About Greg:Greg is an Associate Real estate Broker with Newport Realty in Victoria. He's worked in the Victoria real estate market on Southern Vancouver Island for morfe than ten years. Greg has been a long-time visitor to Vancouver Island, and finally decided to move his Real Estate practice from Vancouver to Pender Island in the Southern Gulf Islands in 1996. Greg started his Gulf Islands real estate career commuting between his Pender Island home to his Mayne Island office by ferry. Greg has had a chance to learn about the Gulf Islands first-hand, and he is a great resource for folks relocating to the area. Greg became the first President of the revived Pender Island Chamber of Commerce. Greg is the only Gulf Islands Realtor who has achieved the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver's (REBGV) Medallion Club status. Greg has continued to expand the area he serves, and he now handles real estate transactions from Victoria to Parksville on Vancouver Island. He moved his offices to Victoria in 2003, joining Newport Realty. He still commutes to the Southern Gulf Islands, but he spends much of his time in Victoria. He'd love to be your Southern Vancouver Island and Gulf Islands Realtor!
