In 2017, Daniel Fefferman retired his corporate pilot wings to spend more time with his growing family and pursue his other passion — real estate. During his first year alone, he closed over $18 million in residential and commercial real estate — eight times the industry average — in part because he’d already had years of experience managing and remodeling his own real estate investments.

During his first year alone, he closed over $18 million in residential and commercial real estate — eight times the industry average — in part because he’d already had years of experience managing and remodeling his own real estate investments. But for all his expertise, it’s Daniel’s honesty, integrity, and drive to create memorable experiences that keep his clients coming back. As he helps his clients buy, sell, or invest, Daniel creates a stress-free, professional environment. In addition to offering clients an extensive network of talented professionals that can address any need, the San Diego native’s hyperlocal market knowledge provides him with a wealth of insight. Whether it be for commercial or residential, he approaches each transaction with the focus and determination that earned him a commercial pilot’s license in just 13 months, one-quarter of the average time, and he provides white-glove service throughout. The unsurpassed attention to detail, stellar communication skills, and ability to solve problems quickly and creatively that he learned at 39,000 feet are now at his clients’ disposal. When not helping clients, Daniel loves spending time with his wife Sara, a fellow real estate professional; their two young children, Raegan and Oliver; and the family dog, Cooper. Together, they enjoy all the outdoor activities San Diego has to offer, from camping adventures and beach days to snowboarding fun. Also a big fan of motor sports, Daniel likes to go off-roading and can often be found racing Porsches — his ultimate thrill-hobby. Show less

After graduating from San Diego State University, Daniel made the decision to pursue a career in Corporate Aviation. His discipline and goal-driven approach led him to complete flight training in just thirteen months, a quarter of the time it typically takes to earn your wings. As a pilot, Daniel developed a combination of skills that contribute to his success as a licensed REALTOR® today. He brings exceptional problem-solving capability and precise attention to detail to every real estate transaction. People entrusted Daniel to safely transport them at 39,000 feet above the ground and now they entrust him with some of their most important investments. When Daniel began a family of his own he chose to “ground himself” and focus on real estate full time. He had been living out of a suitcase for almost a decade and was ready to unpack his bags so he could enjoy more time with his wife, Sara, and daughter, Raegan. Sara works alongside Daniel representing residential buyers and sellers. In his first year, Daniel achieved over $18 million in total sales, eight times more than the industry average. For Daniel, there’s nothing more gratifying than when his client closes an escrow on a new home or commercial space. To him, it’s more than just an investment, but a place to build memories and grow. In his free time, Daniel enjoys spending time with his family and friends. Depending on the season, you can find Daniel camping along the coast or snowboarding in the mountains enjoying all that San Diego has to offer. Show less
