Derek Grech

THE STORY

From the first day in 2011 when Derek TRANSITIONED into the REAL ESTATE business from his corporate business, his DREAM had always been to open his own BOUTIQUE LIKE ADVERTISING REAL ESTATE FIRM. A firm where strategic individuals or 'PARTNERS' with strong strategic business backgrounds would COLLABORATE to better each other and their clients. In the last 15 years, the SUCCESS has become an AMAZING REALITY, as clients have witnessed the CREATIVITY behind Derek's successful STRATEGIC MARKETING APPROACH -- A TRUE CORPORATE APPROACH to real estate or how Derek phrases it, 'FROM BOARDROOMS TO LIVING ROOMS'. This APPROACH is what DIFFERENTIATES him while STRIVING to have the best client service platform in the business. In Real Estate, Derek felt there was a GAP when it came to truly MARKETING A HOME. Driving AWARENESS of a home through the right strategic advertising channels – not simply relying on MLS and waiting for the phone to ring. Defining the TARGET MARKET, creating a STRATEGIC MARKETING PLAN SPECIFICALLY FOR YOUR HOME and going after BUYERS instead of waiting for buyers to call on properties. THAT HAS BEEN THE POINT of his brand over the past 15 years which has catapulted THE PARTNERS REAL ESTATE into RECORD SALES RESULTS all across Vancouver in the past 5 years.

INCREDIBLE SALES - RANKED #1

The DREAM of starting his own firm was IGNITED when after 10 solid years of hard work, creativity and a genuine love for the business, Derek had his BEST SALES PERFORMANCE YEAR selling more than $191 MILLION in 2020. After finishing number 1 at his old firm Angel Hasman & Associates, Derek felt it was the perfect time to LAUNCH what he had always envisioned -- REALTORS COLLECTIVELY WORKING TOGETHER EVERYDAY ON ALL MEDIA/ADVERTISING PLATFORMS TO BRING AWARENESS TO ALL LISTINGS AT THE FIRM -- the coporate thinking regarding Derek's strategic approach he labels 'Boardrooms to Living Rooms'. THIS APPROACH has truly made Derek's DREAM COME TRUE while making THE PARTNERS 'THE' TOP PERFORMING Real Estate Firm on the entire West Coast delivering this INNOVATIVE AND COLLABORATIVE APPROACH -- since launching and it now being 2026, The Partners Real Estate has definitely become the NUMBER 1 most innovative boutique approach in all of Greater Vancouver with an incredible sales record in these last years (September 2023-present) which has been the MOST INCREDIBLE SALES IN THE HISTORY OF VANCOUVER. 1611 DRUMMOND, Vancouver listed at $22 Million has been sold, 1416 Sandhurst in West Vancouver was the highest SOLD EVER off the water sale (on MLS HISTORY) on the entire North Shore at over $18 Million with GST.

BOUTIQUE. CREATIVITY. INNOVATION. SUCCESS.

We understand that every home has its own story. Our approach is MORE THAN CREATIVE, ensuring that each property is showcased in a way that highlights its unique characteristics and appeals to the right audience. In the case of 1611 DRUMMOND, we wanted to make a big splash by showcasing the quick distance from Downtown Vancouver to one of the most iconic locations in all of Canada – INDUSTRY LEADING VIDEO CONTENT gets incredible attention when it comes to social media awareness and engagement – MARKETING MATTERS!

At The Partners, we take a different approach from traditional real estate brokerages where a single agent typically manages the property video. At The Partners, every partner creates their own unique video tailored to your property -- which is then IS shared across their personal social media and network platforms. This means your listing is promoted on over 30 additional channels, significantly amplifying its exposure. With this strategy, each partner becomes a dedicated advocate for your property, giving you the combined EXPERTISE and FOCUS of our entire firm, all working together to get your home SOLD. Because At The Partners, MARKETING MATTERS.

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to our marketing approach. For a comprehensive strategy, give us a call DEREK at 604.833.4862
