Chris is a fabulous realtor.

Nothing is too small or large for him to tackle. His knowledge of the area and resources he brings makes the entire process so much easier. Not only will Chris guide you he makes sure that you are comfortable with your decision and keeps you on track. We built from a long distance and with Chris every step of the way was seamless and stress free. We are so pleased and still today thankful for Chris and still use his services. You won't be disappointed.

— Suzette DiPete Taylor

We worked with Chris in 2018 buying a house during our move from PA and again in 2021, buying and selling.

We wouldn't hesitate to work with him again. He certainly looked out for our best interests and worked very hard on both ends. Chris is very professional and a genuinely caring person. We are so happy to not only work with him but to have come to know him as a friend. Thank you Chris.

— Ted Roth

When exploring where to move in 2015, we were lucky to select and work with Chris when considering Wilmington.

We visited Wilmington several times, exploring the various developments and home styles. Chris was patient and generous with his time, shared expert knowledge of each development, and was an excellent tour guide of the area. In all phases leading up to and including the purchase of a model home, Chris was present and transparent. All questions were fielded promptly and he made us feel like his only client. I would not hesitate to recommend Chris to a friend, as I know they would be in good hands! Like many others who have had the pleasure of working with Chris, our business relationship quickly matured into a lasting friendship.

— Gail Loeb

I highly recommend working with The Creekmore Realty Group.

They are great!
