United Real Estate Louisville
“Working with Derrick was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He and his team helped get our property completely ready for market by coordinating repairs, cleanup, and improvements that made a huge difference in how the home showed. His team worked tirelessly and brought a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience to the project, making the entire process smooth and efficient. Derrick’s understanding of what buyers are looking for and what actually adds value was incredibly helpful. Once the property was ready, he handled the listing and marketing process seamlessly, and the home sold quickly. What could have been a stressful situation became simple and organized thanks to Derrick and his team. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to prepare and sell a property.”

“Traci and another agent from her group, Lana, helped me see as many houses as I wanted. They were very helpful and considerate. Between the two ladies, I saw so many houses and never felt pushed to buy any of them. I was informed of potential issues with houses and they respected if I didn't like something about a house. Days before I was set to go back home, Traci found a house that had just come on the market and I bought it! It has almost everything on my wish list. I couldn't be happier!”

“Lana Stephens and Traci Mitchell are a pleasure to work with. They are professional and friendly, and know their business. They not only sold my late father's townhome, they helped me completely gut and remodel it. And I live out of state! Their team put together a great plan. They kept in constant contact with plans, purchases and those things that pop-up when remodeling. I appreciate their patience, kindness and special treatment since it was my father's place. I can't think of a better fit for what I needed. I highly recommend them to work with any situation.”
