Beatrice Wilson, Wilmington, DE, a seller from Wilmington, DE
I have worked with Denise on three home sales. Two sold within a day and the third sold within two weeks (was listed around Thanksgiving time). Denise was accurate in her evaluation of my home and did an excellent job in promoting and featuring my home. I would recommend Denise to anyone who is serious about getting their home sold. Thanks so much!
Denise was recommended to me through a family member. From the beginning, talking to Denise was like talking to someone I had known for years. She paid attention to my likes, wants and needs when it came to selecting a new home. I would absolutely use her services again and recommend her to anyone that's in need of a realtor. Denise will absolutely be receiving an invite to my house warming!!

Denise Gaines recently helped my wife and I buy our dream home in Newark. From the second we met til closing (and even after) she was nothing less than perfect. Very responsive, extremely knowledgeable, and able to make what can be a stressful process virtually a breeze. I cannot say enough good things about Denise, and we'll always remember what she was able to do for us!
Melbourne &Beatrice, Philadelphia PA, a buyer from New Castle, DE
It was a great pleasure working with Denise Gaines, her level of patience and professionalism deserved A . She never gave up on our hope of acquiring a house. My husband and I started started with Ms Gaines March of 2022 and finally found a house October 2023.
Ms Gaines is soft spoken and was never too busy to call, return calls, send reminders, or gave her best advice and recommendations. The papers works seemed a little overwhelming at times however Ms Gaines walked us through them with such expertise. Her calmness was almost like therapy and I pray that the Lord will continue to bless her as she continues her job.
Jumping into the housing market was a terrifying prospect; I had heard of all the steps required in purchasing your first home, and I worried I would never reach that goal. However, Denise made the process easy and straightforward, and answered every question I had with professionalism and expertise. I cannot recommend Denise enough, especially if this is your first time purchasing a home. She helped us find our dream home, and I am forever thankful for her services!

Denise Gaines is an outstanding real estate professional! Knowledgeable on everything from lending to inspections to closing and more! I was fortunate to have Denise assist me with this sale.
She was extremely conscientious in EVERY aspect of this sale, from my first conversation to the closing and follow-ups. I trusted her judgement communication and expertise 100% because of how thoughtful she always was in a sale that was challenging at times, and was not a large sale. She gave her best always in every aspect.
Denise was over the top in professionalism. She helped me solve some issues with simple quick solutions. In every single conversation, she listened and expressed understanding. Her follow-up on my questions was spot-on, timely, and with thought and wisdom. I couldn't ask for a better partner in this transaction.
When I buy another home (or I have an opportunity to recommend an expert), I wholeheartedly look forward to working with Denise.
Gina P. Johnson, Newark, DE, a buyer from Newark, DE
Denise Gaines is an excellent realtor! She is knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate. She has spent numerous hours with me over the past several months from the time I contacted her to sell my home until the time of closing on my new home. She would either call, text, email or meet me if I had any concerns or to share/update me regarding the process. She explained in detail the selling, buying and closing paperwork to make sure I understood it. She is also well acquainted with most of the realtors and attorneys that were involved which put me at ease during settlement. She is well respected in the real estate business as she is President of the NCC Board of Realtors.
I highly recommend Denise Gaines and would not hesitate to use her services again.
Denise is the best. She has great knowledge of the areas that we were looking at, super patient, intelligent, dedicated, goes above and beyond for her clients. If I could go through the process again I would. She has made my home buying process super easy from looking at several homes, putting in bids all the way up to closing day. Denise is amazing I would love to work with her again in the near future and will be my number one recommendation. All I am trying to say is that youre in good hands with Denise Gaines.
Denise Gaines was referred by friends and I was pleased with the recommendation. She was professional from the beginning by sharing her experience and knowledge of the real estate business. She was concerned about my needs and desires and committed to my needs. She was always prompt with communication via phone, email or in person. Now that my house is sold she remains determined to assist me in finding a mother home. Her work ethic is second to none.
It was a pleasure working with realtor Denise Gaines. She's professional and

I can't say enough great things about Denise. She was so responsive when I was searching for a home and that lasted all the way through closing on it.

