Hear What my Clients Have to Say

"If you are a foreign, first-time home buyer, Derek is definitely the best agent for you. He is professional, patient, and very detail-oriented. He listened to my needs (eg, Feng Shui) and tried to find options that match those. He is very genuine, down-to-earth, and the most diligent agent I have ever worked with. He is alw… ays responsive to my random questions, even though they come in the early morning or late night. I never felt pressured or forced to make any decision. Highly recommend him to be your realtor!"

"Derek is by far the most professional, yet down to earth realtor I’ve met. I have a real estate background and I have purchased a home in the past and have dealt with a really good realtor, but Derek is unmatched. Timely, professional, goes above and beyond with every step of the process. When we were trying to buy a fixer … upper, the next day, he had a GC there. Every home we have visited together, and there have been quite a few, Derek was in the attack/ crawl spaces, basement, didn’t matter how yucky. He had been great with negotiations, it afraid to reach out to other professionals to go above and beyond for his client. I didn’t mention the post closing treatment you have to hire him to see for yourself!"

"My family and I moved to the US last year and were just getting on our feet. We initially set out to buy a modest home and connected with Derek, who quickly proved to be an invaluable source of local knowledge. When we discovered that mortgage qualification required several months of pay stubs, we pivoted to searching for a… rental instead. Derek remained incredibly generous with his time and continued to support us as our agent, even though we were no longer looking to buy.Fast forward a year—our careers had stabilized, and we were ready to revisit the home-buying process. Once again, we turned to Derek, and once again, he was phenomenal. I’ve rarely encountered someone so consistently responsive—day or night. He moved swiftly to schedule viewings the moment properties became available and tapped into his network to secure a home inspector for our very first viewings, allowing us to act decisively when we found an ideal looking house.Derek was always patient, never pushy, and supported us when we were ready.We truly wouldn’t be picking up the keys to our dream home today without Derek’s endless patience, kindness, and tireless work ethic. He’s an outstanding agent, and while it's a bit bittersweet to have reached the end of this journey, it’s been an absolute pleasure working with him over the past year. We’ll genuinely miss those weekends spent house-hunting together."

"Derek has been amazing and patient with us as we navigated the tough northern Virginia market and buying our first home. Derek helped us understand the different areas, always seemed to know the best local dining areas, and was a tremendous resource for us. We never felt any pressure from Derek, and he was available at all … hours for our random questions or requests to view houses."

"When I first met Derek, he helped me from the beginning and really listened to what I wanted. He is the hardest working person I've met and there was never a time I could not reach him even during early morning or late night. I really trusted Derek and took his best advice for me to make the best decision. He has a very opt… imistic mind and he supported me and guided me throughout the whole process to find my ideal house. He went out of his way and time to find a solutions for my questions. Derek was not like any other agent and was not there for selling me the house. He valued relationships with his clients and treats every client like a close friend or family. For those reasons, it's easy for me to reach out to Derek for any questions and for future help from him. I know that he'll be there when I need him and I know that he'll help any of his clients the same way as I received it."
