Meet Joel


Joel Helbling brings a uniquely disciplined, client-first approach to Northern Colorado real estate. As a REALTOR® with The Group Real Estate, a practicing veterinarian, and an MBA with deep experience in evidence-backed decision making, he combines analytical precision with a natural instinct for service.

His background in veterinary medicine and executive leadership fosters calm, clear, and empathetic guidance, which is particularly valuable in transactions where emotions and high stakes run side by side. Coupled with advanced training in applied finance, Joel delivers market insights, pricing strategy, and negotiation techniques grounded in rigor rather than guesswork.

Above all, he believes real estate is an opportunity to create meaningful impact. With every closing, Joel donates to Bounce Animal Rescue, supporting local animals in need and giving back to the community he proudly calls home.

BUYERS

See What Others Can’t.

Compete Where Others Aren’t.

Think you have seen everything on the market? Most buyers never realize there is an entire layer of inventory that never hits Zillow, never appears on the MLS, and never shows up in their searches. Through The Group Exclusive Program, you gain early access to homes shared privately within The Group’s network before they go public.

In a competitive market where the best homes attract multiple offers within days, early visibility is not just helpful, it is a strategic advantage. You discover opportunities other buyers cannot see, position yourself sooner, and avoid bidding wars before they even start. It is a smarter way to buy in a market where speed and access shape outcomes.

SELLERS

Build Demand Quietly.

Launch Publicly With Maximum Leverage.

The best time to gather buyer feedback is before your listing goes live. With The Group Exclusive Program, your home is introduced discreetly to The Group’s 200-plus brokers and their motivated buyers, giving you the ability to test pricing, refine presentation, and spark early interest without accumulating public Days on Market.

In a market where buyers track every price drop and where time on market shapes perception, protecting your home's data protects your home's value. By the time you choose to go public, you are launching with momentum, insight, and a stronger negotiating position. Many sellers even secure an off-market sale entirely, which means no open houses, fewer disruptions, and a more private experience from start to finish.

It is a smarter and more controlled way to sell in a marketplace where timing, privacy, and positioning drive results.

MAKING THE MAGIC HAPPEN

Working with Joel Helbling was such a blessing. He was so thorough and patient, always taking the time to explain everything in detail so I felt confident in each step of the process. As someone new to all of this, I never once felt rushed or overlooked. Joel made sure the home was a perfect fit not just for me, but for my pets too, which meant the world to me.

He went above and beyond to help me and my family, especially while we were navigating a particularly difficult time. What I appreciated most is that Joel wasn’t just professional and knowledgeable, he was also genuinely kind and resourceful. He made a stressful process feel easier, and I always felt that I could trust his guidance. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent (or person) to walk me through this journey.
