Who is

Derek De Ville

Derek’s journey began in Temecula, where he faced hardship early in life after losing his father. His family endured financial struggles, losing their home and business, and relocated to the High Desert. Derek’s mother worked tirelessly, and Derek, as the oldest, began working to help support his family. These challenges shaped his mental toughness and fueled his desire to succeed and help others.  

Derek’s hard work quickly led him to the top, becoming the #1 agent in his office, the High Desert, and later Southern California for CENTURY 21. He reached the top 1% of agents nationwide, selling 100+ properties a year for 13 years straight. In 2019, Derek built a real estate team that became the #1 team in the High Desert within a year. By 2020, he became co-owner of Realty ONE Group Empire, growing the company from 40 to 200+ agents.  

Despite his success and numerous awards, Derek’s proudest achievement is helping people. As a family man, community contributor, and leader, Derek remains committed to his core values of faith, family, and service. He’s also an avid outdoorsman who loves hunting, hiking, snowboarding, and all things outdoors in God’s playground.
