Strategy. Care. Local Insight. 

Hi, I’m Kirby Drake—a real estate advisor with Engel & Völkers South Tampa and a proud Tampa Bay local for over 20 years. Now based in St. Petersburg, I love calling this vibrant, artsy, and sunshine-filled city home.

I specialize in listings—from luxury waterfront estates to condos and townhomes that didn’t sell the first time around. With today’s shifting market, the right agent makes all the difference. I bring strategic pricing, polished presentation, and negotiation that puts your goals first.

My approach is simple: lead with honesty, offer smart options, and provide the level of service I’d expect for myself. If buying or selling isn’t the right move right now, I’ll say so—because relationships matter more than transactions.

When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me walking my pups, working in my garden, or planning my next travel adventure. I love this city, and I’m passionate about helping others feel at home here too.

Whether you’re exploring your options or ready to take action, I’d love to be your go-to resource. If you're considering listing your home for sale or as a rental, expanding your investment portfolio, or finding new ways to maximize your property’s potential—let’s connect.
