- Delivering His Promise -

Derek brings his clients extensive knowledge of the local area—particularly the Tauranga residential market—having lived in Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty for over 40 years. His energy and commitment are inspiring, while his professionalism, confidence, and deep market insight make him a highly valued advisor. Derek’s calm and informative communication style is appreciated by both vendors and purchasers alike.

With a strong background in business, Derek has developed excellent negotiation skills, consistently achieving the best possible outcomes for his clients. Delivering his promise is more than a motto—it’s an approach he brings to every transaction.

Outside of real estate, Derek has long pursued a balanced lifestyle, with a passion for sports, especially fishing and fitness. As a former trainer of competitive bodybuilders, he values the discipline and mental focus the sport requires. Fishing, on the other hand, offers a welcome escape and a chance to enjoy the natural bounty of the sea.

Derek and his wife, Pat, have been deeply involved in the Tauranga Coastguard. Derek served as a rescue crew member, while Pat was a radio operator for over two decades. In recognition of her 22 years of service, Pat was awarded the Queen’s Service Medal in 2019.

For the past twelve years, Derek has also served as a Small Business Advisor with the Tauranga Business Chamber, helping local businesses grow and thrive. Now in his ninth year in real estate, he still gets a buzz from working with clients and building trusted relationships every day.

Janet, Christopher, Te Puna

"Our first contact with Derek Roser was at an open home. We were impressed with the warmth of the welcome and depth of information given on the property. As our interest in a property grew, Derek offered any additional help we might need and gave us an invaluable tutorial on the art of buying at auction. Together with his calm, open style and support, this was instrumental in helping us to relax and gave us increased confidence when auction day arrived. The result was that we could bid successfully and achieve the property we so keenly desired. His genuine support did not end at the auction but continued through the period between the auction and settlement. If this is what Derek does for prospective buyers just imaging what he does for vendors! It has been a pleasure to get to know Derek and we recommend him unreservedly."
