“We had a great experience working with Dan to sell our house during a challenging buyer’s market. Dan is approachable, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable about the Sacramento housing market. His advice on how to prepare and position our home for sale was superb and made a real difference. We truly appreciated his guidance, expertise, and support. We highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and dedicated real estate agent!”
“Dan negotiated an Opendoor purchase in Orangevale at over $13k under list price plus $6k+ in closing credits ($19k total savings). A year later, Opendoor offered me $374k for my rental property. I contacted Dan—he facilitated tenant relocation negotiations, listed the property, and closed early at $420k!”
“Dan isn’t ‘that guy’ with his face on every shopping cart—he’s very straightforward and knows the technical and legal aspects inside out. When inspections revealed the leach field had failed, he engineered the solution and negotiated effectively with a seller who was an agent himself. He was patient with complex paperwork and advocated tirelessly.”
“This was our second time working with Dan. Not only did he get our offer accepted with a contingency to sell our home, but he also successfully sold our home within the contingency timeframe. His strategy, communication, and negotiation skills made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable.”
“Dan was a huge help in finding our home and guiding us through a unique SB1079 purchase outside the MLS. His communication was excellent, and his knowledge of both the market and creative buying strategies made all the difference.”
“Dan and Amy made the sale of our home a smooth and painless process all while being out of state. From listing to close in under ten days with multiple over asking offers… Dan went far above and beyond with getting the house ready for listing, from scheduling cleaning to changing light bulbs and mowing the yard.”
“He helped us secure a refund of our Earnest money from the first builders. He also helped us get discounted fees from the mortgage company. Dan did a thorough inspection in our home and helped us detect faults to be fixed by the builders before move-in.”
“We are very cautious and detail oriented. Dan gives thoughtful, considerate answers and super responsive updates. He had a great team of local professionals to perform inspections and used the issues they discovered to negotiate a significant credit back to us at signing.”
“We met Dan years ago when we bought in Fair Oaks and knew we would hire him again when selling. Dan found and managed contractors and local vendors, getting us great pricing and fast work. He put together an open house that attracted a stampede and gave invaluable advice throughout negotiations with multiple offers.”
“We needed to sell our current home to buy our new one with a toddler during a challenging market. Dan guided us through all our options. Our house sold in a single weekend with multiple offers, our purchase offer was accepted within days, and he negotiated strong repair credits seamlessly.”
“As a Realtor who recently worked with him, I was blown away by Dan’s communication and integrity. He did exactly what he said he would do. It is not often I work with a Realtor that genuinely cares for all parties involved. He is one of the best Sacramento Realtors I have worked with.”
“We had an incredible experience working with Dan to find our home and our parent’s home! From start to finish, Dan was hard-working, trustworthy, and genuinely kind. Dan took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for (even though we changed our minds a few times) and guided us through every step of the process with patience and professionalism. Dan’s deep knowledge of the North Valley real estate market really stood out—he gave us great advice, helped us make informed decisions, and always had our best interests in mind. We never felt pressured, only supported. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and will go above and beyond, we can’t recommend Dan highly enough!”
“Dan was the consummate real estate professional. He was an excellent communicator coupled with a friendly and upbeat personality. His knowledge of the market was keen and he was quick to research comparative values and offer suggestions, as if it were his personal transaction. I can recommend Dan without reservation.”
“Amy and Dan were terrific! They took time to show us lots of homes until we found just the right one. They gave us great advice in navigating the housing market and we were able to find a wonderful home and get a great deal on it!”
“Dan is truly amazing, it is hard to find honest people who genuinely care nowadays unfortunately but you will never have to worry about that with Dan at Shine Real Estate. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients!”
“As first time home buyers my husband and I were a bit intimidated by the process of all it takes to purchase a home. We are so thankful and happy to have found Dan at Shine Real Estate. From the very beginning of the process of looking at houses all the way to the “finish line” of getting the keys Dan went above and beyond for us. He was in communication with us, always on time (and willing to work around our schedule), gave us sound advice when it came to putting in offers as well as throughout the entire buying process, and was all around a joy to work with! My husband and I can’t recommend Dan and his team enough! If you’re looking for an honest, thorough, “has your best interest in mind” realtor-Dan is the best of the best!”
“I am so happy to have worked with Dan Gossett. I just closed on my home and he was a huge asset. He made me feel like I was a priority every step of the way. He is very knowledgeable and personable. Dan is always quick to get back to you if you have questions or advice. Buying a home can be stressful but with the right realtor the process can be smooth and enjoyable; for that I highly recommend Dan.”
“Dan is amazing! I have worked with him and his team multiple times. Extremely satisfied with the service! Dan was extremely responsive (when he was not available by phone, I could always get a hold of someone on the team who could help me out). I can’t recommend this group enough!”
