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 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!

Answered Questions

Commerical or residential property, which has more value?

The most prudent way to determine this is to have a highest and best use assessment completed. I would recommend engaging a top-performing agent and/or local, seasoned appraiser to aid you in that determination. It would be difficult to answer that question without having that input, even based on the summary you provided. Good luck! -Derek
