Bio
I am a lifelong resident of Gainesville. I was born in 1977 and graduated from the University of Florida in 2000 with a Bachelor Degree in Business Administration. I grew up helping my parents manage a small apartment complex performing various tasks from paperwork to yardwork and cleaning apartments. While in college I was the resident manager of the complex and in 2000 I and my father, Ropen Nalbandian, purchased another, larger complex next door. Upon graduation, I decided to remain in the family business and took on a larger role as General Manager of both apartment complexes and assuming clerical and bookkeeping duties for our various real estate companies.
Since 2000 my companies have grown, acquiring more rental assets both commercial, residential, and vacant lands for future development. We own and manage over 300,000 square feet of commercial office and warehouse spaces and 3 apartment complexes totaling 330 units.
In 2006 I married Paul Thur de Koos, who also works in our business as Managing Director of Operations and Real Estate Sales. We have 2 children together.
In addition to running 7 companies, in 2018 I earned my Real Estate Broker License and started Lexis Real Estate Group to assist in buying and selling the properties of others. I plan to continue growing the company with the goal of becoming the most knowledgeable and trusted source for real estate in Gainesville!
