About us
Investor-friendly agent specializing in long-term/buy&holds, fix & flips and short-term rentals. I started my real estate journey in January 2020 when I purchased my first single-family home. Since then, I have acquired 5 more single-family homes and 2 duplexes. I got started by doing a cash-out refinance on my primary residence (now a rental). I formed a partnership for my last deal to purchase 6 of the units. I manage 7 of the 10 units myself, so I can help direct investors on managing their properties. I am a licensed CPA and Financial Specialist, so I am comfortable reading and interpreting financial statements. As such, analyzing deals is where I can provide the best service. I have concentrated on cash flowing properties with a target of a cash-on-cash return of under 5 years. Books that have helped, shaped, and guided me: The One Thing, Shoe Dog, The10X Rule, Am I Being Too Subtle, Think and Grow Rich, Relentless, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Wooden, Who Not How, Traction, Your Next Five Moves, Good to Great, Get a Grip, The EMyth Revisited, The Book on Managing Rental Properties, The Multi-Family Millionaire, Crushing it in Apartments and Commercial Real Estate, The Property Manager Mindset, Sold, Rich Dad Poor Dad and so on.....

Being a first time home buyer can be stressful and overwhelming, but Alexys Morris made the experience very positive! She was a great communicator, very organized, and found all of the answers to our questions. She helped us find our home in the Lansing area. I would absolutely recommend Alexys to be your future real estate agent!

Josh Nelson delivered an exceptional real estate experience. He was thorough, strategic, gave great advice, and made the whole process incredibly smooth. His marketing was top-notch—the photos were great—and his deep connections in the area clearly made a difference. We had an offer the same day the property was listed. If you want a realtor who knows the market and gets great results, Josh is your guy.

I had an outstanding experience working with Josh Nelson at White Pine Sotheby’s Realty in Okemos, Michigan. From our very first conversation, Josh demonstrated deep knowledge of the local market, strong negotiation skills, and a genuine commitment to making the process smooth and stress-free.
What stood out most was his responsiveness and attention to detail — he was always quick to answer questions, provide clear explanations, and offer thoughtful guidance. Whether it was coordinating showings, helping me evaluate properties, or navigating the closing process, Josh went above and beyond to ensure everything stayed on track.
He has that rare combination of professionalism, market expertise, and personal warmth that makes you feel like you’re in the best possible hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Josh again and highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling in the area.

As overseas buyers, we couldn't have asked for a better real estate agent than Joshua Nelson. His exceptional service and trustworthiness made our remote home-buying experience smooth and confident. Using video tours to view properties, we relied heavily on Joshua's expertise and judgment, and he never disappointed us.
What truly sets Joshua apart is his ability to advocate for his clients. He carefully considered our needs and preferences, thoroughly filtering potential properties from our perspective. The entire transaction process was transparent, professional, and handled with utmost integrity. We secured our home at an excellent value, and our entire family is delighted with the purchase.
I highly recommend Joshua as an outstanding real estate agent. His dedication, professionalism, and client-focused approach make him the obvious choice for any real estate transaction. Without hesitation, I would choose to work with him again for any future property purchases or sales.
Joshua's service went far beyond our expectations, and we are truly grateful for his guidance throughout this journey

Josh was very knowledgeable and helpful in every aspect in our journey. We purchased our first out of state rental property. He advised our on an offer that would be competitive and when it was accepted we felt comfortable to ask him questions or get his input along the way. He also connected us to a property management company and set up a meeting with the property management owner who was part of the final walk through. Communication is key and even though there was a 3 hour time difference he was always available to answer our questions and respond promptly.

I honestly cannot speak more highly of Josh. I met Josh as a new investor and he was so incredibly helpful. He was patient, responsive, hard-working, and he took the time to discuss each house with me. He is extremely knowledgeable of the area in which he works and has great contacts in the area as well. I will continue to work with Josh in the future and cannot recommend him more confidently to others.
