Russell Real Estate

Russell Real Estate Real Estate Sales & Marketing Consultant; specializing in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island BC

REALTORยฎ I have been part of RE/MAX of Nanaimo since June 2008.

I was born and raised here in Nanaimo and honestly can't imagine living anywhere else. My ancestors actually came to Vancouver Island in 1854, making me the 5th generation of my family to live here. I have a vast knowledge of the greater Nanaimo area and specialize in both residential and commercial real estate. I have a proven sales record and am committed to building relationships by exceeding m

y clients' expectations for efficient and effective service. Knowing and understanding the demands of the marketplace, along with the skills needed to be successful in our ever-evolving industry, I am confident in my abilities to help you not only find your next perfect property but also get you the best possible price when selling a property. When I am not working with clients, you will find me spending as much time with my daughter Ava as possible, her being one of my proudest priorities. We get out-and-about walking on the seawall, going to parks, skiing on Mount Washington, boating, and visiting with family and friends. Ava is involved in many sports activities, some in which I volunteer for on a regular basis.
