Reasons to Call ReeceNichols Home
OUR STORY ReeceNichols has a remarkable history, one with historical ties to Kansas City dating back to 1905 with the formation of J.C. Nichols Real Estate and again in 1987 with the creation of the J.D. Reece Company. In 2001, these two iconic brands saw an opportunity to align to better serve the people of Kansas and Missouri and provide them with unparalleled stability and strength right at home. They joined forces, and Reece & Nichols became the undisputed market leader in the region. In 2014, we took it one step further and removed the “&� from our name. As ReeceNichols, the name no longer conveys two companies but instead one united brand, expanding our regional footprint and standing together as the leader in Kansas and Missouri real estate.

EXPERTISE Our agents have the tools, knowledge and passion for their profession to help guide their clients through the home purchase and ownership journey.
LOYALTY We strive to create lifelong relationships with every family we work with by listening throughout the entire process, making sure they get everything need and ensuring they are fully satisfied with the results.
MOTIVATION We’re motivated by our clients. We love having the opportunity to help them find a home that makes them happy. Because we understand that it’s not just a new home — it’s a new neighborhood, new school, new best friend.
