I've just finished refinancing my home with Darrell, for the 2nd time in the span of a year...and Darrell was the one who got me into this home in the first place! We were working with a really tight schedule, too; I only had two months left on the condo I was leasing, so we had to work fast. I was doubtful at first, since I'd worked with two other realtors in the years past, to try to find a home to purchase. But nothing was ever right, and more importantly, I went nowhere on any of the homes that were even of any interest. Thankfully, a friend recommended Darrell and I went for it, and I'm so glad I did! We went out to look for homes a couple times before he narrowed down what I wanted, and we started putting offers in. My offer was accepted for the home I had my heart set on, and 6 weeks later, I moved in. I refinanced with Darrell a year after that, and now, 9 months later, I was able to refinance again so that I'm now looking at a 20-year mortgage instead of 30. :)

Darrell is a great broker to work with. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and has integrity. He made our purchase fun and our luxury home in Newport coast was a cash offer and Darrell was able to close the entire transaction in a 3 day period. Since then I have referred to him to 3 other clients.

I can’t say enough good things about working with Darrell Burns on personal real estate transactions. I have worked with Darrel since 2014 on a number of transactions, including buying and selling a condo and detached home in Orange County as well as refinancing two mortgages. Darrell’s professionalism and enthusiasm for his work are on display 24/7. As there are always challenges and obstacles with any transaction, Darrell zeroes in on them and dispatches them quickly and efficiently, and always with a smile. He also has a knack for identifying a client’s greatest concern and doing everything he can to mitigate it to always create win/win situations. I highly recommend Darrell.
