Is it time to sell your home?

Let’s connect!

It is our pleasure and honor to recommend Denise Yeo as your next realtor if you are wanting someone that will go the extra mile in meeting your personal needs. We were highly impressed in the way she handled tough situations and still kept an upbeat attitude. Not only does she possess strong communication skills, she has the ability to maintain a positive relationship with all that are involved. There are no words to express our gratitude when she helped pack boxes and organized our move to the new home. We feel so blessed that Denise was involved in both the sale of our old home and the purchase of our new one. Thank you, Denise! We could not have done this without your commitment and dedication to serve with excellence. Don & Terry J I truly enjoyed getting to know Denise while working with her (actually she did all of the work) to sell our condo. A mutual friend had introduced us a few weeks prior and when I learned that she was a realtor, I just on a whim asked her if she would like to try to sell our condo on the lake. My husband recently had to be placed in a nursing home due to advanced Alzheimer’s and I didn’t think I would be using the condo very much, if at all, in the future. From the very first Denise was very thorough and professional. In no time at all she had taken pictures, got it listed, and began receiving calls. Within a matter of days, we had a contract. That’s when I had to get serious about getting all of our things moved out. I was surprised when Denise began helping me clean out, pack up, and move things to my home. From there everything went very smoothly until and through the closing. Buyers and sellers (me) were very happy with the entire process. In addition to getting the condo sold without any problems, I have found a new, wonderful friend whom I would definitely recommend to anyone with a property to sell.” Joan L 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 Dorothy and I would like to thank you, Denise, for representing us during the sale of our property in Tennessee. Your knowledge and professionalism were extremely helpful in getting the property listed and finding a buyer in a short amount of time. Your follow up, diligence and attention to our listing and post-closing got us the results we were looking for. We would highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a real-estate professional. Rick & Dorothy H After talking to close friends and family members for months, people's opinions I valued, I decided to lick my wounds and just take what I could get for my "bachelor pad" of a house. Maybe I'd walk away with a little cash. Well, I decided to get a second opinion. I called Denise, a longtime friend ... She came over, took a look around and made it 'perfectly clear' ... I had a very nice house. With some elbow grease and modifications from some dear friends, I sold the house for what it was actually worth, way more than I ever thought! Thanks Denise Yeo! You went above and beyond my expectations! Paul S Recently we sold our house through The Ferguson Company with Denise Yeo. She did a remarkable job in getting our information from the start. She asked great questions, and talked us through the steps of what to expect. Denise was easy to talk with, and responded to questions and queries throughout the process with a sense of urgency of which I appreciated. If you're looking to sell or buy a home, I would highly recommend both Denise and The Ferguson Company. They did right by me and my family. Mark & Shelly S 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 is a very hard-working person. From start to finish she was very responsive, kind, positive, reassuring and a constant professional. She has extensive knowledge of the local market and knows how to follow up and convince potential buyer or seller. Denise took professional pictures to showcase our home online which created much more foot traffic. I highly recommend her as a real estate agent. SUDHIR P 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 When you enlist Denise Yeo in selling your home, you have made the right choice! Denise simply gets the job done. I was amazed how quickly she put me together with a buyer. And she found just the very best folks to buy my condo. She was always positive and reassuring throughout the process and was very responsive to all my questions. Denise was just so easy to work with and I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling their home. Sherrie S 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 made me feel very confident and comfortable listing my home with her. She is very knowledgeable about the market. Her open line of communication put me at ease during the entire process. She made sure I was kept informed throughout the selling process. Excellent service Melissa W 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. Samantha S We have been very blessed to have had Denise handle the sale of our property in the scenic Marble Bluff development in Kingston, Tennessee. We were quite comfortable from start to finish with Denise’s expertise. Her knowledge of the area and local market was an asset in locating a buyer and executing our sale. We appreciated that Denise kept us timely informed of all progress and factors involved in our out-of-state transaction. She is professional, thorough, likable, and easy to work with, keeping our best interests in mind throughout this process. We highly recommend Denise Yeo to every buyer/seller. Tom & Peg H 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 My wife and I were very impressed with Denise Yeo. Throughout the entire process she was very professional and provided expert advice. Everything went very smooth thanks to Denise and the selling of our property was quick and painless. We would highly recommend Denise to anyone looking to sell their property. Thank you verry much Denise for all you have done for us. Mark & Cindy