Why I Picked Realty Executives Diversified—And Why I’m Here to Stay

After 14+ years in the real estate industry, I’ve come to learn that the brokerage you align yourself with can make all the difference—not only in how you serve your clients, but in how you grow, thrive, and feel supported as a REALTOR®.

When I made the move to Realty Executives Diversified, I wasn’t just changing brokerages—I was choosing a place that felt like home. Here's why that decision was so important to me, and why I know I'm here to stay.

1. A Culture That Aligns with My Values

At Realty Executives Diversified, the culture is built on collaboration, support, and mutual respect. It’s not competitive in a cutthroat way—it’s competitive in a way that makes you better. We celebrate each other’s wins, share knowledge freely, and are genuinely invested in one another’s success.

As someone who believes in leading with integrity and serving clients with heart, it was essential for me to be part of a team that shares those same values.

2. Hands-On Leadership That Makes a Difference

One of the biggest reasons I feel confident and supported at Realty Executives Diversified is because of our broker, Chad Tameling. Chad is the kind of leader every agent hopes to have—approachable, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your success.

He’s incredibly responsive when you have questions or concerns, no matter how big or small, and he's not the type to sit behind the scenes. He’s hands-on, involved, and always willing to go the extra mile to help his agents succeed—whether you’re brand new or have been in the industry for decades.

That level of commitment from leadership isn’t easy to come by, and it’s one of the biggest reasons I feel so grounded here.

3. Surrounded by Experience & Opportunity

One of the most inspiring parts of being at Realty Executives Diversified is the incredible group of veteran agents who have built careers worth admiring. Their experience, knowledge, and dedication to the industry are invaluable—and having the chance to learn from and collaborate with them is something I don’t take for granted.

At the same time, there’s an energy that comes from welcoming new agents to the brokerage. There’s a spirit of mentorship, support, and mutual respect—whether you’re just starting out or have years under your belt. We’re all here to help each other grow, and that creates a truly unique environment.

4. Room to Grow—Without Pressure to Conform

I’ve built my business on personal branding, modern marketing, and building authentic relationships—and at Realty Executives Diversified, that’s encouraged and supported.

There’s no “one-size-fits-all” mold here. Whether you’re a seasoned agent, a new agent, or somewhere in between, you’re given the tools and trust to build your business your way. You’re empowered to do what works best for you.

5. Rooted in Regina, but Forward-Thinking

As someone who’s lived in Regina my whole life, I care deeply about this community. Realty Executives Diversified has a strong local presence, deep roots, and a reputation for excellence—but they’re also not stuck in the past. The tools, technology, and forward-thinking approach they offer keeps me sharp and relevant in an ever-changing market.

6. Because It Feels Like Home

At the end of the day, I chose Realty Executives Diversified because it felt like the right place for me. The people, the leadership, the values, the environment—it just fits. And when something fits, you know it.

This isn’t just a place I work. It’s a place I’m proud to represent.

1) Expert Advice

A licensed Realtor® such as myself has access to local market data and tools to analyze recent sales. This helps you be able to set a competitive price that will attract the largest amount of buyers without undervaluing your property.

2) Market Knowledge

I am constantly staying informed on the current market trends and whether it is a buyer or sellers market which allows me to adjust my strategy accordingly. Insight like this is crucial to make sure our timing is correct and I am able to set realistic expectations.

3) Access to a large network

MLS and its capability and reach is invaluable when you are listing your home. I also have great relationships with other agents in the city and province to help me find you the perfect home, that may not even be on the market yet. I also have relationships with home builders, contractors, designers and much more.

4) Marketing Knowledge & Expertise

I have the marketing knowledge and ability to know how to market your home the most effectively to find you the most amount of buyers. I use professional photography, videography as well as staging tips to help your home stand out among the rest. I am also able to advise on upgrades or staging techniques that will help your homes appeal.

5) Paperwork

Real estate transactions involve extensive paperwork for both parties in a transaction. Knowing how to handle all the paperwork is crucial in being able to ensure nothing is missed or not completed correctly. It is important an agent is aware of such things as disclosures and contingencies. I am also able to recommend the right lawyer to help with your deal. 

6) Negotiation skills

As a licenced Realtor® I am experienced in negotiation and are able to advocate on your behalf, whether you are buying, selling or building a home with a home building company. I am able to stay objective,  helping you make decisions based on strategy rather than sentiment.

As a REALTOR® that has been in the business for 13+ years I have worked for many different brokerages and home builders. I am committed to constantly updating and improving my services. Each client is different and needs individual attention and care. No real estate deal is ever the same. I strive to be able to really go above and beyond for my clients. This is a big time in your life and I don’t ever take that lightly. 

If you or anyone you know is looking for an agent I would love to be part of their real estate journey, no matter how big or small.

If you have lived in Saskatchewan as long as I have (my whole life) you know about our Saskatchewan winters. Although mild at times they can be extremely harsh. While other parts of the world complain about -10, we see temperatures that can dip all the way to -40 (with the windchill) sometimes even colder.

Prepping your home for the winter conditions, especially in Saskatchewan is very important especially when you want to keep your home energy efficient and protected from the harsh conditions which include heavy snow and high winds. 

1) Prepare your exterior - make sure that you are prepped and ready for that first snow fall. It’s normal for us to be in denial about when its happening (yesterday was +20 on an October day) We can never get around it. I am sure by now everyone has moved or removed their potted plants from outside. Trim any trees that may break under the weight of the snow or ice damage your home. Clean gutters, check your roof for damages including any cracks or potential leaks. Make sure you blow out your sprinkers or have a company do that for you. If you have a wood burning fireplace make sure you inspect that for drafts. Also make sure you have shut off and drained any exterior taps. 

2) Attic/Basement - It is always good to check if you have adequate insulation in your attic and to add any more if needed. Check your basement and/or crawl space that may be letting in any cold air. 

3) Furnace and Vents - Make sure your furnace has been serviced by a professional and running efficiently. High efficient furnaces are a great investment especially in Saskatchewan. Replace filters and make sure vents are clear. Using a humidifier is also a great tip especially since the winters can be so dry.

4) Test all your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors - Replace old batteries. I am sure we have all encountered the beeping that seems to only start in the middle of the night when you are sleeping. 

5) Windows and doors - Check for any drafts around your windows and doors. Sometimes you need to add extra caulking to seal any gaps. Also door sweeps are a great addition to exterior doors that might be letting in some extra cold air.

6) Seal your driveway - Sealing will create a barrier that prevents water, snow and ice from penetrating the surface which can cause unnecessary cracks and damage to the driveway.

7)) Prepare for snow removal - Stock up on all your supplies and make sure they are readily available. Even throw that snow brush in trunk for that dreaded first snow fall. Make sure you have some sort of ice melt to protect yourself, your children and any visitors. 

Here is just a few tips to get your home ready for our cold Saskatchewan winters.
