Daralyn was a pleasure to work with and was always on op of our needs. I would recommend her to anyone as she went above and beyond to make sure nothing fell between the cracks during a personally difficult time.

We purchased vacant land in Florida in 1988 and in 2019 decided it was time to consider building our vacation home. We spent a weekend checking local builders. From the moment we met Daralyn we felt like we had known her for years. She was very responsive to all of our questions since it was our first time building a home in Florida. We returned home and began the process of reviewing the many builders. During this time Daralyn was available for all of our questions. It was a pleasure working with her and we would definitely reach out to her again for any real estate needs.

I recently contacted a real estate company to sell a house for me in South Gulf Cove in Port
Charlotte, FL. The company I chose was Paradise Exclusive Real Estate. An agent asked me if she could help me. I said yes and that started her professionally working endlessly to sell my house. She helped with outside weeding and cleaning out the garage. Every weekend she had an open house at the property. She knew what to do to make an empty house look attractive. We had several offers. We picked the one that fit our needs.
A few weeks later we had the closing. Daralyn Duquette worked hard. She will do whatever it takes to make her customers happy. My hats off to someone who cares. That is special in business today.

We worked with Daralyn 5 years ago to buy a lot in SGC and get it prepared to build on. She has just helped us purchase the lot beside us that we had been eyeing for a couple of years but hadn't moved on it. She made the deal for us. Her knowledge of the area and the process it takes to get things done was invaluable for both purchases. We highly recommend Daralyn! She made our retirement dreams come true!!

From the first time that I met Daralyn, she was very personable. I was unacquainted with the area I was looking in, and she gave me a wonderful tour of all the neighborhoods and pertinent information having to do with each one. Daralyn was always available when something new come on the market and I wanted to see it. She was very professional during the process and kept me in check when I got ahead of myself. I would definitely suggest her to others.

Daralyn is an absolutely wonderful agent to work with. My husband and I live out of state and we reached out to her about a piece of property we own in Florida that we wanted to build on. She was instrumental in helping us coordinate with a lender for our construction loan a well as helping helping us choose the right builder for our needs. Daralyn was there to help us every step of the way, sharing all of her knowledge to ensure we made the best decisions when it came to choosing our builder and the floorplan for our new home. Her list of resources is amazing, ranging from lenders, builders, insurance agents was well as specialized contractors. She has a contact for each step of the building process who could advise us. For anyone looking to buy or build a house I would highly recommend Daralyn Duquette.

Daralyn and Lex both worked very hard to help get our home sold. From the very beginning they were involved in getting our home ready and used professional photographers to show our home. It looked so great I didn't want to leave. They were at almost every showing we had so that they could show all the good points that might otherwise be missed. Our closing was some distance away and Daralyn did the driving. If you want your home marketed in the best possible way, then work with Daralyn and Lex.

I hired Daralyn during a trying time. My home had just been damaged by hurricanes. She was very understanding and supportive during this time. She brought food and drinks by before we even signed a contract. She brought some of her own items by to stage my damaged house to make it looked loved.
Times were bad in the area, but she remained extremely supportive and did all she could to help find a buyer. She and her husband did multiple open houses. She never put pressure on me to lower the price.
After a period of time I decided to renovate. Once that was completed, the house was back to where it was meant to be. A private paradise! She helped me thru it all the way. She would let me know about every showing. I knew my house was in great hands.
I would recommend Daralyn for anyone looking to sell their property. I would have no doubt she could help a buyer to find their dream home as well.

Attentive and Easy to Work With
We've been working with Daralyn for several years. She was always available to talk to, offered to assist us with walkthroughs, storage needs, etc. and was very patient as we had 4 buyers that needed to agree! We highly recommend Daralyn.

Daralyn was exceptional. My husband and I were looking to purchase a particular piece of land. As it was not for sale, Daralyn reached out to the owner of the land (a process that took several tries). She worked to get an agreement. Then when the seller totally changes his mind, she worked to get a new agreement. During this longer than it should've taken process, she kept in touch with my husband and I to keep us informed explaining the pros and cons of what the seller was offering. She went above and beyond and was ALWAYS looking out for my husband and my best interest. When she was showing a home in the same area as our land, she snapped a pic and sent it to us. Small things like that might not seem like a lot, but when you are an out of town buyer they mean the world to you!! If Daralyn puts all of this energy and effort into helping us buy a parcel of land, imagine how great she would be selling your house or helping you buy a new one!! Our thanks and appreciation for all Daralyn did for us.

Daralyn is the best! Her knowledge of construction and the process was invaluable in aiding us to build our new home. This insight would still be needed even if looking for an existing home. Daralyn's communication skills are fantastic and she really listens to your needs and wants, but at the same time can suggest ideas that were not thought of, in a wonderful and respectful way. She truly loves what she does and wants nothing but to make her clients happy. We could not have found anyone better in our search to build in this area! Florida!

