Discover Dan Lesniak, Navy Seal Turned Real Estate Mogul

Dan Lesniak, a record-breaking real estate consultant sold over twenty-two million dollars in his first year in real estate, a feat less than one percent of all real estate agents ever do in any year in real estate.

Dan has written multiple bestselling books and is the founder of HyperFast Agent which has helped thousands of agents through training, coaching, and podcasts. He has spoken on stage with Grant Cardone, Billy Gene, and Ryan Serhant. Dan is the co-CEO of the Keri Shull Team which sells over half a billion in real estate annually in the DC area. He has helped develop and finance over three hundred homes and started multiple businesses and joint ventures all while managing a team of over one hundred people in the DMV (The Keri Shull Team).

Dan’s interest in real estate peaked when he bought his first home using a VA loan. Speaking about this foundation, he said “My start in real estate came after a period of much rejection. After a career in the Navy as a submarine officer and then a defense contractor I got my MBA from Georgetown and thought it would be the path to landing a great strategy consulting job. I interviewed a lot, but never got an offer. After asking what I could do to get a better shot again they said I lacked sales skills and should get experience at doing that. I decided to get my real estate license as I was buying my fifth house and thought I would do that for family and friends. After a few months I had so much success I quit my job and dove in full time”.

Despite Dan’s track record, he believes that “success is about the journey, not the destination. It is about who you must become to achieve the goals you desire”. This he achieves through mindset. Dan believes it matters more than anything. Although, it does not trump everything.

Walking a path to transparency, he does admit he experiences fear sometimes but believes that with experience, there is room for opportunity and growth and believes that those who will like to be like him should find a profitable passion and commit, which is exactly how he finds his way to the top.

While making the transition from the Navy to real estate was not exactly easy, the doggedness that drove him then is still what pushes him to venture in new projects these days. One is the development of his HyperFast Agent Community. He hopes to sell more than a hundred homes developed by his team in 2021 and start a brokerage that will grow beyond the DC area.
