It’s all about relationships.

Whether selling or buying a home, your agent becomes your partner. It's not just about experience and market know-how, but finding that champion who's got your back and guides you every step of the way!

About me.

I’ve spent my career thinking about the way people live in and experience space.

For more than a decade, I designed and managed residential and commercial projects as an architect and interior designer. Later, I traded blueprints for cocktail shakers and owned a neighborhood cocktail bar in Brooklyn, where I developed a deep appreciation for hospitality and creating memorable experiences.

Today, I’m an Associate Real Estate Broker with Compass, where those experiences shape the way I approach every client and every home. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping hundreds of clients buy and sell homes throughout the Hudson Valley and Catskills. My background in architecture and design allows me to help sellers present their homes thoughtfully and strategically while giving buyers the confidence to recognize potential where others might not. I believe every home has a story to tell, and my job is to help sellers tell it well while helping buyers recognize it when they see it.

Outside of real estate, I spend much of my free time making functional ceramics in my home studio and at a community studio in Kingston. I love creating pieces that are meant to be used every day, and it’s another way I get to explore my appreciation for craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and the spaces we live in.

When I’m not working with clients or in the pottery studio, you’ll usually find me exploring the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley with my husband, tending my garden, discovering local restaurants, cooking, or unwinding beside a creek or campfire.

I love helping people discover what makes the Hudson Valley such a special place to call home, and I’d love the opportunity to help you do the same.

What people are saying.

  • I've now worked with Danny on 4 different transactions (2 sales, 2 purchases) and I can't recommend him enough. In working with Danny, I realized that working with an agent - at its best - feels like working with a trusted collaborative partner who understands and sees your vision for your life and works with you to achieve it. But coupled with that: he also has a studied and thorough sense of the broader market mindset and so was able to provide us with key guidance throughout the process. Danny has been a thorough part of our (almost day-to-day) lives for the better part of a year and I'll miss him now that he's (with rousing success) completed all of the year's transactions with us. He's an excellent agent and, on top of that, an excellent person.

  • Working with Danny has been a wonderful experience! He’s an incredibly professional and thorough agent and an overall gem of a human. From staging to closing, he went above and beyond every step of the way - offering informed guidance and eager to answer any questions that came up. Real estate can be a very emotional and stressful journey, but having an agent that understands you, your values and the house you imagine for your life is a game changer. I couldn’t recommend Danny enough!

    Lindsey Y • Hudson

  • Danny is The BEST! We’ve worked with Danny on five different properties, both buying and selling. He got us above asking price on all three properties that we’ve sold and made the transactions go so smoothly. The pictures and videos that he took of our homes came out simply gorgeous and generated a ton of traffic for the listings. As for helping us with the purchase of a home and a plot of land, he knew all of the right questions to ask, explained things to us in detail and is just overall a wealth of knowledge. Highly recommend!ist Item

    Dyanna R. • Kerhonkson

  • Danny was an absolute dream to work with on the sale of our house in Kerhonkson. He is proactive, organized, responsive, and an expert on the upstate market. Selling a house can be an emotional roller coaster but Danny’s knowledge and sense of humor kept us sane and actually made it a fun process! Not to mention, he sold our house in record time and for much more than we expected. Hands down, best realtor ever!

    Caroline S. • Kerhonkson

  • Danny is an exceptional realtor who consistently exceeded our expectations. His in-depth market knowledge, coupled with his attentive and responsive service, made selling our home a breeze. Danny’s proactive approach, including multiple visits to our house during showings and the pre-closing period, provided us with peace of mind. His ability to capture our home’s best features through stunning photography and effective advertising played a crucial role in attracting potential buyers. His dedication to ensuring a smooth process directly contributed to the swift sale of our home. We wholeheartedly recommend him.

    Tina N. • Accord

  • Danny was outstanding. We used him to sell our Catskills vacation house and once I chose him I knew I made the right choice. It was total headache free, he found us a great buyer who loved the home like we did, his photos were beautiful and the advertising and promotions were great. It was a pleasure working with him.

    Sarah S. • Parksville

  • I highly recommend Danny Romero! He is a spectacular agent! He helped us buy and sell multiple homes, the last one happening during these more recent difficult times. He's very insightful, helping to provide thoughtful input along the way as we are builders/rehabbers who bought/sold on spec. He's a great agent to have in your corner (during the process of getting ready to list a home to sell and then when you're selling, he's great at negotiations too). If you're looking to sell a home in the Hudson Valley, choose Danny as your real agent!

    Jeanine I. • Olivebridge

  • Danny provided thoughtful, dedicated attention to us and our questions and concerns throughout the process and was a stellar representative of our interests. I can't recommend him highly enough.

    Madeline R. • Kerhonkson

  • Danny was great from start to finish. Not only did he facilitate a smooth transaction for the sale of our A-frame, he really went above and beyond with design advice along the way. You can’t go wrong teaming up with him!

    Elaine B. • Kerhonkson

  • “Danny was great to work with selling my house! During the sale process I discovered problems with the house I was unaware of, but Danny didn’t give up. He worked around the problem in an ethical way and got the home sold! He was always responsive and really helped with negotiation! I am so appreciative of the work Danny did to get my home sold!”

    Samantha C. • Freehold

  • “Danny is the realtor you want if you are looking to sell your home. He sold our house in Rhinebeck in spring 2021, and we got multiple offers and accepted the highest one within a week. The process was so stress free and seamless it blew our minds. Danny exudes a low-key coolness that embodies what everyone loves about the Hudson Valley and the Catskills.

    Hillary L. • Rhinebeck

  • "Danny truly was an amazing agent! If you want your beloved property to be represented at its best, absolutely get in touch with Danny!

    Cecelia P. • Coxsackie

  • I can't say enough good things about Danny and his team. Our first meeting we were left with a list of things to do. We followed his directions and when the time came his team displayed and marketed the house in an amazing light. Because of his work and knowledge we were blown away with the traffic he generated. Sold our house in 5 days! List Item

    Chris R. • Highland

  • Danny was great! We really appreciate the way in which he marketed and represented our home. His outlets attracted serious and interested buyers and ultimately led to us receiving multiple offers in less than a week. We would definitely recommend working with Danny.

    LaKeisha N. • Livingston Manor

  • From start to finish, service was impeccable. Photos, price decision, listing, and most importantly getting the house sold quickly and at a good price!!

    Scott T. • Phillipsport

  • We were on the fence about selling the house but Danny came through to meet us, tour the house and gave us a very solid estimate on what we could get. From start to finish they were a delight. The house closed within a couple of months from us getting an offer, off market, and a lot higher than we’d expected.

    Laurence J. • Jewett

  • I was anxious about the timing of selling my house and Danny was patient and visited my property a couple of times to answer my questions. It eased my mind and paid off because when we did list the house, we sold quickly for over asking price and had multiple offers. I can’t say enough great things about Danny and his team! I would definitely work with them again and recommend them 100 percent!

    Ruth F. • Walkill

  • Daniel was wonderful to work with. His marketing skills are top notch. Bottom line is he will get your house sold!

    Susanne B. • Livingston Manor

  • Danny is the absolute best. In a high stress, highly emotional process, he made everything feel low key in the best possible way. The next time we sell, it'll be Danny, no question.

    Blake M. • Catskill

  • Danny was great every step of the way! He priced our house perfectly, gave us some quick but useful pre-selling tips and has the reach to get our house tons of interest! I would highly recommend him - he knows his stuff!

    Rosey O. • Pine Bush

  • To say this experience was amazing is an understatement. From the initial meeting to the closing, Danny and his team went over and above ! We got higher than any house on the street and it was fast and pain free !!!
