Darren Ricketts is the Team Leader for the Ricketts Group, a eXp Realty team based in Eugene, Oregon. Darren is a Realtor® because he loves houses and the many opportunities they bring. A native to the area, he applied his background as a finish carpenter to begin flipping houses with an investment partner. As the need eventually arose, he went on to learning real estate agency. Darren found that selling real estate truly called to him, so in 2011 he became a licensed real estate broker to transition from his Information Technology career to selling houses full time. Now, along with selling real estate, he enriches and leads those around him by:
- Teaching First Time Home Buyer and First Time Investor Classes through DevNW
- Serving on the board Habitat for Humanity
Darren is a world traveler and has been to 8 countries including Bolivia, Kenya and Egypt. Darren has participated in various cycling events throughout the northwest, including Cycle Oregon and the Seattle to Portland Bicycle Classic. Although Darren’s IT days are long behind him, he will always be a true nerd at heart; in his free time he still enjoys educating (read: mercilessly beating) his two daughters and their friends on the nuances of games like Magic: the Gathering.
