From Diverse Beginnings to Real Estate Excellence

Before entering the real estate sector, Dan developed expertise in sales, business management, negotiation, procurement, and finance, skills that now guide both his personal investments and team operations. This diverse background gave Dan and his growing network of professionals the tools needed to excel in complex markets.

In 2011, Dan identified a niche opportunity in downtown Hamilton, Ontario, Canada where he and his team built a $15 million CAD portfolio of multi-family and commercial properties spanning over 50,000 square feet. By transforming distressed assets into cash-flowing properties, Dan established a reputation for delivering impressive returns—achieving project-level IRRs of at least 20% and portfolio-wide returns above 40%. This track record became the foundation for the strategic vision that guides both his personal investments and the larger InvestCARICOM platform today.
