Testimonials

“We wanted to sell our 1/4 share unit in the Timberline Lodges at Fernie Alpine Resort. We asked Deb if she could help us by being our Real estate agent. She gladly accepted. Dealing with her was easy from the beginning to the end of the process. The communication was very efficient, even on the weekend when she was camping! She guided us through the whole process. We ended selling our condo quickly for a way higher price than what we expected! Thanks Deb for being so knowledgeable and professional. We would definitely recommend your services to anyone who intends to buy or sell in the Fernie area, or wherever you are providing real estate services!”  Francois Raymond

‘We wanted to pass along a huge thank you to our realtor, Deb Trand, who helped us with our recent town-home purchase at Fernie Alpine Resort. Her knowledge, professionalism, friendly manner and availability were exceptional. She helped us to navigate through a difficult negotiation then continued to guide us through all the red tape to possession day. We have no hesitation in highly recommending her to our family and friends.’

‘For anyone wishing to market their property in the Fernie area, we highly recommend Ms.Deb Trand. She is very experienced and knowledgeable about marketing such properties, a hard worker, great communicator, and a straight, no nonsense, shooter. She also worked and coordinated seamlessly with our “Seller’s Attorney” , our property tax accountant, and others who played a role in the transfer process. For anyone coming to Fernie to enjoy its wonderful outdoor setting, its passions for skiing, fishing, biking etc., Deb knows it, and has done it herself, so that she can well relate to those wishing to become part of the Fernie Community.

Thank you Deb .’

‘We owned a quarter share in Fernie at Juniper Lodge for approximately 3 years before deciding that we had to sell. We had bought our place from Deb Trand so naturally thought we should go back to her to assist us in selling our property. Deb was incredibly professional and communicated with us every step of the way knowing the market was slowing down and we were not sure how long it would take to sell. Deb featured our property on websites, conducted open houses and even went international when advertising our property! Having done all of that landed us a sale for our target asking price within only 9 months! We would not hesitate to refer Deb and her services as she is so familiar with Fernie and the real estate market, and willing to think outside the box. Thank you Deb for your great service!’

It has been a real pleasure dealing with you. Thanks for your timeliness, professionalism and always keeping us in the loop’

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.

‘Deb has assisted me twice over a ten year period in regards to purchasing property in Fernie. On both occasions she was the complete professional, offering timely and objective advice in regards to both options and process. I have no hesitation recommending Deb whether you are buying or selling.’

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.

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.

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!

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.

‘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.”

‘We are very pleased to have had Deb as our realtor.  We have both bought and sold with Deb.  With the changing economic climate our sale was more complicated, but Deb was able to walk us through it and reassure us along the way and manage the overlapping timelines for both. 

Deb is extremely organized which with our busy schedules we needed, detail oriented and went the extra mile.   We felt very confident in her knowledge, representation, and skill translation.   Deb is personable and always follows through on what she says. I would not hesitate to recommend Deb to family and friends.’

‘I highly recommend Deb Trand to help you find your ideal home in Fernie. It isn’t an easy task and Deb was always available to show us home after home until we found the one for us. She provided professional advice and guided us through the negotiation process with ease.’

“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.’

‘Our experience with Deb was excellent and we can’t recommend her services enough. She is patient, professional, thorough and not pushy. We really felt like she had our best interests in mind and worked hard to find us a property that ticked all our boxes. In a fast moving market she gave us the time we needed to think things through (did I mention she’s patient?). We also really appreciated how careful and thoughtful Deb was with regards to COVID protocols for both our families sake, and also the Sellers homes that we were going into. Deb was extremely diligent with her support through removing conditions and provided excellent resources for inspections and reporting all the way down to checklists. We’re hoping to not move for a very very long time, but if we ever do need real estate needs in the Elk Valley, Deb will be our representative.’

‘We bought a couple of properties in Fernie through Deb and she was excellent to work with. Very knowledgeable and responsive!’

‘Deb was excellent at helping us find a vacation property in Fernie. She communicated rapidly and helped us close in a short time period with minimal hassle. Would highly recommend!’

‘Deb Trand did such a excellent job selling our house in Fernie.  We sold our house in just over a month!!!  Deb is great to work with and always a pleasure to talk to.  Thanks Deb for all your hard work!!!!’

“Thank you Deb for selling my house so quickly. You really made the process of selling seem easy and low stress. Your knowledge of the market is excellent and the professional photos and staging that you had done for my house really made a all the difference. “

‘Deb was fantastic to work with buying our property. She was responsive, very knowledgeable and professional. We were buying from out of province and not able to meet in person, but she was able to set up a virtual walk through for us.’

‘This is the second time I’ve used Deb Trand as my realtor in Fernie. Deb is extremely knowledgeable and professional, adding to this her friendly demeanor and confidence, made my sometimes stressful situation so much easier to sail through. Most importantly, at the end of the day and for both occasions, I was left feeling extremely grateful I chose Deb as my realtor – I’m sure you will as well.’  

‘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!’

‘When we started our property search in Fernie, we were referred to Deb from friends. We are from Calgary which made our viewing availability very limited, but she was always willing to help coordinate a time that worked for us even if it meant taking up part of her weekend. She was also very patient while we narrowed in on exactly what we were looking for. We truly believe she was the key to our offer being accepted and grateful to her for helping us find our home away from home in Fernie!’
