As a member of Brookfield Global Relocation Services, I can help to make this transition easier and take care of the finer details for you. Here is a summary of what I can do to make your move as easy as possible:

  • Provide Listings that match your criteria to find the perfect property for you.  As Edmonton’s Top Relocation expert I provide the guidance and information you need to make an informed decision. I am familiar with the suburbs closest to CFB Edmonton, such as North Edmonton and St. Albert. Based on your preferences, whether it is parks, great schools, or an assortment of amenities, I can provide comprehensive community information to ensure it is right for you and your family.
  • I can provide you with the information needed to help you to prepare a target house value limit. This will include a complete cost-of-living comparison including local property taxes, cost of utilities, price of groceries, and other day-to-day expenses. This will enable me to accurately find  homes within your targeted price range, and give you peace of mind that your monthly bills don’t exceed your expectations.
  • When a house becomes a possible purchase I provide a complete market analysis. This will show you trends in the area and help us to make an informed choice before going ahead with a purchase. Rest assured that from opening negotiations through closing the sale I will be there to make your Purchase as STRESS FREE as possible.

We have successfully helped hundreds of RCMP & DND members with the sale of their homes in Edmonton and the surrounding area. All of our real estate partners are on the BGRS supplier list including lawyers and certified property inspectors. If you need assistance with your mortgage approval, we have mortgage brokers who are familiar with the military buy-downs. 

The Canadian Armed Forces Base Edmonton Garrison is also known as the “Steele Barracks”. It is the 3rd Canadian Division Support Base located a few minutes of the city, about 20 minutes east of the popular military town of Morinville and a half hour from Gibbons and Bon Accord which offer great properties with more affordable prices.
I am here to answer questions you may have including the best places to purchase a home on your house hunting trip, knowing you may be posted out at any time. I will ensure that the home you purchase will be the best for resale purposes, saving you time, money and stress on your next HHT.
