These guys don’t mess around! Sold my house in 2 days and got $15,000 over asking price. They told me what they were going to do and they did exactly that. They stayed in constant contact with me.
Joe Nelson went above and beyond helping us market and sell a home in KC for our son who was on military deployment. Nelson Group was an excellent partner especially because we had to do all this from a different state.
Moving from Idaho to Missouri with a young family for a job is stressful enough — it’s solid to know you have a whole team working on your behalf to get you and your family settled into your new home!
Just purchased my first home with the help of Nelson Home Group and these guys are awesome! Incredibly helpful and patient through the whole process and got me into the home I wanted even sooner than I imagined.
I have not purchased a home in a long time and everything is different now. Casey was super patient, a wealth of information, and so kind. Nelson Home Group is Veteran owned and I am extremely proud to call Casey MY realtor.
My wife and I went through Michelle to buy a house and sell our house and she was great! Michelle was able to sell our house in just a couple of days and got us a perfect house for us to live in at a bargain!
Joe recently lent me his expertise in working through land research, and continues to bring me appropriate investment deals. I cherish his guidance in finding the right deals that fit my parameters.
I had the pleasure of working with Michelle Neely while buying my first home. She was super helpful and very responsive throughout the whole process. She gave me a lot of good advice and helped me to find the perfect home for me.
Had a fantastic buying and selling experience with this Realty company. Sold our house in 2 days for more than the asking price. Excellent realtor and staff. Would highly recommend them to all my friends and family.
Read all 1,200+ reviews on Google, 167 on Zillow, or 44 recommendations on Facebook.
The pattern in 640 Google reviews.
Share of the 640 most-relevant Google reviews (of 1,292) that mention each theme, analyzed September 2026. Google’s own review topics agree: “home buying process” (80), “finding a home” (51), “easy process” (37), “first home purchase” (22), “responsive staff” (22).
Clients talk about expertise first. One in three reviews mentions market knowledge or experience — more than any other theme, and before anyone gets to how friendly we were.
They name their agent. Most reviews credit a specific person — Joe, Michelle, Katy, Casey, Josh — which is exactly how we want it. You’re hiring a person, backed by a team.
Sellers talk about speed. “Sold in 2 days,” “within a week,” “over asking” recur across seller reviews.
Buyers talk about patience. First-time buyers especially describe being walked through the process without pressure.
