Testimonials

I can't say enough good things about Phil Devries; he was like a port in the storm during a very difficult move. He understood what I was looking for in my new home. He provided me with excellent options that took into consideration my preferred location, size, and budget. And when the time was right, Phil connected me with an excellent team to complete the transaction. I really believe that Phil made it possible for me to secure my new home in a very competitive market."

There is a lingering stereotype in the present day real estate world that brokers are lazy and their lack of knowledge with the market promotes an inability to sell your property. Phil is an outlier to this thought. During my interview, Phil impressed me with his realistic numbers when placing a value on my property, and likewise, the timeframe that he anticipated for the trade to occur. He is charismatic, with a strong ability to engage appropriately with a potential buyer without being overwhelming. More importantly, he is pragmatic. He applies common sense at every step, which is incredibly refreshing in the real estate realm. I have no doubt that Phil will help you accomplish your real estate sale goals."

Phil did a great job helping us sell our house and find a new condo. He was attentive and always available for questions and suggestions. We sold our house for full asking price after only 7 days and purchased a condo the next day. Thank you Phil for all your help!"

I can't say enough good things about working with Phil. He never gave up on helping me find the right home in my price range, and never once tried to push anything that didn't make sense for me. He truly listened, respected my budget, and didn't waste my time walking through places that weren't a good fit. On top of that, he knows the area incredibly well, which made the whole process feel even more personal and informed. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients, highly recommend!"

Working with Phil DeVries has been an incredible experience! He helped me navigate the competitive Grand Rapids market, and I couldn't be more grateful for his support. Phil is extremely knowledgeable about the area, which made me feel confident every step of the way. He's gone above and beyond to show me multiple homes and never gave up until we found the perfect one. I'm now the proud owner of a beautiful house thanks to Phil's dedication and expertise. Highly recommend!"

Phil DeVries helped me purchase my dream property in 2017. He impressed me off the bat as he very quickly replied to an inquiry I made on the property after having found it listed online. He was very frank and forthcoming and ultimately I chose him as my real estate agent (he had been working as the seller's agent... using him as a dual agent worked well for both parties and simplified things a great deal). Purchasing my property came with some complications as there was an encroaching neighbor on one side of it. Though it took some work (and time), Phil was able to navigate us through various surveys, local government, & a skeptical neighbor, while answering my numerous questions along the way. At the end of the day, I am very happy with my purchase and having Phil as my agent!"

When looking for the right hunting land I wanted to make sure I used a realtor that would help me objectively rate each piece of real estate I walked. It's easy to get excited and want to buy the first parcel with a few nice attributes. So, when Phil Devries came highly recommended by a well-known industry leader, I jumped at the chance to get his input on a property I had been interested in. I've known Phil for several years now and have both bought and sold recreational land with him a handful of times. Each time he continues to impress me with his knowledge, professionalism, commitment, and dedication. Phil is always quick to respond to calls and communicates extremely well. He has done an amazing job finding properties that meet my needs and does so in a timely manner. Futhermore, he goes above and beyond to move the properties I've listed with him: making sure to follow up on any and all interested parties.

Michigan Outdoor Properties is the successful real estate company that it is today due to the hard-work and dedication of Phil Devries. I would recommend him to anyone interested in finding their dream property. He will do his very best to make your dreams a reality."
