About me
Derek comes from humble beginnings. Raised in the Temecula area until the 8th grade when he lost his father. After the loss of his father, his family lost their home, cars, their small family business failed, and they were left with nothing and homeless. Derek's mother moved them to the High Desert to live with her family. Derek's mom then worked 40 hours a week at a laundromat and 40 hours a week at a local video store as she went on to work 80 hours a week for years to come.
Derek was the new kid in High School, just lost his father, dirt poor and felt helpless watching his mother struggle to pay the bills. Derek started working multiple jobs right away and has never stopped.
Out of these struggles, Derek's mental toughness was developed. Combined with a burning desire to help people and be the best he can be, Derek quickly became #1 in his office, #1 in the High Desert, #1 in Southernmost California and then #21 in the Nation for Century 21! Derek personally sold 138 properties in 2018 and 1,000+ in the last 14 years! Derek is currently the Team Lead for the #1 Team in the High Desert "De Ville Core Agents Team" at Realty ONE Group Empire.
Derek has revolutionized the real estate industry with powerful systems and people that provide clients with an experience that has proven to be out of this world. Despite Derek achieving financial success, he is most proud of helping people. This includes his clients and the other great real estate professionals that he works with. Derek loves to hike, fish with his young son, be silly with his daughter and continues to "date" his wife.
Now, as a successful businessman and industry leader Derek has stayed true to his CORE values. Derek is first and foremost a family man, community contributor and a man that loves to serve people.

My parents lived there for 25 years and we loved going there to visit especially the snow season. They lived north of town 2nd house at the end before North side ski resort 2 1/2 acres with a view that you couldn’t put a price on.

My mother lives in the desert part next to wrightwood. I went hiking a few times a week, or would go study at the lake. I just hate the fires and road closures due to weather. My biggest con is being stuck on the freeway just to get down hill. Cute to visit I don't think I could live there long term. I do have to say, it's a beautiful small town and when I visit I enjoy it.

Thank you for sharing. Yes, traveling down and up the I-15 is becoming more and more of a pain.

@chiefknowstomuch Ай бұрын

Wrightwood is awesome! I have a half dozen friends that live up there, but I'll tell you.... I will never go up there in winter with out a 4x4 again! Because of all the "flatlanders" going up there for the new fallen snow (like me and my family) and us being in a 2 wheel drive we had to stay on the main highway. It took us a full 8 hours to get home to the San Gabriel Valley one time! With normal traffic, hour fifteen tops. With my 4x4 I could have cut that trip home down to 4 hours! 🤣

Hi! So nice to have found a video for Wrightwood. Would you need the California Fair Plan insurance for this area? I experienced when I was looking in Crestline and it’s about $2600-3000 a year plus the normal homeowners insurance that bank lenders require 😳😣

@DerekDeVille Жыл бұрын

Hi 👋🏻. Yes, there is required insurance for Wrightwood and almost all the mountain areas. If you would like details contact me and I'll put you in contact with my local insurance resource. Thanks for watching and think of me for all of your real estate needs. 😀

Hello. Wrightwood is at fire risk more than anything else as wildfires to threaten every year or every other year.

There was a great mudslide that blew thru wrightwood at one time. If you satellite image the area you can see the stained desert for miles down the high desert all the way past el mirage, pretty crazy.

Question...how often do you get snowed in? If it snows how soon after fall are the roads drivable? Do you think commuting to Glendora for school is unrealistic?

@DerekDeVille Жыл бұрын

Hi Betty. Thanks for watching! We do get snow and there may be a day that you can't get out until the roads clear. It's about 1-1 1/2 hour commute. Know that the Cajon pass does get shut down with accidents due to thick fog..etc but it's not on the regular. Does that make sense?
