Daniel Pyne is the President and Designated Managing Broker of Pyne Properties, LLC, a Chicago based residential and commercial real estate brokerage and property management provider. Dan founded Pyne Properties with the belief that his diverse business background in sales, marketing, and leadership, along with a deep commitment to his clients would result in Pyne Properties becoming the gold standard of professional excellence and a stand-out in an arguably overcrowded industry.
Since entering real estate, Dan has been fortunate to have successfully represented a wide breadth of properties; from the efficiency apartment to an 8,500 square foot 19th century historic mansion, and just about everything in-between. He has developed a reputation as a successful turn-around agent, having being sought out by sellers to take over property listings that had previously struggled to sell with verifiable success. Dan has served as the broker of record for court ordered property sales and has successfully negotiated with lenders and other creditors to restructure debt to avoid foreclosure. In addition, Dan has over over 20 years of experience serving as board president and treasurer for a large condominium association and is licensed community association manager. Clients greatly benefit from his unique depth of knowledge and experience to evaluate homeowner associations. Ultimately, Dan thrives on the unique circumstances that arise with each new client, be it buyer or seller, the shared journey that unfolds and the unforgettable bond that is created during and often long after arriving at the destination.
Outside of his professional real estate life, Dan is an active outdoor enthusiast who enjoys hiking, kayaking, and is as obsessed with sailing as he is helping his clients. During the short summer months in Chicago, you may find him on Lake Michigan at the helm of Never Better, his Pearson 26 sailboat or crewing on a Farr 40 racing yacht. Civically speaking, Dan has served on boards for Lyric Opera of Chicago, Chicago Opera Theater, Third Coast Baroque and others. He is currently the Commodore of the Belmont Yacht Club and Treasurer and Past President of the Chicago Literary Club. Dan is a fluent French speaker (and loves working with French clients). Over the years, has appeared on stage in 18 productions as a supernumerary/actor at Lyric Opera of Chicago and Haymarket Opera Company.
