Derek sold the house I just renovated, went well, no suprise in this market. Where Derek really shined was in helping me to buy the next project. This was a tough house to get in to see and Derek was on top of the listing agent to get us in the house. We had to act quick to get the offer in (cash). Derek worked late into the night to get the offer written up and was very focused on all the details. After all that I lost sleep over the amount I was offering and called Derek early the next morning to change the price I was offering. Derek jumped on it, had to rewrite the whole offer and got it done. I ende up not getting the property but I had the best shot at it with Derek. He is very knowledgeable on all the options. He also was very thourough with comps to support my offer.

First and foremost, Derek Covey is an amazing human being. With Derek there is never any pressure. He took the opportunity to educate and was patient through the entire process. He is extremely professional, smart and willing to go that extra mile without any hesitation. He is accessible and has such a calm demeanor. His accessibility says a lot about him, even later into the evening if I had questions or an offer came in he would go through it line by line until I felt comfortable. I am a very picky and detail oriented person and let me tell you, Derek did not disappoint at any juncture from listing to closing. Without hesitation, I would use him again, and I highly recommend him if you need an outstanding agent. You will not be disappointed.

"Derek is a true professional and his skills and knowledge of the real estate industry, the Portland market and transactions specifically helped to ensure my home closed in 33 days during a difficult period in our country. Derek was available and responsive to my questions and I felt we collaborated well in all segments of the selling process. Most importantly, I never questioned Derek’s advice along the way and totally trusted that he was on my side. This all added up to a stress free experience and I would wholeheartedly recommend Derek and Redfin’s services to my friends and family."

Derek was very proficient and provided excellent service in all aspects of the home-selling process. He gave us sound advice in prepping the house for sale, setting the sales price, and negotiating the offers when they came in. He guided us through the closing procedures and helped us wrap up everything very smoothly with the buyer’s agent and the title company. Derek is a great communicator, was proactive in keeping us informed of any developments, and always responded promptly to our questions. We would definitely use him again.
