Derek Hooper Low Commission Real Estate

We retained Derek to list our house for sale based on the good reviews we read. Derek met and exceeded our expectations. He was excellent to work with and his professional advice was always on point. He guided us through the listing and sale process, and maintained good communication with the buyer's agent. He was courteous, professional, and patient. He gave us room to think through the different options and make decisions, we did not feel pressured to make a decision in a certain way. It was a very smooth process. I would highly recommend Derek if you are thinking about selling your property.

Derek was great at communicating with us throughout this process. The first time he sat down with us he listened to our ideas but also shared his ideas and explained ' the why' it made sense . He had other professionals lined up to do photography, come in and gives us staging input etc. Our house sold quick and above asking and we are very pleased. Would recommend Derek without hesitation.

My husband and I recently sold current home and subsequently bought our next one with the help of Derek and we are extremely impressed and satisfied by the service that he provided us. There are so many reasons to partner with Derek when selling or buying in Durham...Here are a few based on our recent experience: - Responsiveness is truly unmatched - he usually gets back within minutes and is always happy to answer any questions. - Commission rate - in today's market, every dollar counts if trying to purchase your next home, and Derek offers the highest level of service at a competitive rate. There is no loss of value whatsoever. - Integrity - this is a rare one. While helping us buy our home, Derek never once tried to rush us or 'sell' / convince us on any house, good or bad. He would suggest things to look out for, but never imposed too strong of an opinion. He was also extremely flexible and accommodating with our schedule, even going so far as to change his own. We discussed our budget and he never tried to get us to go above that. Overall, we are very happy that we were able to partner with Derek and he has gained our trust and loyalty. We will definitely refer him to anyone buying or selling and wish him the very best in all his endeavors.

All I can say is Amazing. From the start Derek was honest and had our best interests in mind. I told Derek what I was looking for and my budget and he went to work to find our perfect home. Buying our house was stressful enough and Derek really helped by being patient. I am so happy we chose Derek to help us find our home, Absolute rock star.
