What Our Clients Have To Say

Thank you for being the absolute best real estate agent that either Lesley or I have ever worked with! Your thoroughness, thoughtfulness, and forethought are invaluable assets. We have already recommended you to Lesley’s sister and will continue recommending you to others as well.

Today Doug Parks assisted me with the viewing of 3 beach front/waterfront properties in SW Florida. A year and a half ago Doug helped us find a wonderful spot with a million-dollar view! We may be purchasing another property and Doug is a great agent with respect and knowledge for his clients. Once he knows your needs, he will do his best to locate properties for you to view! We have kept in touch and he does not hesitate to send me listings or set up showings! Thank you Doug!

Doug worked with us the last several months to find just the right property for us to purchase. He was always respectful and attentive of our wants and needs and was able to put together the best deal for us. Doug was also generous with his time and knowledge. He put forth the effort and hard work to keep us informed and up-to-date during the buying process. Thanks again for helping us find our vacation home.

I wanted to let you know how delighted I am with the service you had given me on my recent home purchase. You are everything a perspective home buyer (or seller) would want in a realtor. You worked with me for over a year trying to locate the home I wanted. You were very patient with my changing of parameters of price, location, etc. Your kind and helpful manner, punctuality, hard work and very responsive approach was excellent. One thing that is very important to me is follow-up action. You did an outstanding job in that category as well. I have dealt with almost two dozen realtors over the years in purchasing and selling homes and I want you to know, you are the best!!!! I am sure there will be additional home purchases in the future and you can be sure you will be my realtor!!! Thank you again for your outstanding service.

"Our daughter had moved to the Ft Myers area 3 years ago, we decided it was time to find a place of our own to enjoy but had no clue on what communities would be best for us, then we found Doug. He listened to our needs, wants, hopes and must haves. He located places, sent emails with details and pictures (as we are in NY) based on our discussions and budget. He made himself available around our schedule of flying into town to show us anything we were interested in. Doug is very personable, reliable and always led us in the right direction. We found our future 'home' in no time, Doug walked us through the details of the contract every step of the way, and because that was when COVID-19 first happened, there were a lot of changes going on that he helped us understand. We closed on our new 'home' the week of Thanksgiving, again thanks to Doug doing a virtual walk through with us! We LOVE our new place and all its amenities. We are enjoying semi-retirement so far and could not have done it without him! We'll forever be grateful for finding the perfect real estate agent to find us the perfect 2nd home, our dream has come true!"

Doug is one of the kindest and professional individuals that I have had the pleasure to work with during my home buying experience. Doug is a true gentleman and will go out of his way to make sure that you are happy and secure with your search and the purchase of your home. I could not be more pleased with the result. Doug helped me locate my dream retirement home!

We wanted to purchase a home in Florida and had no clue where we wanted to purchase our home. Additionally, to make things more complicated, we live in California and we were unable to visit Florida to look for homes. Doug is the utmost professional and gentleman. He listens to what is important to you and guides you through the process. He went above and beyond in every way to help us find the perfect home. He was our eyes and ears as he visited properties, giving us honest and thoughtful pros and cons of each property. This was invaluable in helping us make decisions about the area and the properties. Once we made an offer, he literally held our hand through the process and made us feel completely taken care of in every way. Doug communicates through every step and is always available for questions or concerns. Thank you Doug for helping us find our dream home in Florida. We literally could not have done this without your expertise.

It is with the utmost respect and gratitude that we recommend Doug Parks for any of your real estate needs. We cannot express enough about Doug’s work ethic, his character and overall, his genuine personality. He is a great person! Last year in 2019 we started the online search in Florida looking for a home to purchase for our retirement. We connected with Doug through some of his listings and we were really impressed with how he communicated with us. We gave him our wish list and Doug only sent us information on homes that met with our check list. We lined up some viewings for January 2020 and we travelled to Fort Myers for a week of house shopping. Doug spent time with us about the areas we were interested in and areas he felt would be best suited to what we were looking for. We looked at a few homes that we had picked and asked Doug to line up for us, then Doug took us to a condo that he felt was something we would like. He was 100% right. Upon walking into the condo, we knew it was what we wanted. We put an offer in and we successfully purchased our retirement home. Doug was exceptionally good at listening to our wish list and respecting our timeline, he was courteous and attentive to our needs, helping us along the way with whatever was needed. Doug cares and his attention to detail shows. We are grateful that we connected with him and we look forward to recommending his services to any family and friends of ours that are looking for their retirement home in Florida.

Selling our condo with Doug Parks and Cornerstone Realty was an exceptional experience. It was sold in less than 24 hours!!! The sale process was effortless and the documents were completed accurately and in a timely manner. Doug provided us with an outstanding photographer that showcased our home in a very professional manner. Doug assisted us in the pricing of our home. It sold for the asking price!!!! We have sold over 20 homes and have found Doug Parks to be an outstanding Realtor who has met our every need. We will certainly use Doug in our next real estate transaction.

It is our immense pleasure to recommend Doug Parks as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home for their unique situation. We had decided to relocate from Tennessee to Florida and wanted to downsize our home as a retired couple, while still maintaining space for family visits and my tools and my wife’s Knick Knack collection. Doug had an initial meeting with us and took diligent notes regarding our specific needs in a single-family home and the type of community we wanted as well as our budgetary limitations. He demonstrated his technical competence and made excellent use of the relevant search engines and real estate databases to quickly find us a variety of homes for sale. He did not waste our time with homes that were out of our price range or not in line with our needs. Doug demonstrated his skills and experience in contract negotiations and came up with a deal that was good for us and made the seller happy as well. We found Doug to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were his only customers, although we know that was not the case. He returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. He is also highly personable with an engaging personality. We are pleased to recommend Doug Parks to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. He is hands down the best in the business in our opinion and if we ever need to move again, he will be our first choice in real estate agents.
