Personal Profile

I belong to a network of over 140,000 professionals who take pride in what they do and specialize in providing a variety of superior real estate services to local communities around the world. Understanding your personal goals and needs is at the heart of my dedication to you. Originally from IL, I have lived and worked in NWI since 1997 with my husband, 2 kids and dogs. After a very bad home buying experience in 1987 I knew there had to be a better way. Several years (and 2 kids) later, I decided to give real estate a try. I started my real estate career in 1994 and was named "Rookie of the Year". I haven't looked back. This is not a job for me. This is my passion and I love what I do and can't image doing anything else. Seeing the excitement in someone's face when they walk into "THE" house or telling a seller that I have an offer for them makes this a very fulfilling career for me. In my free time I enjoy volunteering my time to plan, organize and run various events. Call me today for a no pressure consultation to discuss how I might assist you with your home buying or selling needs.

  • Seller review
    Shirley did everything I needed. Knowing that my property was of low value because of the house being unlivable, Shirley still helped me out greatly and accomplished everything I needed since my house is in Indiana and I lived in Alabama. She always kept me up to date and always guided me in how things are. Treated me with dignity and of value even with house not being worth the time for other realtors Excellent, Respectful and Honorable I was very pleased and thankful to Shirley Nivens. Since house was very old, basically of no value, Shirley took on the task to help me out and I think that many other realtors would had passed me by since house was not worth their time of day. Shirley took it on and helped me deeply... I am very very thankful and honored to be treated with respect. As I have said, I feel many other realtors would had passed me up since house was not of any value, only the land was. Shirley came to the plate and helped me greatly in my life
  • Buyer review
    Shirley Niven is honest hard working and very professional. I'm pleased with the closings that I done with her. I highly recommend her to any body selling or buying a home cause she is the best in Northwest Indiana area.
  • Seller review
    We knew that Shirley Niven was highly recommended and sought her out to sell the property. Marketing was professional and attractive on the listing. It highlighted the positive aspects of the property. Shirley Niven is a model of what you expect for a seasoned agent. Her experience and professionalism was great from initial review of property before sale through the closing. Upon excepting offer to close Shirley Niven guidance was great and made the experience much less stressful than it would have been without her calm and confident support.
  • Buyer review
    Shirley was amazing! Understood what we were looking for and didn't waste our time showing us homes we would not care about seeing.
  • Buyer review
    Working with Shirley Niven was a pleasure. As a first time homebuyer, she listened to my needs and wants in a home. Within a couple of hours of our first conversation, she had already sent me a long list of homes that seemed to fit my needs. There was nothing that Shirley was lacking. She treated me as if I was a family member searching for a home. She took time to point out any things that she thought might be a problem for homes I was considering. Shirley's response time and amount of communication was excellent. One of the reasons I was able to close very quickly on the home that I wanted was because Shirley worked quickly to fill out contracts and send them to me. I didn't have to constantly remind her to do things we had discussed. And she was even on vacation during part of the process which could have slowed things down, but it did not.
  • Buyer review
    I am a first time home buyer in an area with no family. I was looking for a realtor that not only dealt with the home, but also provided me their own personal and professional advice. Shirley made sure she was looking out for my best interests. When we looked at properties, she pointed out pros and cons and never made me feel she was just trying to get the sale. Feeling comfortable that my agent was looking out for me was vital to my selection. Shirley walked me through the steps carefully and made sure I understood exactly what was happening at each point. She genuinely made me feel she was treating me like she would her own family. I never once felt confused on where I was in the process and if I ever had questions, she got back to me in a very timely manner. Overall, I feel not only grateful, but blessed that Shirley and I crossed paths. I can't imagine having a smoother first time buying experience and I am forever appreciative of everything she did to help make my dream of owning a home come true.
