Tanya Neilsen-Lester

About Me

Tanya has over 20 years of combined customer service experience and a strong network of clients and referrals. Tanya's strengths include educating clients throughout the homebuying/selling process and connecting with them on a personal level. As a REALTOR®, she makes homeownership a reality for home buyers and successfully finds qualified buyers for clients selling their homes.

She has 3 amazing kids that keep her busy— an oldest daughter is in college, her middle son just graduated high school and is entering the work force, and her youngest daughter is a Sophomore in High school and loves to cheer competitively. When Tanya isn't working, she loves to take trips with her husband in their Sprinter Van, hang out in the woods, hike, and camp. She loves looking up at a full sky of stars. She'd love to get back into competing in power lifting competitions as well as shooting archery.

Tanya is the 2021 and 2022 President of Navy League Tacoma and loves to volunteer for the USO. She is the past Board President of the Greater Maple Valley Black Diamond Chamber of Commerce and served on the board for 6 years, as well as is a past board member of the East King County Coalition of Chambers of Commerce and the 2021 President of Women's Council of Realtors South King County. She is a member of the Covington Chamber of Commerce and Greater Maple Valley Black Diamond Chamber of Commerce and actively donates to The Marine Corp Scholarship foundation, Always Brothers, Greater Maple Valley Veterans Memorial Foundation, and Children's Hospital Miracle Network, just to name a few.