“Awesome realtor. Closed a home with Dan and Amy. Very detailed and easy to work with. I highly recommend them.”
“Dan Gossett is an exceptional person and real estate professional. He is a person of character and integrity and serves his clients at the highest level. He is an excellent communicator, truly listens to your needs, walks you through contracts, coordinates with lenders and escrow, and maintains peace and calm. He also had an excellent inspection team and helped us negotiate a strong seller credit. With Dan you’ll be on the winning team.”
“Dan made the whole process of buying my first home as easy and painless as possible. He really takes the time to understand what you want and need. I had a million questions and he was always super responsive and helpful. I highly recommend Dan to everyone!”
“Dan is an excellent real estate agent with knowledge on different ways to get a house for a buyer. He is dynamic and quick to adapt to different situations. His attention to detail is commendable. He was extremely dedicated and focused in helping us to get our dream home, present at every stage for viewings, short-notice offers, appraisals, loan procedures, and inspections.”
“I had been working with many real estate agents and he is the BEST ever. He is the most hard working with full of enthusiasm and professional manners. I like to ask him don’t work too hard from time to time. He is the best.”
“Where do I begin to praise Dan! A very focused individual with a smiling face always. Just call or message him and he will be there at the time he commits. Gives good suggestions, helps in negotiations and has a wonderful team to work with, right from getting the loan pre-approved, putting in an offer and getting the inspections done to perfection and takes it to closure. Trustworthy individual.”
“My wife and I purchased our first home through Dan! He is kind, knowledgeable, and honest. He answered all our questions quickly and efficiently. He made our house buying experience enjoyable. Look no further, Dan is the best choice. Highly recommend.”
“Dan is the best agent we’ve ever worked with. He did an outstanding job helping us in two transactions. He is professional, knowledgeable and customer service focused, and he is a creative negotiator! We highly recommend Dan!”
“Dan is incredible at what he does. As a first time homebuyer Dan guided me through the entire process, start-to-finish. He had an answer to every question I asked. His insights during home searches and tours were invaluable. When my homebuying journey became unexpectedly complex, his advice and expertise is why I have a home today.”
“Great experience working with Dan. He was quick, responsive and took care of all the annoying details of the home buying process. He provided some great insight and tactics on negotiating for a short sale property which have proved quite valuable. Highly recommended!”
“I had previously worked with 2 other agents before choosing Dan. He is the agent you want. He is knowledgeable, professional, and super timely with all correspondence via phone and email. He is educated on the closing process and helped us structure our offer to make it as appealing as possible. Dan listens to your requests as a buyer and works hard to meet your needs.”
“Dan is very warm and welcoming who takes the time to learn more about what a buyer is looking for. He found an amazing home for my family and I and we couldn’t be happier! Dan was phenomenal in negotiating with the other agent making sure things worked out in our best interest! I highly recommend Dan in helping you find your next dream home!”
“We first met Dan while looking for a home closer to our family in the Sacramento area after living in Monterey County for more than 30 years. Dan went to work lining up a game plan for visiting each property on a holiday whirlwind tour. Dan was very accommodating; his pleasant demeanor, caring attitude and service mentality made a difficult process pleasant. He is a true professional.”
“Dan saved our home buying process. He pointed us to our dream neighborhood, and patiently worked with us while we searched for our dream house. We had some really challenging requirements, but found the perfect home. It was an ultra competitive purchase, but Dan worked lightning fast over a weekend to make it happen, and negotiated a lot of extras for us along the way.”
“Dan was awesome throughout my home buying experience and really went out of his way on multiple occasions to make sure the process went as smoothly as possible. Even with the many weird things that happened during my purchase, Dan powered through and made it all work. Truly dedicated to the quality of his work.”
“Because of luck finding Dan on Zillow, I went into the process just expecting an average realtor, but quickly found out that he was far better. Dan was constantly negotiating to get us a better final cost of ownership, walked us through inspections, and leveraged those for favorable negotiating. He always made us feel we were his top priority.”
“Dan was by far the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. He made the process so easy for us and constantly had our best interest, even on items we didn’t think about. We never once had to call Dan for an update, as he always updated us before we asked. His knowledge for real estate as well as inspections and homes helped catch things we would have never known.”
“Dan is by far the hardest working agent we have ever met. Dan helped us sell our house for more than we could have imagined and helped with even the little details of prepping the home for show. Dan also went above and beyond when it came to buying our new home, making sure we got a great deal even in this crazy market.”
“I’ve had quite a few realtors in my lifetime but none of them come even close to Dan. The most attentive and skilled realtor I’ve ever worked with. Above and beyond describes Dan—researching, calling for estimates, scheduling contractors, pool guys, handymen, etc. He even put in our pool fence while we were prepping for our move. All around great guy and highly recommend him.”
