Derek had the patience of Jobe! He's lived in the area his entire life and that knowledge is invaluable. Although my attention and path swayed he kept steady at the helm, never any pressure. I might never have completed my move south without him?! You won't find a better man for the job!!!

From the very first conversation, Derek was openly communicative and professional. He promptly answered any and all questions and concerns I had and made the process of selling from out of state incredibly smooth. He went above and beyond for me in coordinating getting all the logistics handled since I was half way across the country. He was friendly and pleasant to work with and managed to keep my stress very minimal.

Derek answered all of my questions at any time and was accessible by phone, text, and email. He was knowledgeable about the area because he grew up there. He even set up the closing while he was on vacation. He provided a great service!

Derek was amazing to work with. We were first-time home buyers and he was able to help us with all the ins and outs of buying. He was very helpful in negotiations, was well aware of local comps, and went to bat for us multiple times during the process. We recommend Derek to anyone looking for a great realtor.

Derek had been helping us find the right condo for over a year before negotiating with a challenging seller. He was patient, understanding, extremely professional, courteous, and accessible whenever we needed his advice and assistance pursuing our final purchase. We found our "dream" condo only with his help and expertise

Super nice and very helpful as issues came up.

Derek was a great help in the purchase of our new home. He responded quickly to any of our questions, helped to negotiate the price point we were looking for and even helped to secure quotes for a fence in the back yard while we were out of town for 10 days.

Derek was a true pleasure to work with. His knowledge of the local market was beyond our expectations and his ability to match our needs with the right property was superb. Highly recommended!

Derek Fairfax was professional and stellar!! Would highly recommend him to friends for a property purchase. He was excellent in his work in our property transaction!

Derek is a consummate professional. He communicates well, has extensive knowledge of the market, and was very trustworthy. He is an expert negotiator. We were very pleased with our experience working with Derek.

Working with Derek Fairfax was one of the best experiences we could have possibly had. It was an absolute joy to have worked with him. Derek is extremely knowledgeable and a highly professional person who was at the same time very personable in his approach. He was very courteous, kind, considerate and very patient. We never felt rushed and he always acted like he had all the time in the world for us and our search. Anytime we reached out to him, he always responded in a timely manner making us feel like we were his only client. I found his advice and input to be very helpful as he brought great incite with his many years of experience. He was very honest and conducted himself as a man of high integrity. We never felt pressured in any way. He went above and beyond in every way and exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend him and would not hesitate to call him in the future if the need arises. Working with Derek Fairfax was wonderful!!

Derek is by far the best choice I could have made. I was nervous about purchasing a water front condo as 10-31 investment property.Derek was a wealth of knowledge and expertise which helped desmistify the process.I will turn to Derek every time and will be back.I highly recommend him to help you too.Thank you Derek!

Derek was very helpful and very accessible during our search for our condo. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a property in the area.

We really appreciate all of Derek's hard work. He was very responsive and I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for a new home in the area. He was great.

Very professional agent Would like to do business with Derek again as a buyer when the market turns. Excellent experience. A true professional experience.

We have known Derek for several years and done business together often over the years. Derek is local, knowledgeable, punctual, professional, quick to respond, and his extensive knowledge of the real estate market made for a seamless transaction for us, as well as our buyers. His knowledge of HOA procedures and requirements are what made this transaction exceptional, as we were dealing with an extremely unreasonable and unreachable HOA that is located out of state. Derek went above and beyond to adjust our sales approach to the right target market so that we were able to work around their ridiculous requirements for sale and acquisition. Derek made this process so easy and this will not be the last time we use him to represent our properties. THANK YOU DEREK for your hard work to get our property sold so quickly and efficiently.

I am so fortunate to have had Derek as my broker. He was knowledgeable, timely, accommodating, kind and overall just a great guy. Century 21 is fortunate to have someone like Derek representing the agency. I have no doubt that he will go far in his career. Thanks Derek for a job well done. I will highly recommend him.

Derek Fairfaxwas very helpful in all aspects. He sold another property for us and did a wonderful job as well. We couldn't have had better service.

Derek Fairfax is a trustworthy Realtor that does what he says and is always on time! I strongly recommend you contact Derek Fairfax at Century 21 Thomas to make your house dreams come true!

Derek worked hard to find our condo and was very responsive to our needs. He understood what we wanted and helped find the perfect fit. As we are from Pennsylvania, Derek became our eyes and knew what to look for when looking at homes. We will be recommending Derek Fairfax to our family and friends and if we need future representation we will not hesitate to call on Derek!

Very helpful and knowledgeable. We told Derek what we were looking for and he found it. I would highly recommend him to my family and friends and I will call on Derek again. Very satisfied Very satisfied with Derek Awesome and highly recommend Century 21 Thomas

Derek sold a previous property for us and his professionalism, personality, honesty and caring nature is 2nd to none. I would deal with him in the future and no one else.

While talking with Derek it became obvious he is very familiar with the real estate market in Horry County, and was also informative to parts of the search and purchase process where we have had less experience. Since we were conducting our search from another in the "hot" market conditions, we needed him to be highly communicative and ready to dedicates significant time to us when we physically were able to be in the Myrtle Beach area, and he came through every time! Although the market made the process somewhat frustrating since homes were selling so fast, he kept at it with us, and connected us with the other services and information necessary to close on our home. We highly recommend Derek to be your Realtor!

Derek worked all hours trying to help us get a condo at Myrtle Beach at a price point that we wanted.

