Dan Nelson

Licensed Real Estate Broker
About Dan
I am an expert negotiator in getting you the best deal for any purchase or investment. I bring a unique blend of real-life buying and selling knowledge combined with technical expertise. My wife and I have been flipping properties and buying rentals for the last 20 years in Chicago.

The love of transforming homes helped me develop a keen eye for value and potential. I will work with you not only to sell or buy your home but also with ideas to make it your dream home. Because I have been through so many of my own purchases and sales, I have encountered nearly every emotion and challenge you can in real estate. I know how to support you through the process, whether this is your first home or your tenth – from first-time homebuyers to practiced investors, I've seen it all, and I will provide you with the best possible real estate experience.

Whether you are a seasoned real estate investor or someone looking for a mentor to buy your very first investment property, I can help you find the property you are looking to buy. My wife and I started our very first investment as a house hack: a property we bought and lived on one floor while a renter lived on another floor to help pay our mortgage. We eventually rehabbed that property and sold it before buying and selling dozens of other properties in Chicago and the suburbs. We also own rental properties that we manage.
