Terry L. Mikels, a native of High Point, received his B.A. from North Carolina State University in 1979. His sales career began with the Burroughs Corporation in Raleigh. In 1984, Terry’s interest in commercial real estate led him to begin his career with Synco Properties, a regional real estate syndicator headquartered in Charlotte. He was introduced to the leasing market with Synco and after two years he established his own tenant representation firm, Mikels Properties. In 1990, Terry welcomed Reid Jones as a partner to form Mikels & Jones Properties, and their success as a team has lead to a more diverse offering of services to their clients. As a partner in Mikels & Jones Properties, Terry continues to work the leasing, brokerage, and income property markets.
In 2004, Terry was recognized by his peers as the winner of the Presidents Circle Award, an annual award given by the Triangle Commercial Association of Realtors to the member who gives back to the community. Terry and his family have been involved with many civic organizations in Raleigh, including Hilltop Home, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Young Life, Mira Foundation (provider of service dogs for the blind). Terry currently serves as a local board member for North State Bank. Terry enjoys hunting, fishing, golf and is an avid hobby farmer.
Terry and his wife, Juana, are very active in the ministries of Capital Community Church and have four children, Blair, John Charles, Alex and Mary Elizabeth. They have lived in Raleigh since 1975.
