Here's what our buyers and sellers say...
Doug Birkey is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He is 100% trustworthy. I highly recommend Doug Birkey!
Doug was wonderful to work with and communicated with me steadily during the process. His knowledge and approach worked to generate the sale and I am thankful he was recommended to me. Doug was excellent at walking me through the process.
I was referred to Doug Birkey by a neighbor that had previously worked with him and was highly satisfied. I chose to stick with Doug after talking to him because he is a straight shooter. Doug listens and then applies the needs you have communicated to the research he provides. Dougs attention to detail and understanding attitude were extremely helpful throughout the process. He understood why we walked away from the properties we didnt like while not making us feel hurried or forced to settle on a property (he spent time focused on us and only us for the time we spent with him). He was always available, and extremely knowledgeable during all inspections. Doug was also extremely responsible, and professional with the handling of money ,and complete with his explanations and coverage regarding any type of agreement. His negotiating skills and recommendations were also help during the process and he served as a great "middle ground" between myself and the seller allowing us to reach common ground without pushing to hard on either side. Doug took the time to help us investigate what we wanted in a first home and allowed us to do our own research to find places we thought we may be interested in and then helped us to build a portfolio of knowledge which eventually led to sealing the deal on our first home. His experience and, ability to assist with personal inspections (when we walked through) was something I value. When you have a realtor that not only knows how to buy/sell/negotiate, but also has knowledge about home building,maintenance,etc this is a HUGE benefit to a buyer or seller.This knowledge avoids pitfalls/costs associated with inspections if blatant issues exist and go unseen by the potential buyer/seller. Overall his patience,professionalism, and clear/timely communications stood out throughout the transaction. I would without hesitation recommend him to a friend or family member.
Mr. Birkey was a local builder for many years, that knowledge makes him an extremely knowledgeable agent for selling home. His invaluable understanding of a homes construction, puts him in an elite class of agents. Mr. Birkey was the best agent we have ever worked with.
As first time home buyers, we wanted to ensure we had a knowledgable, helpful, and experienced agent. Some complications with my VA loan caused some delays, but Doug was extremely helpful throughout the process. He was patient, professional, provided timely responses to our many questions, and gave us a general peace of mind. We would highly recommend Doug to anyone!
As first time home buyers, Doug was wonderful asset to have on our side. His previous experience as a local home builder really gave insight into each house we viewed and what to look out for. He also explained the process very clearly and made everything easy to understand.
Being first time home buyers, this process was a little overwhelming at times, but Doug was such an asset in this process that really put our minds at ease. My wife and I are so happy with the home that we got and really don't think it would have been possible without Doug's guidance, knowledge of the area, and experience. We would recommend Doug to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Doug is very knowledgeable about the house picking process, he knows his it's and out's around the house. He gets back to you as soon as he is available. He is also very polite and professional, I would refer him to anyone.
