The real estate market can be fast moving and we really appreciated Howard’s hands-on and reassuring presence. His years of experience and connections paved the way for us.

Derk has been a Mountain View resident for over 20 years, having raised his family in Waverly Park. His experience and expertise have enabled Derk to attain the status of top producing agent in the local Alain Pinel office, as well as being among the elite agents in the United States. Derk’s philosophy of client service differs significantly from most top producing agents. He offers a hands-on, personal approach to the sale of a home. This extends from the preparation process through the close of escrow. Rather than handing a client off to a series of assistants, Derk manages every aspect of the sale including property prep, marketing, open houses, negotiation, and closing. This provides a seamless transaction from beginning to end. Alain Pinel Realtors’ partnership with Luxury Portfolio International ensures that in addition to local and national marketing, Derk’s clients benefit from extensive international exposure through a large network of brokerages throughout the world.
