Good Genuine Agent

Good Genuine Agent

Derek is genuine. A lot of agents out there give off an untrustworthy "salesman shark" type persona yet Derek is the complete opposite. He was upfront and honest and put in the extra effort to assist with the transaction even briefly acting as proxy settlement agent for the seller while they were still getting their sh** together. His administrator Rickie also kept us well informed throughout the sales process. Especially since it was my first home and settlement experience. Derek is a local to Victoria Park so he lives and breathes the area and is full of knowledge, support, and recommendations of the local businesses. A good local bloke running a genuine local family agency.

Derek was a pleasure to work with on the purchase of our new home. He was professional, knowledgeable and excited about the property and getting us into it. There was plenty of communication and guidance on the process.

Could Not Fault

We appreciated Derek’s down to earth realism regarding the market, and his enthusiasm regarding the marketing and selling of our property. Selling on the cusp of the pandemic increased our anxiety and Rickie was both supportive and helpful in getting us through. Strongly recommend Baston & Co.

Derek is an enthusiastic professional who possesses a thorough knowledge of the Perth real estate scene. Together with his professional team, he understands the power of social media and skilfully utilises online resources. Derek is genuinely interested in the best interests of his clients with great interpersonal skills. The level of trust and rapport established from the first meeting was very reassuring and continued throughout, culminating in a successful sale.

Professional and a pleasure to deal with

Derek and Lee have found a way to Build a business that make the otherwise stressful experience of buying and selling pleasurable. Derek is clear, concise, professional and his positivity is contagious to both buyers and sellers. He takes the time to listen and suggest but will always follow your instruction. He is supported by a professional team of staff including Rickie who was quick to answer questions and arrange what needs doing. They know what needs doing and they do it very well. Consider them for your next purchase or sale as you won’t regret it.

Great Experience

This is the second home sold through Baston & Co's in which Derek has become the face we have trusted with our dealings. This experience rates as high as the first, with the whole team striving for client satisfaction. Selling properties within this uncharted market has been a challenge but Baston & Co have delivered again. Thanks to everyone for this great outcome.

Straight shooter!

Straight shooter!

We had nothing but a positive experience dealing with Derek. It took us a good stretch of time to find our forever home in which time Derek got to know us and our preferences. He was able to find the perfect place for us before it hit the market! Derek was a straight shooter. He answered our questions quickly and in a forthright manner. If he didn't know, he found out quickly. There was no hard sell, which would have been tempting in this uncertain market; no unrealistic scenarios to shoe horn us into something that wasn't the right fit. Derek belongs to this community and it shows in his approach to his work. Baston & Co is highly recommended.
