Daniel Smith

Knowledge of the local housing market, property assessment, and experience in complex real estate negotiations make agent Daniel Smith a strong ally during even the most complicated transactions. He offers clients throughout Silicon Valley and the Bay Area an eclectic array of real estate services--grounded in his business expertise and dedication to excellence. Born and raised in Carlsbad, California, real estate was just beyond the horizon when Daniel launched a mobile auto detailing business after attending the College of Business Administration at Cal State University, San Marcos. While owning and managing his successful company, Daniel was introduced to some of San Diego's most prestigious communities and developed a passion for the industry. After 15 years, he sold his business and undertook a series of ventures--such as working as a construction manager and electrical engineer--that taught him the crucial aspects of real estate. Well-prepared to succeed long before he ever earned his license, Daniel has a track record of exceeding his clients' expectations. With his impressive background as well as his life-long interest in architecture, he can provide rigorous property assessments for buyers and sellers alike, guiding them substantially in areas of home improvement and associated costs. Those technical skills, combined with excellent negotiation tactics and the honesty and respect he shows his clients, make Daniel uniquely qualified to help buyers and sellers navigate the competitive Bay Area market. Daniel loves spending his downtime with his wife, son and his daughter. He also enjoys engaging in outdoor sports, including mountain biking, hiking, fishing, surfing, wakeboarding, snowboarding, and skateboarding.
