‘We recently had the pleasure of working with Deb Trand.

Our search for property in Fernie was fast and furious and so was our search for a realtor. We contacted Deb based on her background, experience and invaluable reviews.

Deb quickly put together a list of properties, comparables and general information based on our criteria. We met Deb a couple of weeks later and spent the afternoon viewing potential listings as well as driving us around the various communities. Deb provided us with history, what’s new, what coming and all that Fernie has to offer! Together we found the perfect property and we can’t wait to spend time in Fernie and become part of the community.

From start to finish, the process and communication was first-rate. Deb is professional, experienced, very personable and down to earth. She is resourceful and well connected and has gone beyond to get our questions answered. She was a delight to work with.’ Tracy Bialowas

“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”

‘We used Deb to sell our home on Lake Koocanusa. It was a rush to get it on the market. She was cooperative and handled the process with the utmost professionalism. With a sale in less than a week, what more could we ask for! Highly recommend.’

‘Dealing with Deb was a real pleasure. Deb listened to our requirements, was very responsive to our many questions and helped guide us through the entire process. She was professional in her approach and very knowledgeable about the properties on the ski hill and the area in general. I would certainly recommend Deb to anyone that is looking for a place in the area.’

“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 had the pleasure of working with Deb on two occasions. One transaction was the sale of an undeveloped lot, and the second transaction was the recent purchase of a single-family home. Deb has been a joy to work with; she is the consummate professional. Communication was responsive and clear. Her advice regarding pricing and negotiations in both instances was spot on. Her attention to detail and her thoroughness was greatly appreciated. We were thrilled with both the process and the outcome of both transactions.

We wholeheartedly recommend Deb’s services to anyone looking to purchase or sell a property in Fernie!

‘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.’

“We would absolutely recommend Deb to any friends or family. She was always available to answer questions, going above and beyond to make our land purchase possible. Her calm demeanor smoothed out any road bumps along the way. Deb  is a true professional in her trade!”

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!

‘Thanks Eric and Sue! This was a message I received today from buyers at Fernie Alpine Resort who wanted to let other know about their buying experience: ‘We had the pleasure of working with Deb when purchasing our second on-hill property in Fernie. Her expertise, professionalism and integrity were refreshing. She was exceptionally quick to reply to our questions and requests that were in some cases above and beyond what one would generally expect from a Realtor. She has the thorough knowledge of ski-hill properties that comes from years of experience. Deb was recommended to us by friends and we have recommended her to others without hesitation. Thanks Deb’

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.

‘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!’

‘We worked with Deb to purchase our first home and couldn’t be happier with our experience. Deb walked us through every step of the process and answered all our questions. She is very approachable and warm and we fully trusted her to support us while we made a big life decision! Would fully recommend!’
