I'm absolutely thrilled with the experience I've had with Darryl!

Thanks to his expertise, he exceeded my expectations and secured a fantastic offer! I was especially impressed when he went the extra mile to do some touch-up painting before the showings—proof that he truly cares about his clients. If you want a dedicated agent who goes above and beyond, Darryl is your guy! - Nghi Nguyen

Darryl and his team provided excellent service while we were looking to buy a new property and in selling our properties. We have always had great experiences working with him. - Bella Wright
Darryl started working with us 2 years before we decided to sell. He guided us through steps we needed to take to get our home in show condition. When we decided to sell, he and his team staged our house and walked us through the listing requirements and what to expect in terms of value and time to sell. The sale of our home was very consistent with the expectations. Throughout the process, Darryl was an advocate, patient, professional and a trusted advisor. We highly recommend Darryl to anyone considering a real estate transaction. - Aggie B

If ever in a position to buy and/or sell again I would not hesitate to work with him - Teresa

My wife and I are first-time homebuyers and we feel so fortunate to have found Darryl through rate my agent. Darryl was nothing but exceptional throughout the process, as first-time home buyers there were so many unknowns for us, but he went above and beyond every step of the way to ensure that we felt comfortable and were well-informed throughout the process. Darryl was very patient and took a very strategic approach to make sure we found the perfect home for our needs. Darryl takes a very personal approach with his clients, we felt extremely comfortable and at ease working with Darryl to find our first home. One way I like to frame it is, "it felt as though we were working with a friend who just so happened to be a real estate agent", because that’s really how Darryl made us feel from day one, that we were building a relationship before even thinking about finding the right home. Another item that my Wife and I really loved and appreciated was that Darryl made sure to show us a good variety of homes within our price range so that we could get a sense of the different and varied options available to us, to help us figure out what key features was most important to us in our first home, and this was extremely beneficial to us. Thanks Darryl for making the daunting task of buying one’s first home as smooth and frictionless as one could imagine! - Marius De Allie
Darryl is a super kind and knowledgeable guy! He helped us find the home we were looking for and we could not be happier with the service he provided! He started out by getting to know us on a personal level and went above and beyond trying to find a house that suited our needs and he succeeded. Every time we went to a viewing his expertise in all areas of the house and what to look for made us super comfortable when we went through the offer process. Since this was our first home, he also went in detail as to how the offer process works and everything that goes into buying a home which was incredibly helpful! We would definitely recommend Darryl and his team to anyone who is looking to buy a home, he made it such a great experience! - Daniel Wall-Stone
Darryl went above and beyond as a realtor. Both my wife and I have relationships with other realtors, and nothing against them, but we connected with Darryl on a higher level. His genuine nature, loving demeanour and relaxed attitude is the perfect combination for his role as our realtor, and friend! Even if you ‘know a guy/girl’, give Darryl a call and spend 30min with him… you’ll appreciate the investment!! - Dave Jenkins

Very knowledgeable about the housing market in kitchener and waterloo. Everyone on the team was very friendly and accessible at all times. Darryl definitely made the whole process a lot more exciting and less intimidating, especially as first time home buyers. - Jody Brooks
Darryl and his team were friendly, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable, and we would definitely reccomend them to anybody looking to purchase a home in the Waterloo region. At each showing, Darryl would provide extensive information about the neighbourhood, ideas for future improvements, and a heads up on potential issues. When it came time to offer on a property, he gave what we believe were accurate estimates of what it was worth and what it would sell for, and when we found the one we really wanted, we were confident about our offer and are now very happy to call it home! If you're looking to work with an efficient team of good people with your best interests at heart, give Darryl a call! - Quinton and Kateryna
Darryl was professional in every way. The video he created to sell my home was inviting to the sellers and boasts all the positive details in buying my home. Would recommend him to all buyers and sellers as their representative. - Roberta Jean Ness
Darryl and his team were knowledgeable and personable. Together we came up with a selling goal and plan and it was quickly and professionally accomplished. Darryl knows his business and treats his clients with respect. I would recommend the Watty Way to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. - Jennifer Lacoste
Absolutely fantastic. Very thorough, and knowledgeable, explained paragraphs to me in the offer and what they mean to me. He is not in a hurry to make a sale like most realtor are...more interested in getting me the price I wanted. - Yolanda Pingos
Daryl was recommended to us by my cousin who is also a realtor in Toronto and from the moment my wife and I met with him virtually we knew we were in the right hands. I jokingly told him that we would only need to search for houses for one day. Well, one the first day we saw a house we liked, Daryl put in an "exploratory" offer (under asking) about 7 pm on the same day, and the following morning we woke up to an email saying "congrats, the seller accepted the offer." And that was it. It was a flurry of activities that Daryl assisted with for the next 60 days; guiding us through the downpayment, inspection, walkthroughs, and ensuring we got some updated appliances before closing. Overall, his guidance made the process that much easier. If you're still on the fence, make the decision--do things the Watty Way! - Clive Forrester
Working with Darryl was great. He was really easy to work with, knowledgeable about the area we were looking. Personally, I liked that he acted as a sober second look while looking at houses helping find potential areas of concern. - Mirko
From start to finish Darryl and his team were wonderful. Very professional to deal with, always available for any questions or concerns with a great response time. Darryl took the time to explain everything and was very supportive throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend Darryl to anyone buying or selling their home. - Susan Curran
Darryl is absolutely wonderful to work with. It’s like having a friend on the “inside” that is working for you. He has great experience and displays positive and honest approach. You know you are in good hands with him! - Kasia Radwan-Cho

