Bio
Joel Nelson garnered his first hands-on real estate skills as a teenager in Philadelphia where he worked for several years on the maintenance crew of a classic 1912 apartment residence. The job taught him early how to work with historic building experts in every trade and how to keep residents happy with creative problem-solving. Joel moved to Washington, DC to attend American University, where he obtained a degree in psychology. Those twin foundations – the physical and psychological – have been invaluable throughout his life as an agent and consultant, as he leads people to align their competing objectives for mutual success.
After six years working in cities and towns across the country Joel, and his wife Thonya, returned to Washington in 1998. They fell in love with Capitol Hill and immediately began finding and renovating historic homes in the neighborhood. In 2001 Joel committed full-time to helping others make good purchase and sale decisions as a licensed agent. Ten years ago the Joel Nelson Group joined like-minded agents in founding Keller Williams Capital Properties (KWCP), the first KW office in DC, and the fastest-growing brokerage in the capital.
Joel and his team have varied and hands-on experience as counselors, investors, renovators, and marketers. They are unparalleled in their dedication to client service, and make extraordinary advisors and guides as their clients achieve their individual goals in the vibrant neighborhoods of the Nation’s Capital!
