I cant begin to express the words my wife and I have for working with Derek and everything he has done for our family. Appreciation and gratitude overwhelm us everyday, as we walk into our new home. From the moment we saw our 1st home to probably 15th or so….who knows lol. Derek was super professional, polite, knowledgable and courteous through the entire process. This was our very 1st home and as you would expect, we experienced practically every natural feeling that comes with looking for your first home. He assisted us, educated us and ensured all our questions were answered so we gained insight and clarity in our decision making process. If you’re looking for a new home, or even someone who truly has your best interest, then he and his team are the ones YOU need. Period.

Thank you again Derek! Our family is truly appreciate of you.

We just closed on our first home! Finding a good 2 family house in this market is crazy right now, but Derek worked with our busy schedules to see them. He was very patient and kept us positive through this whole process. I would definitely recommend him and his company to friends and family because he was very knowledgeable, personable, and professional all throughout. They really stand by their company motto that says, "Humans Over Houses" because you can tell that they value their clients and their needs/situation over just making a sale unlike those sharks out there! He's also a great negotiator, which is why we got the house that we really love! We are forever grateful for all that he has done for our family. Thank you!

Was just recently graced to have bought our first home and we couldn't have done it without Derek Lizo. We came into the world of house shopping limited with knowledge and understanding of the processes. And just about the only thing that wasn't lacking was uncertainty. However thanks to Derek's expertise and guidance, we were able to find the right home for us. Derek was with us throughout the whole process from square one. Advising and navigating us to getting a home of great value while having only the best intentions for us. We thank Derek for all of his help and hope you share a similar success with Derek as well.

Derek was recommended by our neighbor. He came to the house and explain the process of selling our house. Derek was the one that took care /oversee any issues in the house. (by that time, we already moved to another State.) He acted as our eyes and ears, kept us updated of every little changes either by phone, text or email. Derek will also reply to any of your concern or questions. I felt comfortable and assure that the house will be taken care of since we are not there and waiting for a buyer. He found us a buyer and the transition was smooth and done in a timely manner. I will recommend Derek and his Team.

Absolutely wonderful in helping my family sell our beloved home quickly and efficiently after a family member passed and we realized we needed to move on and close that chapter of our lives. He was patient, understanding, and professional the entire time. Highly recommended!

Derek and his Team/Family at Next Home Platinum Elite made our home purchase as streamlined and easy to understand as possible.  As cliché as it sounds, they immediately treated us like family versus just another client always looking out for our best interests and ensured that our real estate journey was not to just find our next house but in fact our “NextHome”.
 
They are pretty much a boutique firm with all the knowledge, expertise, and experience along with access to an expansive network of professionals in the real estate industry from mortgage brokers and lawyers to finance/tax experts and lenders that rivals any of the major firms in real estate industry.
 
His team provided us with white glove service from the start going above and beyond any of our expectations making it as transparent and attentive as possible.  Whether it be scheduling back-to-back-to-back house viewings that catered to our own busy schedule, to jumping on a call or meeting in person to ensure we understood the process from legal terminology and/or real estate protocol to closing contracts verbiage and financial terms and conditions.
 
We can confidently, honestly, and highly recommend Derek and his team to any client, family or group looking to potentially purchase their next real estate investment, project or “NextHome”!

We just sold our home in NextHome and had the pleasure to work with Derek LIZO. He made what could have been a stressful and difficult process as seamless as could be. Derek really listened, cares passionately about his job and his calming manner worked wonders for us. I can’t speak highly enough of DEREK as our real estate agent. HIS professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity and hard work ethics are very much appreciated and respected. I would highly recommend him to whoever is looking to buy or sell a home in NextHome.

I cannot express my gratitude enough for Derek Lizo. His professionalism is far from being appreciated. He went above and beyond to find our forever home the second time around as a homeowner. He was there from the beginning, in between, and at the very end. He knows the in and outs of the market; he gave us confidence & comfort to make sure we will be fully settled in our new home. I strongly and highly recommend Derek for your next home purchase.

Working with Derek Lizo was a pleasure from start to finish. I decided to sell my property this year. From the first day Derek was efficient, professional and most of all courteous. He really knows the market in Jersey City and the surrounding vicinity. We were able to get the asking price.

It was an amazing time to work with Derek and office utilizing their expertise. The whole process of buying and selling is emotional, long and complex. He was able to walk us through the many steps on both sides of the transactions from the first step to the very last one. There were some challenging moments during the process but they were able to work with us and get over them and kept us calm along the way. His service is second to none when it comes to real estates sales and buying. We couldn't have done it without them.
