They came in to our home, gave us pointers of what needed to be done and offered resources to get the work done. Staging was work but it paid off and we had a contract to review on the second day. Definitely the team to work with!!!

As this was the 5th time we had sold a home and the 7th time purchasing a new home, I had considered all our previous experiences with other realtors to be the "norm". Not that they were necessarily bad in any way, but just that they were doing enough to get the job done and move on. Enter Derek and Mariana...WOW! We soon realized just how conditioned we had become to accept an average level of service. From day one we knew things were not only different with Derek and his team, but had taken us to a level of service and results we had never before experienced in the home buying/selling process. The Artisan Group's process and team of professionals took over immediately and soon proved why there are, by far, the very BEST in the business! Everything was customized and structured to sell our home FAST and for an optimal price; while also catering to our new home search in such a way that yielded amazing options that hit every mark on our wish list...and even delivered on many things we didn't even know we wanted or needed. Derek literally has a sixth sense about things once he gets to know his clients and he moves forward with complete determination to get the job done as if he were selling and buying form himself and his own family. No matter the issue or challenge (and there are always those in this process), The Artisan Group was several steps ahead of everyone and totally had things resolved before we could even take a moment to worry or fret about it...UNBELIEVABLE! Derek's stellar reputation and extensive network of professionals truly paid huge dividends, as everyone he dealt with knew his word was his bond and that he was a man/business of honor and integrity. Amazing how much can be done and resolved when you are represented by a class-act like him. Our end result on both the sale and purchase side of things was so enjoyable and seamless that we certainly can't imagine ever going back to a "run-of-the-mill" realtor in the future. Being able to turn EVERYTHING over to Derek and his staff and trust them to do what they do best was the greatest gift of all...and they delivered beyond all expectations! We were more than a client to them, we were "FAMILY", and that made all the difference. Thank you Artisan Group...for the first time in over 30 years, you made this process enjoyable and stress-free for us......and we love the views from our new abode:-)

Derek Wagner and his Artisan Group at Keller Williams Premier Realty, Colorado Springs, were referred to us by our previous realtor in Texas. He was recommended because he is considered as being one of the most experienced, competent and best connected realtors in Colorado Springs. He met or exceeded all expectations on every level. We highly recommend him and his team and will be going to him again, should we need top notch realtor services in the future! This experience has been our best of our five home purchases going back to 1999!

Over more than a decade, we have utilized his services for purchasing a property, selling a property, and renting a property with his office - the Artisan Group - as our property manager. Every experience has been flawless. Derek and his whole team take the time to really get to know and care about their clients, and will go way above and beyond to ensure you get the very best outcome. His connections and industry relationships are top notch, and his knowledge and instinct for the market is perfectly on point. This is absolutely the ringer you need in your corner - cannot recommend highly enough!!
