About Dakota
Buying or selling a home is a monumentally important transaction, so it makes sense that you want a Realtor that you trust – someone who puts you at ease during a process that can be exhausting. Dakota Shannon understands this. It was his own unpleasant experience with a Realtor when he bought his first property that inspired him to earn his license and help families achieve their dream of finding the ideal home. A Centerville High School graduate, Dakota combines the elements of old school real estate that never go out of style (like genuine, friendly customer service and prompt attention around the clock) with the vital aspects of the industry today (like expert proficiency in implementing Internet, social media and other technological tools to reach the right buyers and sellers). Passion, high energy, due diligence, communication and commitment are traits that Dakota demonstrates and why he is respected as a Realtor you can trust. Raised by a single mother, Dakota Shannon learned the value of hard work; and the importance of character and integrity at a young age. As a boy, he dreamed of owning a house as fast as he could after high school. Becoming a homeowner was a symbol of progress and pride, and he reached that milestone in his early 20s. Inspired by a sincere commitment to providing clients dedicated service and maintaining consistent communication from the first meeting to the closing, Dakota has carved a niche as a Realtor who generates results. The longtime Dayton resident studied business management at Sinclair Community College, and he has a voracious appetite for professional development and personal growth. He is also an avid sand volleyball player and enjoys spending time with his wife, Ashley, their two children, Coraline and Korbyn, and their dog, Kia. And how many Realtors do you know who can represent you as a buyer or a seller and still make you laugh along the way? Dakota brings his sense of humor into his YouTube videos, where he shares practical real estate tips in a relatable way. He was even a performer in The Last Realtor Standing event at the Funny Bone Comedy Club. Whether you are buying or selling, Dakota is a Realtor you can trust to protect your interests at every stage of the process.
