My goal is to make the process of buying, selling, or owning a home efficient, enjoyable and rewarding for you.  See what my clients have said about my real estate services:

"We had our house on the market for over 2 years, going through three Realtors. We were extremely frustrated and exhausted. At that point, we had given Darren a call for an interview. We were pleased with what he had said, but were hoping he wasn't just telling us what we wanted to hear, like a lot of Realtors do. He delivered. He did everything he said he would do. Excellent communication. We dealt with him directly. He always made time for us. Not only did he sell our house, he also helped us buy our dream house. He is the real deal! We would not hesitate to use him again." Brett and Yaritza Brinker and family

"Darren assisted me recently in the purchase of my new home and sale of my previous home. I give Darren extremely high praise for his efforts in helping us. We ran into some of the most challenging and obscure problems on both ends of the process and Darren was always there to assist with his expert knowledge and resources. Multiple times Darren was going above and beyond my expectations of a real estate agent's typical duties to make sure everything got done when needed. Darren was available on a moments notice and kept us in constant communication as to our situation. There were several times my wife and I were ready to pull our hair out because of the complexity of our situation and Darren was always there with reassuring words, possible solutions, and advice. We sold our house quicker then expected and for a higher price than we anticipated getting in this tough housing market. I know there a lot of realtors out there, but if you are looking for one to go the extra mile for you and give you straightforward and honest input I would suggest Darren." Brandon Beck

"Darren did an outstanding job for me. He helped me to purchase a commercial building for my new Deli in New Haven. Darren was always punctual, attentive to detail, and always willing to go the extra mile to help me. As a Realtor I would highly recommend him to anyone."  Renee' Moore

“This recommendation is based upon two separate professional uses of his services to find homes. Darren is a very honest, trustworthy, respectful and knowledgeable professional. Darren values the time of his clients and ensures that your search does not yield unwanted or unnecessary results and is always willing to listen to the changing needs and desires of his clients. These factors are what lead us to re-use his services. I highly recommend Darren and his firm for your property search and acquisition.” Nicholas Shaw

"The most important concern for anyone looking to buy a new home is to find a really good realtor who not only knows what he/she is doing, but one that takes a personal interest in helping his/her clients.  Darren Schortgen is such a realtor.  Not only does Darren have the experience and the know-how, but he goes the extra mile to help you find just the right home, location, etc." Ron and Pam Reece

"Darren was my Realtor when I purchased a house. He is very thorough,
honest and helpful. I learned to trust him completely after getting to
know his character. I would confidently and with clear conscience
recommend him to anyone who is serious about purchasing a home." Mark Ellert

"My wife and I have been very satisfied with Darrens services.  He is a very personable person, very likeable and very helpful." - Arlie Hatch
