Inspection & Repairs

This is another important step in both the home buying and home selling process. During this phase buyers may choose to have several different types of inspections performed. It’s important for buyers to do their due diligence once under contract to purchase a home. At times, a homeowner might decide to have a home inspection completed before listing the home for sale.

If you need help in finding a reliable home inspector, no worries. I am happy to provide you with several names of home inspector professionals.

My wife and I can full heartedly recommend Denise as a warm, welcoming, professional Realtor. We felt that Denise Yeo always went the extra mile to meet our needs. We bought our home in a seller’s market, and with very specific time constraints. She always made time for us, was very knowledgeable of the market and the area, and we felt she had our family’s best attentions at heart. If you need a Realtor in Knoxville, TN we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her, in fact we have already told friends about her and the Ferguson Company.

Jason & Paulette G

We have used Denise Yeo as our realtor for purchasing and selling. She did an amazing job on both sides. When purchasing she spent so much time trying to help us find the perfect home. We drug her to so many houses and she did not ever get upset that once again we saw a House and said no again. She listens to what you want and really cares about finding you the home you truly want. She also cares about helping you Sell your home for what it is worth. She is very knowledgeable in the industry and of Knoxville in general. I would recommend Denise to anyone in Knox looking to buy or sell, you will not be disappointed!

Ryan & Abbi C

We had the pleasure of being paired with Denise Yeo as our realtor through the relocation company for our work. We were moving from Florida to Tennessee. From the very first phone call, Denise was excited and very helpful to assist us in our big move. We first decided to rent a townhome, and during our relocation trip Denise spent the entire day showing us around Knoxville. She personally took us to several apartment rentals that she thought would match our interests as well as home rentals. We stayed in touch and within our first month of living in Tennessee, we had already started looking to purchase a home. Denise ensured that we were comfortable with our decision by showing us around some of the most popular and thriving neighborhoods in and around Knoxville. She was always ready to assist us in viewing homes, and sent us new listings daily. Once we decided on a home, the process was seamless and wonderful. We went with her recommended lender and insurance specialist. Every step of the way was as easy and smooth as it could be. We are so thankful for her assistance and help from the very beginning, and would recommend her to any home buyer around.

Caleb & Haley G

We recently worked with Denise Yeo while buying a house and it was a very good experience! She even came up with some houses for us to look at that were not even on the market with her connections. She was very pleasant to work with and has a very caring heart. We were moving from out of town and she was very accommodating and really wanted us to find just the right home for us! I would definitely recommend her to any of our friends.”

Erin & Steven W

Denise was absolutely amazing to work with on the closing of our new home. My husband and I recently moved back to the area after 10 years. Denise spent so much time helping us to get familiar with the area so we could decide where we wanted to purchase. She would drop at a hat to talk to us and take us to see a house. She was very patient, helpful, and kind. She made sure we did not settle on anything less then what we really wanted. She will go the extra mile for you more than any real estate agent has for us in the past. She truly cares about her clients and wants to see them happy.”

Abbi & Ryan C

If you are looking for a REALTOR that listens and is responsive to your buying needs, look no future. Denise Yeo came through for my husband and I when we relocated from Indiana to TN. She assisted us in finding a rental until we were ready to buy our forever home. Her knowledge in real estate is by far the best I’ve experienced. Anytime we had a question or concern, day or night, she would try her best to get answers. Denise works very hard for her clients. I once asked her if she ever sleeps (lol). She indeed helped us buy our forever home and we couldn’t be happier. I would recommend Denise Yeo and the Ferguson Company to anyone looking for a home.

Howard & Penny E

Denise was my realtor during a very competitive buying market. At the time, I was living out of state, which posed some additional challenges. However, Denise was dedicated to overcoming this distance by showing me countless homes via live video conference. Ultimately, she proved to be an invaluable advocate for me, a first-time homeowner and I am forever grateful for her guidance, kindness, patience, and masterful realty skills. She did everything in her power to convey all aspects of every showing and answer all my questions. For example, she did not hesitate to talk to neighbors; inquire about structural and plumbing issues; enter into crawl spaces and attics to further investigate; knock on flooring, cabinetry, and doors to determine material integrity; walk the exterior to examine landscape, grading, and water concerns; point out cracks and other imperfections; and relay questions to selling agents, all on my behalf. Furthermore, being native to Knoxville, Denise was extremely helpful in providing information about each potential future neighborhood’s positive and negative attributes. Overall, she went above and beyond her realtor duties and always had my best interests in mind, while maintaining confidentiality, professionalism, and an optimistic attitude. She was quite responsive and always “on call” or just a text message away; she would promptly schedule showings and often recommend properties before they even hit the market! The house search ended with me finding a beautiful and perfect-for-me home in a quiet, safe neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Because of my positive house purchasing experience and her commitment to finding the right home for me, I highly recommend Denise as a realtor for those looking to purchase a home in the Knoxville area.

