Well, meet The Riviera Realtor®! A proud, lifelong resident of the Annapolis Valley, Josh Noiles grew up in Brooklyn, Hants County, and from a young age, developed a deep love of community, a keen sense of humour and a passion for people. Windsor is his beloved hometown, where he graduated Class President of Avon View High School in 2005. After attending Acadia University in Wolfville, Josh began
a career as a Licensed / Registered Funeral Director, Embalmer and Commissioner of Oaths at the historic DeMont Family Funeral Home (formerly Lohnes', founded 1922), with which he is still associated. After some participation in municipal politics in 2016, Josh received the appointment of Justice of the Peace and takes great joy in officiating wedding ceremonies all over the province. He enjoys volunteering, acting as MC at various events, and working with kids in his long-running role as drama instructor at the Nova Scotia Choral Federation’s acclaimed “Sing Summer” music camps in Berwick. Aside from friends, family, film and food, Josh’s personal interests largely involve music and old cars. First and foremost a drummer, he can often be seen (and heard!) playing his cherished vintage kits on stage with a number of local bands. His musical taste is wide-ranging and eclectic and he's always up for a jam! Obsessed from childhood with all things automotive, Josh has become a true classic car enthusiast, collector, historian and is a member of several antique automobile clubs and associations. He loves driving his aged Cadillacs and “boattail” Buick Riviera, or just spending time with his brother, Matt (a Red Seal Automotive Technician), their dad, Art, and likeminded buddies in “The Noiles Bros. Garage” wrenching on their beloved old vehicles while enjoying a laugh and a hot cup of tea. A fixture at shows and swap meets far and wide, Josh enjoys exploring junkyards, cruising to the drive-in, the drive-thru, and sharing his passion ad nauseam with fellow aficionados or anyone who’ll listen. Considering his previous experience and lifelong desire to help others, for Josh, answering the call to become a Realtor® was only natural. As a funeral director, he is used to assisting individuals and families with monumental decisions and providing calm, calculated, compassionate, and confident guidance at sensitive times. He has an eye for detail, is openminded, optimistic, organized, understanding as well as accustomed to being available all hours at the drop of a hat. Born and raised in Nova Scotia, and forever traveling its highways and byways, he has intimate knowledge of the province. Josh can relate to and connect with all ages of people, from all walks of life, and he maintains a diverse and sizeable network of contacts. Working closely with many couples as a Justice of the Peace has afforded him meaningful insight as to what the families of our region aspire to, long for and need, no matter the stage of life in which they find themselves. Approachable and affable, Josh is a true people-person. He is tirelessly energetic, well-intentioned, capable, caring, comedic, courteous and kind.
