Welcome to genefreeborn.com,

Whether you already live here or halfway around the world, I can help you buy and sell Nanaimo and area properties at the best possible price and terms.

For buyers, please call or email me at any time for immediate assistance. I will meet with you at your convenience to review all available listings online, arrange viewings and prepare the necessary purchase documents. If you are more interested in monitoring listings over a longer period of time, I would encourage you to use my Property Watcher service to see all new listings with the same details as available to realtors. This is a vastly superior way to search online than MLS.CA. See the Buying section for more details.

If you are considering selling your property, give me a call or email me for a free, no obligation listing evaluation. I can also offer you advice on how to best prepare your property to sell at the highest price as quickly as possible. See the Selling section for the details of my Twelve Weeks or Less Marketing Plan.

Additionally, let me know if you would like to receive my bimonthly newsletter Nanaimo and Area realestate Update by email or mailed directly to your home. Over 250 readers now receive it every two months to keep abreast of current real estate market trends and issues.

I hope that you find my website as helpful as possible and look forward to the opportunity to serve you.

Pleased to Meet You


After living in four provinces from coast to coast, my wife Deb and I know how fortunate we are to be residents of this most beautiful part of our country. We also really appreciate our Mediterranean climate when we reflect on past winters in much colder places.

Prior to becoming a licensed realtor in 2003, I worked in residential and commercial construction, oil exploration, personnel recruitment and healthcare administration. From 1989 to 2001, I held various administrative positions at the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital, including President and CEO. After the Hospital amalgamated with the Central Vancouver Island Health Region, I assumed the position of VP Operations for the Nanaimo and Area hospital and public health services. I have attended the University of Western Ontario, Dalhousie University, and the University of Toronto, and have a bachelor's degree in philosophy and masters degree in health sciences administration.

From my education and work experiences, I have learned how to develop positive relationships, communicate effectively, and negotiate desired outcomes. I believe that these are the essential requirements of an effective realtor. In 2005, I received the Sutton Director Award for outstanding service as a realtor.
