MEET MIKE For over 25 years, Mike Wells has refined his comprehensive understanding of what it takes to succeed in the business as a broker, realtor, investor and lender. Throughout this experience he championed every opportunity to share this insight to achieve tremendous success for his clients throughout the West. “Real estate transactions are complicated with many contingencies, deadlines and personalities. I thoroughly enjoy managing the details and delivering a pleasant experience.” As an industry leader, his accomplishments include the establishment of a new real estate region that attained multi-million-dollar sales within a two-year period, among many other industry-leading achievements. No matter the challenge, Mike has always taken the high road. Today, he continues to set new benchmarks and share his expertise with buyers and sellers alike. He is a veteran in the real estate business, and a veteran of the United States Marine Corp where he volunteered his service for America from 1971–1977. An adventurer at heart, Mike enjoys off-road excursions and traveling throughout the U.S.A with his family by his side. Authentic and an invaluable advisor in the real estate business, Mike can be contacted through Chase International’s Sparks, NV office.

At Chase, we call it heart. And when you have it, everything else takes care of itself.

CHASE GLOBAL INITIATIVE

The Hela Bima Rice Project At Chase International, we are proud to make a real difference in our world by supporting over 1,000 traditional rice farmers in Sri Lanka. Over 3.5 billion people consume rice, mostly unhealthy hybrid varieties. The Hela Bima Rice Project and Chase International join forces to grow 2,000-year-old pure, whole varieties of rice (hidden for over 500 years) with human loving, nature friendly and sustainable farming practices, using the wisdom of their ancestors. We support education, fund schools, build state-of-the-art, eco-friendly rice mills, storage and packaging facilities. Since 2011, Chase International has empowered the farmers, their families, children and villages to live healthy lives. The Hela Bima Rice Project is awakening and educating the world, honoring the farmers, their rice and well-being. This relationship with the farmers creates a circle of abundance in all of our lives.
