About Me
My name is Troy DeVries and I want to share a little bit about my background. I grew up in Mount Vernon, WA and I had dreams of becoming a professional basketball player. I worked tirelessly to give myself a chance for my dreams to come true. Everything I dreamed of as a kid came to fruition through the Lords provision, hard work, and a tenacity that was unmatched. I ended up having a 12 year professional basketball career throughout Europe and Australia. While in college I married my wife of 18 years now, Stephanie DeVries. We have two beautiful daughters, Lexis and Aliah who were both born in Spain.
After retiring from playing professional basketball in 2017, Real Estate became my next profession to go after! My passion for giving my absolute best in all I do was transferred from basketball to Real Estate.
As a John L. Scott broker, my mission is transactional excellence and client satisfaction. That means I work honestly and with the utmost integrity to make your home buying or selling process as efficient, stress-free and lucrative for you as possible.
Representation
I take pride in offering high-caliber full-service residential real estate expertise. My clients are my top priority, and I focus on delivering the best possible results for them.
Expertise
The real estate market is hyperlocal, seasonal and temperamental—in other words, it can change on a dime. Technology has made information more accessible to everyone, but it can be difficult to keep up with recent events that affect home values. The benefits of working with a licensed real estate professional go far beyond what a mobile app, online video, or website can do.
I provide my clients with information on market seasonality and information relevant to what is happening in their specific neighborhood. This customized analysis includes recent comparable sales that factor into an offer and acceptance strategy.
Negotiations
Successful negotiations help move a conversation forward and transform the process into an agreement that’s a win for all parties. Negotiation is not only a skill, but a mindset. I keep my clients’ best interests top of mind as I negotiate on their behalf.
Transactional Excellence
I am dedicated to transactional excellence for every listing and sale. What this means for you is that I oversee every detail of the real estate transaction. The transaction is far from over once an offer has been accepted. I monitor inspections, appraisals, title, escrow and loan processes. Communication and collaboration with all the partners and parties involved with the transaction ensures a smooth and timely closing. I am committed to my clients before, during and after a sale.
