    What a guy! Can't recommend DJ enough to people. Help me and my wife through everything and made sure we were being taken care of. When we had any kind of issue, he was there right away to take care of whatever the problem was. Always answers the phone, always responsive. Would highly recommend DJ for anyone! 10/10

    I cant say enough good things about working with Dj and Beyond The Keys Realty. From start to finish, Dj made the entire buying our first home process incredibly smooth and stress-free. Dj and his team were always available to answer my questions, offered expert advice, and truly had my best interests at heart. His knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and dedication to client satisfaction were evident in every step of the process. Thanks to DJ and the entire Beyond The Keys Realty team, we found the perfect home great price, and DJ was able to get us $30,000 in closing credits to buy down our rate by 2%. He also got us in our home within 21 days !! We couldnt be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend Dj and Beyond The Keys Realty to anyone looking for a trustworthy and hardworking real estate professional!

    DJ was our realtor when we bought our first home in 2019 when we were a family of 5 and he was amazing then! Over the next 6 years he remained close, always kept in touch, checked in, and sent annual Thanksgiving pies. In October 2024 we reached back out to him to potentially sell our 3 bed 2 bath condo and upgrade to our forever home as we were pregnant with our 6th child and would become a family of 8 at the end of November. We fell in love with our first showing and DJ got our offer approved with the contingency to sell our current place. With the economic situation right before the election and high interest rates it was a tough market. The challenge of selling our home was longer than anticipated and we were in escrow for 3 months. Throughout the whole process DJ was our light. He was always right there in our corner and bending over backwards to make things work. He didnt give up on us and instead showed us he was confident we can persevere through this and get to the finish line! His professionalism, honesty, and expertise is unmatched! If you are looking for a realtor who is going to work for you and explore any and every possibility and solution for all your real estate needs, DJ is the one! We are forever grateful for DJ! We would not be in our forever home without him!

Thank you, Courtney, for your excellent assistance!
