• Why Ali left a secure job as a federal agent to pursue freedom through entrepreneurship
• The importance of aligning your business with your core values — not just your skills
• How Ali replaced her income and scaled with leveraged offers
• The role of authenticity in attracting the right clients
• Why mindset shifts are the foundation of sustainable business success
• …and much more!

After 3 years in the business, Ali has closed over 100 transactions, as a solo agent. And the first year, she was just part time, since she was still Active Duty Air Force working as a Special Agent for the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (Think NCIS...but for the Air Force).

With too many leads to handle, she started a team (NO team splits) to be able to continue scaling.

Now, with almost 100 agents on her team in 15 cities and 2 countries, she now dedicates her time to outbound referrals and coaching her agents. She's looking to partner with other agents in other markets near an Air Force Base.

On the investing front, she used the VA loan to start investing and start a rental portfolio. With revenue share and cash flow from her rental properties, she cash flows $10,000 per month.

• Wealth has a weight. Success brings responsibility—to yourself, your family, and the ecosystem you create.
  
  
• Environment matters. Who you surround yourself with can expand your vision—or keep you small.
  
  
• Treat your business like a business. Real estate is inconsistent—your habits and skills must be rock solid.
  
  
• Mastery is a journey. From conscious incompetence to subconscious competence, success is earned through repetition.
  
  
• You have a choice. Choose to silence the noise, rewrite your story, and act from courage instead of fear.

Daniel Del Real is a 1st generation American and the team leader of The Del Real Group, one of California’s top-ranked real estate teams. Over the past 20 years, Daniel has built a successful career based on excellence, innovation, and consistent execution. His team has been recognized as the #1 highest-producing large and medium team in California by RealTrends, securing the top spot 4 out of the last 5 years (2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023). During this time, Daniel has helped nearly 4,500 families and sold over $1.3 billion in real estate.

Before embarking on his real estate journey, Daniel served 4 years in the United States Air Force, where he developed the discipline and leadership skills that would later shape his entrepreneurial path. Over the years, he has fully embraced the entrepreneurial lifestyle, excelling not only in his professional endeavors but also in his family and spiritual life.

Financially independent for the past 8 years, Daniel attributes his success to one core belief: “We are simply stewards of what God has entrusted us with.” His disciplined financial approach includes giving 10% of his income annually and investing 70-80% of his earnings, which has allowed him to build a $40 million personal portfolio consisting of 150+ rental units, four businesses, and 48 streams of income.

While reaching #1 is an impressive achievement, maintaining that position year after year requires a clear vision, effective systems, and unwavering discipline. Daniel and his team have implemented scalable systems that drive their continued success while delivering exceptional value to their clients.

As the host of the exclusive GoBundance Members Only Podcast “7-2-8 Show: The Hunt to Eight Figures,” Daniel helps entrepreneurs scale their net worth from $1 million to $10 million by sharing insights from guests who have achieved these milestones.

• 2x finisher of the 140.6 Ironman
• Member of Team Gold Rush, completing multiple 36-hour All-Out Adventure Races

With a track record of high performance, commitment to personal growth, and dedication to his clients, Daniel Del Real exemplifies what it takes to thrive in both real estate and life.
