Jean & John Koch - "We live 16 hours away from South Florida and had been thinking of buying a vacation home for a while. We researched the market & found a few places we thought might work. After flying in and spending two days viewing homes with Lee unfortunately we did not find "the one". Lee, having spent time  with us and understanding what boxes we needed checked continued to watch listings. Shortly after our trip a condo became available that sounded perfect for us. Lee was able to send pictures and video that allowed us to decide that this was the one! Lee took care of all the paperwork and details, we could not have done this without his help and guidance. Lee's efforts and follow up were exceptional and we are forever grateful."

Palmer Wetzel - "Lee always did everything he could in selling my properties, and me purchasing a new home. He is very knowledgeable about the area I was looking to buy in. He was very accommodating to my schedule to show me properties."

Dawn Spence – “I have worked with quite a few realtors over time and the one that was far superior is Lee Van Der Heyde. My elderly mother and I were looking for a property in the Ft. Myers area to winter there and be near my kids (her grandkids). We started our search on the internet. Lee was the first realtor to make contact with me after I looked at their website. He took my daughter to see many properties.
Mom and I then came down and Lee showed us all of the final contenders. Lee was extremely helpful and knowledgeable every step of the way. We just closed on an amazing and perfect condo just minutes from the kids!
I would and will recommend Lee Van Der Heyde to anyone needing a caring, top-notch professional in your property search!!
Dawn Spence and Dolores Morelock”

Betsy and Jay Bailey – “Jay, Douglas and I wanted to thank Lee for your expertise in handling the sale of our property in Ft. Myers.
I’m sure you are aware that selling property long-distance is a bit unsettling, and you made the transaction very easy for us, despite the few problems we encountered along the way with this sale. You kept us informed of everything involved along the way with the sale, both the “bitter with the sweet”, and we appreciate your frequent communication with us, and keeping us informed of all aspects of the progress as Summer turned to Fall, and finally into the actual sale.
Also, at some point in the future, our plan is to purchase a property in the Bonita Springs area, and we will certainly keep you and your organization in mind when we are ready to take the step to, again, invest in a “Snowbird Home” in the Sunshine State.
Again, thank you and your team for your fine service.
Betsy Bailey”

Laurie Siren – “Lee definitely goes above and beyond for his clients! Not only did he work hard to help our family find a beautiful home within our budget, but he also was very thoughtful throughout the process, always thinking ahead, so that we would be prepared for what was next in the home-buying process. He was more than thorough, and we felt that he truly had our best interests at heart throughout the entire time we worked with him. We would highly recommend Lee and his team! Lee exceeded our expectations and has been the best realtor we have ever worked with!”

Ricky and Judy  – “Rick and I can’t thank you guys enough for all your assistance in finding our house. We really didn’t expect to find one in 2 weeks we were here on vacation, but you got right to it. We know you went out of your way many times to show us many homes. We appreciate the fact that we weren’t pressured into buying more of a house than what we need and you listened when we told you the price we wanted to stay at to keep within our budget. You are an extraordinary group and found a beautiful house that fit our needs… perfectly. Your customer service is exceptional and always a pleasure to speak with. We truly believe we couldn’t have found a better realtor. We will refer you to everyone we know. Thank You”
