Kansas City’s Highest-Rated Real Estate Team on Google
When someone is deciding who to trust with the biggest financial decision of their life, they deserve proof, not promises. Nelson Home Group, Keller Williams KC North is the highest-rated real estate team in Kansas City on Google, with more than 1,200 five-star reviews. Additionally, in the RealTrends Verified 2026 rankings, we were named the number one team in Kansas City for homes sold, with 153 transaction sides independently confirmed. The reviews on this page are not curated marketing copy. They are the public record.
Rankings can measure different things, and ours measures families served. RealTrends ranked us first by transaction sides — the count of buyers and sellers we actually got to the closing table — rather than by chasing the biggest price tags. Many of those closings were first-time buyers and military families using the VA loan. That is the business we built, and it is the reason the reviews below read the way they do.
Every review below is from a real client, and the full record is public. Read their stories here, then verify us on Google for yourself. When you are ready, reach out or call us at 816-680-6624 — we will treat your move like it is the only one we have.

Joe Nelson went above and beyond helping us market and sell a home in KC for our son who was on military deployment. Joe’s team and expert advice helped facilitate a smooth sale. Nelson Group was an excellent partner especially because we had to do all this from a different state. I highly recommend Joe!
Casey Kempter from the Home Nelson Group provided an outstanding home-buying experience from start to finish. We purchased a downtown condo in Kansas City relocating from California, and Casey made the entire process smooth and stress-free.
He was always quick to answer our questions, paid close attention to every request and detail, and was extremely accommodating throughout the process — even when we decided to change lenders and use a VA loan. His knowledge of VA requirements and downtown Kansas City condo living was invaluable. He is even going above and beyond after closing by helping us out with move-in logistics.
Michelle with Nelson Home Group is absolutely THE BEST! She helped us sell our home in less than 24 hours and guided us through the process of closing on our new build in Kearney.
From start to finish, she was always available to answer our questions, address concerns, and help us navigate every step of the process. She was incredibly organized, proactive, and always stayed on top of things. Buying and selling a home can be stressful, but Michelle made the entire experience so smooth and seamless.
Katy Gaines is an absolutely phenomenal real estate agent. Relocating from San Diego all the way to Kansas City could have been daunting, but Katy made it feel effortless. She listened to exactly what I was looking for, kept me updated throughout the entire process, and made sure I never felt rushed or pressured. Her deep knowledge of the Kansas City market, her incredible attention to detail, and the genuine care she showed for me and my family made all the difference. Thanks to Katy, I found the perfect home (twice LOL) and actually enjoyed the process along the way.
We couldn’t recommend Joe and his team enough. A little backstory: we previously signed a listing agreement with another agent. Our house sat on the market for over 100 days, only had a handful of showings and only one open house. After finally having enough, we canceled with that agent and signed over with Joe and his team to list our home. After less than one week of being on the market with him, we were under contract and scheduled to close less than a month later. Who you list with matters and costs you money. Do yourself a favor and just list and sell with Joe!!
All I can say is “Awesome Team”! Not only did they sell our house at above asking price, but negotiated $5000 in savings in closing on a brand new build for us! Josh Seitz was an all star! Went the extra mile for us! Joe and his team were professional, very kind and always ready to answer questions and go to bat!
Joe was an amazing realtor for us. We were selling an out of state property and needed a true professional to take this on. Joe was so diligent on every step of this process. Being an investment property it had some additional challenges and he did everything with professionalism and in a timely manner. This experience was everything we had hoped for with Joe!
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. Because of his diligence I am moving into my own home again. Nelson Home Group is Veteran owned and I am extremely proud to call Nelson Home Group and especially Casey MY realtor.
Easy from start to finish! We contacted Joe to sell our home after being unsuccessful with another agent. Joe and his team were fast, professional and quick to answer any questions. We firmly believe we wouldn’t have been able to sell as fast as we did without the Nelson Home Group!
Joe helped me get into an incredible house 8+ years ago and he and his stellar team came in clutch when it was time to sell it. Professional from start to finish. Thank you!!!

If you’re looking for a dedicated realtor that truly listens to the criteria of the homes you’re looking for and keeps you in the loop on each new home that hits the market within said criteria, then Casey Kempter is definitely who you’re looking for. Casey was on the ball morning, noon, or night, replying to our emails and giving us his insight on properties we had in question. After looking at a number of properties, Casey helped us seal the deal on our home! We will absolutely recommend Casey to anyone of our friends and family that are looking to buy or sell, and I know that when we are ready to sell our next home, we will not hesitate to reach out to Casey! 10/10 would recommend!!

Joe and his staff were wonderful to work with. Thanks to their quick responses, my offer on a house was accepted less than 24 hours after it hit the market. I trusted Joe to give me an honest assessment because I was out of state and therefore had to make an offer, sight unseen. He toured many houses for me, showing me around on FaceTime and sending pics. Joe will work hard for you and won’t lead you astray.

Joe Nelson handled the sale of one house for us and the purchase of another. Throughout the entire process he was always available to us, handled every detail with complete attention and professionalism and gave us great advice. The house we sold brought more than the asking price and we were able to buy the new house in a competitive situation due to Joe’s expert handling of our bid. On top of that he is a kind and pleasant person to work with, and was so good at making sure we always knew what was going on. I would give him my highest recommendation as an agent, and I have confidence that the team he has assembled at Nelson Home Group share the same values.

Nelson Home Group is amazing. My fiance and I decided to sell my house a few months ago. We thought it would be some quick updates and onto the market. It turned out to be longer than expected. Throughout the process Joe and his team were so patient and understanding. Never once were the pushy or overbearing. Joe sat down with us and explained the entire process, as this was our first time selling a home. Joe and his team were always available to answer all of our questions. They always put our minds at ease and were extremely professional. They worked around our very busy schedule and helped get us to the finish line. I would highly recommend Nelson Home Group to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you Joe!
