Leading with Intent.

In a town as storied as Savannah, real estate is about more than just a transaction—it’s about the stewardship of our shared history. For over 20 years, I’ve navigated the shifting tides of this market with a singular philosophy: Exceptional is the only standard. When I founded Nelsen.re, I did so with the intent to move away from the high-volume, 'transactional' nature of big-box brokerages. I believe my clients deserve a partner who values the long-term legacy of a home as much as they do. My commitment isn’t just to the closing table; it’s to the families and the neighborhoods that make this city the most beautiful place on earth.
Peter Nelsen professional real estate advisor in Savannah Georgia.

A Student of Savannah Architecture.

Every neighborhood in our region tells a different story. To me, the grand Italianate estates of the Historic District require a different eye than the mid-century charm of Ardsley Park or the breezy, coastal vernacular of the Islands. I’ve spent two decades studying these nuances—understanding not just the market value of a property, but its architectural soul. Whether it’s navigating the complexities of a historic renovation or finding that perfect dock-front retreat on Isle of Hope, I pride myself on being a curator of the Savannah lifestyle. I don’t just show houses; I help my clients find their place in the local narrative.
