Stuart Deane Challenges Buyers and Sellers to Redefine Real Estate Success

Arlington, Texas Nov 9, 2025  – Amidst a real estate market characterized by rapid transactions, high volume, and intense competition, Stuart Deane, an Arlington-based Realtor and brokerage owner, is calling on North Texas homebuyers, sellers, and agents to adopt a more measured approach. He emphasizes focusing on the genuine markers of real estate success: transparency, reliability, and sustained assurance.

Deane, who is the founder and team leader at TDT Realtors, has dedicated more than ten years to assisting clients through what is often one of the most emotionally charged financial choices they will make. However, his distinction lies not in the quantity of homes he moves, but rather in his distinctive method of doing so.

“My purpose isn’t to persuade you to purchase something unnecessary,” Deane states. “Instead, I aim to assist you in discovering what truly aligns with your lifestyle. That is my fundamental role.”

Given that 39% of American homebuyers express remorse following a property acquisition (Zillow, 2023), and more than 40% admit to being unclear about the procedure, Deane contends that the root of the issue is the industry’s definition of success.

“Real estate agents are typically instructed to finalize deals quickly and maintain constant momentum,” he elaborates. “Yet, this intense drive often results in cutting corners, such as hurried inspections, inadequate communication, and overlooked warning signs. This approach does not equate to success; it introduces hazards.”

Deane’s dedication to prioritizing clients stems from his personal journey as a homebuyer, his history in sports, and the initial period of establishing his brokerage with his wife and business associate, Elizabeth Deane.

“Upon founding TDT Realtors, our ambition was to create a distinct model,” he stated. “We sought to eliminate pre-written dialogues and client transfers, opting instead for straightforward advice and transparent interaction. This level of service is what every buyer, seller, or investor is entitled to.”

At TDT, the team places a greater emphasis on client education than on expediting transactions, maintaining that the process should be directed by each client’s specific timeframe, financial plan, and key objectives, rather than being swayed by market demands.

A Change Agents Can Initiate—And Buyers Are Entitled To Request

Deane is currently urging not only his clientele but also other real estate practitioners throughout Texas to re-evaluate their criteria for success within the industry.

“Should your clients perceive themselves as hurried, bewildered, or lacking assistance, the speed of your transaction becomes irrelevant,” he asserts. “Our objective ought to be superior results, rather than merely quicker ones.”

He is also prompting buyers and sellers to actively participate by:

• Posing additional inquiries during property listings or viewing sessions
• Halting the process if any aspect seems incorrect or hurried
• Selecting agents who prioritize client service and informing them, rather than solely focusing on sales figures

“When clients are better informed and more assured, the outcomes are superior,” Deane further comments. “The real estate sector requires less coercion and more transparency.”
