I have been an area resident for most of my life and a real estate professional since 1994; helping lots of people find the right home in the right area at the right price. As our communities here cater to families and seniors, the activities for both are endless! Just make sure that when you purchase your home you have room for company, everyone loves to come to Parksville.

This is a wonderful place to live. When I moved here with my family in 1969, the phone book had three pages dedicated to Parksville numbers and it was a one street light town. I attended junior and senior High School here. My husband and I have two great daughters. We did moms and tots, pre-school, elementary, middle and high schools here. Our children are very lucky to have such great sports, dance and recreation programs.

Through the years we have been curlers and bowlers, my husband has played in many ball leagues. Fishing and camping are so easy – you can go back and forth to work from the campground when the weather is too nice to come home. Before becoming a real estate professional I worked for local politician and chartered accountant, Anton Kruyt. My husband is an electrician, and has also spent 30 years with the volunteer fire department, having served as deputy chief for 12 of those years. Our roots in this community run very deep. A big part of my community contributions involve working with the SPCA and regularly sponsoring ads for animals that need homes.

As a result I’ve become well known as “the pet lovers realtor”.

I invite you to find out more about Parksville real estate and our island lifestyle. After all, Parksville real estate is some of the most desirable in North America. Contact me today! I’d love to show you and your family why I believe you’ll enjoy living here as much as everyone else does.

Jason is an upbeat, positive person, that can always find a silver lining in any situation. He moved to Parksville in 2016, so that he and his family could enjoy the island life. Moving from the lower mainland, he has a great understanding of the many reasons people are looking to move to a fantastic place like Oceanside.

Jason brings a different approach to helping clients with buying and selling their homes. As a real estate investor of over ten years, Jason understands that a house can be a home, but it’s also one of the most expensive investments you can make. In order to make sure your investment is a good one, he knows it is of utmost importance to understand demographics, local economy, causes of market fluctuations, and a host of other external influences on housing prices.

 Jason also has a healthy amount of knowledge about construction, rehab, and renovations. He has done everything from simple flooring and paint renovations, to full gut rehabilitations. With this knowledge, he has gained an eye for seeing possibilities in houses, that others miss. Moving a wall, or adding a bathroom might be easier than you think, and could turn a plain house, into the house of your dreams.

Jason wanted to become a Realtor because he knows, when you’re passionate about something, you do your best work. Renovations, knowing markets and finding great deals are the things that he’s passionate about. Why not use his passion and knowledge to help other people find a home?
