"I'm not going to tell someone to go to a destination that isn't right for them. I'm not going to sell a house I don't believe in. That's just not who I am."
Before real estate, Derica spent over 16 years in the travel industry specializing in destination weddings and honeymoons, and years in health, wellness, and fitness coaching — always in service of people at their most important moments. That history of trust, honesty, and personal care is the foundation of everything the Hearts to Homes Team does today.

Contact Us to Search ListingsDerica caught three major contract issues before we signed — including a clause that would have let the builder delay closing by 12 months with zero penalty. She saved us so much stress and probably thousands of dollars.
Derica negotiated a $6,500 closing credit, a free appliance package, and made sure we had an independent inspector at every stage. The builder's agent was clearly not used to working with someone as knowledgeable as her.
She noticed foundation grading issues the builder's team had glossed over, and they were corrected before we closed. She is the reason we feel completely at peace in our new home.
