PAUL AND ARLENE DEVER, ALBERTA
Deb made the process of selling our Fernie property a breeze. The superb listing presentation of our condo, along with the internet and social media marketing, brought us plenty of traffic in a difficult market. Deb has an extensive network in the Fernie area and she produced two buyers which enabled us to reduce the commission and negotiate an excellent price. We couldn’t have asked for more!

‘After working with other realtors and not having success, it was a pleasure to work with Deb. She has a great knowledge of the market in Fernie and provided quick and excellent advise and results. We highly recommend her for all your real estate needs.’
Ken and Gayle Piecharka
We highly recommend Deb Trand as your realtor. She not only sold our quarter share to us but helped us 8 years later to sell our property. Highly professional and well informed, she faithfully kept us up to date on the Fernie market and any showings of our property. It has certainly been a pleasure to work with Deb and we wouldn’t hesitate to do so again.
MARK & LYNN THOMSON
Myron and I were very fortunate to have Deb Trand as our realtor. We bought the condo through her and she sold it for us 19 years later. Deb did an amazing job presenting the condo and had multiple offers just days after listing. Deb was very patient and accommodating. We would definitely go with Deb Trand again if we were to buy again in the area. Thank you Deb!

“Deb Trand is great to work with. She is professional and personable. She was representing both seller and buyer(me) for the property. I feel she did a great job managing this. She was good at walking me through the process and always quick at answering any questions”

‘I found Deb easy to work with, professional in all aspects of the sale and available any time we needed a question answered. She’s hard working and honest which helped make the sale of our Fernie home low stress.’
WENDY HOWSE, FERNIE
‘Deb was great to deal with on the purchase of our new condo in Fernie! We contacted her with a last minute request to meet in Fernie, and she was able to line up showings and accommodate our timing. We had a difficult time deciding on our purchase and Deb was very patient with us while we weighed our options. Even with us living in Calgary, Deb was able to facilitate all aspects of the purchase smoothly over email. We are very happy with our new condo!’
CHRIS AND CASSIA REDMOND
We have known Deb for several years and found her to be honest, helpful, and very professional to work with while she was in the property management business….a tough, competitive, business! When we decided to sell our condo in Fernie, we told her we would try to sell it ourselves but would list it with her if that did not work. She was very helpful and forthcoming with advice during our attempt to self-sell. When that became too complicated, we listed it with her. She provided the help and guidance we needed and worked with us to set a price with which we were comfortable. The timing was awkward for us (and for her); since we had to return to the states as soon as we listed it. She sold it in a matter of a few days; and kept us apprised after each showing; and candidly provided feedback to help us understand the evolving market. The sales process was even more complex across an international border and we insisted on understanding all aspects of the process. She was always available to answer our questions and very patient in helping us to understand. Thoroughly professional….and extremely knowledgeable of the market in that area!

‘Our family have been regular visitors to Fernie for almost 15 years. We met Deb Trand many years ago and were always impressed with her knowledge of Fernie, including the Fernie real estate market, her enthusiasm and excellent overall customer service. With Deb joining Century 21, we were able to engage Deb recently to help us sell our condo on the ski hill at Fernie (we recently upgraded to a bigger unit). Although Deb presented us with a comprehensive marketing plan to sell our unit, we had confidence in her based more on her reputation and integrity, and the fact that we had known her for so many years. In a relatively short time frame, we received offers for our unit with a resulting sale. We would not hesitate to recommend Deb to anyone looking for real estate in and around the Fernie area.”
BLAINE MYTRUK, C.A., ALBERTA
Deb was recommended to us by a friend, and she did not disappoint. Friendly and professional, answering any questions honestly and quickly . We highly recommend her for all your real-estate needs.
We bought our quarter share with Deb Trand 15 years ago. The experience was so positive that we asked Deb to repeat her magic when we decided to sell it. We couldn’t be happier. The time and attention Deb gave to the details was remarkable. She anticipated our questions and always provided timely advice. Our sale went through without a hitch and we were thankful we had Deb’s expertise and help. Deb Trand isa real professional in her field. If you are thinking of buying or selling a property in Fernie BC, give Deb Trand a call. You’ll be like us, happy that you did.

“Deb’s experience and local knowledge was critical in guiding the sale of our vacation property in Fernie. We appreciate her engagement and willingness to help where she could to ensure a smooth transaction. We highly recommend Deb for your real estate needs.’
Mark & Mylena Goldie
‘Thanks again for the seamless navigation of the condo sale. It’s a complex system and there are no ways around the obstacles, but with your guidance we plowed through them with the utmost speed and efficiency. Thank you. Although it is highly unlikely that Nina and I will buy another FERNIE property, we will certainly recommend you should anyone ask.’
JON TURK
‘We used Deb Trand’s services to both buy, and 13 years later, to sell our condo in Juniper Lodge (Fernie Alpine Resort). She was knowledgeable, responsive and provided good advice on both occasions. Our purchase and sale transactions both went smoothly. We would not hesitate to use Deb as our realtor again if we are looking to buy in Fernie again.’
Wade and Laureen Vienneau
Deb recently helped us to sell 2 quarter share units and purchase the perfect condo for our family. Her experience and knowledge of the market were impressive and gave us total confidence throughout the process. And communication was amazing, whether by phone, email or text (and even while she was on vacation). We were never left wondering or waiting on a response. She truly made this a stress free experience, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any of our friends or family.

Chris and Andrea Maitland
We have been visiting Fernie since 2004 and fell in love with the town. Back in 2007 we purchased a quarter share condo on the ski hill from Deb. She was easy to work with, friendly, knowledgeable and down to earth. Now over a decade later with two young boys we wanted to purchase something that we could call our own. Deb had the patience to let us figure out what we wanted exactly by showing us multiple properties over the course of a year. Once we had it ironed out, Deb would keep us constantly updated on the possibilities on the ski hill and how the market was looking. Without hesitation we would use Deb for any real estate transaction in the Fernie area.
Lande & Laurelle Edmiston
“We purchased a vacation condo and Deb made the long distance transition seamless. She took care of every little detail so we had the easiest time. She is truly amazing, her knowledge of real estate covers every foreseeable outcome. Deb is truly caring, warm and personable, always a pleasure to talk to. It was like having a best friend as our realtor. You really are amazing to deal with”
THE TYMKOWS, ALBERTA
“This was our first real estate purchase outside of our home province, Deb’s knowledge of the local market was foundational in our buying decisions. Deb was very flexible and very patient with our schedules during the viewing process. After the sale, she recommended great local services and helped us with all of the activities that needed to be managed at the new location such as the home inspection. Overall a very positive experience!”

We have no hesitation in highly recommending her to our family and friends.’
