Beginning in Real Estate with Next to Nothing
In 2016 my wife and two sons moved to Detroit, Michigan from living overseas for 8 years. (In case you don’t know, I’m a dual-career pastor and moved to Detroit to launch a new congregation.) I got licensed in real estate as a secondary way of supporting my family’s needs. However, pretty soon we’d invested all we had in starting up the new church. Consequently, I found myself launching a real estate business without a budget and without relationships in the area.
After struggling through a difficult first year I had the privilege of getting a coach. This one, simple change resulted in my real estate income more than doubling that same year and having the privilege of becoming one of Metro Detroit’s Top 20% producers. Pretty soon, I was at a place of production that would’ve supported a transition into “quitting my day job” had I wanted to!
Beginning Nichols Coaching
I don’t want to “quit my day job”… I love the work I get to do as a pastor. AND I love coaching and mentoring realtors. Many new realtors in Michigan hope to be able to become financially independent as their own boss. Still, others would simply like to have a successful, part-time income stream. Whichever the case, Nichols Coaching began in 2023 to provide new agents the coaching that gave me these options.
