Testimonials

‘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.’

“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 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.’

‘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 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.

Deb was fantastic to work with selling our quarter share property. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and professional. Her advice throughout the transaction was clear and accurate. We would highly recommend her for any real estate transactions in Fernie and area.

‘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!’

‘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.’

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

Testimonial Tuesday! It’s been a busy summer but I make client service my top priority!
‘Deb was an absolute pleasure to deal with on our recent real estate purchase. We were not in the same city we were buying in, and also right in the middle of the COVID pandemic and Deb did everything she could to make the experience positive and safe for our family. We felt like she was extremely personable and extremely knowledgeable on the valley. She also made it extremely easy to work with her remotely with excellent contacts for inspections, and also legal services. We would absolutely recommend Deb to anyone looking for a high value and trustworthy agent.’

‘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.’

“After a couple of years of searching we narrowed in on Fernie – a haven for both skiing and mountain-biking, and perfect for us and our 3 children. Deb really helped us out, and we bought a place downtown Fernie that we are really happy with. What stands out about Deb is that she is so easy to deal with. She is energetic, committed, knowledgeable and perhaps most importantly transparent and straight forward. Wishing you success in your search.’

‘September 2023, we wanted to sell our 1/4 share ownership of a unit in the Timberline Lodges at Fernie Alpine Resort. We asked to Deb 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. She was very familiar with the property and provided excellent advice about the whole selling process.

The communication was very efficient, even on Sundays and the first snow day! We ended up selling our condo quickly for what we hoped to.

Thanks Deb for being so knowledgeable and professional. We definitely recommend your services to anyone who intends to buy or sell in the Fernie area, or wherever you are providing real estate services!’ David and Brenda

‘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.’

‘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.’

“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!”

‘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 was fantastic to work with.  She made purchasing our vacation property stress free.  Deb is highly knowledgeable of the Fernie real estate market. We would highly recommend her to others.

Deb is outstanding. She helped me sell my place very quickly and I couldn’t be happier! 

‘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.’

‘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!’

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 have worked with Deb for buying and now also for selling, and it has been such a pleasure! She is knowledgeable, flexible, and very responsive. We were first time buyers and first time sellers, and she was patient with our questions and accommodating. Being local, she knows the town well and gave great advice. We would use her again and again and will always recommend to friends! ‘

‘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!’
