Doc helped Eric and I find our home!! Not just a house to live in but our HOME. He found the place we will raise our family, the place we will build our life together. Doc Deason should be the industry standard of realtors. He is dedicated, honest, client-driven and works tirelessly to find that one perfect fit for each individual. He sacrificed above and beyond to help us find our home. He even arranged the closing to be done at the hospital where I work because it was more convenient for us!!! When we decide to move our family in the future, there is no question who our realtor will be. With out hesitation, our friend Doc will be the only name on the list!!!
Amy & Eric Van Cleve -- Hideaway, Texas
Last year we moved from Lindale and were forced to put our real estate business in the hands of a stranger. Fortunately, that stranger was Doc Deason. He quickly took care of all necessary tasks and had our house rented out to a reliable & trustworthy tenant almost immediately.
Doc worked hard to make our purchase happen. We looked at several homes before ever making an offer. Doc wants his clients to buy the home that they are comfortable with. There was no pressure in working with Doc. I would recommend Doc to anyone looking to purchase a home.
Jon & Jamie Thornhill -- Lindale, Texas
Doc was very patient with us while we looked for our new home. He stayed in touch and worked with us even beyond closing. He continues to be helpful while we look at investment properties, too. We always feel that he’s got our best interest in mind.
John & Gena Ragland -- Tyler, Texas
In an internet ocean full of realtors who’ll say “they’re working for you…” Doc is a life preserver! He and his lovely “assistant” helped decorate, and sell my home. Doc was with me from start to finish and helped get me in my new home at a time when I thought I had no way of getting a roof over my head! He helped secure financing and even was there with a house warming gift!
Bob Brackeen -- Winona, Texas
I was extremely pleased with the service I received from Doc Deason when we sold my home. He is very personable and it is obvious that he cares about his clients. I never felt like I was just a job for him. It was very important to him to make sure I was taken care of and he made a stressful process very comfortable.
He took me around to look at other houses in the price range I was selling in so I could get an understanding about prices. He is a very busy man, but when it was time to work on my house, I had his undivided attention and felt like a priority.
An extra bonus was getting the expert staging help from his wife, Alissa. She took the time to help me make my home beautiful for showings. She takes what you already have and arranges it in a way that it is appealing to purchasers. My house had never looked so good!
I highly recommend using Doc Deason and when it is time for me to purchase another home, I will definitely use his services.
Angela Rogers -- Tyler, Texas
Doc Deason handled the sale of our family estate. He did a wonderful job. He always kept us informed of what was happening. He made sure that we were treated fairly and that we received a fair price for our property. He knows his job and is always willing to answer questions. He is fair and honest and always willing to help.
Rita Robbins -- Lindale, Texas
When I moved back to the Texas after 18 years and needed to help my elderly parents sell their house, I knew exactly who to call. Most of our transaction was handled from a distance since my family was in Dallas and my parents were moving to North Texas. Dave helped us find someone to handle the estate sale, a contractor to do the repairs needed to attract the most favorable offer possible, and made sure the property was staged to sell. His expertise helped us get the job done quickly, his patience helped my parents get through an emotionally difficult life event, and thanks to his consideration my Dad got the deal he wanted and we had an overall positive experience. Thanks Dave!
Mandala Riveros -- Plano, Texas
Being a first timer homebuyer is such a nervous and overwhelming process; but with the help of Doc Deason, he made this process very smooth.

Brenda Rubio -- Tyler, Texas
My wife and I were excited, but nervous about purchasing our first home. Since knowing Doc for many years, I knew he would be the perfect person to ease our worries. He always took time to answer the many questions we had, and tirelessly made sure we were comfortable with the home-buying process. We love our house! Thanks, Doc!
Jason & Maya Bethany -- Tyler, Texas
Doc made us feel at ease from the get go. He was patient, honest, and always available to communicate and guide us through the home buying process. It was a great feeling knowing he was genuine and looking out for our best interest. As first time home buyers we couldn't have ask for a better realtor and such a smooth process.
Seth and Megan Murphy -- Tyler, Texas
We were delighted with the efficient way Doc Deason listed our property, taking advantage of internet options to find potential buyers. Doc kept us informed and sold our property within a very short time for a very good price. If we ever need to sell another piece of real estate, we will definitely call him!
