Dano Graves

I come from a family that has been involved with Real Estate for multiple generations. I grew up in Folsom, CA, where Instead of attending daycare as a young child, I was riding around town on my rollerblades to hand out “open house flyers” for my mother. This, of course, was before the internet.

 After graduating from Folsom High School in 2011, I attended the United States Air Force Academy where I served in the military for two years. From there, I was offered a Division 1 scholarship to play football at Cal Poly. There I met my wife, Heather. She was on Cal Polys’ beach volleyball team. Shortly after my senior season, I was offered a job as the Quarterback’s Coach for the university. I coached there for 3 seasons prior to getting into the mortgage industry in December of 2019.

I put an emphasis in translating my coaching skillset into helping homeowners understand the homebuying process. There are a ton of uncertainties when purchasing a home, so my goal is to educate and coach homebuyers so that they feel confident in the homebuying process.
