Daniel Nickles
Host
At a young age, Daniel Nickles was first introduced to real estate by his father who worked as a broker-agent and property manager. From sweeping floors and mowing lawns to working on roofs and performing make-ready service, he was taught the value of hard work. Daniel began his investing career shortly after obtaining a degree in Chemical Engineering at the University of Oklahoma in 2012. Like most, he started by purchasing stocks and building a portfolio of cash flowing single family rentals. He has since made a shift into large multifamily properties after learning about the significant benefits they provide. Today, he is focusing on helping others build wealth, passively and actively, in multifamily syndications.
