MORE THAN REAL ESTATE
THE NOBS PROCESS
1
The Connection
We don’t guess. We align to your needs. Start by filling out your Wish List so we can analyze your specific buying or long-term rental requirements. We follow up with a free online consultation to discuss the market reality and decide if we’re a good fit. We explain the legal and logistical steps for acquiring or leasing property upfront, so you know exactly what to expect before spending a dime.
2
Digital Research
We value your time and ours. Whether you want to buy or rent long-term, we perform in-depth, AI-assisted digital research to filter out the bad apples. We call sellers to verify missing details and deliver a report on transportation, neighborhoods, schools, and distances, so you only consider the winners. This digital vetting prevents wasted trips and saves you thousands by ensuring you only visit viable properties.
3
The Deep Dive
Select your favorites. We sign a representation contract and go boots-on-the-ground. We provide 360° imaging, video walkthroughs, and drone footage so you see every angle. We talk to neighbors, review legal documentation, and coordinate technical inspections. Finally, we can organize a Romanian discovery tour or vacation itinerary so you can enjoy visiting your selected locations.
4
Closing the Deal
We secure the property. We negotiate the purchase price or monthly rent using market data, often covering our success fee through the savings alone. We handle translations, manage the Notary or lease signing process, and provide a Total Cost Estimation so there are no surprises. Post-transaction, we can assist with renovations or property management.
WHY NOBS
Our Journey Home
Transylvanian Roots. International Experience.
Meet Tom & Cristina. We are a husband and wife team, natives of Transylvania. We spent 20 years chasing our dreams abroad. We worked full-time careers while building a real estate portfolio across three US states—renting, owning, and managing properties in Georgia, Colorado, Montana and now Transylvania.
For six years, we also owned and operated a hospitality business near Glacier National Park in Montana. We weren't absentee owners. We led a team of employees, managed the retail store and rental shop, and handled the marketing and operations directly. We learned firsthand how to spot a solid investment and how to manage the complexities of both remote and on-site ownership.
In 2023, family needs and a desire for a more grounded life brought us back home to Transylvania. We reconnected with old friends and rediscovered the region's potential: improving infrastructure, world-class internet connectivity, high quality of life, and unmatched value.
Why trust us? Because we are in the trenches with you. We have experienced the exact journey you are considering. When we first returned, we rented a house that looked perfect, until we discovered hidden defects in the sewage and water systems. That due diligence saved us from a bad purchase. Today, we are building a custom home in Transylvania and renovating a log cabin in the mountains. We deal with Romanian contractors, notaries, and permits every day.
We founded NOBS Consulting to share that hard-won experience. We noticed a gap in the local market: Transparency and Fiduciary Care. As a buyer, you need someone to represent you, not the seller. We are here to fill that gap. We employ AI technology for comprehensive market search and reporting, but we vet every single result with a human in the loop.