Joseph and Nancy Predaina -- Mineola, Texas
Thanks for the service you provided my family in our effort to relocate to Texas from Florida to be close to our daughter and grandkids.
We had a long list and a short budget, you delivered on a piece of acreage, with trees and only a few minutes from town, in a nice community!
Along the way we also gained a friend and found some great places to eat. Things didn’t work out with our home sale in Florida and we found it necessary to sell our dream piece of property, of course we turned to Doc.
Doc found a buyer in a short time and made the long distance transactions easy. So buying or selling or having lunch with a friend I can highly recommend Doc!
Randy & Mary Macey -- Ocala, Florida
My husband and I were referred to Doc Deason when we sold our home in West Texas. He was there for us from May 2009 until we closed Jul 2009. Whenever we had a question he was right there with an answer. Doc Deason is an outstanding realtor and a good friend.
Marty and Gene Weatherman -- Ben Wheeler, Texas
We have had some bad experiences in the past with Realtors that try to push you past your comfort zone financially for a gain on their end, so we were skeptical when we started shopping around in Tyler. Working with Doc has been the best experience we have had with any Realtor. He was always an advocate for "Team Cole" and went above and beyond pushing our deal through to completion while always making sure we understood the steps in the buying process. By the end of our buying experience, we not only had a great Realtor, but a friend that truly cared. "Team Cole" gives Doc Deason two thumbs up!!
Doc is an awesome guy to work with! He puts his customers before himself, and actually makes it feel as if he is purchasing the house with you. He points out negatives and positives, goes the extra mile to make sure you get exactly what you are looking for, and makes the process as simple as it can possibly be. After getting frustrated with other realtors, we tried Doc, and had our dream picked out in just a couple of weeks. He was truly a blessing to our family, and I would recommend him to anyone!
Matt & Brooke Ranshaw -- Troup, Texas
Doc is one of the nicest and most honest people you will ever meet in any profession. As a realtor, he made the process of looking for a house as stress free as possible. He was patient when looking, both in the amount of time we spent at each house and with how many we viewed. I never felt any pressure to make a quick decision. He wanted to make sure the house I purchased was the right one for me.
Teri Green -- Tyler, Texas
Doc Deason has represented me in selling several properties, including my home. I feel like Doc is very professional and honest in our interactions. Doc consistently communicates with me about the status of my listing. He is not the type of Realtor that just puts a sign up in the yard and waits. He contacted the realtors that were showing the property and gave me feedback every step of the way. Doc also made staging recommendations that I found very helpful and I feel that those recommendations were part of why my home sold as quickly as it did. Doc listened to us about our concerns, and I felt like he had a thorough understanding of our needs and desires. We have referred many family members and friends to Doc Deason, and he has always exceeded my expectations.
Brad Root -- Tyler, Texas
I live in Washington state, and needed an agent that was willing to help me across state lines. I had a bit of a problem in that I was not able to come down to Texas personally. I had to deal with this transaction via phone and email. I did a little research, and came in contact with Doc. I knew from the very first phone call that Doc was the agent for me. Doc was so helpful, and had such a willingness to help. I honestly can't say a single negative thing about working with Doc. We were able to work together as a team that never met. If I could go back, I would do it all over again. Thank You!
Alicia Elliott -- Marysville, Washington
When you're searching for a real estate agent the one thing you should look for is integrity. Doc Deason is a man of integrity, who will look out for your best interest. We have used Doc in several home buying and selling transactions and couldn't be more pleased with our results.
Rev. Todd A. & Kelli Cooper - Tyler, Texas
As first time home buyers, after hearing horror stories and warnings of bad houses, we were a bit nervous about dealing with the agents and homes. Working with Doc was both a relief and a breath of fresh air. He was friendly, available, and honest with us through our whole home buying experience. I would recommend Doc to anyone who is looking for someone to help them either buy or sell their house. We will definitely use him again in the future!