Derek is the best!!!!!!!!!!!! From our first discussion to closing he was excellent and I highly recommend.

I was very impressed with Derek Fairfax . He always kept me up to date on everything that was going on.He answered any and all questions that I had promptly.This was the easiest sale that I have ever made. Never thought that it could be this simple. Derek helped make it that way. He did everything that he could to accommodate us time wise and travel wise. We have a business that we have to be at everyday so this helped us alot.

We have worked with Derek Fairfax on several transactions and could not be more pleased. Derek’s understanding of our needs and his local area knowledge was especially helpful in both the buying and selling process. Derek will exceed your expectations with his honesty and integrity. SG

I could not have been happier with Derek Fairfax. He was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive and professional. I would recommend him to anyone looking for Real Estate services. Excellent agent!

Honest, patient, prompt, knowledgeable and kind. Since we have owned our own business for 43 years we can read people very well. Derek is the real deal, always concerned about what is right for us. We first met Derek in 2018 when we were looking for a condo in the North Myrtle Beach area. He went way out of his way to make sure we bought the right condo for us even though it was not the most expensive one that he showed us. When we were home in Pa and saw a place we might like he went to the condo and skyped with us. We bought that condo and since last fall have been looking for a house. We aren't the easiest buyers but Derek was only professional and polite when we would not have blamed him for losing his patience. Derek's goal is always to find you the right place for you and he manages the seller's agent with the same patience and knowledge that he shows us, always doing what is best for us.

He is always prompt and curtious. He answers calls, txt, emails almost immediately. He is willing to assist in any way that he can. He will find out the answers to any and every question. He is meticulious. Very detailed in the photographs of the listing. Very motivating description of the property. I listed the home at the beginning of the corona-virus outbreak. I was expecting a long-haul during these difficult times. Derek had a contract on my home in 5 hours and a closing in 7 days! Service just doesn't get any better! Derek is a fantastic Real Estate Agent!!!

I would like to provide a personal endorsement for Derek Fairfax and recommend him to anyone looking for homes or property in South Eastern North Carolina and North Eastern South Carolina. Derek is a kind and thoughtful professional, he always provided carefully thought out answers to our questions, researched when needed and gave us sound advice about market values and the suitability of land for retirement and planned activities. He kept us patient when we were getting impatient and now we are the very happy owners of a property on a quiet rural street, close to the beaches and close to good friends of ours who are also retiring to the area. Derek eagerly did more work then his commission was worth: He walked across many rural properties with me, went home late, went home dirty, made all the arrangements for and oversaw the county perc test and always looked out for my wife and my best interest. For a great home and property buying experience call Derek Fairfax.

Derek Fairfax has helped me with 3 Real Estate transactions in the past two years. He responds to calls and txt messages immediately. He will get an answer to absolutely any question. He is helpful in any way that he can assist. I listed my home for sale at the beginning of the corona-virus outbreak. I was afraid it would be a long-haul trying to sell a home at this time. He was so very careful when he took each professional photo for the listing. Very detailed about the home in the description. My home had a contract in 5 hours! And a closing in 7 days! He is absolutely a fantastic realtor!

I feel lucky to have found Derek. I initially spoke with Derek regarding a property I had found online, and he was very knowledgeable of the property and the area, and was able to advise of potential pitfalls and legal issues with the property. Following that initial discussion, with Derek's help, I was able to find a number of other properties in the area meeting my criteria, and he arranged for prompt showings and obtained detailed information for me to make a good decision for me, offering insight on the area and rentals. When I found the property I was looking for, he walked me through the offer process, and took care of everything, while also giving good advice and advocating and negotiating to ensure the best deal. Throughout the escrow process he made all the necessary arrangements for inspections and vendors, coordinated with my lender and attorneys and the seller, all while keeping me informed, getting my input, and periodically checking in to make sure everything was going well and to see if I had any questions. I really appreciated Derek's help and input, and willingness to go the extra mile throughout the process. I'm not sure what I would have done without him. Always professional and polite, and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend working with Derek, and I look forward to working with him on future transactions.

He is always willing to go above and beyond. He responds quickly, he is willing to show me any and every home that I would like to see.He responds to ant questions, concerns, issues, with a timely and quick response. He has shown me many homes (50+) over a 2 year period. He always makes time for me even when it is peak seasons. He also is willing to go to homes in both SC and NC.He stopped by about 2 weeks after the sale to see how my progress was coming. He also offered his assistance if I needed help with anything.He follows through on every detail. He answers every question that I might have in a very timely manner. He makes all the necessary contacts to make sure that everything is complete.Ladies at the front desk are always polite and helpful. They also seem trustworthy.

When we decided it was time to downsize, Derek helped us sell our house and buy a condo. He was patient with our numerous questions throughout the process. We appreciated his down to earth approach and respectful attitude. He got us a fair price as both sellers and buyers and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a hard working, knowledgeable agent!

We was first time home buyers and Derek made the process easy and he answered every question we had. He listed to everything we was looking for to help find the right home. Derek took that info and found us the perfect dream home we was looking for.

My experience with Derek was amazing. His professionalism and knowledge turned a hectic and unconventional real estate journey into a positive experience. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

One of a kind realtor as we have bought and sold many properties in Pa. Derek could not have been more patient in a sale that took 3 months of negotiations.

We have alaready begun telling our friends who are looking to buy to contact him and we will continue. He was awesome!!!!He is one of the bests, if not THE best!!!
