Darby Merriman

What do Clients Say?

Darby was such a dream to work with! Even at our first meeting, when we were just starting to toy with the idea of selling, she came to our house with SO much incredibly helpful information to help us make an informed decision. She talked us through the entire process, made recommendations on updates that were worth our time and money, helped with staging, and more! Her and all of her staff were very responsive, even during the middle of the craziest market ever. Her expertise helped us get an incredible, above asking offer on our house with amazing concessions! We couldn’t have been happier!

I met Darby through a friend that recently relocated and highly recommended her. I was not disappointed. I moved from out of state, which in itself was complex, but Darby made my transition to Texas such a wonderful experience. I looked at one home through video chat, made an offer that afternoon and the offer was accepted shortly after. Darby's professionalism, knowledge, kindness, and availability made purchasing my new home such a delightful experience. I got what I wanted, where I wanted, and have not had one regret. It has been everything I had hoped it would be and more. Thank you Darby!

Darby and her team gave 100%. Trustworthy and dependable. Buying a new home in a new state can be very stressful and it was a very smooth process with this group.

Darby is the best realtor that I have ever worked with! She is truly amazing. Honest, detail oriented, and truly caring. I was nervous about listing in the middle of a global pandemic. She made sure that every precaution was taken. I highly recommend her!!!

I was in a very difficult situation. Had to sell a home in DFW, while dealing with an Estate Sale in San Antonio. She was invaluable! Helped find people to do repairs. Worked to get the property marketed and knew the right ways to entice buyers. I could not of asked for someone better. I trusted her at every turn.
