Meet Danny

Broker, Commercial Division Owner

Why real estate?

My role as a commercial real estate broker began in the ’90s when I joined Jim Scoggins III at his real estate company, Scoggins Real Estate. My commercial real estate success in those early years made it a natural transition for me to assume the leadership role of the firm upon Scoggins retirement.

My involvement in many large-scale developments has taken dedication and perseverance, ultimately changing the downtown Pensacola landscape.

My business and commercial transaction experience includes specialization in all levels of private practice and competitive government real estate transactions. I have successfully completed over 40 GSA (General Services Administration) government transactions. In the retail sector, I was trusted by many franchise groups including over thirty Quick Service Restaurants as well as five full sized Publix grocery stores anchored centers.

During the height of the Gulf Coast resort/residential investment real estate market, I was a party to over 300 transactions involving investment condos and multiple subdivisions, multi-family, and condo developments. From ground-up development to revitalization of specialty properties, my reputation and resounding expertise is getting even the most complicated deals done.

After all, it’s the relationships that matter.

As an honorable member of the National Association of Realtors, and The Florida Association of Realtors, I have been using my broker’s license to provide the best professional commercial real estate investment guidance to clients along Florida’s Panhandle since I was first licensed in 1996.

In The Community

I serve as the President of Pensacola Mardi Gras, an event season in the Pensacola area that has been a tourism and development staple since 1998.

As owner/broker of Scoggins III, Inc., I place my focus on relationships in the community. Since 2001, I have been the exclusive representative for the Escambia County School Board, and the Santa Rosa County School Board since 2016.

I have a deep passion for Pensacola, and come from a long line of actively involved family members who have contributed to the sights and sounds of making a future for generations to come.
