1 Nation Realty

Todd Nation Bio Todd Nation graduated from Skidmore College in just three years, finishing a mere 0.002 points shy of honors. While pursuing his education, he managed three companies, showcasing an entrepreneurial spirit that has defined his career. After college, Todd purchased a failing Subway franchise in New York City and transformed it into the highest-grossing store in the country out of 18,000 locations. Five years later, he opened a second Subway location that eclipsed the first, becoming the number-one store out of 22,000 locations nationwide. Weekly sales exceeded $33,000, far surpassing the original $20,000 goal, cementing Todd’s reputation as a visionary business leader. Since his Subway success, Todd has expanded into real estate development, specializing in shopping centers, single-family home renovations, and luxury Airbnb rentals. He operates a thriving short-term vacation rental business and actively seeks value-add investment opportunities across various property types. Additionally, he owns and manages a real estate and mortgage brokerage, broadening his impact in the industry. Todd credits his achievements to building strong, trust-filled relationships, much like those in heartwarming buddy comedies—fueled by authenticity, humor, and a shared commitment to excellence. His approach is refreshingly straightforward, focusing on honest conversations about what clients need, what they love, and whether they truly want to live next to a neighbor who practices the tuba at midnight. For Todd, the thrill of closing deals—whether finding a client’s dream home or successfully selling a property—is just the start. His true passion lies in forming lasting connections that go beyond transactions. Todd aims to be the person clients call for advice, a laugh, or even help assembling flat-pack furniture. When it comes to real estate, Todd is in the business of selling happiness. With the precision of a Swiss watch and the intuition of a golden retriever, he helps clients make decisions that add value not just to their portfolios but also to their lives. Listing a home with Todd is a masterclass in strategy. He analyzes market trends with the meticulousness of a reality TV judge critiquing a soufflé, ensuring every move is calculated and well-informed. His advice? Be smart, be patient, and avoid rash decisions—especially ones involving "quirky" neighbors or wallpaper that screams 1988.
