About us
Our Story: Boldly Independent
We did not just build a real estate brokerage; we broke the mold. After years within traditional systems, our mother-daughter duo, Nadine Frees and Angela Carlin, decided to boldly step away from the local Board of Realtors. We recognized a changing landscape and chose innovation over industry convention.
By operating Frees Real Estate, LLC as a fully independent brokerage, we removed the rigid constraints that standard agencies face. We are bold, innovative, and prepared to tackle any complex challenge that comes our way. This intentional freedom ensures that your goals remain our sole focus.
Relationships Rooted in Integrity
For us, real estate is about building enduring, trust-based partnerships rather than executing quick transactions. Nadine and Angela are deeply passionate about guiding you through every step of your buying and selling journey. Our business is anchored by uncompromising ethical standards, complete honesty, and true transparency.
With over 25 years of combined experience spanning Colorado, Florida, Missouri, and Arkansas, we pair deep regional expertise with a genuine desire to protect our clients. As a locally owned, family-operated firm, we ensure your best interests always take absolute priority.
Seamless, Proactive Communication
We believe that exceptional results require a foundation of trust. We maintain strong, clear, and proactive communication between our agents and clients at all times. You will never have to wonder where you stand in the process. We ensure you are informed, empowered, and confident from your initial consultation to the closing table.
Real Estate On Your Terms: Our Menu of Services
You should only pay for the professional support you actually need. Traditional brokerages often lock consumers into rigid contracts and fixed, high commission structures. At Frees Real Estate, LLC, we do things differently by offering a flexible, a la carte menu of services for delegated fees. This model delivers true financial and operational independence to both buyers and sellers.
You control how you navigate the market:
A La Carte Support: Secure specific professional assistance, such as contract reviews, market pricing analysis, or targeted marketing strategies.
Partial Guidance: Retain expert counsel for specific phases of a transaction without committing to full-term agent representation.
Full-Service Management: Outsource your entire purchase or sale to our team for comprehensive, start-to-finish execution.
