A talent for marketing effectively, a devotion to serving others, an outstanding work ethic and a longtime passion for the Orange County lifestyle are the hallmarks of Dave Gublers’ real estate career. Dave has earned a spot among the top 10% of REALTORS® in Orange County, CA. Dave has sold over 500 homes since 2010, a figure approximately 10 times that of the average California agent. “I want to continue to serve my clients and be the best I can be for them."

Dave is a marketing and negotiation specialist and applies groundbreaking techniques to real estate marketing and business development. “I’ve always been an early adopter, I pour myself into my career and do as much education and research as I can in order to stand out,” says Dave. “I’ve done things differently than other agents for a long time, marketing from the ground up and staying ahead of the curve.” As other agents grow frustrated with the surge of technology, I embrace it, educate myself regularly and implement what I learn. I thrive on giving my clients what, unfortunately, most fail to. I run my business like a business, not a part-time hobby.”

Dave places such great importance on marketing that he has two full-time staff members dedicated to marketing, to include a digital marketer and a marketing specialist. He also hires specialists that help him optimize the various Social Media platforms to target market to the masses. “I market my homes as if every home is a multi-million dollar listing” says Dave, noting that every house gets the full package, whether priced at $700,000 or $1.7 million plus. Before a home is listed, IML Real Estate pays for basic staging and provides a digital marketing platform that continues to be refined. “Our digital marketing gets the maximum exposure with SEO techniques and enhanced online placements. We’re also doing target marketing and text-message marketing. We create Specific Landing Pages to attract buyers in a unique manner.” From professional photography, videography and drone photography; the team then produces property-specific websites and professional color brochures.

All of this effort helps Dave achieve his primary goal – satisfied clients that have obtained the highest possible sale price. “I love being able to educate clients and to help people,” he says. “It’s about the person, not the money. Around our office we say, ‘People before things,’ and we know that as long as we’re taking great care of people, the best will come.” Having sold more than 500 homes, Dave's vast experience enables him to be proactive, not reactive, during each transaction. “I’ve been in this business more than 15 years and closed so many deals that I know what can go wrong!” Dave says with a self-deprecating laugh. He and his team create the best possible outcomes with the utmost professionalism. Clients notice, telling Dave that the experience of working with him is smoother and more enjoyable than they expected. As a result, clients spread the word about IML Real Estate as can be seen from the high number of 5-star reviews he has online.
