Today we’d like to introduce you to Daniel Collins.
Hi Daniel, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Who is Daniel Collins?
Whether you are buying or selling your home, you are going to spend a good amount of your time with your realtor. You get to choose who you want to spend that time with.
My name is Daniel Collins and I go by the mantra “Not Your Ordinary Everyday Agent.”
“What’s that even mean? Seriously Daniel, what does that mean?”
Well, let me tell you. I am a licensed Broker in both GA and FL. I do not hold to an area. I will help my clients get what they want or sell in either state. I take care of my people. Good care. You won’t find me hard selling. You won’t find me telling my clients to spend more than they should for a property. For me, it is about people and relationships. At the end of our time together, even before it’s over, I want you to call your family, friends, even enemies and tell them to use me as their realtor as well. It’s how it should be in my eyes. I have not done my job if you aren’t.
Now as to the “not ordinary” part, well that I am certainly not.
I am a music-producing, guitar-playing, songwriting, and acting kind of guy who loves real estate. You can see my face on the screen in several episodes of HGTV’s House Hunters, Tiny House Hunters, the Fast and Furious 7, The Originals, The Vampire Diaries, and a handful of indie films in the Southeast. In 2022, NSAI (Nashville Songwriters Assoc INternational) awarded me with Best Submitted Song of the Year with a tune called Postcard Memories! You can hear music I have produced all over the internet and iTunes, including radio spins in the southeast and even overseas. I still spend a fair amount of time on stage playing guitar as well. I have played the same stage with bands such as Kiss, Skid Row, Alabama, Corey Smith, The Lacs, Cypress Hill, Beck, Georgia Satellites, Confederate Railroad…to name a few. I have had the pleasure of hanging out with wrestling legend Stone Cold Steve Austin and having Darius Rucker sing on a song I co-wrote. Needless to say, I do not live an ordinary life.
I am constantly looking for interesting and fun clients to work with. If that is you, call me. You won’t be disappointed.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
As with any business, the upstart and decision to venture out onto my own was a bit daunting. When working in real estate, you can get used to looking to someone else for the answers, aka your broker. When that becomes you, it can be a bit overwhelming at first. Then there is the business itself. Real estate is an odd bird. It is hot when it’s hot and ice cold when it is not. Learning to be ok with both was key. Much like life itself, teaching yourself what to do with downtime might be the hardest thing to learn.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Six String Realty is a full-service real estate company offering assistance to buyers, sellers, and those pursuing commercial real estate. Long-time touring musician and songwriter turned realtor, Daniel Collins had a deep desire to bring his worlds together and with that, Six String Realty was born. If home is where the heart is and music soothes the soul, he just might be onto something.
The mantra “Not Your Ordinary Agents” rings true in this company. Our realtors are from all walks and not one is the typical agent of old. Set aside your reservations or past thoughts on what a real estate agent is and come meet ours.
In terms of your work and the industry, what are some of the changes you are expecting to see over the next five to ten years?
We get stuck following the interest rates so the industry is up and down right now like a roller coaster. That being said, this is also a prime time for investors to buy so it is a matter of which clientele you focus on at what times.
