Brad is the Managing Broker and co-owner of Maxsell Real Estate. Brad likes real estate, technology, nice people, good music and dark beer. (and writing about himself in third person)
chaotic good
I like real estate, technology, good music, nice people and dark beer. (the order varies by day) What do you like?
chaotic good?
A chaotic good character acts as his conscience directs him with little regard for what others expect of him. He makes his own way, but he’s kind and benevolent. “A chaotic good character favors change for a greater good, disdains bureaucratic organizations that get in the way of social improvement, and places a high value on personal freedom, not only for oneself, but for others as well.”
I played dungeons & dragons growing up (and would still play today if my dungeon master hadn’t moved to Napa, CA) and was always drawn to playing chaotic good characters. I like being unpredictable and yet still focused on doing good for others.
I’m an entrepreneur with a casual bit of ADD mixed with a hint of OCPD. The results are several projects always underway and a steadfast commitment to complete them all with superior results.
My Core Values
Authenticity
I will not pretend to be something I am not or something others want me to be. You can expect solid honest advice.
Professionalism
I will always approach all business relationships in a professional manner, treating you and your employees with respect at all times.
Relationships
Business is best when relationships are created. I am not interested in transactions. I desire quality relationships with my clients.
Passion
I love what I do and I am driven by a desire to help others. Money is not my priority, but I do have bills to pay & a family to feed. My Core Interests Real Estate The real estate industry offers me the perfect storm to be an entrepreneur who utilizes technology to enhance client services all while focusing on the community I live in. I own Maxsell Real Estate to fulfill this interest.
Technology
I use technology to make life better. Whether it’s producing the perfect photo slideshow set to music for my family to enjoy, creating websites for my brother’s non-profit organization, or building a better real estate company for today’s modern agent – technology enhances me. I co-founded REtechSouth to share this interest with others.
Community
Relationships within my industry, my company, my hometown, and of course my family & friends are what energize me. I wake up wanting to connect with others. On line connections and real world connections are the same to me. How can we connect? I support Grace to the Nations, volunteer as Vice-President for the Cherokee Association of REALTORS, and relish spending time with friends and family to quell this constant desire.
Consulting
I am available to consult on real estate projects (individual and corporate goals), how to utilize technology to optimize business performance (new media training as well), and ways to enhance community events both small and large.

Brad Nix is one of the most professional realtors I have ever met. I had the pleasure of working with him in selling our house and buying a new one this summer--all in one WEEK! Brad helped us understand every part of the process and was patient enough to look at 14 houses in one day. We had the best time! David Pitts worked with us while Brad was on vacation during the inspection period and he was also very nice and went out of his way to help us. Brad even stayed in touch while he was in Ireland just checking to see that everything was going well. Another thing about Brad is that when he says he is going to do something, its done. His integrity stands out among his competitors in the real estate business. We will definitely recommend him to all of our family, friends and nieghbors. - Rob & Desiree Scales
Brad Nix and the rest of the crew at Maxsell Real Estate are the most knowledgable group of realtors in the industry. They understand everything it takes to make a real estate transaction go as smooth as possible from start to finish! Whether your looking to buy, sell or lease make sure this is your first call! - Chad Brown
