I’m Derek Mikkola, an Affiliate Broker with Weichert Realtor Saxon Clark and a dedicated real estate investor, proudly licensed in both Tennessee and Virginia. My journey in the real estate industry has been driven by my passion for helping clients navigate the complexities of buying and selling homes, and I take great pride in being a reliable resource for both buyers and sellers. Living in Green
eville, TN, I thrive on providing personalized service to my clients, ensuring that I am always available by phone, text, or email to address any questions or concerns they may have. I understand that real estate transactions can be significant life events, and I am committed to guiding my clients through the entire process with care and professionalism. Before transitioning into real estate, I gained valuable experience in various technical fields. I worked as a lab technician at Eastman Chemical Company, where I honed my analytical skills and attention to detail. Additionally, my time as an Advanced Emergency Medical Technician and Phlebotomist equipped me with the ability to remain calm under pressure and to respond effectively in high-stress situations. This background has not only shaped my approach to client service but has also instilled in me a profound understanding of the importance of clear communication and trust. I am an alumnus of East Tennessee State University, and my educational background has provided me with a strong foundation for my career. My drive for knowledge and professional growth continues as I stay up-to-date with the latest trends and developments in the real estate market. Beyond my professional pursuits, I am a proud husband and father of two wonderful children. Family time is incredibly important to me, and we often enjoy engaging in outdoor activities together. One of my favorite hobbies is bowling, which not only serves as a fun way to unwind but also helps strengthen my focus and strategy—skills that translate well into my real estate career. As I embark on each new transaction, my goal is simple: to make the real estate experience as seamless and successful as possible for my clients. Whether you are a first-time homebuyer, looking to sell your property, or seeking investment opportunities, I am here to help you every step of the way. Let’s connect and begin this journey together!
