One of the great things about the country we live in is our ability to choose freely what we do and with whom we associate. Some countries in our 21st Century world still do not operate this way. Having extensively travelled around the world, I have witnessed some of them first hand. This travel experience made me realize just how terrific it is to live in Canada. Democracy is a great thing and so is living in the Comox Valley.
While some people are fortunate enough to grow up in the Comox Valley, many choose to relocate to our Canadian oasis. When they do they often turn to a real estate agent for assistance. Choosing a real estate agent is a personal and important decision. Why people choose who they do will vary. If you are considering this important decision, consider the following.
RE/MAX has a global presence and the company is featured in 89 countries around the world in 6317 offices. At the time of the writing of this blog, the company had 88,922 REMAX affiliates. No other real estate company sells more real estate than RE/MAX. This year, RE/MAX celebrates its 40th birthday. The company has a substantial online presence with a global site, national sites, regional site, and local sites. Within Canada, RE/MAX maintains an online presence through remax.ca, a Western presence through remax-western.ca, a British Columbia presence through remax.ca/bc, a Vancouver Island presence through realestateonvancouverisland.com and a local presence through oceanpacificrealty.com.
RE/MAX has been #1 in Canada since 1987. While also outperforming its competitors at the national level, REMAX also sells more luxury properties under the RE/MAX Collection brand than the others based on MLS statistics in Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton. Surveys have shown that RE/MAX has the highest real estate brand recall with Western Canadian consumers and that its agents scored the highest of all the brands with consumers surveyed. Locally, RE/MAX Ocean Pacific Realty achieved the leading market share in 1987. Today, it maintains this leading share with close to 50% of the market.
I, Brett Cairns of RE/MAX Ocean Pacific Realty office in Comox, British Columbia provide full time, full service, bilingual, professional real estate services throughout the Comox Valley. I have the power of the RE/MAX brand as my foundation and more than 35 years of education, training, and experience as a professional who practices continuous learning and adheres to a code of professional conduct.
When I look for a professional, I look at things like character and competence along with attitude, motivation (why someone is doing what they do), and work ethic. People who know me can attest to my qualities. Perhaps nobody knows me better than my wife of 33 years. Some testimonials appear on my website and I would be pleased to contact them and have them speak to you directly. Other people living in the local area (and throughout Canada and North America) know me well. I would be pleased to have any of them talk to you.