Chris & Ashleigh Cullins -- Tyler, Texas
I would like to take this time to thank Doc Deason and Real Edge Real Estate for giving our family the best experience in buying our first home. When we realized it was time for us to take this huge step in life we didn't know what to expect. People told my husband and I how hectic and time consuming it was to buy a house, but we didn't care. We were prepared and ready for whatever came our way. We knew God wouldn't give us any challenges we couldn't handle. If anything it was quite the opposite. Challenging, yes. ALOT of paper work, emails, faxes, etc. But hard? Not at all! We were truly blessed to have Doc at our sides? He is a true gladiator in the real estate business and not only did we have a great realtor...but a friend as well. He knew exactly what he was doing at all times and NEVER let us down. Also we're not even from Tyler. But that did not stop him from driving back and forth on several different occasions. I felt so bad at times because he never slowed down and when I mentioned it to him he would say he enjoyed the drive and it was worth it. That meant everything to us, knowing we had the right people for such a huge step in our lives was worth any challenge! For those of you who have come to that point in your life, whether you're buying or selling a home, especially Buying your first home, check Doc out at Real Edge Real Estate! You won't regret it that's for sure!
Preston & Kala Lake -- Jacksonville, Texas
When we decided we were going to look for our home, Doc Deason THE ONLY REALTOR of choice. He’s an honest, professional realtor and a really great guy. His down to earth demeanor makes you feel like you’re the only one he’s working with. He didn’t try to upsell us and stayed within our budget. His honesty and integrity speaks for itself. He showed us homes and pointed out things in the house that were good and bad. When we found our home, he took us through the process. He answers your questions no matter where he is or what day it is. This man is a fantastic person and realtor. I’m glad he was there to help us find our home. He’s a TOP notch realtor and friend.
Steve & Elane Hill -- Flint, Texas
This is a voluntary and very strong endorsement of the services recently provided to me by Doc Deason and his associates at Real Edge Real Estate in Tyler, TX. I found myself in a very difficult financial bind, with some time sensitive pressure regarding potential foreclosure, and a need to sell my home quickly. A close friend had suggested using Doc as my agent, indicating he could also provide accurate weather information!
Indeed, I feel very fortunate that I was able to utilize his expertise, but more than that, I found him to be honest, sincere, compassionate, understanding and possessing a rare combination of professionalism and genuine caring.
I had previously dealt with several home buyers (and realtors) who sensed my somewhat desperate situation and attempted to take advantage of it. Doc Deason, his wife, and partner never did anything except act appropriately, compassionately, and with great consideration regarding my difficult situation. They were very timely and efficient, without being pushy, but the qualities I appreciated most were his intense sensitivity and complete honesty. I could not have been more fortunate than to have found this professional, personable, reliable, and impeccably honest person to assist me with the task of selling my beloved home. I would endorse his services without any hesitation whatsoever. I plan to give him my permission to have any future potential clients contact me, if they desire, for a direct and personal recommendation!
Dr. Terry D. Woodard -- Tyler, Texas
Doc and I met while serving on a Tyler Junior College committee together. Knowing he is a local realtor, I asked to pick his brains on how best to go about buying a house. Doc was so gracious and patient in answering my hundreds of questions and, to make a long story a bit shorter, helped me find my dream home! He guided me through the entire process, helped me find a broker, an inspector, pest control, you name it. I have found him to be a man of integrity with the servant heart. I call Doc my fairy godfather and - even more importantly - my friend. I highly recommend Doc Deason of Real Edge Realty for any of your realty needs.
Marian Jackson -- Flint, Texas
The selling of our first home could have been a stressful situation; Doc put our mind's at ease, and handled everything very professionally. His wisdom in real estate and experience of the area allowed us feel comfortable with our decisions. We were very excited to be negotiating offers in a matter of days! We would highly recommend Doc's services!
Doc Deason helped my son sell his home in 2010. Then, he helped me sell my home in 2011 and purchase another home. When I decided to make this last move, I called Doc. He was at my home within days with his camera and signs. He took wonderful pictures as he did on our other homes, and posted the sale of the home within days. The home was shown 2 times, and the second looker made an offer. It sold within three days of being listed. Doc is efficient and meticulous. I'm so glad he's been there for my real estate needs. I trust him completely. His wife is also an amazing stager. She showed me how to stage my home for sale, and it made an amazing difference.
Gwen Brackeen -- Lindale, Texas
If you are in search of a realtor in the Tyler area, I would like to share my experience dealing with Doc Deason. I live in Marshall and Doc was the listing agent for my father's home north of Tyler. This was a unique property to sell and had been listed with other agents over almost a three year period. We were referred to Doc Deason and he sold it. Doc was always prompt in returning my calls, emails and texts and kept me informed every step of the way. Being over an hour away, this was so appreciated. I highly recommend the real estate services of Doc Deason.
