Proactive, professional and knowledgeable

I am delighted that I chose Derek and Matt as my agents. When I met them I felt they would be good to work with as they were open, honest, energetic and listened to my needs. They were also proactive, professional and knowledgeable from the get go. This was all backed up by other clients I spoke to, who were both current vendors and recent sellers. Derek and Matt have not disappointed. They make a great team and have willingly gone the extra mile to help make a good sale, with no task has phasing them. I would happily work with them again and thoroughly recommend them to anyone selling a property.

Unsurpassed local knowledge and a huge heart

If you are looking for a team with unsurpassed local knowledge and a huge heart to help you sell your house, then you need look no further than Derek von Sturmer and Matt Ryken at the Professionals, Pt Chevalier. From the outset of my initial contact with them through to the closing of the sale, they have been alongside encouraging me and enabling potential buyers to see the house potential. I couldn't have done it without them and I am delighted with the result. I unreservedly recommend them to you

Exceeded my expectations

Well old son thanks has to go to you and your team. I personally have to say you guys have exceeded my expectations with the sale of our family home. Without a doubt, The Professionals Pt. Chevalier, are just that, PROFESSIONAL. The best real estate company between here & Hawaii. That’s a fact Derek. A big thank you to Gina too, for letting Derek away from the family to do all the work required for us. Looking forward to the lunch / dinner date. You’ve made this family very happy.

Getting results, caring for clients and buyers

I’ve known Derek for 10 years now, I bought my first home from him and then he sold it for me 10 years later. Now he’s assisting me with my next purchase. Throughout the selling process Derek has given me his time and advice, suggesting renovation items that positively contributed to the great result we had at auction. I trust Derek and his team because they care for buyers and sellers alike. Successful real estate deals come down to people’s emotions as much as their wallet, Derek understands this and is skilled at navigating these situations.

Number One Sales Rep!!

Bless you Derek for staying calm, intuitive, listening and making the whole process so much less complicated than it could have been. There was never any pressure to go through with it at any stage and also your offer of help, looking over a purchase contract to ensure it was all correct. Your extent of knowledge is outstanding, I am so grateful I was recommended to you again. I have have bought and sold half a dozen homes, but this has to be the most complicated, and you did it with such ease and removed all the stress! Thankyou
