Nick is not a man afraid to jump in feet first and figure things out along the way. 

It began at a young age when he started his own collection agency with a few friends. He also met, and eventually married his high school sweetheart.

Afterwards he went the safe route, landing a steady corporate job, which was fine until his job was eliminated. 

Now with a small family and a need to survive, he pivoted and went to work in the mortgage industry.

Things took off quickly.

Quickly to the point he was making $50 grand a month. Huge turn in his life. 

Then the market shifted. And that's when he realized his first mistake. He wasn't a student of his own business. 

He filed for bankruptcy, and once again, had to figure things out. 

Nick's story is a story of failure. But failure as fuel he used to rebuild a life. 

Not just rebuilding a business, but rebuilding a person and a life. 

Nick Dreher has a book for real estate agents that teaches common sense methods to success.
