Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of working alongside Debbie Nelson and Nelson Mountain Real Estate for a mutual client, and the experience was outstanding. Debbie was professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Her communication, market knowledge, and dedication to the client made collaboration seamless. It’s clear she genuinely cares about providing exceptional service and advocating for her clients’ best interests. I would gladly work with Debbie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy real estate professional.

Fantastic experience: Marco Galvez sold our condo in Copper Mountain Colorado this winter. We live in New Orleans so I needed someone that I could trust to do the job and he did so in spades! He assessed the condo and provided folks to clean and to make necessary repairs.. He did a great job staging the property. When the first offer fell through due to lenders issues, he seamlessly put out feelers and relisted the condo resulting in a quick sell. Marco worked closely with the mortgage company and closing folks so that we were well prepared for the remote act of sale. I’m very happy that I found Nelson Mountain real estate and Marco Galvez!

Thank you for your kind words, Jean. Marco is a diligent worker who never stops caring for the best interest of his clients. I'm so glad your experience was a positive one! We feel very fortunate that Marco is part of our team!! Congrats on the sale! And, I'm looking forward to visiting NOLA at the end of February!!

Fantastic experience: We cannot recommend Debbie at Nelson Walley Real Estate enough. We just finished a long, two-year journey selling our condo in Wilderness, and Debbie was incredible every step of the way. Our situation was far from easy. We were dealing with a tough market and significant issues with our condo complex. When we first listed, Debbie found us a buyer quickly, but when that sale fell through due to the complex’s issues, she didn't give up. While some agents might have backed away from such a difficult listing, Debbie stayed completely engaged, communicative, and supportive for two years. She was also a great negotiator. When we finally secured a buyer, she fought hard to ensure we maximized the value of the final deal, which was crucial for us after such a long wait. The most amazing part, however, was her integrity. Because of market conditions, we had to sell well below our purchase price. Without us even asking, Debbie voluntarily reduced her fee to help us out. That kind of character is rare. If you are looking to buy or sell in Summit County, you need Debbie on your team.

Greg,
Thanks you so much for such a kind testimonial. It was definitely a challenging sale, but you and Stephanie stuck with it. I really appreciated your understanding of the market and also how well you both communicated with me. Best of luck to you both!!

Fantastic experience: This review is overdue, but I wanted to post about the incredibly positive experience we had working with Nelson Walley to purchase a condo at Copper Mountain in the winter of 2024/25. Marco was our primary contact, although we did have a chance to talk and work with others at the agency as well. Marco was simply fantastic from beginning to end through the whole process. He responded immediately to all emails and texts, and checked in regularly to see if we had questions or if there was anything else he could do to help. In particular, we were focused on buying in a specific building at Copper and he contacted everyone in his network to help us find a suitable unit to buy. He was able to find a seller for us in only about a week, and then helped make the whole process extremely smooth. I would highly recommend both Marco and Nelson Walley for real estate needs in Summit County.

Thank you for the kind words, Jenn. We feel so fortunate to have Marco as part of our team. He is dedicated to his career and never stops working in the best interest of his clients. It was so nice to meet both of you - we hope you are enjoying your new Copper Mountain condo!!

Fantastic experience: Working with Debbie Nelson has been one of the best experiences of our home-buying journey. She helped our family navigate the purchase of a local deed-restricted home with care, clarity, and professionalism. Her commitment to supporting the local workforce is evident and deeply appreciated. Debbie stayed ahead of every detail—flagging potential issues, guiding us through the contract process, and ensuring everything stayed on track. She and her team (Marco and Ned - also AMAZING) stepped in to help us address several move-in challenges left by the previous owners, making a stressful situation much more manageable. We’re now working with Debbie to sell our previous home, and the level of service continues to be exceptional. She's knowledgeable, reliable, and someone you want on your side throughout any real estate transaction and in life. As co-broker of the best real estate team in Summit County, Debbie sets the standard for what great service should look like. We recommend her, Ned and Marco without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell—especially those who value integrity, responsiveness, and true local expertise. Thank you Debbie! Best, Mahlon & Zane

Fantastic experience: We have begun working with Debbie and can't speak highly enough of her authenticity, openness and honesty. She Took AMAZING care of us and put a lot of time into helping us understand the area. I am thrilled to be on this journey with her and her company.