Glenn Bickerdike -- Marshall, Texas
I am looking forward to the time I can meet Doc Deason in person, shake his hand and thank him for the excellent service he provided in helping me purchase a home for my daughter and son-in-law in Tyler, Texas. I reside in California. Thanks to Doc’s knowledge, professionalism and willingness to go the extra mile, the home was purchased without me setting a foot in Texas! Doc was able to provide very competent and reliable referrals for the necessary inspections and other services that are required when purchasing a home. Integrity, honesty, trust, respect and character are words that come to mind when I reflect on my interactions with Doc. It was a real pleasure working with Doc. I recommend him highly!
Frank Baccelli DDS -- Elk Grove, California
When I changed jobs in March and had to relocate to the Tyler area from Houston, I needed to find a home on short notice. Fortunately a friend put me in touch with Doc Deason. Doc talked to me about what I was looking for and was quickly able to help me narrow down my search. Doc was very attentive to my needs and worked with my hectic and often erratic schedule to ensure that I was able to see all of the homes I wanted to consider within a short time frame. Doc's assistance was invaluable to me in quickly finding my new home and getting the deal closed.
Ricky Fergurson -- Flint, Texas
When I decided to sell my house and began the hunt for a great realtor, a friend of mine suggested I contact Doc Deason. He had been the realtor to work with my friend's mother and had sold her house in a few days! From the first call until the last forms were signed, Doc was a joy to work with. He did a walk through of my house before listing and emailed me some suggested items to improve/repair or stage differently. As a result of his input, experience and the great exposure my house had online, the day it listed we had 3 showings and two offers by the following morning. The entire process was a seller's dream come true and I'm grateful to Doc for all his help!
Ingrid Klein -- Henderson, Texas
Doc was referred to us by our lender and we called him right away. We had already found a house that we liked, and Doc set up a showing. Our first meeting was at the house, and Doc was very nice, easy to talk to, and very interested in what we were looking for. We liked the house, put an offer on it and Doc worked with us through the whole process. Unfortunately, that house was not meant for us, and Doc set up several other showings. He was very patient as we looked at a few more houses and found one that was perfect for our family. Doc worked hard to get us the house we wanted and we love it! We recommend Doc to anyone looking for their next home.
Mark & Jamie Robbins -- Flint, Texas
The passing of a parent is invariably a trying time. In addition to the inevitable heartache and loss, there are often other matters that require the family’s immediate attention, regardless of whether they are immediately able or willing to address such matters. My sister and I discovered this hard reality when our mom passed away. We were racked with grief, but mom’s estate, which included the house in Tyler in which she’d spent the last fifty years of her life, the house in which she raised me and my sister, needed to be tended to. Our situation was exacerbated because I live in Arizona, and my sister lives in San Antonio.
Consequently, when we decided to sell mom’s house, we needed someone on the ground in Tyler that we could trust, and that would understand our situation. We chose Dave (Doc). It was an easy choice. We’ve known Dave and his family since we were little kids. Mom was a loyal customer of Dave’s dad’s pharmacy, and Dave’s mom taught at my elementary school. We knew he was hard-working and competent. More importantly, we knew that he was an eminently decent human being. At a time when we were grieving over our loss and feeling rather helpless in Arizona and San Antonio, Dave helped us get mom’s house listed, cleaned up, landscaped, ready to sell, and promptly sold. In all of these things he conducted himself always with an obliging and understanding demeanor. My sister and I cannot thank him enough for helping us through a very difficult period.
Brian Palmer -- Phoenix, Arizona
Our experience of working with Doc has been a very pleasant one, he is very knowledgeable and met all of our needs throughout the real estate process. He is very patient and makes you feel like more than just a client. His efficiency, timeliness, and honesty are just a few of the perks of working with someone who knows and understands not just the market but the people he works for here at home in East Texas! I would recommend Doc Deason for anyone who wants their home buying/selling experience to be outstandingly smooth!

He made me feel very comfortable and took so much stress away. He also showed real expertise as a Realtor. He and his wife, Alissa, even helped me stage my house before listing. I have never heard of a Realtor going that far for a client. He kept me informed during the whole process and gave me good advice as well. I would recommend Doc to anyone wanting to sell his or her house. I feel very blessed to know Doc. With the help of Doc, my house was sold quickly and painlessly.
