"We used Derek to purchase our current condo and it was a wonderful experience. Derek is very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of purchasing real estate and was able to guide us through the process, from identifying a lender, finding a trustworthy home inspector and working with the seller's agent to ensure we had a smooth sale process. I would definitely work with Derek again for purchasing or selling real estate."

He exceeded my expectations with making this transaction go so smoothly.  For example, he recommended a great lender, got our offer accepted (in spite of multiple competitors), closed on-time, and promptly got us tenants immediately after the closing! He was very informative on numerous aspects of investment properties and has excellent content on his website. Hands down the best realtor I have ever worked with!"

If you are a first time, last time or anytime home buyer/seller and you are serious about finding your perfect...home, I would agree, and advocate for Derek Scranton, in that he stands by his pledge to offer a patient and attentive ear, clear instructions about how real estate works...and he keeps his appointments as well as his promises. From first time home buying to investment properties and anything in between; I would highly recommend Derek for fulfilling any level of your home buying, selling or rental needs."

"It was a pleasure working alongside Derek! He referred a lovely client to our office who was relocating north to our area. From the start, Derek paved the path for a seamless process for our client. He worked with her to get pre-approved through his preferred lender (also a great experience!) and was very helpful in the process of finding the perfect home for the client that fit all of her needs. He was communicative, efficient and strategic throughout the transaction as we helped our client close one chapter, and begin another! I highly recommend his services and look forward to the opportunity of working together again."

"Derek was an awesome Realtor to work with, who went above and beyond for his client in the midst of a hurricane. He managed to secure movers to get the deal closed without a hitch. This was particularly important here, where his client was moving into another property. We look forward to the opportunity to work with him again. Way to give your client that top-notch service!!"
