About Abel Contreras

Abel Contreras came from humble beginnings. After growing up in a small town in the Central Valley, Abel was blessed with a once in a lifetime opportunity to attend Cal Poly San Luis Obispo on a full-ride academic scholarship funded by Bill and Melinda Gates. During his time there, Abel studied advanced sales and marketing courses in the Orfalea College of Business. Naturally, Abel fell in love with the Central Coast and decided to pursue his passion in a career in real estate. Abel is a part of the top real estate company in the world, Keller Williams Realty International and the number one brokerage in the region, Keller Williams Central Coast. Abel has quickly risen to the top and has reached the top 20% of his company. Due to Abel's success in the business and his immense leadership skills, he has been elected to sit on the Agent Leadership Council setting the example for other agents in the company. Abel has also been nominated as the California Association of Realtors "Rising Star" in the region. Abel has created his own real estate team through Keller Williams, Invest SLO, specializing in residential listing sales, time and time again helping sellers net more money bottom line than the competition. Invest SLO has a unique marketing plan that puts clients first. The expertise of who represents you when selling can make the difference of tens of thousands and often times, hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Its so refreshing when a man says what hes going to do and actually does it. Abels word is a good as gold and he has a team behind him that is just as good. I was blessed with the best working with Nicole. She is truly a gem. Selling my house was so easy with Nicole leading the way. I would be lost without her. I highly recommend Abel and Nicole .

Selling a house is a complicated process, and having someone who really knows the market and can navigate the procedures makes a huge difference. Abel Contreras clearly knows the local real estate market, and is thoroughly professional in his approach. And his team, especially Nicole Nilsson, made the process so much easier than it would have been without them. They get the job done.

Hannah and her team are amazing. My home selling had a lot of moving parts and not only did they handle it in stride they were so kind and understanding. I was very skeptical hiring them at first but that quickly went away. Also their response time is amazing. I never was left wondering what was happening. These people truly have a heart of gold and put their clients first:) I adore them:) thank you!! -Tari:)
