After miraculously waking up from a two-week coma and surviving multiple organ failures following a mystery illness, Nick Borelli knew he needed to pursue his passion in life.
Nearly a decade on and his health ordeal ultimately became the catalyst for a successful move into real estate that has seen him become Principal at Ray White Paradise, reach Chariman’s Elite status and make more than 130 deals per year.