We were in search of a realtor to sell our home. We decided to go with Paradise Exclusive located in Englewood and spoke with Brian Faro, owner. After hearing that we wanted to sell our 3bd/2bath with 2 car garage in Rotonda he put us in touch with Daralyn Duquette an agent with experience in the South Florida housing market. She was extremely experienced and reliable. She did her homework and came up with a sales plan. She had photos taken, videos both interior and from the air, suggestions on presentation and advertising and lot of knowledge on the market. This was way beyond what we were expecting. Well she sold our home at a great price, responded well to all possible buyers and passing lookers and completed all the necessary agreements and paperwork needed. I couldn't say more about Daralyn. Trustworthy, effective and she loved our dog! What more could you ask for from a realtor? Talk to Daralyn, she's worth the call.

We would and will continue to recommend her to our family and friends!!!!

I recently had the privilege of providing financing for one of Daralyn's clients. She was a Top Notch Agent and went above and beyond to find the Perfect Home in a Challenging, Fast Paced Market. Then once she had the Contract executed she was extremely helpful to me a the lender providing information, organizing documentation, scheduling inspections and making sure that the process ran smoothly and efficiently. Definitely a Great Agent!!! Thank you Daralyn

Daralyn's expertise and integrity ensured I found my ideal new home.
I felt very safe and well taken care of during my home search with Daralyn. She is extremely knowledgeable and often pointed out aspects of homes I was visiting that I would not have considered. I learned a lot from her. She also kept me well informed about the current housing market. I felt she was looking after my best interests and protecting me from exploitation. If I contacted her with a question or to obtain information, she responded promptly. As a first time home buyer, she carefully guided me through the process once I had selected the home I wished to purchase. I looked at a lot of properties, some more than once, and she was always patient and pleasant. Daralyn made new home buying a much easier process. I have already recommended her to a friend!

Daralyn was so helpful in helping us find our perfect spot to build our home. Since we knew very little about the area, Daralyn drove us around so we could better understand what Charlotte County offered. Daralyn took time out of her busy schedule to walk through dozen of lots that were wet, "soggy" and heavy with vegetation, many times alone just to find our perfect lot. I would recommend Daralyn to anyone and will be our only choice if we ever decide to sell.

Daralyn was awesome to work with. She has a super strong knowledge of the area and made good recommendations around what to look for when buying and what to stay way from. We threw her for a couple of loops in our search and she took them in stride. I would highly recommend Daralyn to anyone looking to buy a home, lot or investment.

Daralyn is a friendly, approachable agent who is client focused. She takes time to listen to buyer's requirements and does her utmost to find what the buyer likes. She replies to emails/phone calls very quickly and if she doesn't know an answer to a question, she'll get back to you quicky. Daralyn is not just an "agent" she quickly becomes someone you know you can talk to and trust with any concerns you have about your build/relocation. She goes the extra mile to make sure that her clients find exactly what they are looking for! I can highly recommend her.

My husband and I met Daralyn about 4 years ago when we were first building our retirement home. Right form the beginning of knowing her I could see she was passionate about her career. She was professional and detailed. She has charm and a drive to make her clients happy. We remained friends with her sending her referrals whenever we could from Massachusetts. When we were almost ready to give up on our retirement home and decided not to move to Florida we knew to call her right away. And she was on it for us. Paid attention to all my detailed expectations and met them for me. She is truly a great asset to any company and they should hold on to her. It's hard to find someone you can trust from long distance and know that they are willing to meet your needs and make it all happen even if you are not there with her. She took care of us that way and I am truly grateful. Thank you Daralyn for your patience and time and efforts to helping me and my husband make good decisions with our retirement home.

Highly recommend
We truly could not have asked for a better realtor to sell our home. Daralyn made us feel completely comfortable and cared for from the moment we met. She took the time to understand exactly what are goals were in selling our home. Daralyn guided us every step of the way, with her kindness, honestly and patience. No question or concern ever felt too small or went unanswered. Daralyn always had our backs, we knew we were in good hands. Daralyn's dedication and devotion is impeccable. Selling a home can be very stressful. Daralyn made it a positive, memorable experience. We are so grateful for all your hard work. The relationship we built in such a short time will be missed. Even Sukira, our big goofy dog will miss you. Thank you Daralyn for helping us start our new chapter.

Excellent!!! Two great realtors who provided a tremendous amount of effort in finding us the perfect home. Daralyn provided new listing updates as soon as properties were listed. A special effort was made as we resided in Pennsylvania with hopes of relocating to Venice, FL. Communication was key and Daralyn was exceptional in keeping us informed of all matters of interest to us. Great result, great home in Venice. Thank you!!
