Meet Nick
Your 24/7 real estate tour guide.
I’m a Delaware native, and my job is to keep buying and selling straightforward while making sure you get the best price possible. While you’re up at night thinking about your next home, I’m double-checking that every step of the transaction is on schedule.
I also speak investor. I own small multi-family properties in Wilmington and have house-hacked myself, so I can help you run the rents, expenses and financing, not just tour the house. And I know construction, so I’ll point out the repairs worth worrying about and the ones that aren’t.

What clients say
My husband and I have bought and sold a number of homes, and therefore have a fair amount of experience with realtors. Nick Rybinski is far and away the best professional we have ever worked with. He is smart, knows the market for your property (very specifically) and always gives honest, clear and relevant advice. We recently listed our home with Nick and found ourselves in a bit of a troubled market. Suddenly interest rates were climbing and we worried that there would be fewer buyers. Nick handled the situation masterfully, securing solid offers and back up offers. When the first “buyer” backed out, Nick immediately went to work to solidify the most secure back up and guided us through several impediments to the deal, keeping it together and very valuable to us.
We talked with a few realtors before deciding to go with Nick to buy our first home. He was attentive, flexible with scheduling showings, and always available to answer our (many) questions. What sold us and turned out to be a huge benefit was Nick’s knowledge of construction, remodeling, and generally how to identify necessary repairs in homes that we might have otherwise overlooked. Even though we were stressed out about waiting on offer results, Nick reassured us without pushing us to overextend. Cannot recommend him enough for first time buyers, residential construction novices, and really anyone looking to buy or sell a home in DE or PA.
I had a great first time home buying experience with Nick. We shopped around in a pretty tough market; saw many homes and placed several bids until we landed on the winner. Nick made us feel super comfortable and at ease, especially when it felt like winning a bid was impossible. He genuinely cares about his clients and looks out for them in the negotiation process.
Nick was personal and professional throughout the entire process of searching for a home. He offered a lot of helpful insight when touring homes. Would absolutely recommend Nick to anyone in the Wilmington area searching for their new home!
Nick was a great realtor & followed up with us to help us as we needed.