Carrie Houck Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Deb and Ned did an amazing job listing our home. Even in a market with many homes listed in Blue River we had an offer before I even knew our home was listed on the MLS - 5 hours to be exact - and under contract the same day! From start to finish they were professional, ever so helpful and provided invaluable guidance through the process. We would highly recommend Deb and Ned, and their whole team, for your purchase or listing.

Pati Hamilton Published on Google

Fantastic experience: After 23 years of mountain living, my husband and I reluctantly decided the time had come to relocate. That meant leaving the home we built and did our best to fill with plenty of love and lots of laughter. As silly as it may sound, it was important to us that whichever realtor we selected understood the emotional investment we had made in our home as well as the financial. Enter Debbie and Ned. Hands down their initial presentation was the most professional and polished of everyone we interviewed. After we signed on, their attention to detail and their marketing skills, in particular, were topnotch. They know and understand the market and work hand-in-hand with the seller to a satisfactory end. We can't thank them enough for the care they took in helping us let go of one dream so that we could happily embrace the next.

Dave Schmitt Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Debbie and Ned were fantastic to work with. While we had been vacationing in Summit County for more than 20 years, they explained our options at a much deeper level than we previously understood. They toured lots of homes with us, some at very short notice (thank you!). And once we had a clear understanding of what was important to us and what was in our price range, they zeroed in on our options and helped us negotiate a great deal. And they've been a huge help as we got the house set up! I would highly recommend them if you are looking for a house in Summit County.

Paula Romero Schmitt Published on Google

Lisa Whatley Published on Google

Fantastic experience: We have worked with Ned and Debbie over the past several years buying and selling multiple properties in Summit County. We just sold our last property that we owned which was our beautiful custom home. Debbie and Ned did an excellent job marketing and advertising our home to the public and local realtors. Ned and Debbie (and their staff) are friendly and super easy to work with during the process. We have a strong business and personal relationship with both Ned and Debbie and wouldn't consider buying or selling in Summit County without their guidance and asistance. You won't regret choosing Nelson Walley to your next home or sell your current.

Fantastic experience: Dedicated, experienced, know the market, patient, professional, loyal. We are so happy we trusted Nelson Walley to help us navigate not only a purchase, but also a sale in this community and in this tough market. Extremely happy with the dedication of this team. Debbie was patient with us in this challenging market. After several months of waiting for our perfect home to come on the market, her team set up a winning contract that quickly secured us the home. Afterwards, the team turned around the sale of our condo, closing the deal within two weeks of advertising the unit. Truly amazing.

Andrew Warner Published on Google

Fantastic experience: We have worked with Debbie since 2014 and bought properties both for visiting ourselves and investments. As an investor, what you need most is accurate information about rental revenue, costs, potential pitfalls, etc. Debbie has been especially helpful in making the effort to get us information from the horse’s mouth, so to speak, direct from real living owners. The estimates you will see from some real estate organizations are usually too vague to be useful and you never know for sure if the source is biased or not. In addition, Debbie will warn you if a home is not a good choice, even if it might jeopardize a sale for her.

Fantastic experience: Wow, what an amazing team to work with! Ned and Debbie have a full service operation that includes excellent staging advice/service, property website development, picture perfect photos, and most importantly they are highly responsive and market experts. We listed our home just a few weeks before Summit County closed down due to COVID-19 in 2020. During this time Ned and Debbie provided great insight, support, and guidance. They helped us navigate a successful sale even during this challenging time. Fast forward a few months after the sale, during what turned into a hot, fast moving real estate market, the Nelson Walley Team found our next vacation home! They once again helped us understand the changing market, top neighborhoods to view, and how to negotiate a successful purchase during a time of limited supply. We can't say enough great things about this team and would recommend anyone looking to buy or sell in or around Summit County work with Nelson Walley.

Fantastic experience: Ned was wonderful to work with. Would highly recommend when looking for mountain properties, he knows summit county very well. We only found the place we bought because he recommended looking at the place. In addition to finding the place, he got the seller to come out to the location with limited notice on a holiday weekend.
