About Mandy Draper

Mandy Draper was born in Santa Cruz, California and has lived in Santa Cruz County all her life. Every home Mandy ever lived in as a child was built by her father, a local general contractor and designer. The sounds and smells of her father's jobsites - concrete, steel and sawdust - are some of her earliest childhood memories. Eventually Mandy worked alongside her father as a framer for his residential construction company. From these beginnings she developed a lifelong love for homes, architecture, quality construction and real estate. Her passion for construction would lead her to pursue a degree in Civil Engineering from San Jose State University where she graduated, summa cum laude, in 2009. After completing her studies Mandy went on to enjoy a successful career in construction management for a Silicon Valley construction company. She quickly rose to a Project Manager role where she specialized in tenant improvements for prominent Bay Area institutions including Google and Stanford University. After her daughter was born she took a position at a Santa Cruz-based geotechnical engineering firm so she could explore the design side of engineering and be closer to home. It was during this time that she began to transition into real estate by taking over the property management responsibilities for her family's thriving real estate business. Now a top-producing local agent specializing in residential sales, Mandy believes that she has found her true calling. Her passion for her community, and her desire to help her clients succeed is what drives her. She is a dedicated professional who consistently goes above and beyond what anyone would expect in a real estate agent. She knows the area and the market intimately and has the relationships, knowledge and drive needed to achieve the best results for her clients. Her effervescent personality and boundless energy makes the entire process of buying and selling seamless and fun. By the end of a transaction her clients feel that they have received exemplary real estate representation and a life-long friend. Mandy lives and works in Scotts Valley with her husband and business partner Matt and their two daughters. In her free time she enjoys running (she ran 1,000 miles in 2020!), yoga, attending her childrens' sporting events, the San Francisco Giants, organic gardening, cooking, reading and travel.

The Drapers have been our exclusive agents for over 25 years and seen us through 6 real estate transactions (sales and purchases). Their hard work has helped us build a portfolio of rentals as well as our personal homes. We highly recommend them !

To say Mandy Draper and her team went above and beyond to sell our house is an understatement. Not only was the marketing of our home both top notch and affordable we got advice on everything associated with preparing the home and our move. In the end we took an approach of "let's just do whatever Mandy tells us" as her advice and strategy were always spot on. We were not easy client, with our decision to sell a difficult one, but she was endlessly patient over a period of many months. Most importantly we really think we got the best price possible for the home thanks to her preparations and negotiations.

Mandy is awesome! She helped me sell my fathers house, which had not been updated in 50 years. She provided some suggestions for improvements to maximize value. Since l live out of town, She also help coordinated the work that needed to be doneaEUR|I was so grateful. Also, communication was prompt and thorough. We own a rental home in the area and if we were to sell, I would immediately list it with Mandy.

Mandy Draper at Community Real Estate is a consummate professional who provided expert guidance at every step of the way in selling our property. We had inherited the property in terrible shape, and Mandy helped us with everything from complete disaster clean-up to landscaping in order to prepare it for sale. She was thorough and thoughtful regarding every step of the process, communicated clearly and kept us informed, and had the highest level of integrity. She dealt creatively and professionally with a couple of unanticipated glitches that arose during the closing, and the property ultimately sold for a price well above the listing price. I cannot speak highly enough of the dedication, skill, and professionalism of Mandy Draper at Community Real Estate. Her service was exceptional!

Not all real estate agents/agencies are created equal so why roll the dice on the guy or gal with their face on the most yard signs or ads in the local paper? Real estate transactions are the most important, most complicated transactions most of us will ever make, and one wrong move by an inexperienced agent could be expensive or impossible to correct. The Draper Team helped us with 3 uniquely different transactions and quickly earned our trust and respect with their expertise in market research and trends, market prep, marketing strategy, timing, negotiation, financing, estate and tax implications, rental prep, inspections, and the potential legal ramifications of each decision we made. I couldnt imagine buying or selling real estate without Matt or Mandy guiding us.
