Shannon Daniele

HomeSmart Realty Group

Shannon Daniele has spent more than two decades building real estate from every angle — as an agent, broker, lender, escrow operator, and fund manager. Today he owns three HomeSmart Realty Group franchises in Long Beach, Downey, and Torrance, leading a team of more than 250 agents across Southern California, while continuing to personally represent buyers and sellers in residential, mixed-use, and commercial transactions. His advantage to clients is structural: Shannon owns Crush Mortgage Inc. (the lending arm of his brokerage), founded Smartmove Escrow to handle transactions in-house, and previously closed over $1 billion in residential loans during a 12-year run as top producer at Mark 1 Mortgage. He has also managed two $100 million hedge funds and built a hard money lending company from the ground up, giving him a depth of financial experience few real estate agents bring to the table. What that means for the people he represents: when something complicated comes up — a financing snag, a creative offer structure, an investment decision, a flip with tight margins — Shannon has almost certainly seen it before, and likely owns the company that solves it. He works with first-time buyers, move-up families, sellers preparing for the next chapter, and investors building portfolios. Long Beach native. Married 22 years. Father of four sons. If you're buying or selling in Southern California and you want an agent who understands the deal beyond the contract, Shannon is built for it.
