About Joseph

Joseph Deraney is a licensed Louisiana Realtor® with The W Group Real Estate — ranked #1 in Louisiana by Real Trends for 2022, 2023, and 2024. Recognized as the 2024 Rising Star of the Year by the Northshore Area Board of REALTORS. He serves buyers and sellers across Mandeville, Covington, Slidell, Madisonville, Metairie, and New Orleans, with expertise spanning luxury homes, waterfront properties along Lake Pontchartrain, single-family residences, and investment properties.

Before real estate, Joseph worked on tugboats along the Mississippi River — including navigating Hurricane Ida — an experience that gave him a grounded, resilience-tested perspective on what home really means and what it takes to see a challenging situation through to the other side. That background carries directly into the way he approaches transactions: with steady hands, clear communication, and a genuine investment in the outcome for his clients.

Joseph’s approach is built on relationships first. Known as Your Best Friend in Real Estate, he takes time to understand exactly what buyers are looking for and filters quickly — clients consistently credit him with knowing their preferences almost immediately and steering them toward the right properties while eliminating wasted showings. When he’s not working with clients, Joseph enjoys golfing, discovering hidden local gems, and exploring the food and cultural scene across the Northshore and New Orleans.
