About Mike
Mike has been a
realtor in Penticton since 1992, working in both the residential
and commercial fields. His background as a newspaper editor and
photographer before that have served him well on the marketing
side, providing the skills for quality feature packages
and internet exposure for listings.
He has been
involved in every type of real estate sale, from mobile homes to
one of the highest sale prices on Skaha Lake; commercial leases and
the sale of buildings in Penticton's downtown core. He is known
as an honest straight-forward person, one of three Penticton
realtors chosen when realtors in the city were polled by an
independent company as to who they would hire if they were no
longer selling real estate.
Born in Great Britain, Mike grew
up in southern Ontario, went to university and worked for several
years in the Maritmes before settling in Penticton in 1988, where
he raised his family.
About Jaclyn
Jaclyn's
experience as a mortgage broker has proven to be a
real asset for both buyers and sellers. After receiving her real estate
license in 2003 and working first as an assistant then
as a full-time realtor, Jaclyn left the industry to have her
son Erik in 2006. She came back in 2008 to work in the mortgage
industry, latterly as a mortgage broker. But by 2010 she
realised that she missed the many facets of real estate, and
joined Mike as partner. Her knowledge of the mortgage
industry
has been a real help to both buyers and sellers.
Jaclyn
grew up in Kimberley, B.C., and is a graduate of the University
of Calgary.
About
Mike and Jaclyn, the team
Mike
and Jaclyn first worked together in marketing the initial phase of
the Lakeshore Towers condominium project between 2002 and 2004. They
bring a genuine upbeat approach to real estate, coupled with a
professional thoroughness and commitment to doing the job right. They
know how to negotiate an offer so that the sale happens. And they
know how to keep everything on track, who to recommend for
inspections, appraisals and the legal documentation. Anybody who
has worked with them can tell you that they enjoy what they do, and
that comes through in how they do it.
