"In a city of brokers, Darren stands apart. He is on a different level, and his results show that. Deals these days are much more challenging, require a whole different set of skills than in prior markets, and Darren brings those skills in abundance to every transaction he works on. He is intense in his craft -- he doesn’t list properties, he markets them, brands them, creates a buzz about them that gets attention – real attention. And that is why his properties generate multiple bids when other similarly situated units languish. And that keen valuation instinct works amazingly for buyers as well, who need to be guided through the vast inventory in this city – and having Darren on their team is a huge advantage. As a transactional lawyer who is involved with 10 to 20 deals per week, I see the vast difference in capability among his brokerage peers and have doubt why clients choose to work with Darren. He is a true professional." - Jerry