T 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 We had a great experience working with Denise on the sale of our property. She was one of the agents recommended to us by our relocation company. After the interviews, we decided to work with her. Our decision was in large part based on our impression of her preparation for the interview. She came prepared with a good analysis of the real estate market in the neighborhood. We found her demeanor to be professional yet cordial—very personable. She was always on time to our meetings, and always responsive to our questions. She made great arrangements for the property photos. But most importantly, for us, she went above and beyond being a real estate agent, and attended to our requests when we were away. We could not be happier with the services we received. We absolutely recommend Denise to anyone who’d like a reliable sales partner in this stressful transaction. Bob & Mary S 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 The connection I felt to Denise Yeo was immediate. She is both a consummate professional and a generous and easygoing spirit who made a sudden and difficult transition in our lives so much easier. My husband relocated for work and we needed to sell our home without having planned to do so. Simultaneously, I was dealing with a bit of a health crisis. Denise came to us through my Husband's relocation program and we were thrilled with her from the start. Denise valued our home and our time as she would her own and was sensitive to the complexities of the transition and its impact on our life. The rapport we had with Denise was a lifeline during the process and it was apparent that she was working hard on our behalf behind the scenes the whole time. Denise is an excellent communicator and we always felt completely informed. She has so much experience to share and we definitely relied on her knowledgeable input throughout the process. My husband and I are grateful beyond words for Denise's work as our realtor and we would highly recommend her to anyone considering selling or buying a home Matthew & Sarah J 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 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 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 When it was time to sell our home, we asked a realtor friend of ours to connect us with someone we could trust, and Denise was that person. Even with such a glowing recommendation to us, Denise surpassed our expectations! Her amiable personality, strong work ethic, and — 100% necessary-to-mention — excellent photography skills, had our house sold after 1 day of showings. Some would say that’s unbelievable, but after meeting and working with Denise, we’re not surprised at all! She is DEFINITELY the realtor we will recommend to friends and family! Joey & Lindsey M 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 Denise helped us sell our home of forty-six years within two days at more than the listed price. She then worked tirelessly to help us find a condo within a short period of time. During the process she was very thorough in explaining all the details of both transactions. We would highly recommend her as a real estate agent. We now consider her as a very good friend. Dan & Sue B 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 Denise made our home selling process easy and smooth! Her guidance and help was very much appreciated. We will definitely refer family and friends to Denise in the future. Denise was excellent. She was knowledgeable, helpful and made this process incredibly easy. We cannot say enough great things about her! Thanks for everything!” Don and Ruby J 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. Keith & Rhonda M “My experience with Denise Yeo at Ferguson Realtors is nothing but exceptional. Denise came to my home and took the normal tour of the property. We talked for quite a while about the house and Denise was getting to know more about me. Denise is a people person and this is obvious from the moment you meet her. Over the next few weeks, she guided me through all of the hurdles that I was about to face. I am a recent widower that was not prepared for the extensive amount of work that was ahead for packing, cleaning, repairing and moving my belonging 850 miles to another state. I was very overwhelmed by this daunting task. Denise continually reassured me, helped in making necessary decisions regarding the sale as well as investing her own personal time getting her hands dirty by physically helping where needed as well as tapping into per personal little black book of church groups, engineers, electricians, plumbers, cleaning services, etc. I have never known anyone that will go to such effort and caring into helping you sell your home and move on to your next chapter. Denise is an exceptional person and if you have her working for you to sell your home, you have the very best on your side. I cannot praise her enough for how far above and beyond she went for me. Thank you, Denise Yeo, for your work ethic and professionalism.” Don B 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! Dylan & Hannah j Denise is an excellent real estate agent, and we are so happy to have worked with her to sell our Knoxville home! Denise’s vast knowledge of the real estate market and intuitive grasp of buyer trends made it possible for us to sell our house at a price far beyond what we initially thought was possible. Her dedication and commitment to making the sale a success were truly remarkable.

Throughout the entire process, Denise maintained incredible responsiveness, always available to address any concerns or questions we had. This exemplary level of communication made us feel not just as clients, but valued individuals with unique needs and expectations.

If you are looking for someone who will exceed your expectations in every way, look no further than Denise Yeo! Nick & Summer F what my clients say Client testimonials
