2023 Women in CRE: Nicole Daniggelis, Ariel Property Advisors

What recent project, transaction, or accomplishment are you most proud of? The recent sale of a corner mixed-use building at 65 Woodhull St. in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. Despite uncertainty as a result of rising rates and legislative headwinds, by running a streamlined process we were able to create a competitive bidding process, ultimately receiving over 10 offers and transacting at a sale price equating to an in-place 4.3% cap rate.

Why should this nominee be recognized in our Women in Commercial Real Estate Spotlight? “A key member of our Brooklyn team, Nicole has participated in 20+ transactions totaling $300 million+ during her career. I’m equally impressed by her recovery from surgeries stemming from injuries sustained while on Yale’s Varsity Lacrosse Team. She brings discipline/determination to assignments and eagerly participates in our community outreach activities.” - Paul McCormick, Partner – Sales Management at Ariel Property Advisors.
