Happy New Year! Home sellers and buyers can be HAPPY in January.

Your New Year’s Eve party plans may still be up in the air, but your home selling/buying goals are probably are being made now.  After seeing home values on a steady rise for the last year, owners may have considered selling their home, and future home buyers are still encouraged to buy that home with low interest rates.  However, it would be too easy to say that we want to buy when the home prices are low and sell when home prices are up.  Life events do no always allow us to time selling or buying.  Our lives dictate when we are ready to buy or sell.  Sometimes, however, we can be strategic about our home goals.  While everyone has their own selling/buying timeline, it can make sense to try and get your own goals inline with what the market does.

After looking at data from Trend Graphix for the last three years in Ventura County, you will notice some very regular trends.  In the graph below, notice the bell curve shape of the homes for sale, homes sold and homes pending for sale.  The top of the curve shows us that regularly the summer months have the most homes sold, while December in particular has the lowest homes sold.  What is also important to note is homes sold in January always INCREASE.  That means that as a home seller or buyer you can EXPECT the market to increase in homes sold this coming January.  This may mean setting yourself up now for selling in the New Year could be the best Resolution you can make.  If you would like to discuss if now is the best time to sell your home or buy a new one, please contact me.

Our Mission Statement

“Personal Service, Professional Results”

Personal Service

In Real Estate there are deals and there are people behind the deals.  We focus on creating a smooth Real Estate experience for you by doing our best to understand what you need from us to make buying or selling a home successful.  We do our best by asking questions and listening to you carefully then genuinely serving your needs. 

Professional Results

We also, however, strive to get you the results you want by being tough in negotiating the best deal for you and being organized and communicative during this complex transaction to make sure every part of the process is taken care of properly.  To help you accomplish your goals, Derrick applies his successful competitive experiences in sports and education to exceed performance expectations and get you the results you want.

What others have said

Derrick is as good as it gets, possibly even better! He helped us purchase our first home. He knows his stuff and did a great job helping us find a place in our budget. He understands the process and communicates with his clients which to me is the most important part of picking a professional to work with. Derrick is highly recommended!

Shawn Lakhani

Derrick helped us find our first house and I can't even begin to say how thankful I am for using him. For a process that can be so incredibly tedious and hard, he made it such a breeze. He is honest, hardworking, and will go above and beyond. I have and will continue to recommend him to everyone that I know. In the future whether we are buying or selling we will not use anyone else. He is THE absolute best. Thank you so much so helping us buy our first house Derrick, we are forever grateful!

Kaitlin Winter

Wow! Well done!! I've been a commercial real estate agent for 16 years and I had dozens of agents who wanted to work with me. Derrick dug up the right property and then far exceeded my expectations. Bonus: We had a lot of fun in the whole process! Derrick is knowledgeable, professional, proactive AND a highly moral level headed guy. He's a gem of a find. As my buyers agent Derrick tracked every aspect of the deal for me which made the whole transaction a breeze. He answered all my questions and/or tracked down the information I wanted/needed. To top it off his referral source of trades and related resources was equally impressive. There's no question that he and I will be working together in the future. If you want a good experience (life is short, EVERY experience should be good, and fun) do yourself a favor and just give Derrick an interview and you'll immediately see what I'm talking about.

Shaun Bieniek

Derrick is AMAZING. He went above and beyond my expectations of what an agent would/should do. Derrick is the true definition of caring, compassionate and trustworthiness you will ever find. We would not trust anyone else to sell our house.

The Law Family

When we needed to find a realtor to help us find a property in Camarillo as part of a 1031 exchange, we thought of Derrick.

Our transaction was a little more challenging than most in that we were selling two properties out of state that were also involved in the exchange and finding a replacement property and closing was key. Finding a property was time consuming in a hot market but Derrick never gave up hope that we would find a property. Once we entered into escrow, Derrick connected us with an exchange company and the transactions were closed in a smooth and timely manner.

Derrick was a pleasure to work with and we would definitely recommend him to our friends.

-Lisa

Working with Derrick was an honest pleasure. He always went out of his way to accommodate our busy schedules when it came time to looking at houses. He had a series of questions before we started looking to insure that he set us up with the right home for our future. He is professional, knowledgeable, creative in his methods, personable, and best of all effective. I highly recommend him.

Itzie Alarcon

I was really impressed with Derrick's overall real estate service. Within less than two weeks of putting my house on the market, we had a great offer! Derrick was a true professional guiding me through the process of selling my home. Derrick is knowledgeable, diligent, and caring. I highly recommend Derrick to handle your real estate needs!

I just wanted to say again how amazing and easy Derrick made this process...I hope you know that you are part of the family!
