Our Story
The Beginning
Nicholas Cook's interest in real estate began long before starting Sleep Sound Property Management, Inc. Growing up, Nicholas wanted to build a future where he could someday help support his brother, who has special needs.
After reading Rich Dad Poor Dad as a teenager, he became fascinated by the idea that real estate could create long-term financial freedom. That goal led him to discover real estate investing at a young age and ultimately shaped his career.
At 19 years old Nicholas started his first real estate business, Intuition Real Estate Group, Inc. This business focused on purchasing and renovating properties throughout the Portland area.
While growing his own portfolio, Nicholas experienced firsthand what many rental property owners still experience today: poor communication, outdated systems, and property managers who weren't making decisions like true fiduciaries. He believed owners deserved better.
Sleep Sound was founded on two simple ideas.
- Raise the standard for professional property management.
- Help property owners build long-term wealth through better operations and better decisions.
Every system we build starts with one questions;
"If this were our property, how would we manage it?"
- Extremely detailed move-in documentation that benefits owner and tenant.
- Multiple interior inspections to catch issues and coach residents on best practices.
- Customer experiences for residents that lead to renewals.
Over the years, Sleep Sound has earned a strong reputation throughout the Portland and Vancouver markets and has been recognized with multiple Multifamily NW ACE Awards for excellence in property management.
Although we've grown over the years, the philosophy that inspired Sleep Sound remains the same.
Treat every property as if it were our own. Protect every investment as if it were our own. Earn every client's trust every day.
