About Joanne Yaakov

Prior to becoming a licensed Real Estate Professional, I owned and operated a large food manufacturing company in Alberta for close to 30 yrs which I started from scratch at a young age. Over time my company grew and gained notoriety across Canada, coast to coast. We enjoyed having a wonderful reputation as one of the few premier high-quality food suppliers to the wholesale industry as well as being known for our excellent customer service and follow through. We were sought out by large corporations to produce custom products and formulations of which I was the creator of them all. Running a large corporation had its challenges to stay on top of all life’s demands … but organization and time management came naturally and instinctively to me. After selling out of my company and experiencing one to many cold snowy winters I moved to BC and fell in love with the great outdoors. Once settled I began my quest for something new to dedicate myself to. I always loved creating things using my natural design instincts and high attention to detail. So, I educated myself and pursued a career as professional organizer, interior decorator, color consultant and home stager which was a truly serendipitous experience. I started a new business with the goal of having my clients after working with me, find me a “serendipitous experience”. Going into people’s homes, helping clients determine their colour, design and room layout preferences or staging a home for sale was very rewarding, I loved it. This drew me into considering real estate as a profession, so again I educated myself and I became a licensed Professional Realtor. Now as a licensed Real Estate Professional, I bring to the table my full skillset of business experience and acquired knowledge, offering clients a full package of ideas developed over the three decades plus of running my own successful businesses. I am all about attention to detail whether it be helping clients prepare and stage their home for sale or the important details needed for organization, time management and negotiating to close a deal. These are all part of my core strengths, giving clients peace of mind through the process of working through all aspects of the real estate transaction. No matter what your needs whether it be finding the perfect new home, selling an existing home or buying/selling an investment property, my desire and goal is to serve my clients needs. I love working with people, I am a sharp negotiator and impeccable professional customer service is my priority. Helping clients find the properties of their dreams gives me pure joy and that comes with doing what I love. For me, it’s all about passion and I have a lot of that. Purchasing real estate is a big decision and I welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver impeccable service.
