This group of real estate professionals honors the heritage of the founders, Colbert Coldwell and Arthur Banker, who started their company at 24 and 28 years old, respectively.</p> <p>“As we celebrate this year’s winners, I am reminded of how powerful, influential and dedicated the Coldwell Banker network is,” said Liz Gehringer, president and CEO of Anywhere Franchise Brands, acting president of Coldwell Banker Affiliate Business and COO of Coldwell Banker Real Estate. “These real estate professionals have made an impact in their community and still have so much road ahead of them to continue to innovate and grow. Their commitment to serving their clients, expanding their business and continuing to excel in the industry is recognized by many. I am eager to see how they continue to go above and beyond for clients seeking their dream home and how they will serve as a shining light for others within the Coldwell Banker network as they progress in their careers.”</p> <p>Born and raised in Gilroy, Essary became involved in the South Bay community at a young age through family members in real estate, according to Coldwell Banker. </p> <p>“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,” Coldwell Banker stated on its website.”</p> <div class="sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled"> <div class="robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing"> <h3 class="sd-title">Share this:</h3> <div class="sd-content"> <ul> <li class="share-twitter"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-twitter-204140989" class="share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text" href="https://southvalley.com/30-under-30/?share=twitter" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Twitter"><span></span><span class="sharing-screen-reader-text">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)</span></a></li> <li class="share-facebook"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-facebook-204140989" class="share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text" href="https://southvalley.com/30-under-30/?share=facebook" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Facebook"><span></span><span class="sharing-screen-reader-text">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)</span></a></li> <li class="share-end"></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div id='jp-relatedposts' class='jp-relatedposts' > <h3 class="jp-relatedposts-headline"><em>Related</em></h3> </div> </div> <div id="text-7" class="sb-widget posts-2 widget_text"> <div class="textwidget"></div> </div></article> </div> <aside class="sidebar sb-right"> <div id="custom_html-2" class="widget_text sb-widget widget_custom_html"><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><h3>Support Local Journalism</h3> <a href="https://southvalley.donorsupport.co/page/FUNLTXLVSBF"><img src="https://i1.wp.com/southvalley.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/contribute.jpg?ssl=1" alt="Contribute" data-recalc-dims="1"/></a></div></div><div id="text-19" class="sb-widget widget_text"> <div class="textwidget"><p><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/stacks/4dfb9f6638694d06945fedc4b3af58fd" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img class="alignleft wp-image-204140938 size-thumbnail" src="https://i1.wp.com/southvalley.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/south-valley-real-estate-cover.jpg?resize=150%2C150&ssl=1" alt="south valley real estate 2023 e-edition" width="150" height="150" data-recalc-dims="1" /></a><b></b></p> <h3></h3> <h3>This Month’s Issue</h3> <p><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/stacks/4dfb9f6638694d06945fedc4b3af58fd">South Valley Magazine</a></p> <h3></h3> <p> </p> <p> </p> <h3>Special Issues</h3> <ul> <li><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/stacks/32eabebf8b9e499ab51e6b4795c96379">50 Up</a></li> <li><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/stacks/a27e070660c74e44af2ccc3cbbcc9a9b">Explore – South Bay</a></li> <li><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/docs/svm1934">Gavilan Centennial</a></li> <li><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/stacks/3c9e74045c5a44f692d0911e2c85fc4d">Home & Garden</a></li> <li><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/stacks/e5e6f83739bd44e987e01fb56ac93459">Health & Well Being</a></li> <li><a href="https://issuu.com/metrosiliconvalley/docs/south_valley_real_estate_magazine_2023" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Real Estate</a></li> </ul> </div> </div></aside></div> <footer class="footer clearfix"> <div class="col-1-3 footer-widget-area"> <div id="text-11" class="footer-widget footer-3 widget_text"> <div class="textwidget"></div> </div> </div> </footer> <div class="copyright-wrap"> <p class="copyright">South Valley magazine is home delivered to residences in Morgan Hill, Gilroy and San Martin every month.
