contents We show that if a torsion free nilpotent group $G$ has a balanced presentations and Hirsch length $h(G)>3$ then $β_1(G;\mathbb{Q})=2$. There is just one such group which is torsion-free and of Hirsch length $h=4$, and none with $h=5$. We also construct a torsion-free nilpotent group $G$ with $h=6$ and such that $β_2(G;F)=β_1(G;F)$ for all fields $F$.
