Buy A Home

My husband and I worked with Graham Doody to buy our first home together this past November/December 2024. Right off the bat Graham was great at working with our complicated shift work schedules and never missed a beat accommodating the strange availability we had, typically later at night than most normal people. My husband and I had recently moved to the Calgary area from BC and Graham was very helpful in giving us insight into some of the differences in the Alberta market that we didn’t know about. I found his insights on properties to be very helpful and things we would not have thought of on our own or through our own research. When it came down to getting the deal done on a multiple offer situation Graham was able to win us the house by being readily available and negotiating well for us. We moved into our home in January and have been loving it so far. One thing both my husband and I remarked on was how we almost wished we spent more time looking for a home as catching up with Graham is something we enjoyed a lot and it was a fun few months 🙂

We had a most wonderfully stellar experience working with Derek Timmons and his amazing “dream team” of experts. We came from out of province to settle our family estate. Derek’s team were first responders to our request. A top-rate professional team I highly recommend you connect with to handle your real estate needs. You will NOT be disappointed. Always kind, courteous, and understanding. Closing an estate is not an easy task, especially when you live out of province. The Maverick Group excelled in making the whole process easy. From the bottom of our hearts, we THANK YOU, Maverick Group! We are forever grateful to your kindness and assistance during a very sad time for our family. Bless you, Derek Timmons and Team!

Working with Derek was an absolute pleasure! From start to finish, he was always on top of every detail, ensuring a smooth and stress-free process. His communication was clear, prompt, and professional, making sure I was informed and confident at every step. What stood out the most was his dedication to my best interests—he truly went above and beyond to find the perfect home for me. If you’re looking for a realtor who is proactive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about his clients, I highly recommend Derek and team!

Graham was an absolute pleasure to work with. He really understood what I was looking for, and helped me a lot through the process of finding my first home. You can tell he really cares about his clients, is super patient, and very reliable. He also helped me connect with a lot of people involved in the process both before and after the sale, which really shows his dedication to his clients!! Would recommend!

Graham worked with my wife and I to buy our first home in December 2024. Graham was amazing and worked extremely hard to find us what we needed. In short: He was friendly and easy-going, being able to relax us and quiet our anxiety about the decision. He was hard working and tenacious, driving throughout the city at all hours and fighting hard during negotiations. And he was respectful and knowledgable, communicating well with both of us and sharing his experience and knowledge. More detail: What I appreciated the most about Graham was his openness about his own life and experiences. He spoke to us about his family life over the years and shared some of his wisdom with us that helped us with our decision. This quieted some of our anxiety and indecisiveness as we tried to envision our future. I also appreciated Graham’s quiet tenacity, which showed in his work ethic and when it came to negotiations. Graham was always available by phone and worked with us and our terrible work schedules to do viewings at all hours. Graham is polite and nice but don’t let that fool you, he will fight hard for his clients to get a great deal. We wanted to know we were getting the best we could and Graham showed us that we had a strong person in our corner. And finally I appreciated the way Graham treated myself and my wife with great respect. My wife is the true leader in our household, and we needed a realtor who would understand that and treat her with the respect she deserves. Graham listened and answered all of my wife’s questions, and began pointing out more things for her to consider that he knew would be important to her. His expertise and respect really made the experience a good one for us. Ultimately, my wife and I recommend Graham to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. His calm and charming personality, his work ethic and tenacity, and his respect and expertise is everything you’ll need for success. We had a great time! We’re very happy with the outcome! Thanks Graham, you’re always welcome at our home!

Working with Derek and his team was amazing! My wife and I live out of province and Derek helped facilitate with tasks above and beyond just listing our property. I’d definitely use Derek again and would recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor who really cares about making the home buying selling experience amazing!

We were referred to Derek Timmons by our friend to buy a new home while we were deciding to relocate to Calgary. He was so accommodating as being new in town we didn’t have a car and clue where we were. He gave us a short tour around Calgary and introduced to different neighborhoods and his advice as we wanted to be closer to our family! He was patient to our requests and wish list and yet sharing his experiences and wide knowledge of the real estate. And as a result, we found a brand new home and we are so happy with the whole process as Derek and his team made it for us as much smooth as they could! We had very little to worry about being outside of the province! Thank you, Derek and your team! Much appreciated for everything! Joe & Nurgul

It was not the most beautiful house in the area, but we loved it and it was time to sell. We engaged Derek after 3 or 4 weeks of working on our own to sell it. Derek tuned in to our situation immediately and with his knowledge and experience confidently went work selling our house – I was impressed. Derek went above and beyond expectations and saw it (including us) through to the sold sign at the end. I highly recommend Derek’s service – 100%

Derek and his team are a committed, professional and fun loving group. I am always amazed by their work ethic and attention to detail. Their clients real estate goals are always priority # 1. When I think of AIRDRIE , Alberta there is only one name and group I would consider referring.

