clients guide the process. It's a tactic that landed her Rookie of the Year her first year in the biz, and it's continued to drive her success today, nearly 400M+ in sales later.Co-founder of the Savenor Berkery Group, Nichole and her partner, Merrill Berkery, have cultivated excellent relationships with clients, colleagues, and the community. Nichole has been President of the Cambridge Community of Realtors (CCR) for over 10 years, and now a board member. The CCR helps raise money for homeless children in Cambridge, has held continuing education courses for realtors, and gatherings for the greater real estate community. Through the CCR Nichole has strong relationships with brokers, lenders, attorneys, and anyone that touches the real estate business.Residing in Belmont with her family, Nichole is proud to visit her two sons, now residing in Colorado and studying engineering and pre-law in Boulder. Known to walk her pup, Charlie, on the 1,100-acre green space in the neighborhood, she's equally at home sailing the Cape, or tele-skiing at her second home in Killington, VT. Who knows, maybe there's a third remodel in her future. If anyone could receive three awards from the Historic Commission, it's Nichole.
