About Nick Matiasevich

Growing up in Aptos, I’ve always believed that the places we live shape who we become. For me, this community has been more than just a hometown—it’s been my classroom, my foundation, and now, the driving force behind my career in real estate. From knowing which local trails catch the best sunrise to the hidden gems perfect for a quiet date night, I’ve spent my life learning the rhythms, character, and culture of Santa Cruz County. That familiarity gives my clients a unique advantage: I don’t just help them buy or sell a home—I help them find the lifestyle that truly fits them.

My professional journey started early at Gayle’s Bakery, where I learned the value of showing up, serving people well, and taking pride in the details. Those lessons carried me into the dental field, where I spent years helping patients navigate important decisions, easing fears, explaining complex treatment plans, and building trust with every interaction. In a field where communication and empathy matter just as much as expertise, I discovered how much I enjoyed guiding people through meaningful life changes. That same skillset translates seamlessly into real estate.

Beyond work, I’ve always been involved in local events and community gatherings—whether lending a hand at neighborhood fundraisers or supporting programs that strengthen our coastal towns. Being connected and contributing to the fabric of this community is something I take seriously.

Today, as a REALTOR® with Strock Real Estate, I bring all of that with me: a deep love for this area, a service-first mentality, and a genuine excitement to help people plant roots here. Whether someone is searching for their first home, selling with big dreams ahead, or relocating for a new chapter, I’m committed to making the process clear, comfortable, and personalized.

Real estate isn’t just a career for me—it’s an opportunity to serve the community that raised me. And I’m proud to help others find their place in it.
