Nick Melzer, the founder of Denver Foothills Property at Compass Realty, is a Realtor and licensed attorney who specializes in residential sales, investment properties, land, and development opportunities - particularly those that are difficult, complicated, or unconventional. As a former Partner at a large national law firm, Nick spent nearly fifteen years advocating successfully for his law clients and now applies those same skills to help his real estate clients get the best possible outcome when buying or selling homes and land.

Having lived in the Midwest, on the East Coast, and on the West Coast before making my home in Evergreen, I know what a special place Colorado is.

I was born in Michigan, grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana, and went to school at Tufts University in Boston, Massachusetts. At Tufts, I graduated cum laude with both my Bachelor's (in Quantitative Economics and International Relations) and Master's (in Economics) Degrees in four years. I also had the privilege to play varsity football, study for a summer in the French Alps, and spend a semester at la Universit Sorbonne Nouvelle in Paris. After college, I moved to Colorado for the first time and spent a year in Vail as a ski bum, waiter, and musician. Though I fell in love with the mountains and the Colorado lifestyle, I decided (for reasons I still don't understand) to go to law school. I earned my Juris Doctorate from the Gould School of Law at the University of Southern California, graduating near the top of my class. After law school, I spent twelve years practicing law in Los Angeles at a number of large national law firms, eventually becoming a partner in the Litigation Group at Holland & Knight LLP, doing primarily high-profile internal investigations and white-collar defense work. But Colorado was calling and eventually I moved my practice to Denver.

With a growing family and unsustainable travel and work demands, I made the decision to retire from the practice of law and pursue a new career in real estate (which, it turns out, is way more fun than practicing law) with the goal of offering my clients exceptional service, dedication, loyalty, and expertise - beyond their expectations.

As a former attorney, I know what it means to represent a client zealously, competently, loyally, and with their best interests at heart and I firmly believe that everybody deserves that type of service from their real estate agent too. I spend every day trying to live up to that higher standard. I'd like to think that's why I've quickly become one of the top producing real estate agents in the Denver foothills.

But it's not all about work! At home, I'm a proud husband and father of three young children, who all love the foothills lifestyle almost as much as I do. On any given day you'll find us hiking, biking, skiing, or fly fishing and enjoying all of the outdoor activities that Evergreen and Colorado have to offer.
