Nicole Derleth

With a passion for helping clients build wealth through real estate, Nicole Derleth specializes in the sale of income-producing and multi-unit properties throughout Dana Point and the surrounding coastal communities. As both a licensed REALTOR® and property manager, she offers a unique perspective on buying, selling, and maximizing the long-term value of investment properties.

Nicole's expertise extends beyond sales — she actively manages residential properties in Dana Point, San Clemente, and Laguna Beach, giving her firsthand knowledge of rental markets, tenant expectations, and the day-to-day realities of owning investment real estate. Whether you're a seasoned investor completing a 1031 exchange or purchasing your first income property, Nicole provides strategic guidance backed by real-world experience.

Before transitioning into real estate, Nicole dedicated 18 years to public education as an elementary school teacher and speech-language pathologist — years that shaped the patient, detail-oriented, service-driven approach she's built her business on.
