Philosophy

Douglas Newby provides the finest personal representation and brings the greatest national exposure to the homes he offers. "When the owners of the most expensive properties are the best in their field, they appreciate the best realtor personally representing them, and this is what I do. I have never participated in the growing agent trend of passing off clients to team members in training. I give the greatest personal attention to the effort and bring the greatest national exposure to the property." - Douglas Newby



"A note of thanks for a most civilized experience ... our recent home sale was conducted with such efficiency, discretion, and geniality that we know that our buyers were as pleased with the ease of the sale/purchase process as we. Your marketing of our home with such sensitivity to the particular merits of our property and of our neighborhood led to a surplus of potential buyers at the end --- a very rewarding experience! In our 30 years of buying and selling homes in three states, never have we enjoyed such confidence in our realtor nor worried so little about the eventual successful outcome.

It is an additional satisfaction to know how well you have matched our beloved home with its new owners."

- James and Patricia Shinn


Douglas Newby & Associates enables all parties to accomplish, and often surpass, their goals by understanding the needs of both buyer and seller.


"We originally listed our home with a large real estate firm that had another house listed nearby. It was a big disappointment with virtually no activity. In frustration I also offered the house myself, since I am a broker. Finally after doing some research, I listed our home with Douglas Newby. He immediately executed a publicity campaign and held an open house that attracted several hundred people. There were numerous qualified buyers. Doug's special ability to negotiate and structure a complex deal in which everyone benefits is a major reason why we and the buyer were pleased with the result.

It was great to deal with Doug who viewed the sale and the client creatively instead of simply saying, 'It can't be done,' and going on to a less complex problem. The sale of our home and the way in which it was handled enabled us to depart from this great neighborhood in a way that added to our pleasurable memories."

- Commercial Real Estate Broker Donald Kerr

"I am not sure where to begin... Working with you to find our home was such fun! Your knowledge of the older home market is unmatched. We had a wonderful time with you. Please stay in touch. You have an open invitation to our home."

- Richard and Vickie Horres

First, let me thank you for selling my house. You did one of the most efficient jobs that I have ever heard of in real estate. Thanks a million. I hope the new owners enjoy the house as much as Lee and I did. Our life there was a glorious experience. Again, thanks for selling the house. I think it was one of the finest operations that I have ever witnessed.”
