Daniel Alexander

Daniel Alexander is the Principal and Managing Director of LJ Hooker Southern Gold Coast and Coolangatta Tweed. The Alexander family name has been synonymous with the Southern Gold Coast property market for almost three decades.

In 2015, Dan and his father, Bob Alexander, acquired LJ Hooker Southern Gold Coast. In 2018, the business expanded into Coolangatta Tweed; and shortly after opened their specialist Commercial Property Division — LJ Hooker Commercial Southern Gold Coast.

Dan has been building the business since this time with a focus on bringing the right people into the business and growing a high-performance culture. As the founder of LJ Hooker said, "real estate is not about property, it's about people." With the right people, systems, and innovative technology, Dan has enabled his team to deliver consistently successful outcomes to LJ Hooker clients.

Dan is fully licensed and accredited in QLD and NSW and holds university qualifications in Business and Psychology. Prior to entering the real estate industry, Dan held various senior management and advisory positions in the private, public and not-for-profit sectors.

Dan's hard work has been recognised with numerous awards over the past 6 years. LJ Hooker Southern Gold Coast was named in the REB Top 50 Sales Offices in Australia in 2019, and Dan was personally awarded Business Owner of the Year within the LJ Hooker QLD & Northern NSW network in 2020. Most recently, Dan and his business partner Brett Gleeson were named Business Owners of the Year 2025, a recognition of their joint leadership and success. Dan was also recognised in the Top 15 Most Influential Real Estate Agents on the Gold Coast by the Gold Coast Bulletin.

Dan is a family man who enjoys his spare time with his wife and two children. He will speak to you honestly and openly, based on his values of integrity, service, and social responsibility. Dan has a calm and considered demeanour, a hidden sense of humour, and a passion for helping people.
