Originally from Strong Island, NY, Dave Tina is more than just two first names. He is an avid reader, accomplished hypochondriac, and established purpose finder on an endless journey for the truth. Dave’s accolades include surviving living in a home with three daughters, his wife and a female Westie named Lily. In addition to his many failures in business Dave has somehow managed to build an 8 figure portfolio that includes a coaching business, a thriving brokerage, a top 10 luxury sales team and multiple residential and commercial assets. Most importantly Dave’s passion is attaching purpose and meaning to not only business but in everything we do. He’s dedicated his life to helping people find their freedom via purpose by living what he teaches.
What started as a bold pivot and a leap of faith in 2013 has grown into Las Vegas’s largest independent residential real estate brokerage. Urban Nest Realty, founded by Dave and Angela Tina, emerged from a vision to transform the real estate experience through authentic relationships and community-focused service. By prioritizing people over transactions and fostering a family-like culture, Dave built more than just a brokerage – he created a movement that redefined industry standards in Las Vegas. Urban Nest’s remarkable growth from a startup to an industry leader demonstrates how purpose-driven leadership and unwavering commitment to relationships can revolutionize an entire market.
In a bold move, Dave Tina turned a commercial leasing challenge into an opportunity, purchasing and renovating a 28,000-square-foot property to create a vibrant business hub. LaFarfalla, the transformed building, not only serves as Urban Nest Realty’s headquarters but has become a catalyst for community revitalization. Through meticulous design and a commitment to excellence, Dave has fostered a modern, welcoming atmosphere that attracts like-minded entrepreneurs, creative professionals, and local businesses. His vision has had a ripple effect, elevating the surrounding neighborhood and inspiring a new wave of investment and innovation.
