Michael Tyler Nix is the Founder of NDA Collective, a privately operated real estate brand specializing in high-trust, relationship-driven transactions across the Pacific Northwest’s most exclusive markets, including Medina, Hunts Point, Clyde Hill, Yarrow Point, Bellevue, Mercer Island, Seattle, and the greater Lake Washington corridor. He operates the firm alongside his business partner and Co-Founder, Scott Nicholson, with a shared focus on discretion, execution, and long-term client stewardship.
With a foundation rooted in high-caliber hospitality, Michael approaches real estate as both a strategic discipline and a deeply human experience where trust, alignment, and successful outcomes converge. Much of his work occurs quietly behind the scenes, facilitating complex transactions within curated networks of high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, families, and builders. On rare occasions, these transactions become publicly visible, offering a glimpse into a segment of the market that typically operates with a high degree of confidentiality.
In just three years, Michael has exceeded $70M in closed volume, advising clients across luxury and ultra-luxury residential, waterfront, land, and development-oriented opportunities. His approach blends precision and care, balancing emotion and data, privacy and progress, relationships and results to guide decisions where legacy, capital, and lifestyle intersect.
Together, Michael Tyler Nix and Scott Nicholson bring a combined closed volume exceeding $150 million and more than a decade of experience in the real estate industry. In under six months of working together, they closed over $45 million in transactions and are on pace to surpass $100 million in their first year as partners.
Through their brand, NDA Collective, they are building a highly curated global network designed to support discreet, relationship-driven transactions while providing clients with trusted access to opportunities and connections worldwide. They view themselves as the next generation of trusted stewards within the communities they serve, operating with a deep respect for the legacy, privacy, and significance of each property and client relationship.
Known for his thoughtful presence and attention to detail, Michael is deeply committed to delivering a hospitality-driven experience for each client. He takes the time to understand individual circumstances, long-term goals, and the broader context surrounding every decision, ensuring each transaction is handled with clarity, intention, and care.
Michael serves clients throughout the Puget Sound region and beyond, often acting as a connector within a trusted network of advisors, agents, and professionals. Whether representing a first acquisition in a new luxury market or a generational estate, his focus remains the same: to provide a level of service, discretion, and guidance that reflects the significance of the moment.
Michael believes real estate is the highest form of hospitality and that belief is evident in every relationship he builds and every transaction he represents.
