hen Founder & CEO Daryl Owen opened the doors on Nationwide Real Estate Executives in 2011, he did so with a vision of putting the customer back in the center of a real estate transaction. He envisaged creating efficient training and systems for agents that would simplify the consumer experience, resulting in greater opportunities for Realtors® and homeowners alike.

A decade later, Nationwide Real Estate Executives has grown into one of the largest independently owned real estate firms in the U.S. with nearly 1,000 agents.

Nationwide Real Estate Executives’ success pivots on a culture rooted in six core values: Coachability, Systems, Accountability, Hard Work, Team Work and

Humility. “This is who we are, what we expect and what we revert to when we get off track,” Daryl says. “Our mission is to enrich lives through real estate.”

Daryl was in college when he bought his first rental property. He then pursued his dream of becoming a real estate investor and developer, obtaining his real estate license and becoming a top producer at Century 21. When he decided to open his own brokerage, he did so with a keen understanding of the work ethic and discipline required to deliver value to clients. He temporarily gave up sales in order to devote himself fully to building his systems and brand. caught up in self-improvement and goal setting.

According to Daryl, creating a sustainable model that benefits both agents and clients requires adaptability.

“When I got into the business, it was much different than it is today. It’s getting much harder for agents as individuals to start from scratch and become successful, and I started noticing an industry trend shifting to teams

instead of individual agents. But in order for agents to build teams, they needed the technology, support, training and mentorship to do it successfully. I missed selling, and I decided to devote myself to building a team to perfect the model and create a prototype that other teams could replicate.”

In April 2020, Daryl assembled The Nickle Team, which is now doing $100 million in sales and expects to double that number in 2022. “I know it works now,” he says. “My ‘why’ is helping my team enrich their lives in real estate, so they can then enrich their clients’ lives. I’ve watched example after example of people building great businesses — like many top agents on the team who went from zero to building very successful businesses for their family with long-term wealth being created. I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars building the right systems and technology so that anyone can plug in and create their own success.”

The proof is in the results, which demonstrate that

Daryl’s team model delivers superior service to customers.

A client who both sold and bought homes with Daryl and The Nickle Team said this: “My experience with Daryl Owen and his team was phenomenal. It was first class all the way. Providing car service made it exceptional, as my husband and I don’t drive long distances. The constant communication, advice and patience was outstanding.

They listened to what we wanted and gave us multiple options. We were able to take our time and ask numerous questions. When making a major purchase, such as a home, it is very important to work with people who understand your money is a means to live, and having somewhere to call home that you love makes all the difference.”

The Nickle Team Daryl leads his organization by example, showing up as someone who is coachable and continuously striving for growth. “I wouldn’t be where I am without my buddy Ben Kinney. He runs the number one team in the world, and he coaches me every week. I implement the things we strategize on, and I’m sure my team wouldn’t be where it is in 18 months without him by my side. I’m now using our team’s success as an expansion opportunity, giving select agents a chance to open up new branch locations as my partner.”

Daryl inspires by showing others what is possible — from professional success to home ownership. “I want to be the hero of my three little boys — the guy they want to grow up to be like, with the confidence that they can achieve anything they want. But I want to provide that inspiration to other people too. I want them to know that

no matter what background or where they came from, with this formula they can get where they want to go. The things they want in life and may not feel worthy of are real and attainable.”

Whether you’re choosing a partner in business or in the biggest transaction of your lifetime, Daryl and Nationwide Real Estate Executives are a reliable choice.

“Buying or selling a home is a massive part of someone’s life journey, and I am grateful to play in a role in that journey. We care about people, and we love what we do here.”