Very hard working, knowledgable and honest. The whole team has your back every step of the way. Highly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things about Graham! He really went above and beyond and we feel lucky that we found him. From the start, Graham was super patient and he helped us find our perfect home within our budget. His friendly and understanding approach made the whole process so much easier and way less stressful. We’re so happy with our new home, and we owe a huge thanks to Graham for making it happen. If you’re looking for an excellent realtor, we highly recommend him!

Derek is amazing to work with. He is extremely knowledgeable within the real estate space, always available to help and provides you with honest advice and perspectives. Highly recommend!

We can’t say enough good things about Graham! They went above and beyond in helping our family find our forever home. Graham was not only incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated but also made the entire experience enjoyable with their warm and positive attitude. They were always available to us, even after my work hours, which meant so much given my late schedule. It was clear from the beginning that Graham was fully committed to making sure we found exactly what we were looking for, and they guided us through every step with patience and expertise. We are beyond grateful and would highly recommend Graham to anyone looking to find their perfect home!

We went to Calgary for a vacation and exploration in June, and 3 months late, we became a proud homeowner in the city. All of this could happen because of one person, Graham Doody, whom we met by absolute chance at an open house during our visit. Graham took great efforts to understand our needs & plan, and moreover, painstakingly searched, visited and video-recorded various properties for us, and finally found the home that fits us perfectly. A big THANK YOU to you Graham for your help! Your professionalism impressed us greatly. Graham is highly recommended! XN & CZ

We had the best experience working with Derek and his team while searching for our new home just outside of Airdrie. We met Derek by chance and are extremely grateful we did. He was kind, caring and extremely patient with us on this journey. He was very knowledgeable and honest while looking at houses, never felt pressured or discouraged when walking away from a house – which we did more than once. After purchasing our home we not only felt like we had the best realtor experience but also a new friend. Tom & Jacquie

Derek is a very professional experienced Real Estate Agent who is dedicated to local Airdrie and Calgary vicinity municipalities. We started the selling consulation process for more than 18 months ago and just close the deal on this August 2024. He not only can provide comprehensive local market background and information but more imporantly is able to deligently listen to the client’s perspectives, goals and concern during any real estate transactions. Working together as a team took him extra time yet achieved for more than $50k asset appreciation within one year in the market for his client. During the listing and selling process, he is also able to work around our existing tenants and finally make the deal done seamlessly. Therefore, Derek is highly recommended to any potential buyers from me!

Graham and the team at Maverick have been an absolute asset in helping is both sell our home and helping us secure our forever home. Not only has Graham been incredibly professional, but the whole experience with Maverick has been incredible. Melissa has been a rockstar in helping handle some of the details, and the team helped us sell our home promptly and for asking. Graham even has had to have some tough conversations with us about some of the realities we were facing, which may have been hard at the time BUT resulted in not only getting a better price for our home, but also putting us in a position to capture our dream home as a result instead of settling for something we liked but didn’t love. Can’t recommend Graham and the maverick team enough. If we are ever in the position to sell again, Graham will be the first call.

I found Derek’s team extremely professional. For me communication is key when you are selling and buying any property. Maverick Group, Airdrie REALTORS have strong robust communication system. Thank you so much Melissa and Derek. I strongly recommend them.

Where do I start?. You ever sell your house without even meeting the agent and his team that sells for you? Well Derek is your man. This agent was incredibly professional, knowledgeable and on point. I sold a property with him while living in another province, never met him or his team but he was incredibly responsive and there every STEP of the way! Recommend is an understatement for this agent. I HIGHLY recommend him and his team! 10 Stars

Did my first ever home purchase with Graham Doody of Maverick Group and it couldn’t have gone any smoother. The time between viewings and getting the keys to my place was less than a month! Could not have done it without them and their work ethic. I would recommend Maverick Group to anyone purchasing a home in Airdrie or Calgary. Great people and good at what they do.

We had the pleasure of working with Graham Doody in our search for our forever home, and the experience was exceptional. Graham consistently took the time to listen to our needs and preferences, ensuring that every aspect of the home-buying process was tailored to us. His patience and expertise were evident throughout, guiding us with professionalism and care. Thanks to Graham’s dedication, we found the perfect home that truly feels like ours. We highly recommend Graham Doody to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and attentive realtor.

