Derrek Zietz

For Derrek, real estate is about more than property—it is about people, community, and the connections that make Seattle and the Eastside feel like home. As an agent with Coldwell Banker Bain – Mercer Island, he combines the global strength of a leading real estate brand with a personalized, thoughtful approach rooted in the Puget Sound communities he knows best.

Derrek’s clients appreciate his calm professionalism, clear communication, and genuine dedication to their goals. Whether guiding buyers to their ideal homes or helping sellers prepare their properties to shine, he approaches every step with strategy, care, and integrity. Clients looking to buy or sell in the upper tier value his data‑driven pricing, polished presentation, and discreet, concierge‑level service.

With an office that has served Mercer Island’s close‑knit, residential community for decades, Derrek understands how schools, commute, and neighborhood character shape each client’s decisions. From lakefront estates on Mercer Island, Medina, and Kirkland to architecturally significant homes in Madison Park, Capitol Hill, and Bellevue, he brings insight and enthusiasm to Seattle’s premier neighborhoods.

Beyond real estate, Derrek is deeply engaged in his community. He serves as a board member for local nonprofits such as Cancer Lifeline, is an active member of the Seattle 4 Rotary Club, and regularly participates in events that strengthen the city’s cultural and social fabric. When he is not meeting with clients, you will often find him sailing with friends on Lake Union, discovering new restaurants, savoring wine at his favorite Washington wineries, or taking in local art walks across Seattle’s neighborhoods.

It is this genuine connection—to both people and place—that drives Derrek’s work every day. Backed by Coldwell Banker Bain – Mercer Island’s collaborative culture, powerful network, and deep local roots, he is committed to helping his clients find not just a house, but a home and community where they truly belong.
