Jennifer Nelson
Jennifer is deeply familiar with the challenges and nuances of relocating, having moved across seven states and bought and sold three homes in just five years as the spouse of a veteran. Her personal journey has included living in rental homes, apartments, base housing, and privately owned properties, giving her a unique perspective on the real estate process. With extensive firsthand experience working with realtors, lenders, and landlords, Jennifer understands the significant difference the right professionals can make. Committed to providing peace of mind, she ensures her clients feel supported throughout every step of their home purchase or sale, treating each transaction with the same care and dedication as if it were her own.
Born in Alaska and raised in a family of entrepreneurs, I learned from an early age the importance of earning the trust and respect of my clients, colleagues and the community as a whole. My drive and dedication is reflected in my 10+ years of experience in the community banking industry where I quickly turned my part time college job as a teller into a fulfilling career as Vice President and Controller for one of the top-rated, community banks in Arizona.
As the wife of a Veteran (and expert packer and mover), I have first-hand experience with a variety of transactions and circumstances when it comes to buying and selling a home. “Semper Gumby” (Always Flexible), as the Marine Corps likes to say, became a common and comfortable way of life for us.
After separating from the Marine Corps we chose to settle in beautiful upstate New York. We were drawn to this little known gem of an area that still had the charm of a small town, but big city accommodations. The beautiful countryside, hiking trails, and vibrant community of small local farmers reminded us a lot of where we grew up in Northern California, but with a character and history all its own.
Since moving to the greater Saratoga area, I have been working as the transaction coordinator for both Saratoga Spa Realty & Carda LLC Property Management, gaining an in depth knowledge of the real estate industry from “behind the scenes”. After leaving my corporate career, I have enjoyed being able to connect with people and dedicate my corporate skill set to helping others make one of the largest purchases in their life; giving them the guidance, time, and attention they deserve.
In my off time I can be found wrangling my two vivacious young daughters and working on our small family farm. I enjoy gardening, hiking, and getting involved with the local community.
