We recently purchased a condo at the St Armand's Towers. Doug was our realtor and the entire process was very professional, while also being friendly and enjoyable. He was patient with our many questions and helpful as he guided us through the purchase, making it hassle-free. We would highly recommend Doug to anyone and feel we have a new friend on Lido Key.
We met Doug 8 years ago when we purchased our home on St Armand’s Circle. He was the buyers agent. Doug was professional and quite knowledgeable about the area. 8 years later we listed our home and it was an easy decision for us to have Doug represent us as sellers. The closing of this property enabled us to purchase a unit in a condo that we had been considering for a few years. This transaction was possible because of Doug and his connection to the area. Doug is knowledgeable and proactively helps you find the piece of real estate that suits your individual needs We would highly recommend Doug and would certainly look to him for any of our future real estate needs.
Doug is an exceptional realtor In every way. He is professional, personable and highly qualified. Doug is not pushy but always has his clients best interest at heart and goes way beyond the norm in representing his clients. It’s simple, if you use another realtor you are losing out. If you want the best use Doug Parks.
