Derek was professional, friendly and an overall great experience!

Purchasing a property from Baston and Co and dealing with Derek was easy and professional. Derek made sure I knew what the process was, had great knowledge of the home and was efficient with paperwork and kept me up to date with everything. Derek made sure I was happy with the home and if anything needed to be fixed before settlement. Once the property settled it was quick and easy and a fantastic experience overall. Thank you Derek and Baston and Co!

Excellent service from both Derek and his office.

I had been keeping an eye on sales in the area for several years. I knew when it was time to sell that Derek was the best agent. He did not let me down. Property sold on first home open, over the asking price and multiple offers. I always like dealing with small companies and Derek as the salesman and Rickie as the admin contact made the sale very easy.

We couldn't have been happier with how our first property sale process went. From the first time I met Derek to undertake our valuation, I knew he would be the one tasked with selling our house. All of the team at Baston & Co were responsive, nothing was too much trouble and most of all we felt they genuinely cared. Our quick sale was a bonus and we appreciate the time Derek took with us to ensure we knew and understood the process. We highly recommend Baston & Co, a very professional team who are guns in the Vic Park area.

Derek and the Team and Baston & Co were fantastic and made the house selling process easy and stress free. Derek was professional, honest and engaging from the initial meeting, which was one of the reasons we selected Baston & Co. He provided great suggestions and feedback with regard to preparing for sale, which was indicative of his experience and expertise at selling homes in Victoria Park. The office based team were equally as experienced and professional with nothing to difficult for them to manage. Would absolutely recommend Baston & Co for both buying and selling property in Victoria Park.

Enthusiasm and Professionalism Plus!

From when we first met Derek we found him to be the ultimate professional with genuine passion and enthusiasm for the Vic Park lifestyle. Upon purchasing a property through Baston & Co, the experience with Derek and Joni was faultless from the first home open to final settlement. We would have no hesitation to recommend Derek to friends and family, and should the need arise in the future, there is no doubt we will enlist Derek's help for any real estate matters.

The Young Gun

We took a punt on the young gun from the hood in Vic Park to sell our house in Como, and it paid off with dividends. Derek and the team were both professional and highly informative, creating a sense of trust for all parties in the current Perth property market. If you are looking for an agent, give Derek a shot.

5 stars for us

Derek we couldn’t be more grateful to you and your team for the sale of our house. It had such sentimental value to us and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to guide us through the process. Not only that; we have such high respect for how you engaged with prospective buyers and kept us in the loop every step of the way. We’ll happily buy a house from you when we move back Vic park way and would sell with you again in a heartbeat. Thanks for everything!

Derek makes the challenging seem easy

Derek makes the challenging seem easy

Unfortunately we didn't start with Derek by the time we had reached him we were somewhat "agent weary". He had a very professional and pleasant manner. Was very clear from the get go what he could do for us. We are interstate and had many moving parts. He made the process as seamless as possible. Incredibly tough market conditions, some high expectations and tired sellers. Derek whipped us back in to shape and kept us informed as we worked our way thru the process. All is done and while it was not the outcome we had wished for he definately got us over the line in the best possible way. We have no hesitation in recommending Derek and his team. Faultless considerate informative and always available. We can see why he is the premier agent in the area.

Ecstatic! Sold 3 days after first open!

Ecstatic! Sold 3 days after first open!

Wow - one home open, multiple offers and my house sold 3 days later! It really doesn't get much better than that. Forget EOI, End Date Sale etc, price your home! The strategies used by Derek Baston ensured that our home attracted maximal attention via social media and database followers. All buyers knew the price expectations and given that Derek was a local agent with a fabulous track record, there was absolutely no doubting that he'd get the job done. Now to do it all again :)

Best Agent - wouldn't trust anyone else.

Best Agent - wouldn't trust anyone else.

Derek was an absolute dream to work with. Purchasing my first home with zero experience and knowledge was very nerve wrecking initially but he made me comfortable from the initial phone call enquiring about the property until the day he called to say I could go get my keys. He has a ridiculous amount of knowledge regarding his work and was so helpful sharing this information on. I trusted his word and opinions and hold him in high regard. I will happily recommend all my friends and family to see him as I honestly think he is the best at what he does.

Best experience EVER!

Thankyou so much to Derek and the team for their professionalism, efficiency and warmth during the entire process of purchasing my amazing new home. The team kept me informed at every step, returned all my 'urgent' phone calls immediately (which weren't so urgent!) and made the process smooth and effortless. The team was supportive of my individual needs. Thankyou Marianne