My 19 son and his girlfriend have just bought a condo and Graham was absolutely wonderful. With them being first time home owners. Always available to answer any questions they had. I would 100% recommend him and use him myself!! Just an all around great guy!!

Our Family recently sold a house with Maverick group, we were skeptical initially with the promises that were made, and to our pleasant surprise they delivered on everything! 6/5

From start to finish working with Derek as our realtor was an excellent experience. I would highly recommend him and his team. When we found the house we wanted. He was quick and efficient at getting the job done, as was the team of others (inspector, law office and broker) that he recommended to us. Thanks so much for getting the job done for us!!

I worked with Derek and Graham to purchase my new condo recently. Both were amazing to work with and walked me through each part of the process step by step. Both of them made every effort to be accessible and honest. Graham was wonderful in assisting me with the purchasing process, helping me get through all of my conditions and ensuring they were met and followed through with me during the entire process afterwards. I really felt like Graham had gone to bat for me and ensured that my interests were protected during the entire process. I can’t express enough my gratitude and appreciation for all their help during the months long process; they were attentive, professional, honest, and i felt well taken care of during this intimidating process. I highly recommend Derek, Graham, and the entire team at Maverick Group!

We recently purchased a home in Airdrie with the help of our girl Jamie!! We cannot speak enough about how awesome, accommodating and flexible Jamie was with us. As everyone knows how stressful it can be to purchase a home, especially in today’s market, she was very positive, relaxed, and reassuring which helped us through each step. Even when we were unsure and wanted to see a couple more properties prior to our closing there was no hesitation on her end. We joked that she was not only an awesome relator, but also a great therapist in our moments of anxiety…haha! She also set us up with an incredible contact who did an A+ home inspection. We HIGHLY recommend her, and would without a doubt use her services again in the future. Thank you so much to Jamie and her team at the Maverick Group!

This is way overdue but we had Darren helps us find a condo for our daughter going to MRU, he was awesome to deal with and would recommend him 100%.

Can’t say enough about Derek and the team. Thank you for all your help along the way!

Buying a house with a friend rather than a partner came with its own set of criteria we had in mind when looking for a home. When we found Derek and the crew at Maverick we knew we made the right choice. Derek was immensely helpful and with his construction background had a wealth of knowledge that helped us rule things out, or find things we didn’t even know we needed. We couldn’t be happier with any other house, largely thanks to Derek. ~Corey

Derek and his team made selling easy breezy. I hardly needed to do a thing. Which was great because I do not live in the city of my sale and also have a new baby. Was a very stress free experience.

Jamie and all the team made selling our home a stress free and seamless experience. From arranging all the services with getting the home ready for listing and again post home inspection, they took care of it all. Not to mention the great selling price (over asking) they obtained for us. A real pleasure to work with.

I am in New Home Sales and have worked with 100’s of realtors including Maverick group. When it came time to sell my own house, they were my first choice! The whole team is phenomenal but I would like to highlight the lovely Jamie McLachlin. She is the most organized and kind person. She doesn’t miss a beat and she’ll keep you smiling and laughing throughout a typically stressful experience. She is always one step ahead of the situation at hand and puts her customers needs above all else. There is no one better to bring you home. Thank you Maverick Group!

Derek went above and beyond to help us find our dream home. The entire Maverick Group team guided us through every step of the way, making our home purchase process incredibly easy. Whether you are relocating to (like us) or moving within the Calgary Metropolitan Area, Derek and his team will take great care of you!

Maverick Group is honestly the best! As a first time homebuyer, I had no clue what to do, when to do it, or where to even start. Maverick Group guided me through the whole process from the initial phone call to buy my first home. Derek and the team was very easy to speak to. There was no question too small. I am very happy with their professionalism and how prompt the process was to meet my personal needs. Five stars does not do this team justice!

Working with Derek on the sale of our property was a pleasure. He was extremely professional and efficient. His sales and marketing strategy resulted in a super quick sale and a great price. We can’t sing his praises enough and would highly recommend Derek and his team for your house sale and purchase.

5 stars is not enough for this team . I have not experienced service levels like this in years. I reached out to their office to sell a property in Airdrie and I hit the jackpot engaging this crew. They were on it immediately throwing all resources at it . Derek has a wealth of knowledge provided solid advice ,priced it right and sold it fast .Darren , Derek and Melissa work like a well oiled machine ,,what a team ! Made a difficult and stressful time “easy”. I would highly recommend this company to anyone
