View All ListingsDerrick was so kind and thoughtful, and incredibly knowledgeable. He helped us get things done quickly and efficiently but without overlooking anything! He had all the connections we needed for any of the services we needed done. Seriously cannot recommend him enough!
Derrick was an amazing realtor, and we could not be happier that we chose him to guide us through the purchase of our first home! He answered any and every question that we had (and there were quite a lot of them). Derrick encouraged us to explore different areas and home types so that we could nail down what exactly it was that we were looking for. We never felt rushed and felt like he truly enjoyed helping us learn more through the process. He was outstanding at communicating and even helped us work through last-minute closing details. From starting the pre-approval process to exploring major fixer-upper homes to closing on our new construction home, Derrick supported us every step of the way. We are very thankful for him and couldnt have started this new stage of life without him! Thank you for caring so deeply about your clients!
Derrick is really helpful! This is my first time buying a house, its lucky for me to have him help in this complicated process. He answered all of my questions with detailed instructions and respond immediately even though it was late. If I know any friend wants to buy a house, Ill definitely introduce him.

He listened to what I was looking for and helped guide me through each step of the way in our home buying journey! I felt like he genuinely cared about helping us to find the right place. If you need a realtor whos friendly, patient, and really knows what hes doing, Derricks your guy. Highly recommend!
Derrick was AMAZING! Great to work with and helped us get a home that we love! He was constantly looking for me and my husband a home that would meet our needs.

We would highly recommend!
Derrick was an incredible realtor to work with. From start to finish, he helped me get my home and made the entire process so much easier. He always answered the phone every time I called and, if he didnt know the answer to one of my questions, he was happy to find out and work through it with me. Derrick did everything I asked of him and guided me through every step of the process. Not only is Derrick a professional, but he is also a good man of God who genuinely cares about his clients.

I am so glad Zillow matched us with Derrick, because he helped us through out the home buying process every step of the way. When showing potential homes, he would point out possible issues we could run into which helped a ton when finally finding our new home. We even plan on having him sell the house we moved from!
Derrick was an absolute joy to work with! My husband and I were new to home ownership, and the process was extremely overwhelming. But Derrick stuck by us the entire time, and provided us with so many helpful tips. He has so many connections that made the buying process easy. Thank you so much for helping us find our dream home!
Derrick is a world class agent, and I do not use that term lightly. If you are in the market for a new home do yourself a favor and give him a call. Between negotiation and communication skills, he navigated an already difficult market with ease.
Being relatively new to Birmingham (2 years), we didnt have any idea of what realty agency or agent we should do business with. So, as the luck of the draw would have it, we were connected with Derrick Blackshear with EXIT Realty Southern Select, via Zillow. We could not be more satisfied! Derrick reached out promptly regarding a house we were interested in seeing. He was not the least bit overbearing or pushy. Derrick was always very timely in his communications; we never had to wait long for a reply. He knew exactly what we would be challenged with and always provided valuable resources and information. Derrick understood our challenges and even frustrations and helped us all along the way. We are so thankful to have had him as our agent. We totally offer our highest recommendation in Derrick!
Derrick Blackshear was amazing! He bent over backwards to make sure my familys needs were met. His open communication ensured our entire experience went smoothly and he quickly remedied any misunderstandings. Honestly, with his help, I fully understood every aspect of this very complicated and sometimes convoluted process. I will be recommending Derrick to anyone I know in the market.
Moving to a new area out of state can be very scary. Derrick helped my husband and I through a very stressful time. He was patient with us in finding the perfect house. He is extremely kind and friendly. I would definitely recommend Derrick for you buying experience.

Derrick is more than just a Real Estate Agent - he becomes your family. Derrick worked hard for almost a year until he found exactly what my family was looking for. He didn't hesitate to jump right in and make our dreams come true. He was always there for me when I had questions and even when I just needed a little reassurance. Derrick will go above and beyond for you! He is the best of the best. I, not only have a friend for life but also if I ever need a Realtor again - I know exactly who I will use!

We recently worked with Derrick Blackshear to sell my aunts home. Derrick walked us through the process with grace and patience and went the extra mile to make everything go as smoothly as possible. He was great with communication, and we would highly recommend him!
Derrick did a great job helping us sell our home. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the market. He was great communicating any needs, as well as results from showings. He also communicated well with other realtors who had clients looking at the house.
Derrick was very helpful in making my buying process as easy as possible for me. He has a willingness to go above and beyond to ensure the best experience for his client. This is why I am also using him to sell my previous home.
Derrick helped us in both the buying and selling process and was great the whole time! He was available when we needed him and always seemed joyful to help us! We had some difficult buyers and he helped us navigate all of their issues and let us vent to him a little in the process! He made sure everything was done in a timely manner and we closed right on schedule! Hes wonderful and you cant go wrong!
We were referred to Derrick by our pastor and we were pleased with his services. At times I felt like we were running him all over town and back again, but he always greeted us with a smiling face. He was very encouraging after several offers were not accepted. We spent a few weeks trying to find a perfect home, and he was with us every step of the way. His response times were always quick, and even when we changed things at the last minute, he was ok with that. Derrick was always willing to go the extra mile for us.
Derrick went to work right away. My husband's co-worker highly recommended Derrick after he has helped her find her own home. He didn't disappoint. Derrick got in contact with us right away and began searching homes for us. He understood our special situation since we were out -of -state but worked to accommodate our needs and even did virtual showings for us. We truly felt taken care off by somebody that really cared. Thank you, Derrick, for all your hard work.
Derrick helped us with a huge move! We were moving from Texas to Alabama and he treated us as if we were there in person. He would video call us, take tons of additional video & photos for follow up conversations. When our FaceTime wouldn't connect he'd offer other methods of communication. His communication is outstanding! We had a pretty wide area we were looking at and Derrick never seemed rushed or skipped a beat. He was eager, prompt, thorough, friendly & professional. He isn't afraid to negotiate and he's honest enough to admit if he doesn't know something but dedicated to finding the answer promptly. Derrick definitely exceeded our expectations and we couldn't have asked for a better realtor! Thank you Derrick Blackshear for providing exceptional service and making our journey from Texas to Alabama so special. You truly made us feel like family.
I have had the privilege of knowing Derrick for several years. I have found him to be a man who is honest and whatever he has ever told me has been absolute truth. He is a very dedicated family man who has a strong work ethic and is a man of impeccable character. I would not hesitate to use Derrick in any business venture.
