Greg Nelson

★★★★★
"Choosing Greg was a great decision. As a former Realtor, I know the difference between so-so and medium and great agents, and Greg is- fortunately- the latter. He is very professional, focused, knowledgeable and- most importantly- when things can and do get complicated - he knows how to navigate tough situation. He really keeps his cool and is not afraid of working through a tough challenge (something many people are NOT good at). I think that is when an agent’s “colors” really shine. Greg really came through for us despite obstacles. Additionally, he has a great team of resources as well, which also helped make things much easier for us. We are grateful for his assistance and will be using him again. You would be well served to choose Greg for your real estate needs!"

"No matter how many ways I write this, there’s no easy way to articulate how incredible our experience was in working with Greg as our Realtor. The knowledge he was able to share with us about the market and overall home buying process speaks volumes about how his years of experience truly make him the best of the best. We looked at several homes and one of my favorite qualities that Greg brought to the process was his honesty. He was very transparent when we looked at each home, to make sure we were thinking about every unique element of the homes we toured. As first-time buyers, this was invaluable to us.

Put simply, Greg didn’t just want us to buy a home, he wanted to find us the home of our dreams, and he did just that. After a couple of months constantly keeping his eye out for us, he found us the home we didn’t think existed, our dream home! The capstone was his ability to get us in for a tour same day and then strategically write a contract that beat out multiple all cash offers, solidifying our dream as a reality.

A few words my fiancée and I would use to describe Greg and our amazing buying experience with him: Insightful, strategic, patient, honest, trustworthy, and welcoming. Greg is quite simply just awesome, and he will not only be my choice Realtor for life, but he will also be a lifelong friend "

"We met Greg at an open house; we were very impressed with him. He was very approachable and knowledgeable about the area/market, so we decided to retain him as our realtor while looking to buy a new house. Greg was very prompt and responsive in scheduling house visits and doing research on comps. He would help us with getting estimates for repairs and work needed to make the houses we were looking at to our liking. He was also very prompt in getting comps of related sales in the area to price the houses well. With his help, we were able to close a deal for a house that we liked in our budget and get the financing done on time. We recommend him highly"

"Greg Nelson is the best guy for the job. We met him at an open house: he picked up on our needs immediately. We weren’t ready to make a commitment yet, and he did not pressure us. When we were ready, he started pointing out condos in our price range that fit our needs. He was always willing to show us the units that sparked our interest. His expertise was invaluable. He knew what to offer based on the interest in the condos. He listened to us. We would not have been able to close our deal without him. He did not stop with our purchase, but continues to help us. We needed some heavy closets moved, and he arranged to get the job done before we move in. He’s attractive and his personality is likeable"

"My husband and I had been on-and-off looking at buying homes for more than a year when we met Greg. We had met and gone to look at houses with 4 different other realtors in that time. We were in a bit of a unique situation - we LOVED our condo, and didn't "need" to move. We were really only looking to see if we could find a home that was better than what we had. That meant we had a very specific list. We had stopped working with the other realtors because after viewing houses with them that didn't closely align with our wish list, we felt like we were wasting our time and theirs.

We met Greg at an open house, and immediately liked his low-key and straightforward demeanor. He asked us some questions about what we thought of the house we were at, and listened to the so-so feedback we gave him without giving us a "sales pitch." We agreed to meet to talk more to see if he could help us find a house that ticked more of our boxes than the one we had just looked at. We talked about what we liked and didn't like, and came up with a short list of properties to see. I felt comfortable that he knew "our taste" and our wishlist and was combing the MLS on our behalf - more than once he emailed us about a new house that came on the market before it came up on my radar.

He even showed us a couple houses that weren't on the market yet, and my husband and I appreciated that. Because we liked one of those houses and trusted Greg, we finally felt (somewhat) comfortable that we'd find that impossible "better than ours" house, and we agreed to list our condo.

Greg went above and beyond getting our condo listed - we'd been talking about potentially listing it for a week or so, but we only committed to listing about 3 days before the target list date. Greg was able to arrange for a photographer to come take photos the next day, got them processed that night, and did a great job creating marketing materials and marketing our unit. He took the time to learn about all the best features of our home, and made cards to describe special touches we put into our recent remodel to feature the upgraded finishes. We had a lot of interest at the two open houses he held. Less than five days after listing, we had several full-list price or above-list price offers. We were very happy that we were able to sell to a couple that already lived in the building, and Greg was instrumental in making that happen. Because they told him that they planned to make an offer, he made sure to touch back in with them to let them know we had other offers on the table and that they needed to submit an offer ASAP if they wanted a shot. We felt very fortunate selling to someone we already knew, and Greg's handling of multiple offers resulted in a sale price we were happy with.

Around the same time as the sale, we found a home that we liked enough to make an offer on. While the purchase price on the home a little more than we initially set out to spend, we never felt like Greg was only showing us houses at the top end of our budget, or that he was steering us towards choosing a more expensive house. Greg was really thoughtful and helpful in walking us through pros and cons of every house we saw, including current market considerations and future resale considerations. That made us feel more comfortable putting an offer on an "expensive" house that met our needs when we did finally find it.

Greg has also been great at answering questions and making sure everything is done on time throughout the process, which I appreciate - especially considering there was less than a week between the sale of our condo and submitting the offer on the house "
