About Us

After 19 years working with IBM with various roles of project management, sales, education and as a first line manager, Mike found his ultimate dream job as a REALTOR® with Keller Williams Realty in Longmont, CO where he was born and raised and was licensed working part time in May of 2013. This venture not only allowed him the freedom to support the military as an enlisted member but also help military Veterans find homes. Mike became a full time Agent in October and spent his first 12 months in real estate as an independent agent project planning his long term goals in this business, rather than just selling homes. He knew that he wanted to do more than just help buyers, sellers, and investors complete their next journey; he wanted to help other agents become successful and build lives worth living and he did just that throughout the coming years.

The year the “Mike Nelson Team” was founded. Mike was overwhelmed with how many families he had the opportunity to help buy, sell, or invest in real estate and he knew it was time to bring on another agent to help him provide top notch value and service to his clients. He also knew that this would be the stepping stone into his long-term goals of helping other agents build lives worth living. With the immense support of his wife and son, Mike and his buyer’s agent were able to increase their sales year over year and close out with $10mil in sales volume. Mike said, “we can do more” (of course he did.. he’s a visionary) so Traci helped him refine their systems and processes even more in order to continue this growth model.

Knowing that he wanted to help others build lives worth living since his start in real estate, Mike decided that now was a good time to continue the growth of the organization at large since he had 3-4 years of solid experience in building the Mike Nelson Team and agents around him. He brought on an administrative assistant, Brooke, to allow his wife, Traci, more time to take care of the business finances and home life which falls in line with his motto – God, Family, and Business. The role of this new assistant was to build systems and processes in order to allow for an expansion model in the coming year. As a future key leader in the organization, this hire was considered Mike’s “right hand” and they continued to build the Mike Nelson Team and eventually, the Integrity Home Group Network. Mike and the team increased the business to $20mil in sales volume and loved every minute of it.

During this year, the team spent time refining systems and processes with our first expansion location in Colorado Springs while maintaining our production in Longmont. We knew that we wanted to quickly expand to even more locations throughout Colorado, and we also wanted to ensure that we did it correctly in order to make it sustainable. With that said, we went on the hunt for more talent in order to continue providing the same if not better value to our agents and clients as our “think bigger” mentality got even bigger. We hired a Transaction Coordinator, promoted our current administrative assistant to a Director of Operations, and opened two more locations in North Denver, CO and Arvada, CO with more to follow soon after. As a common trend throughout the years, Mike wanted to do more so he engrained himself into additional opportunities that Keller Williams had to offer. He became a MAPS coach where he was able to mentor other real estate agents across the Nation while also coaching the team members within Integrity Home Group and The Mike Nelson Team. Throughout this year, we made massive strides and it was shown to the real estate community through an award we received ranking us in the top 1% of more than 1.4 million REALTORS® nationwide. Mike and the network closed out the year with $43mil in sales volume and many families helped in securing their next journey.
