I've always heard people say how long or tedious the home buying process is, but my experience has been the exact opposite thanks to Derek and my Realtor. I couldn't have asked for a better duo.

I couldn't have asked for a better duo. They've made this process a breeze and in record timing. From my initial call with Derek, it was obvious that he was "seasoned". He was not only knowledgeable but also patient when answering a roulette of questions from my mother and I or simplifying things for us to easily understand. His honesty and "straight to the point" demeanor made me feel comfortable to trust his professional opinion. One of the last questions I had asked Derek during our first call was if it was true that I'm able shop for mortgages within a 14-day window without the multiple inquiries negatively affecting my credit. He confirmed. I had every intention to reach out and schedule appointments with various financial institutions to weigh my options and compare rates, but I never got the chance too because shortly after my preapproval process with Rocket Mortgage, I visited 3 properties with my agent and fell in love with the last home I toured. It was almost 10pm in the evening when I received a call from Derek saying, " I was cooking pasta when I got a text that you made an offer CONGRATULATIONS". I knew then that I had made the right choice, and that Derek and Rocket Mortgage were a one stop shop. 10/10Read MoreRead Less

Thank you Derek! You were very informative throughout the whole process from loan application to close. You laid out all the facts for my questions without being pushy or persuasive. You are very easy to talk to as well, making the our phone calls much more enjoyable.

YOU ARE THE MAN!!! Made everything so easy and explained in detail everything I didn’t understand and wasn’t sure about. Thank you so much Derek from the bottom of my heart. I wouldn’t have been able to get through everything with out him!
