Happy First Home Buyers 😁

Working with Derek to purchase our first home was an absolute game-changer. Buying property can be overwhelming, we had no clue what we were doing or what to expect, but Derek made the entire journey seamless, transparent, and surprisingly stress-free. From our very first interaction, Derek was incredibly responsive, honest, and proactive about keeping us informed every step of the way. We never felt rushed or left in the dark, and his deep knowledge of the market gave us so much confidence during the negotiation process. If you are looking for an agent who is genuinely dedicated, professional, and a pleasure to deal with, I couldn't recommend Derek and the team at Z Realty Group more highly. Thank you for helping us secure our first home!

Professional, transparent & easy to work with

We were really happy with the result of selling our home with Derek, particularly selling after the very first open home! We actually met Derek at another open home and were impressed enough to organise an appraisal with him. From the beginning, he was easy going, transparent and involved us in the process. We always felt informed and comfortable with the decisions being made. Derek was approachable, professional and communicated well throughout the whole process. We’re really grateful for his efforts and would happily recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home!

Excellent Real Estate Agent.

Derek was an excellent real estate agent throughout the entire process. His communication was outstanding—he kept me consistently informed and up to date at every stage, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. He demonstrated a strong knowledge of the market and was always able to provide clear, helpful insights when needed. I truly appreciated his professionalism, responsiveness, and willingness to go the extra mile. I would have no hesitation in recommending Derek to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable real estate agent.

He is very patient, obliging and friendly.

When we decided to sell my Mum’s house and we needed an agent, it was a no brainer but to go with Dereck. He had previously sold my daughters house and was able to sell it for more that what she was expecting. From our first meeting to discuss the listing till the final settlement we found Dereck to be polite, professional and knowledgeable about all aspects concerning real estate market, and documentation. He always kept us informed and delivered yet again on his promise. Well done, Dereck.

Derek was genuinely great to work with. His communication was excellent throughout the entire process, always keeping me informed and answering any questions I had. What stood out the most was his honesty—he was upfront, transparent, and never tried to hide anything. I really appreciated his integrity and would highly recommend him to anyone.

WOW! A moon with Derek’s approach, his delivery, his execution and everything in between

JUST WOW! 5 years ago we bought our first family home from Derek BEFORE we had listed our home in Picton for SALE. Naturally we hired Derek to sell our Picton home, as from the very moment we met him, he just had this positive, calm & safe energy around him without any BS. We asked Derek to be our agent to sell Appin as we move on with our next chapter. It’s safe to say we are over moon with Derek’s approach, his delivery, his execution and everything in between

Absolutely outstanding

Right from the start we felt very comfortable with our decision to use Derek, His easy going personality and his knowledge of the current market confirmed to us that we had made the right choice. Derek's communication throughout the whole process was exemplary, from day one right up the the actual sale date. My Husbsnd and I would not hesitate to use Derek again.