Angelina Idler, Newcastle county, a buyer from Bear, DE
Denise was top notch through the whole process of finding a house. She scheduled a tour within a day sometimes hours as soon as we liked a house. We appreciated her knowledge of the market and the industry. We would recommend her to all.
We worked with Denise Gaines 8 years ago purchasing a rental property. When we decided to put our primary home for sale we immediately thought of her again. Denise gave great advice on putting the house in a good condition for sale. It was sold super fast. And she provided excellent service throughout the entire process. Would love to work with her again and we already asked her to help us with the next rental property.
My experience with Denise was great from start to finish. She was responsive and extremely helpful. She was always quick to respond to inquiries and kept me updated on everything. She accessed resources for me and was always timely. It was truly a pleasure and I am happy that I saved her postcard. Denise is professional and personable. She demonstrated a business persona in a caring manner. You knew that she had your best interest in mind.
Denise has been instrumental for me and my family to make my first home buying process smooth. The covid19 struggle did not stop her from giving the best of her professionalism. From the contract to closure, the process lasted 30 days exactly, That is 2 weeks earlier than I could have hoped.
Thank you for being a 5 stars agent Denise!
I will always recommend you.
Harriet Surdi 201 Tamara Circle, Newark,, a buyer from Newark, DE
Denise Gaines exceeded my expectations since she continued to help me for almost 9 months from first initial showings to closing this past January. she was responsive, always answering my "thousand" questions (bless her), since relocating was overwhelming to me; and even after the sale and closing of the house, has always continued to be an invaluable guide to the issues of the purchased home that appeared after the sale. I would highly recommend her; she was extremely knowledgeable about the local area and experienced, since her instincts for negotiating in this marketplace were excellent and trustworthy; so different from the NY marketplace.
Denise definitely goes the extra mile being extremely responsive and patient; her advice was extremely "on the mark" and her referral for home inspectors etc excellent;
Being a first time home buyer, I was extremely nervous and even hesitant at times during my house search. Denise Gaines had the patience and fortitude to calm my nerves and help me find the right house for myself. Every time there was a new document to sign or a crucial step to complete, Denise would go over everything with me thoroughly.
Denise was the perfect realtor for selling my property. She always got back to me in a timely manner and answered any of my questions. She also went above and beyond when it came to selling my house. I would recommend her to my friends and family. Thanks Denise you are awesome
Tammy Morris, formerlly of Newark, DE-, a seller from Newark, DE
Denise always answered calls or texts in a quick and timely manner. She was understanding of the time commitment to get my house ready for market. We worked together over 6 months preparing. Her advise was crucial in my decisions.
Denise gave suggestions, and support every step of the way. My house sold on the first day.
When I felt overwhelmed packing up a home I had lived in for 25 years and moving across country, Denise was there with support and encouragement.
Could not have done this without her.

Denise was excellent from start to finish.She was understanding, quick and always available. Everything was handled in a timely manner and the way we would expect from a senior agent.

Denise Gaines possess outstanding characteristics such as being Personable, Trust worthy, and Knowledgeable which made her the Best realtor that I could have selected. She had been a long time friend of my husband as they worked together in Philadelphia and rode the train. My husband passed in 2014 and it was a no brainer to request that she help me sale my house. This process was extremely difficult at times however, Denise and her husband Don were always there to console me and offer their assistance beyond measure. They always lifted my spirits and made me feel that everything would work out. Denise exemplified professionalism in dealing with contractors, the buyer's realtor, documents and contracts and with me. She went with me shopping to stage the house, made numerous suggestions, hung draperies, arranged furniture and planted flowers. She always had my best interest at heart as I have health issues. Denise was my husband's friend but now she is my friend and I thank her for all of her patience with me. 2015
Each day I worried but I was told to breathe.. I did exactly what she told me to do! Every step of the way she was there helping me understand and reassuring that things were fine,and she was certainly my voice! I felt she knew exactly what I wanted before I said it! Certainly an asset to the century 21 team! I am pleased to have worked with her! I couldn't have made it this far without her great compassionate customer service! 2015
My first time buying a home, first home I picked she told me this is it and said she can get me a great deal at first I was sure but when I seen her worked she did it wow my best freind wants her to get her a home. 2015
It was not like I picked from a group of possible brokers. She was attentive so I kept looking at the houses she showed me and that was enough to fill my time available to look.
It was an all-around good experience working with Denise. She had the knowledge, persistence and devotion to keep the process going and get me a house! We lost the first house due to a seller that backed out. But she kept showing houses and got one I wanted and bought! 2015
