Bio:
Nick Despotidis, the Fix & Flip REALTOR®, specialist, helping investors buy, renovate, and sell homes in Pasadena and across the Greater Los Angeles Market. With more than 150 homes sold and $80M+ in volume, Nick brings both sharp financial insight and local know-how to every deal.

Before diving into real estate, Nick worked in banking—so crunching numbers, structuring deals, and making sure the math adds up is second nature. Now he puts that background to work guiding clients through the entire flipping process: sourcing the right property, negotiating strong contracts, connecting them with vetted contractors and lenders, and marketing the finished home with his signature “pretty and gritty” approach to get top dollar fast.

Nick knows how competitive the LA market can be because he’s lived it—before relocating his family from Washington DC, he bought their home in the Pasadena area and quickly learned how relationship-driven this market really is. Today, Nick helps investors succeed while also running GRID LA, a growing community of 250+ flippers, dealmakers, and real estate pros who come together to share knowledge, opportunities, and a few good laughs along the way.

When he’s not working, Nick is with his wife and two daughters—or playing basketball with friends.
