Nate Kingdon

Nate Kingdon was born in SLC, Utah in the lovely month of November 1975. Nate was the youngest of 4 siblings and was absolutely adored by his family. Everyone wanted baby snuggles. Nate was a challenging kid and tried to work his way out of doing things from a young age. He had trouble keeping his shoes on during school and his mom would get calls from school about his disruptive behavior. Class clown is how Nate likes to describe it although his teachers would say otherwise.

All of his siblings loved Nate. That is until he was the first kid to get a color tv in their room. Being the youngest of 4 kids, he was spoiled. By the time Nate came along, parenting went out the window and his siblings often complained about how much he could get away with. Not to say he didn’t get into his fair share of trouble because, he was no stranger to that.

Nate lived for baseball growing up. That was all he wanted to do. His dad was a big baseball player and he passed that passion down to Nate. Another thing that was passed down by his dad was his ability to talk to people. Anyone, anywhere. He was a natural salesman, just like his dad. Things didn’t come easily for Nate. He struggled in school and had to make the most of his “average intelligence” (another story for another day). He garnered his work ethic at a young age as his desire to do well in school so he could drive and play baseball was a high priority.

Nate met the love of his life at the ripe age of 15 at a Jr. High Party. She wore a levi mini skirt and a white sweater plus she had big brown eyes, swoon. Lindy did her best to set him straight but it was a big task. It took years to work her magic but eventually he settled into being a great dad to his amazing kids along with continuing to try and impress her. like the time he tried to do beadboard for his kids bedroom. That ended with a lot of curse words and the hiring of a professional to finish the project AFTER their first child was born. He is lucky he is good at sales because he is definitely NOT handy.

Nate enjoys spending time outside. In his free time he will be found on his bike in the mountains or skiing some fresh Utah Powder in the Backcountry (his mom hates that). He also enjoys a golf game every now and then. He’s horrible at poker but likes to think he can hang with the big dogs at work. His family is his life and his 2 kids keep him busy with cheer, tumbling, acting/singing, ukulele, guitar etc etc. He loves every minute of it.

Nate initially joined Hamlet in 2004 as a sales rep in training. He sold 19 homes in a short period of time and was quickly promoted to a full blown Sales Representative. He was awarded the SAMS Rookie of the year award for 2006! He continued working with Hamlet for 7 years and left to another builder during the downturn. Hamlet recruited him back once the market started to improve when they were putting together their A- Team to build the company back. All together, Nate has been at Hamlet for over 15 years! Nate has sold over 500 homes with Hamlet and loves the building process and getting to be a part of peoples most important purchase in their lives.

Nate is currently our Broker in both Utah and Idaho in addition to our Sales Manger and part owner of Hamlet Homes. He’s always wanted to be able to boss people around. He always wanted a younger brother so he could boss them around. That never happened so this is the next best thing. Haha.
