Looking for an agent to market your property? Selling is stressful and I remember that. Ours is a partnership and good communication between seller and agent is vital.

I represent potential buyers of local real estate as a Buyer Agent. I am paid by the sellers at closing so there is no extra cost.

He is a such a great mix of personable, professional, and down-to-earth, which makes the searching process feel fun and un-rushed. But when you're ready to commit...he gets the job done.

Nick has an excellent team behind him, and thanks to their guidance, insight, and support, we now live in our dream home!

Super responsive and accommodating with the challenges of an out of state purchase, repair estimates, etc. Nick's assistant Renée is amazing and so detail-oriented. They are a dream team!

Bushes are growing out of the gutters, the house sits on a dead-end road, and if the electricity goes out there wasn't a candle or match in the entire house. The fireplace didn't work.

Communication is a big deal to me, and I was updated immediately on every move made with the listing, showings, selling and closing of my house. I also appreciated the selling/preparation advice given to me by Charles, at our initial meeting of the minds. Charles and his staff covered everything for me from A to Z, which was a huge help to me since I travel and work out-of-state most of the time. I couldn't have had a smoother process...and it only lasted 6 months to the day! Mission Accomplished! Would I recommend Burgess-Pittman & Co? ABSOLUTELY-WITHOUT A DOUBT!

After finding out we were…read morepregnant with our first child, this expedited our timeline and we needed a reliable realtor we could trust. We soon realized we made the right decision partnering with Darrell; from our first consultation, it was clear he was attention-oriented and detailed in his process. Darrell's advice was comprehensive with no stone left unturned, and we were able to get our house staged and sold within 1.5 months. We then decided to continue our partnership into the buying process, and Darrell continued to go above and beyond through his dedication to closing the deal on our dream home, and by proactively providing us with all the information we needed to make an informed buying decision and finalize the transaction as smoothly as possible. We are so happy to have moved into our new home within 4 months which leaves us with plenty of time to prepare for our new family. With that, I highly recommend Darrell for your real estate endeavors.

As an out-of-state buyer, I relied heavily on his expertise, and he exceeded all expectations. Over the course of a more than a year-long search, he showed me at least 30 properties and went above and beyond by creating detailed video tours of homes when I couldn't be there in person. His deep knowledge of both the local market and construction was invaluable. His extensive experience allowed him to offer expert insights on remodeling options and property improvements that went far beyond what typical realtors could provide. When I finally found the right house, he managed every detail of the purchase process with remarkable attention and professionalism. He often rearranged his schedule to accommodate my last minute viewing requests, and never showed frustration when I was indecisive or picky. He was always calm, kind and focused in stressful situations. His stellar negotiation skills repeatedly led to exactly the outcome I was hoping for. I wholeheartedly recommend Darrell and feel so incredibly lucky that I found him to be my realtor.
