#1 Agent at Coldwell Banker Realty Gilroy

Born and raised in Gilroy, Derek Essary became involved in the South Bay community at a young age through family members in real estate. Now a third-generation agent himself, Derek attributes his family's enduring passion and success to one core belief, passed down through generations: Working with a client is a long-term commitment.

Derek isn't here to make a quick buck and run - he offers his clients the highest level of service and invests in their real estate success for years to come. This outlook has helped him become one of the top-producing real estate agents in South County.

Unique marketing, advanced negotiation, and unparalleled customer service: That's #TheDerekDifference.

The Derek Difference

Don't put your property in the hands of an obsolete agent who is just going to list it on the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) and wait for activity. You need a Realtor who has fresh ideas and can apply modern marketing techniques to bring in top dollar on your property.

Unique Internet Marketing

Derek's years of Silicon Valley internet marketing experience allows him to market your property in creative ways which differentiate it from other homes. When it comes to marketing, the details are important. My marketing includes 3D tours, professional photography, drone footage, custom property websites, and much more.

Reviews

· "Derek Essary gave me helpful, professional advice and suggestions that had my family's home sold days after it was put onto the market. I've sold two other homes in the past using other realtors and never had the attention to details, guidance to find quality repair services, nor constant updates on the progress of repairs, paperwork needing my attention and his hands-on work inside my home. I can't say enough about how he made a stressful situation move smoothly and quickly. Derek is a wonderful realtor and I'd like to think of him as my friend now, too." – Bette Z.

· We love Derek! He is honest, diligent, hard-working, and knowledgeable… He was highly responsive and communicative throughout the process and always kept us up to date. He drove lots of interest in the house and ultimately got us multiple offers and sold it for well above the listing price!" – Drew M

· "Derek has been awesome to work with, both while looking at houses for sale and also in the closing process on the house he helped us find. Always quick to respond to emails and texts, and was there for us every step of the way. He has been very knowledgeable and professional and we couldn't have asked for a better agent to work with." – Alex B.

· "I have bought and sold houses with Derek three times. He is exceedingly professional and hard-working. His use of the Internet and social media is very impressive. Very honest and straightforward. I highly recommend him." – Ken M.
