My wife and I have recently sold our home. DJ from NextHome Neighborhood Realty, was our realtor who was recommended to us via word of mouth. DJ was always professional, gave us the right amount of guidance and insight so that we had all the information needed to make the right decision(s). He kept us on the "straight and narrow" regarding selling our home , but was never pushy or intrusive and worked around our somewhat limited schedule. Our home sold in about a month and a half and was pretty uneventful, which is what you want - uneventful means less stress! I would recommend DJ French to anyone looking for a realtor.

DJ was a great help with helping my husband and I in finding a beautiful house. He was very informative, and always kept us updated with any news, or issues to do with the house. He was a great help with keeping on top of any issues, that needed to be fixed, etc. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help wanting to buy a house.

Darrell (DJ) was one of the best realtors I have worked with. He was easy to get a hold of and to talk through issues with. He was upfront and honest about the process, had great advice when we needed it and followed through with everything he said he would do with efficiency and thoroughness even under some less than ideal circumstances. We could not have asked for a better experience.

I loved working with DJ. You can always tell a business person's character and professionalism with how they handle the bumps and bruises that inevitably come with our business. He handled everything with grace and respectable sophistication. Our jobs are difficult; patience and pose means so much.

Kim and DJ were super helpful in helping buy and sell in a crazy market. They helped explain everything during the process which we really appreciated.

DJ was great to work with. He helped us buy and sell our homes. He was on top of everything and we received full price with multiple offer's. He even reminded us about our first mortgage payment coming up. Looking for an agent that isn't just about the sale but also about relationships then DJ French is the realtor for you.

My husband and I were searching for a first home, so you all know how stressful and daunting that can be. Agents blow up your phone left and right trying to give you the hard sell. Somewhere in the chaos, I stumbled upon DJ very early on in our search and we couldn't be happier we chose him! From the beginning, DJ was much more down to earth than any other agent I'd spoken to. What a relief! We ended up finding the perfect home almost immediately and thanks to his excellent negotiation, we got it for a fantastic price. I would recommend him to any first-time house hunters: he will be there to guide you though every step.
Thank you so much for everything, DJ! We will look you up again when we make our next move!

DJ made the process of selling my mother's home far easier than I ever imagined. He was very patient, helpful and understanding with me during this very difficult time. He walked me through everything and always kept me informed of anything that was going on no matter how big or how small the issue and I appreciated that so much!! I was given a weekly automatic update each Monday as well and that was very comforting. He was very accessible and let me know that if I had ANY questions or concerns to reach out to him at ANY time. At our closing - the buyers Realtor made a comment that I had a very good Realtor representing and handling our transaction and was a pleasure to work with - I couldn't agree more!! If I hear of anyone looking to buy or sell I will definitely give them DJ's contact information. I can't thank him enough for taking care of this for me!!

DJ was our realtor for buying our first home and selling it later down the road. We highly recommend him!!! He is professional, knowledgeable, honest, and someone we could call a friend. We will absolutely call DJ with any of our home buying and selling needs. If you or anyone you know in the Casselberry/Winter Springs is looking for a reliable realtor look no further than DJ French. He's the best!!!

I had a great experience working with DJ French and his team. He was on top of everything and we were ready to close almost a week before the scheduled closing. That made the process so pleasant. I would gladly refer him to other home buyers.

DJ and I worked together to coordinate and execute a roof replacement for one of his customers that was selling their home. The sellers were out of state during this process and the great communication between DJ, the seller and myself made the project happen with no problems and on time. The re roof project was contracted and completed in the small window of time we had to work with and the home was able to go to closing as planned. Thanks DJ for the Opportunity to work together and I look forward to teaming up for future projects with NextHome.

DJ,
I wanted to reach out and give you a big THANK YOU! It has been a pleasure working with you and NextHome, with not only the purchase of our new home but the sale of our other home. You have proven to be a superior realty expert. Shelly and I have nothing but praise and gratefulness for you and NextHome. We have bought and sold a few homes in the past 25 years but, I have to admit that the process this time has been nothing but pleasant. Thank you, very much. I will be recommending your expertise to everyone that I know. Shelly and I look forward to seeing you around town.

Dj did a great job selling my condo. I had another agent prior to DJ and he could not get it under contract. DJ had it sold and closed in less than 45 days. The transaction was smooth and he handled everything. I have since moved out of state but would use him again if the situation arises.

My wife originally found DJ online while searching for local agents with strong recommendations. After buying our first home with his help, it's clear why he earned them. He was there through every step of the process, helpful, friendly and always keeping us abreast of what paperwork needed to be done and when it needed to be submitted by. To any prospective first-timers, that last one is an enormous task in and of itself. If and when the time comes to move on from this place, there's no question who we'll be hiring. Thank you for all your help DJ!

Dj and his wife (Kim) did an excellent job on this transaction. My wife and I were looking at a totally different style property and they knew this would work for us. They handle the whole process beautifully and I would not work with anyone else in the future.

Working with DJ is like working with an Eagle Scout. He is honest, friendly, helpful, knowledgable and trustworthy. He felt like a part of my family! I have already referred friends and family to him for their home buying needs. I feel so blessed that I happened to meet him by chance, while looking at another property. He made everything easy - never a worry.

I so enjoyed working with DJ and his wife Kim. Being a seller from out of state, we needed to depend on them for everything during the transaction and they went above and beyond. I would highly recommend them.

DJ did a great job under a tight time frame. We entered into a contract to purchase new construction with a contingency on the sale of our existing home. Without his willingness to go more than the extra mile, neither sale would have occurred. I am happy to say that our house sold and we closed on our new home all within deadline! And it was all due to DJ and all the work he did behind the scenes to make it all happen.

DJ did an excellent job helping me and my wife sell our house. It was our first ever time selling a house, and we were worried that it would feel like chore to get it done. However, DJ guided us through the process with ease, and every step of the way ensured we understood what was happening while making it feel effortless. I would not hesitate to ask for DJ's for assistance for any real estate business I have in the future.
