RE/MAX Beach & Country's Top Selling Agent Various Months of 2009
Hi, I'm Derek Heppe. I am a full time, full service REALTOR with REMAX Beach and Country. My wife Rebekah and I help buyers and sellers with all of their Real Estate needs in the Myrtle Beach and surrounding areas of South Carolina. Throughout the 2009 season, I have been REMAX Beach & Country's top selling agent various months and have made a lot of new friends along the way. I take my job seriously and take pride in helping people, whether buying or selling a home or property.
I grew up in the beautiful area of the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania. I started out at a very young age helping my father in construction-building homes, log homes and additions. By the age of 16, my father made me a partner in his company and we worked together for quite some time. At age 21, I formed my own construction company, DNA Builders and specialized in log home building. During this time period, there were a number of foreclosed homes that began to pop up in our area of the Pocono's. This is when I became interested in real estate. We had a few really bad winters and many of the foreclosed homes needed a lot of work because of ice dams on the roofs that caused water damage. As a builder, I began investing in foreclosures & fixing them up for resale. I enjoyed restoring properties and helping communities become more attractive.
Although I loved the area...being a very active, outdoor person, I desired to live in a warmer climate closer to the beach. So at age 31, Rebekah & I moved to Myrtle Beach. At first, it was just going to be for visit, but we fell in love with the area and never left! I earned my SC Home Builders license and built a couple homes in Little River. It was at that time that I decided to get into Real Estate to sell my properties. But my passion for Real Estate took root and I then became a full time Realtor with RE/MAX and haven't looked back. I absolutely love my job!
It's a truly satisfying feeling being able to help people find the perfect property or to help a seller who really needs or wants to move. My experience as a builder has been a real asset because I am able to quickly identify a properties strengths or potential problems and help create solutions for those issues.
