The first 25 years of my career were spent in management positions within a variety of service industries. I managed and directed human resources departments and learned first hand that treating associates with respect, dignity, and placing their needs above my own was the key to becoming the employer of choice in the community. Seasoned with humor and tact, my professional relationships have always been my edge to managing projects to successful outcomes and to meeting corporate goals over the years. As your REALTOR, and the managing partner in your real estate affairs, my approach is no different. I consistently offer the same respect and dignity to each of my clients, and, yes, I guarantee there can be fun in the process.

Buying and selling residential real estate can be a truly stressful experience. More than a simple business transaction, it often involves major life changes and decisions, as well as a mix of emotions. I manage your real estate transaction while affording you the time to manage the rest of your personal life. My strengths come from translating your particular needs into a customized game plan, then managing the details to a successful closing. One of my many delighted clients recently wrote, "Dan could not have been more professional and supportive in the entire process from listing to closing. He was prepared every step of the way and managed all the details with calm efficiency".

Vickie, my wife of 34 years, and I moved to Florida from West Michigan. My Bachelors and Masters Degrees in Management are from Michigan State University and Aquinas College, in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I am a seasoned win/win negotiator, having spent a number of years negotiating labor contracts as part of my human resources role. You, my real estate clients, reap the benefits of my many hours at the negotiating table. I know that negotiating does not stop at the buy and sell agreement. It prevails throughout the transaction; from contract to closing.

I am dedicated to a high level of integrity and a personal, professional approach to buying and selling homes. My many satisfied clients have expressed heartfelt appreciation for the way I managed them, with relative ease, through a complicated and often lengthy process. While I have focused my business primarily in Hillsborough and southern Pasco Counties, I am very pleased to support the real estate needs of my clients throughout Tampa Bay.
