About Daniel
My approach is centered on exceeding your expectations and my goal is to make you a client for life.  Enthusiasm is the key, and it comes naturally to me because of my passion for the industry. I have been doing it for 15 years and over this time have accumulated a loyal database of buyers and sellers who, put simply, trust no other agent to personally handle their property needs. I have been a Northern Beaches resident all my life, meaning I have an intimate and educated knowledge of the area and its dynamic property market.  With strong foundations in residential sales, I have been busy broadening my expertise over the years to encompass new developments, site amalgamations and project marketing.  I have never been one to shy from a challenge and my drive, persistence and commitment to a smooth, stress-free sales process has underpinned my success to date.

About us

The evolution of Laing+Simmons Dee Why | Freshwater At Laing+Simmons Dee Why | Freshwater don’t simply want to serve the community, we are committed to being a part of it. After all, our team has been a fixture in the local community for some time. In 2009, Daniel Nero took control of independent real estate office Vogue Agency, and the foundations for the business that would become Laing+Simmons Dee Why were laid. After much investigation, with the strong belief that a boutique brand synonymous with quality was necessary, Vogue Agency became Laing+Simmons Dee Why in 2015. It was clear that only the revitalised Laing+Simmons brand would fit the company’s commitment to quality service, to focus on building a strong business for the future as part of the local community. The Laing+Simmons advanced tools, systems, marketing and brand support are an important advantage for our clients as we head into this exciting new phase in real estate marketing, winning several technology awards in 2016. In 2021, Linda Nero joined our Laing+Simmons Dee Why Team to assist Daniel in elevating the brand and stepping up the agency to a new level. As of 2023, Laing+Simmons Dee Why has moved to a brand new location in Freshwater Village to service a wider community, now trading as Laing+Simmons Dee Why | Freshwater. The Laing+Simmons focus is always customer-focused and this aligns perfectly with our approach. That’s because we owe our success to you. Contact Laing+Simmons Dee Why | Freshwater today for a truly local service for all your real estate needs.

Honest, caring and extremely professional!

Daniel is an extremely professional, honest and respectful agent. He first valued my property over a year ago when I had no capacity to sell as I was in treatment for cancer. Over that year he phoned to check on me and not ONCE chased me to sell. I had been upfront about not wanting to sell and he respected that. Six months at least since we last spoke my circumstances changed. I had unexpected bought my dream home. I called Daniel and several local agents to value my property. Daniel was realistic in his valuation and the state of the current market. He not once spoke ill of other agents to promote himself. Daniel was completely professional. He had a strong plan for the sale of my property and knew he had to sell the property fast as I was due for major surgery. I needed to maximise my sale price in the market and sell quickly - Daniel more than met my expectations. He was beyond supportive. Daniel and Abrielle Ross worked tirelessly to show my unit in its best light. They secured me a very good sale price in a declining market. Daniel was always available to me and he and Abrielle promoted the property so well that within 3 viewings I had had nearly 50 people through and the property was sold in time for my surgery and I could relax and focus on my health. Daniel’s support and compassion over the last couple of years made him the obvious choice to sell my home. I cannot recommend Daniel and Abrielle strongly enough.

Fantastic professional agent - great communicator

Daniel and his team, especially Abrielle Ross, were professional and supportive from the start. They explained their strategy, advised us on styling and helped with practical arrangements, and secured us a very good sale price in a challenging market. Throughout, they were supportive, honest and caring. Nothing was too much for them. We chose Daniel as the agent for us after interviewing 4 other local agents as we felt his interest, open style, and knowledge best suited our needs to secure a quick but good sale. Daniel was always willing to listen to our views and he secured a number of good offers before advising us on the offer we eventually accepted.

Tactful, Astute & a Man of his word

Daniel's experience, old world professionalism & new world skills were both greatly appreciated & also invaluable to us as vendors. His patience is second to none & his market intuition, even in times of extreme flux, is a force to be reckoned with!
