Derek did a great job in guiding us through the home selling process, always answered our questions, and made us feel at ease with this huge change in our lives. Derek is extremely knowledgeable in market conditions and the things required to sell our home. Derek is also great at ensuring our needs and concerns are met to complete the home sale.

Derek is a great person to work with. His knowledge and experience helped us sell our home in around 48 hours. He gives great advice and helped us prepare our home for sale and kept in contact through the complete experience.

Derek and his wonderful staff were once again on the ball and top notch. We've used him since 2010 and should we buy or sell another house he will be who my wife and I will be using. Always. We always recommend him when we hear people are looking to sell or buy house. Expect honesty, integrity and respect when you deal with this group.

My wife and I were very happy with our decision to work with Derek. He exceeded all of our expectations because he was extremely knowledgeable and always pointed out the little things in each house we visited. He was always kind and professional. Even when we texted or called late at night he immediately answered. We highly recommend Derek for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Before working with Derek the thought of selling my condo was daunting. However, after meeting Derek, his vast knowledge of the market and his years of experience immediately put my mind at ease. I acted on his advice regarding the preparation of the sale of my condo which included sensible, strategic pricing and hiring a professional stager. It really paid off as we were able to sell at the top price point in the condominium complex and in a very short period of time! The level of professionalism Derek and his team displayed throughout the entire process was top notch and appreciated!

Derek is a true professional and performs at the highest level. I have worked with him in a number of real estate transactions. He has assessed both my needs and how market trends would impact those needs. His guidance and expertise (from things such as staging, profesional photos and videos, as well as marketing) led me through both home sales and purchases that were sound investments and maximized the proceeds. I appreciate his integrity and honesty and will continue to partner with him for any future real estate need.

We bought with Derek five years ago and thought he got us the best value property Royal Oak had to offer at that time. Recently we decided to move to Troy. He worked with us to get our home below our max budget- for the home we wanted, not best available and there is a difference. Then time to sell. He was aggressive on the sales price of our home in Royal Oak and we were not on board with his suggestions. He told us trust him, his suggestions, and trust the value of staging. We did and he gave us current, relevant market research for where we stood and again, we trusted him. He listed our home and in 36 hours we had multiple offers. Didn't even need an open house which shocked us. We sold well over what he expected, but more importantly, he sold it for well over what we expected. Knocked it out of the park.

We used Derek and his team to sell our Lyon Township home, 9 days and a few dollars from asking. There were some negotiations following the buyers inspection that Derek took the reins on and closed with minimal cost and effort. His entire Team is and was professional, well grounded in the real estate business, responded quickly and efficiently. The video and drone marketing was a wonderful and successful marketing tool. We highly recommend Derek and his team. We have never worked with a better real estate team.

Derek was very knowledgeable and helpful. As first time homebuyers, Derek helped us to navigate the oftentimes overwhelming process of finding and purchasing a home. He listened to what we wanted in a house and tried to deliver those things, while helping to keep our expectations realistic for our budget. His schedule was flexible, which was great for my husband I who don't have typical work hours. On occasions when we needed to see a house in a hurry and he wasn't available, his colleague Marcia would work with us to ensure we would not miss a house we wanted to see. Even after the sale, Derek keeps in touch to see how things are going with our first home. We would recommend him to friends and family looking for a realtor.

Derek helped me and my wife buy a house in 2006 and 9 years later he was our only call when we wanted to list it for sale. Derek is incredibly hard working, very responsive, and his knowledge of his craft is peerless. I have recommended him to many of my personal friends and colleagues and without question will in the future.Scott
