Daniel Taylor | CA DRE# 01889109

As Founder and Associate Broker of The Aventus Group | Compass, Daniel Taylor focuses on the sale and disposition of court-involved and fiduciary-held real estate throughout Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego Counties—including probate sales, trust sales, conservatorship sales, partition actions, receiverships, and bankruptcy-related transactions.

A Southern California native, Daniel earned degrees in Environmental Science and Business/Economics from UC Santa Barbara, then received his J.D. from Southwestern Law School. He began his career practicing litigation—including real estate litigation—before returning to his family’s three-generation real estate brokerage practice. That combination of legal training and brokerage experience informs a documentation-forward, process-driven approach that fiduciaries and counsel value when timelines, disclosures, and stakeholder dynamics are complex.

Daniel regularly works alongside trust and estate attorneys, professional fiduciaries, trustees, administrators/executors, conservators, partition referees, and receivers to deliver a defensible, market-ready sale process—from valuation and pre-sale planning through marketing, negotiation, and closing. His goal is consistent: maximize value while reducing friction and limiting liability in high-stakes transactions where clarity, communication, and follow-through matter.

"Daniel was personable and on top of the sale of a deceased brother's house that was in probate. His knowledge of both the real estate industry and legalities that had to do with complicated probate, along with his communication with the probate lawyer, made the process painless."
