NICK & ELLIE GLIDEWELL

Sagely & Edwards Realtors ®

When it comes to buying or selling a home or property, there’s nothing more important than expertise with the personal touch. And for the past fourteen years, that’s exactly what Nick and Ellie Glidewell have provided to hundreds of satisfied customers.

“ We’re a team that complements each other’s talents,” Nick says. “We both do different things well, but what we share in common is a commitment to the process and serving our customers to the fullest. We follow up on every single phone call and sweat all the details, crossing the t’s and dotting the i's. I think that’s the strongest indicator that this business will never fully be handled remotely. Something we tell our younger clients is that while technology is great and it makes some parts of the process a lot easier, you just can’t get the kind of hands-on service that we provide working through an app.”

The couple is associated with Sagely & Edwards Realtors, consistently ranked at the top among area real estate firms. This gives them access to the latest technologies, endless resources and trustworthy colleagues, all to make the buying or selling process a smooth one. The couple leverages this relationship with their own knowledge of the local market, which is also their hometown. Both Nick and Ellie grew up in Fort Smith and love to help people achieve their dreams of home ownership in a community that has meant so much to them personally.

“ I’ve had the privilege of living my whole life here in Fort Smith,” says Ellie. “I love this community and truly believe this area is one of the best spots in the world to live. I like the people and the land, so real estate has been a logical way for me to have great encounters with both.”

Nick says he and Ellie measure their success one transaction at a time and have enjoyed considerable repeat business because of it. “There’s a family we’ve helped buy and sell a few homes,” Nick says. “During COVID when the market was going crazy, they thought they’d try selling by owner. After a couple hours of the sign being up, they called and said, ‘This is crazy, this is too much to handle right now. Will you please just get over here and take care of this?’

“ It’s not just a paycheck we’re after, it’s a relationship. Ellie does something that’s amazing; after the transaction’s over, sometimes after a few days, sometimes a few months, she’ll pick up the phone and say, ‘Are you guys doing OK? How’s the home? Is there anything I need to work on?’ It’s little things like that that set us apart and has allowed us to serve families over and over.”