I have bought and sold with Darryl twice now. I wouldn't work with any other agent. When selling he provides reassurance, knowledge and understanding of the market, your house and goals. When buying he really listens and makes sure he finds a home you will be happy in and that will provide your next goals and dreams. Darryl is extremely easy to work with, is very responsive, knowledgeable, patient and gets the job done effectively and smoothly. I highly recommend Darryl Watty when buying and selling a home! - Emily Melissa Schacht Doherty
Darryl was an absolute pleasure to work with. We worked with him in the past when we purchased our first home and were so impressed with his skills that we asked him to be our realtor when wanted to sell the house. He was knowledgeable, efficient, and passionate and we never felt left in the dark about the process of listing, staging, and selling our home. We would highly recommend Darryl to anyone looking for a reliable realtor. - Ashley Bell-Limisis
We've known Darryl since we randomly walked into one of his open houses four years ago and liked him so much that we stayed in touch. It was clear immediately that he was the agent for us. He is knowledgeable, practical, and works hard at everything from relationships to hands-on help getting ready to list. He has excellent taste, and a great team supporting him. We had such a good relationship with Darryl that we recommended him to friends years before we'd ever completed a transaction with him. Now that we've sold our house with Darryl, we're even more certain that we can't recommend any realtor more highly! - Jennifer Smith
Mr Watty is a highly knowledgeable, professional, and reliable Realtor. He was flexible and amenable to customize his service to meet our family’s unique needs, in a challenging and unprecedented housing market. Darryl Watty helped us to find, and acquire, the perfect home for our family. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to secure the best home for their real estate needs! - Christine Thornton
My wife and I found our experience with Darryl to be professional, very friendly, charismatic and very fun to work with! From first meeting, to placing the successful offer, Darryl was excellent at evaluating our needs, suggesting great potential properties to view (including relevant background on the area in terms of amenities and the communities), and really just educating us about what to look for when searching for and viewing a house. He did all of this, while making us feel like he was a part of our family/priority whenever we met or spoke with him. We really felt more confident in our knowledge/experience and happy at the end.. we would definitely recommend him and work with him again in future. - Marlon and Lieanna
As first time homeowners, we were scared and nervous about getting into the market. Everyone my partner and I had met with about potentially buying a home told us we weren't quite ready yet. Darryl Watty really took us under his wing and taught us everything we needed to know about buying a home, while making it fun and exciting. He pointed us in the right direction and explained all the details in ways that made sense to us. We didn't have a big budget to work with, but he made every effort to find a home we would be happy with. We ended up purchasing a home that we wanted, and we're so grateful we didn't have to settle for something else just to break into this crazy market. Watty is hands down a wonderful person and a top-notch realtor. If you're looking for an amazing realtor who also has your best interest at heart, you'd be crazy not to work with Watty and his awesome team! - Cristopher Corson
If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would! Darryl was so passionate about our home and selling it at the best price for us. He did 2 open houses when open houses weren't popular, and that is what eventually sold our house. He even took our dog for a walk during a showing when we were out for the night. Service doesn't get better than that! Thank you Darryl for all of your help. - Tammy
We had the pleasure to deal with both, Darryl and Jim. They are an excellent team and great real estate agents. They helped us with three transactions so far and always struck us as being very knowledgeable, professional and honest. They were always available to address any of our concerns from staging, pricing and market analysis to property maintenance and general construction. If you want a real estate agent who will give you a knowledgeable advice on the property, point out pros and cons, rather then just unlocking the door and nodding to everything you say, they are your guys. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking to buy or sell in the Kitchener-Waterloo or Guelph area. - Aygul and Amer Almani
I could not imagine a better real estate agent than Darryl Watty. He is the ultimate professional and at the same time a trustworthy friend who is truly always looking out for your best interests. This is the second time that I have benefitted from Darryl's expertise and would not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends! - Kristine M Wielgosz
