Derek was very helpful in our search for a lake cabin that checked all of our boxes. Even though it took 2 years to find the right property he didn’t give up on us! Great service and knowledge of the lakes in the area! We definitely recommend Derek Kavanaugh with Wisconsin Special PropertiesPosted on Meg HouserTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Derek made our first Wisconsin home buying experience fun and simple, even though we lived out of state and had a LOT of questions, and the property had some truly unique challenges to hurdle! He was professional and personable from start to finish, and has completely exceeded my highest hopes for finding not only a realtor that I could trust, but someone who is truly invested in going the extra mile for the happiness and satisfaction of both buyers and sellers alike! He is honest and fair, and quickly proved himself to be a helpful and informative agent without the slightest hint of slimy salesman. We even shared a celebratory scoop of fine ice cream on closing day. I only wish I was in the market for buying more property right now, because I'd gladly give him my business again and again!Posted on Tony ZTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After using another realtor for many years to sell my property I decided to use Derek. In less than a year he was able to sell my property. He was quick to respond to any questions and very easy to deal with since this I do not live in Wisconsin. I would highly recommend Derek.Posted on scott coleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I looked at a waterfront property (3X) that Derek was selling. His knowledge of the area was extremely helpful. He responded to our many questions promptly and kept us up to date on the offers to purchase. The whole process went smoothly thanks to Derek. Your hard work was greatly appreciated!