We had a great experience finding our new home with Denise Yeo. She was always willing to view a home that popped up even on little notice. We were thankful for Denise’s expertise and easy-going personality, especially in this tough market. She listened to our feedback on the homes and always offered sound advice. We couldn’t recommend her more for a great home buying experience!

John & Deanna M

Denise, THANK YOU so much for your time and expertise this past weekend! We’re thrilled that Lot 4 is ours and look forward to building in a couple of years.

Bob & Amy M

Denise is an amazing realtor. My husband and I decided we were ready to take on the adventure of house hunting. We started in October of 2021, and ended up in our dream home 2 days before Christmas. Our one hope was to be in our new home before Christmas, and it would not have been possible without Denise! We decided to house hunt in the midst of houses flying off the shelves, but Denise was up for the challenge. She listened to everything that we wanted, and I’m sure we visited about 20 houses before we found the one. Denise was patient, kind, and understanding throughout the whole process. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor.

Austin & Daphne C

Denise started as our realtor but quickly became our great friend. She went above and beyond in providing knowledge, wisdom, and advice. She does not want you to buy just any home, and will not push you to settle for anything less than what you absolutely want. We saw countless homes and reached out to Denise at all hours and days. Her responsiveness is far above expectations and her desire to find you your dream home is unmatched. Our search for a home has been in the middle of one of the most intense markets in history, favoring the sellers. As first-time home buyers, it was hard to compete, but Denise had a solution for that. She took it upon herself to contact homeowners for off market listings, and ultimately that is why my wife and I are in our dream home, at an extremely competitive price, in the location that is better than any on market listing we had seen. We owe all our gratitude and the future of our lives in our new home to her perseverance and passion for her clients and her job. For anyone looking, Denise is the best of the best. She will love you like family and fight for you just the same!

Austin & Abbey B

Denise Yeo was an integral part of our smooth and successful transition during our relocation process from Indiana to Tennessee. She went above and beyond locating us our new home in Knoxville. Denise spent time to get to know us, the specific features we felt were most important, and was determined to find it! Not afraid to be unconventional, Denise guided us with her professionalism, authenticity, and perseverance. We would most certainly recommend Denise to those buying or selling a home.

Chuck & Kelly B

We could not have had a better experience working with Denise when we bought our home in Knoxville! From day one, Denise was attentive to our long list of wants and made us feel comfortable and confident throughout our search. Being unfamiliar with the area, Denise was able to answer all of our questions regarding location, value, schools and neighborhood specifics. She helped us tremendously not only with the home search but also with the process of closing and I am really not sure that we would have ended up in the right home for us, without her! If you are ready to buy or sell a home, we highly recommend you work with Denise!

Nick & Katie S

It is my wife and I’s pleasure to give Denise our most robust recommendation. We had a very complicated real estate situation, as we were relocating from California. Denise provided amazing assistance in screening homes in person, on our behalf. When we felt one was particularly interesting, she even put together a live video feed for us to view the home in real time. Though we had many hurdles to overcome, with concurrently selling our home in California, Denise, remained upbeat and very professional throughout. It was our lucky day when we found Denise to be our eyes and ears in Tennessee. She is the best!

David & Cathy D

Keith & Rhonda M

Denise offered a personal touch for our real estate purchase. I was coming in from out of town on short notice to see homes and Denise was ALWAYS understanding and did her best to accommodate our needs. It took some time to find exactly what we needed to suit our family and Denise was in it for the long haul with no complaint and only encouraged us to keep looking and not to settle. We are forever grateful for Denise and her persistence in helping us find our perfect home.

Dylan & Hannah j

We bought our first house with Denise. She exceeded all of our expectations. She made the process go as smoothly as possible. You can easily tell she has years of experience. She never turned down any silly questions or concerns we had throughout the whole experience. She will be the first person I refer to anyone looking for a Realtor!

Scott & Lisa S

I can't say enough good things about Denise's abilities as both a buyer's and seller's Realtor! Her expertise, helpfulness and responsiveness when we purchased our new home and especially when we sold our other home, was outstanding. She is a very professional Realtor, yet extremely caring and thoughtful, and you couldn't go wrong using her on either side of a transaction.
