Testimonials

“Core Realty has been working with the owner of Expert Claim Solutions since Superstorm Sandy, when our luxury apartment building in Northern Liberties, Philadelphia, suffered damage in 82 of 120 units. Our insurance adjuster was mishandling our claim and offering a ‘low-ball’ settlement. Mike DeRita took over the negotiations and in the end, we settled for over 10X the original figure. We have been his client ever since. In the last five years, Mike DeRita has handled several large losses for Core Realty, including an extremely complex multi-million dollar claim from an electrical transformer explosion in Pittsburgh, PA. Our company owns commercial real estate throughout PA and NJ, and whenever we have a problem, we call Mike DeRita. I've recommended Expert Claim Solutions to my associates in the commercial real estate field, as well as to friends and family.  Mike's knowledge, expertise, attention to detail, and tough negotiating skills are exactly what we need in a crisis, and he performs every time.”

“I have had the opportunity to work with Mike several times over the years in my capacity as a Realtor. He is always there to answer my calls and help my clients. In my business when we refer someone it is a direct reflection of us, and Mike is the only person I recommend when my clients suffer any damage or loss. He is trustworthy, diligent, and gets positive results! On two separate occasions when my clients’ homes had damage, Mike’s response time to the property was within minutes, ensuring proper remediation. He always goes above and beyond!”

“Unfortunately, the name Mike DeRita is synonymous with the words ‘Uh-Oh!!’ However, when something unexpected occurs and it feels like you're swimming upstream, here comes ‘The Daring DeRita’ to save the day! In all seriousness, Mike's professionalism and know-how coupled with years of experience makes him the silver lining to every disappointment. Hopefully in life, you won't need his services but if the time comes when you do, it's good to know he is on your team! As a real estate agent, I am asked often to recommend people to our clients. I used to have 3 public adjusters I would recommend. Now I only have one name in my phone, and that name is Mike DeRita.”

“After Hurricane Sandy, I decided that I would try to handle my insurance claim directly, mistakenly thinking that I could manage my own claim. After months of negotiations, I settled with my company for an amount that didn't even cover my repairs due to lack of knowledge of the claim process. A few years later, I had another loss at my house due to Superstorm Jonas and this time got smart and hired Michael DeRita to handle it. Mr. DeRita managed my insurance claim from start to finish, providing regular updates as the claim progressed. In the end, I was able to recover 100% of my loss without the worries and headache of handling it myself. His professionalism and persistence made the normally difficult process, quite easy.”
