Real estate is a family matter for Missy Hileman. Her professionalism, communication skills and passion to help families find the perfect home in the New Tampa/Wesley Chapel area is what makes Hileman a top-producing residential Realtor for Century 21 Bill Nye Realty, located on S.R. 54, just east of Wesley Chapel in Zephyrfhills.
“I’m a hands-on Realtor,” Hileman says. “It’s important to me that I return every phone call or email I receive from current and potential clients.”
Hileman received her Realtor license when she was just out of high school, but she admits she learned about professionalism through her exposure to the real estate industry early in life — from her parents, Bill and Andrea Nye, who have owned and operated Century 21 Bill Nye Realty since 1977.
“Obviously, it’s in my blood,” says Hileman.
The leadership skills, confidence and determination she gained through her role as Captain of her Division I collegiate soccer team at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) in Boca Raton, where Hileman played for four years, resonates with her clients.
Dawn, a Lutz resident and satisfied Hileman client, says, “Missy is amazing at making sure all bases are covered. She will exhaust all resources until a resolution is achieved. We would never have closed on our house without the persistence Missy displayed. We were blessed to have her on our side!”
Hileman says she is diligent throughout the entire process of purchasing or selling a home — and her clients say that diligence shows.
Kellie, an Arbor Greene resident, says, “Missy is an absolute miracle worker! Through her, we bought a new home and sold our home within 45 days!” Hileman says she stays abreast of all homes newly listed in the area and notes that because houses are not staying on the market very long, home buyers need to be one of the first few to view a home that’s newly listed on the market.
Hileman is optimistic about the future of real estate. Currently, in the New Tampa/Wesley Chapel area, she says, the housing market is trending upward with a low inventory.
“Houses are appraising higher and selling quickly, which is great for anyone selling a home,” Hileman says, adding that pricing a house to sell is a key factor in a quick sale.
“If a house stays on the market for more than three weeks right now, then the house is not priced right for the area,” she says.
Hileman also says that potential clients should not be scared off by the Zephyrhills address of the Century 21 Bill Nye regional office.
“When I decided to go full force into real estate more than five years ago, I wanted to stay close to my home and family, so we branched out to the New Tampa/Wesley Chapel area,” Hileman says. “It just made sense to stay in my own community where I know so many families.”
Hileman is a Realtor who knows her community and has a keen sense of what a family is looking for in a home.
“Missy is like a bulldog with a smile,” says Christy, a Hunter’s Green resident. “She used her vast knowledge of real estate and her own experience as a mother, wife and active professional to help our family begin a new life and realize a dream, (and can do the same for you), whether you’re buyers or sellers.”
More Than Just A Realtor
In addition to being one of the top producers at the Century 21 Bill Nye Realty office, Hileman also is a licensed physical therapist who works with rehabbing patients at the new Florida Hospital Wesley Chapel (FHWC). Born and raised in the Tampa Bay area, Hileman has a Master’s degree in physical therapy from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale and is passionate about children and their families. Missy and her husband Scott have three children of their own and are active members in the New Tampa community.
Scott also works in the family business — on the commercial side, where he specializes in land brokerage and development at Nye Commercial Advisors in Wesley Chapel. Formerly a professional indoor soccer player for nine years, Scott continued to play the last few years of his career while obtaining his MBA in Finance from the Loyola University Sellinger School of Business & Management in Baltimore, MD.
Scott is one of three Certified Commercial Investment Members at Nye Commercial Advisors and also an Accredited Land Consultant through Realtors Land Institute since 2006. Plus, he was a member of the 2012 Class of Leadership Tampa Bay. He has been involved in Rotary since 2004, and is a past president of the New Tampa Noon Rotary Club, where he is still a member of the Board and has participated in and has organized many events to support local, regional and national charities.
Nye Commercial Advisors is a full service commercial real estate brokerage firm owned by Missy’s father, Bill Nye. Nye Commercial offers a wide range of services including: land brokerage, investment sales, buyer representation, tenant representation, leasing, property management and development services.
Truly a family business, Hileman’s brother, Brent Nye, also works at Nye Commercial Advisors, and her sister Molly is the office manager for Century 21 Bill Nye Realty in Zephyrhills.
Missy and Scott and the entire Nye family pride themselves on family and community involvement. She stays active with running, and clients often will see her at Flatwoods Park, and the entire family has participated in local road races.
Missy has volunteered as a soccer coach through the New Tampa Family YMCA, has helped with local clean-up details with the New Tampa Noon Rotary, and often can be seen using her physical therapy skills as a service to local kids in need. She has been a member of St. James United Methodist Church in Tampa Palms with her family since she was in college.
