Santiago Arana was born and raised in a humble middle class family in Bolivia and came to United States after graduating college to learn English. He never anticipated when he landed in the wealthy town of Montecito, California to crash on a relatives couch, that this would be the humble beginnings of his lucrative real estate career. Santiago and I came up in the real estate business together and we were a part of a small group of young Turks who had great success in the early 2000s before the world blew up in the great recession and home sales came to a halt for about 2 years. In those dark days of the great real estate recession we were both under extreme stress and duress as we bought our first homes and had families we were supporting and it seemed like we would never sell a home again. At this point, Santiago dedicated his life to extreme discipline, a positive mind set, meditation and visualization and willed his way to achieve the life he wanted to create. Santi walks the walk and talks the talk and has achieved success at the highest elite level of the residential real estate industry. He puts in the work day after day and there are no short cuts.

More than that he is a dedicated father and husband and is the poster boy for the American Dream. This is the story of the immigrant bus boy with huge ambitions who worked and hustled his way up to the top of the real estate industry. Santiago experienced a lot of heart breaks, disappointments, obstacles and road blocks on this path to greatness and he shares them in this episode of The (real estate) Deal With Danny Brown.
