About

After graduating from Ball State University with a double finance degree (Corporate Finance and Real Estate), Derek worked as a stockbroker for 6 years and founded and sold three companies prior to his career in real estate. The Gutting Group was established in 2000 and has since grown to be ranked within the top 1% of all Indianapolis area real estate agents. His passion for the real estate business includes helping his team of agents become the best real estate practitioners in the country, representing their clients with the highest level of representation as well as being heavily involved with real estate investments. Derek has personally been investing in real estate including single family and condo rentals (both long term and short term) in Indiana and Florida, lease to own’s, airbnb’s and rehabbing and selling. Helping his clients with their investment needs couples both his passions (real estate and numbers). When Derek isn’t running his real estate business, he is spending time with his two boys, traveling, exercising outdoors (walk, run or hiking), golfing, skiing, bowling, being with friends and reading books or listening to podcasts on how to continually improve and live his best life.
