Derek is an
entrepreneur, homeowner and business professional who is always eager to serve

loans. That experience has served him
well as a Real Estate Professional to better advise his clients of different
Real Estate loan products. As a result,
it gives his clients a maximum opportunity of home ownership. Derek has also
spent several years as an Insurance Agent operating his own Agency. Just as in lending, this experience has
allowed Derek to be a deep resource for his Real Estate clients when advising
them.
With almost
20 years as a Real Estate investor, Derek has experienced both the buying and
selling side as a consumer. On most of
these properties, Derek has made minor and major improvements himself, exposing
him to the many challenges of asset management.

inspections, appraisals, Real Estate contracts and rental agreements. This gives Derek a unique perspective to the
Real Estate industry and extensive experience on the process.
