Testimonials

‘Thanks for all the assistance in walking us through the process of purchasing a town house in Fernie. It was great to have you outlining the various processes involved in the sale and giving us in-site to community resources. It was a pleasure working with you.’   Brent

‘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.’

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

‘What an easy and seamless experience it was buying a property with assistance from Deb. As a foreign purchaser we were not sure of the procedure to follow, but Deb made everything seamless, all documents and compliance was completed ahead of time and without fuss.

Every few days we would receive a reminder of what was needing to happen and by what date. So satisfying to find someone so friendly and accommodating.

Upon settlement of our purchase Deb even gave us a gift, which we were so surprised about!

We would highly recommend Deb to anyone wanting to buy or sell their property in Fernie.

Such a great experience! 10/10 from us!

Well done Deb Trand!’  Jim and Robyn Kolesnyk

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”

“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. “

‘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.’  

‘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!’

“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!”

‘We enlisted Deb Trand to market our condo in Fernie. Deb provided upfront information and met with us to discuss our situation and listing requirements. She promptly listed the property with professional photos and a 360 virtual property tour. Deb’s knowledge of the Fernie real estate market enabled her to recommend a competitive listing price and aggressive marketing strategy which generated an offer within 2 days. Deb provided strong guidance throughout the negotiation and ultimate closing process. We would highly recommend Deb Trand, she is a skilled and effective realtor, and intend to enlist her services again in the future.’

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!

‘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.’

‘Deb was great. Patient, professional. Was an older house and was a bit of a challenge to sell but Deb got it done!. I recommend her and her services highly. ‘ Dale

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.

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 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 outstanding to deal with, prompt, knowledgeable of the area and patient. She has great relationships with other realtors in the area which helps greatly in finding the right property and negotiating a successful deal. Deb responds quickly to questions with thoughtful and thorough answers. Would recommend working with Deb to find your next property.’  Garrett Hubbell

“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.’

“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

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!
