About

Brent enjoys helping others buy and sell their homes. When you sell, the focus is to get you the most money, in the shortest time, with as little work and stress as possible. When you buy, it's about working hard to help you find the home of your dreams at the best price, with the least risk and stress.

When you work with Brent, you'll always have his expertise, advice and skills available around the clock. You'll never end up dealing with some junior assistant. He’ll personally ensure you know the pros and cons of every decision you make throughout the entire process, so you can confidently decide what’s best for you. Every time you call you'll always be talking to Brent, and it's always about what works best for you.

While Real Estate is Brent's life, his interests and hobbies provide exceptional extra value. When he's not focused on helping people like you buy and sell their homes, he can be found;

  1. Refining his public speaking skills at Toastmasters or other volunteer events. Brent enjoys the thrill of educating and entertaining a crowd from the front of a room. He offers the kind of confidence and posture you want in your corner, negotiating on your behalf.
  2. Researching and investigating new technologies that will allow him to be more effective at helping all his clients. Brent was a computer nerd as early as middle school in 1980. He went on to manage computer operations for a medium size telecommunications company while completing his B.Comm. in Finance in the late 80s and early 90s. He has the technical knowledge to give his clients many advantages throughout the buying and selling process, and his services are improving all the time.
  3. Studying world financial, capital, and asset markets. In fact, Brent as a CFA charter holder volunteers his time helping CFA candidates earn their CFA charter. It's important to Brent because the CFA charter is one of the most respected designations in the world of finance, and most importantly, the CFA Institute makes educating the industry about ethics one of its primary missions. The initials C.F.A. refer to Chartered Financial Analyst. To earn your charter, you must first complete an extremely rigorous graduate level program that focuses on ethics in the financial world, asset and investment valuation, asset allocation, forensic accounting, economics, and many other areas of investment analysis. It also covers the workings of world financial, capital, currency, debt, derivative, and asset markets to name a few. This knowledge gives Brent insights on how world events and international markets may impact the local real estate market. While no market is highly predictable, Brent's general knowledge of markets and various analytical skills help him offer many insights to clients just like you.
  4. Playing golf, travelling, reading, hiking, or socializing with family, new friends, and life long friends from his days at Royal Oak Middle School and Claremont Secondary School.

Brent has personally developed his many systems for buying and selling real estate. It's all designed to get you the best deal, with the least effort from you, while minimizing your risk and stress.

Work with Brent, and you'll soon see why many people consider Brent their best friend in real estate. It's been his life for close to two and a half decades.
