Nan Thornqvist

I was born and raised in North Carolina and graduated with a degree in Public Relations from UNC-Chapel Hill, where I met my husband, Roland. We came to Gainesville in 2001 when my husband was hired as the University of Florida's Head Women's Tennis Coach. I have been a middle and high school teacher and assistant principal, and received my doctorate in education from UF. I thoroughly enjoyed helping students and educators at UF for several years, but my new passion is using what I have learned raising my family here to help others navigate the buying and selling of their home! I love helping connect buyers and sellers, and taking the stress out of the process. My role is to help anticipate and meet your needs in the purchase or sale of your property, and to be your own personal expert and trouble-shooter—if I don’t know the answer, I will find it!

When I’m not selling real estate, I love spending time with my husband and two daughters, Maclaine and Whitney (currently at UF)-- attending UF athletic events, fishing at Lake Santa Fe or Cedar Key, and watching scary movies. Let me know if I can help with any real estate questions you have!
