Congratulations on Board of Directors Election

Thursday, October 14th, 2010

Nilson Homes would like to congratulate their Sales and Marketing Director on his election to the Board of Directors of the Northern Wasatch Association of Realtors.  Jed Nilson was nominated to run and was then elected by his fellow Realtors to serve a three year term.  As a Director, he will strive to improve the already great NWAOR.

He has been a long time supporter of the Have a Heart Home project and the Community Housing Committee.  He was the Co-Chair of the Community Housing Committee for 2010.  Nilson Homes has built a Have a Heart Home in each of the past three years.  He has played a key role in bringing the Homebuilder’s Association together with the Board of Realtors to continue the legacy of the Have a Heart Home project.  That accomplishment, among others, helped his company earn the prestigious Homebuilder of the Year Award in 2008.

Jed began his career as a Realtor in 1999 as a New Home Sales Representative for Nilson Homes.  Since 2002, he has worked for the company as the Sales and Marketing Director and has helped the company become a prominent builder along the Wasatch Front.  He was designated as a New Home Sales Professional (CSP) in 2004 and is currently a Certified Instructor for the CSP Designation.

In recent months, he has helped launch the Young Professionals Network for the Northern Wasatch Association of Realtors as the Vice Chair for that organization.  He has a longstanding record of volunteering time and effort to the Board of Realtors and to strengthening relationships between the Board and the Homebuilder’s Association.  Jed welcomes the opportunity to represent his fellow Realtors.

Jed’s election to the Board of Directors is attributed to Nilson Homes’ dedication to work with Realtors in the homebuilding process.  Nilson Homes has always been a supporter of the Realtor Community and appreciates all of the Realtors that have trusted us to build homes for their clients over the years.

Nilson Homes Wins Builder of the Year 2008!

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

Nilson Homes is the Proud Winner of the Builder of the Year Award, 2008!

Builder of the Year 2008

Each year, the Northern Wasatch Home Builder’s Association presents one builder with the Builder of the Year award. This award goes to a builder that exemplifies generosity, caring, and giving of themselves to our community. This year, this highly esteemed honor was given to Bruce Nilson, owner and president of Nilson Homes.

Many volunteer and charitable projects were noted during the presentation of the award. Such projects include the Have a Heart Home, a charitable home built for a special needs family. In 2007, Nilson Homes finished a Have a Heart home and had the pleasure of presenting the keys to the new home owner. Bruce Nilson was so moved by the experience that he immediately volunteered to build the next Have a Heart home, which is now in final stages of construction and expected to be completed in December of 2008.

Also mentioned was the countless hours and efforts spent by Bruce Nilson on behalf of Nilson Homes to unite the Home Builder’s Association members, and Bruce’s passionate belief that in the current economic climate, leadership and teamwork is key to success.

Bruce Nilson is an example of positive leadership. His dedication to his work and commitment to provide the best quality homes possible set him apart from other builders. These qualities and his concern for others make Bruce Nilson a most deserving recipient of this award. Everyone at Nilson Homes congratulates Bruce on this great honor and accomplishment!
