dberardesco@biggsrealty.com
My family relocated to McKinney, Texas from New Jersey in 2016. We also relocated to New Jersey (where we lived for five years) from California in 2011. I understand the challenges first--hand involved in cross-country relocations and the importance of establishing the family in the community. We were attracted to Collin County because of the school districts, sports, outdoor activities and entertainment options with a close proximity to Dallas.
My prior real estate experience in Southern California and New Jersey has provided me a broad knowledge of other markets. I have also managed rental properties for the past ten years and understand how to effectively find quality tenants for a profitable return on investment.
Previously, my success as a District Sales Manager was due to quality customer service, effective business negotiations, strong communication and quick understanding of new markets. My dedication and strong work ethics earned me consistent accolades including “District Sales Manager” of the year.
Working for Biggs Realty has been a great fit for me. I am pleased to work for a company whose commitment to customer satisfaction (clients, customers and agents) far exceeds expectations. Biggs Realty has vision and thrives on innovation to support agents by streamlining processes to improve our quality of life with family.
I look forward to helping you navigate through any future real estate needs (buying, selling, investments or rentals) utilizing my established work history, real estate background and Biggs’ Realty commitment to innovation and customer services.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I’m here to help you with any real estate needs you may have.

Testimonials
I have worked with Cathy on several occasions and she is a true professional. She puts in time to make sure that the house is prepared to be sold and stands out from the rest. I look forward to working with Cathy again and would recommend her to all of my friend and family.
by Chad HatcherCathy has been cheerful and willing throughout this whole process. She is so knowledgeable about all the options available to us. Her recommendations on preparing our home for showing helped it sell in three days! Be sure to get her recommendations when you need work done. She made a stressful process as simple as possible. Thanks you Cathy!!
by IndalitaWorking with Cathy has been a real pleasure, she has a great personality, is always trying to help and nothing is ever too much trouble for her. She clearly knows the housing market and is very comfortable with the entire buying/selling process. She is extremely quick to answer any questions and goes far beyond the service provided by other realtors that I have used in the past. I would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. You wont go wrong using Cathy.
by Gary WaughWorking with Cathy was a great experience! She sold our home very quickly and helped us find and purchase our next home. She always kept us informed of everything that was going on, and was prompt to respond to emails and phone calls. She is very friendly and professional which makes the buying/selling process simple and much more enjoyable!
by Ashley PateMust say..... Cathy is the BEST ... no doubts in our minds. Absolutely NOOOO doubts!! She undertook a highly challenging "sales quest" with our over-sized and over-priced home during the time of year that sales are consistently non-enviable. She out-performed her co-workers... fast, smooth, intelligent, savvy, and tireless... with her efforts our sales price was accepted at well above the "going prices" of the then appraisals. Significantly higher... not that those sales prices are ever-present, but the facts are that Cathy worked her "magic" (long, dedicated hours of "elbow grease" and wizened experience in financial adaptations, real estate marketing, and positive high-energy efforts... with a smile!!) That's her definition of sales-magic. Success speaks for itself. Cogent question: would we hire Cathy again? Well, does a bear...... you know the rest!! When our time comes again to deal in the real estate market, we will trek directly to Cathy Bailey... with no hesitation. She's not just good... like I previously stated, she's the best. A trustworthy rarity in our business world. This was our 35th full household move, so we've dealt with many, many realtors and similar land agents. So when I aggressively rate Cathy as the "BEST", there's no quotient of "sweet bull" therein. It's a fact... Sincerely offered... Dick Thompson, former Fighter Pilot, Colonel USAF.
by Dick ThompsonIf you want an agent that truly works FOR YOU, Cathy Bailey is the right choice! From start to finish, she is the one you will be dealing with. You will not be handed over to an assistant after the contract is signed. Every detail is a priority with Cathy! Pictures, presentation, advertising, communications, negotiating and closing.......nothing is overlooked and ALL attended to by Cathy! Cathy is one of the hardest working realtors I have ever met. She brings honesty, integrity, kindness and heart to every listing or sell! My best decision of 2017 was listing and selling my home with Cathy Bailey! A Major Success!
by Tara WallesenCathy is amazing! she worked quickly and so efficiently on our recent purchase of a home in Grapevine. We were not really looking, and happened upon a property we just couldn't pass up. Cathy helped us get a great price, worked though the many contract challenges thrown our way, and helped us close in 10 days! She pays attention to every single detail, ensuring that you will find the property of your dreams!
by Scott WhiteI've known Cathy for 20+ years; she is an amazing person and Realtor. She is on the ball with sending new listings and flexible with arranging showings. She advocated for us when the home appraisal didn't go our way and successfully negotiated a sales price. I don't think I can compliment her enough!
by Lauren GilbertOur experience with Derick was our best yet and we have moved many, many times. There was not much inventory in the area where we wanted to live, and we complicated it by having some requirements that were not that easy to find. We had to move quickly with each new listing and he gave us good advice to get the contract. Derick was very easy to work with and has a calming and reassuring manner along with his wealth of experience and knowledge. He also provided top notch contacts after we closed for updates on the house. We highly recommend him!
by Karen E.Beau and his team went above and beyond to help my family find our new apartment home! If you’re in the market, use The Apartment Saver! You won’t be disappointed. My move was made seamless with the help of their free concierge services as well. Highly Recommend this guy and his team!
by Stephanie Mott"Colleen Howell is AMAZING! This was our first home and she walked us through the process step by step. Colleen made everything so easy. Words cannot express how grateful we are for what she did for us. I HIGHLY recommend using her as your agent!"
