Visiting the Gulf Islands How do you decide which ones to see first? The islands share West Coast natural beauty and weather, and a culture forged from generations of independentthinking residents, yet each has its own character, history and amenities, which are readily discerned through a visit or two. They range substantially in size, population and services, but all of them offer safe, rural environments and a sense of getting away from it all — not that they don’t hum with activity on weekends during the height of visitor season. Read about each island on our website gulfislandstourism.com - and find what piques your interest. You can plan a trip around one of the many special events. The Gulf Islands have long been described as a place to relax, rejuvenate and recharge from the hectic pace of today’s busy life. And the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve offers a host of incredible experiences for you to accomplish those goals. Surrounded by growing urban centres, the islands are an oasis of sorts, offering an opportunity to connect with the landscape and revel in the life that thrives within it. Whatever you seek and whatever you discover, we know that once you’ve seen the Gulf Islands for yourself, you’ll stop wondering why they’re such a celebrated part of the world.

If you are thinking of buying or selling, now is the time! Selling - don’t change a thing Before making any changes, renovating or even painting, give me a call. I can help you assess what needs to be done to have your home ready for the market quickly.

Buying - call me for a free home evaluation COMMENTS FROM PAUL’S CLIENTS: I personally had a lot of dealings with Paul in the past few months of this year. One was a personal move where our landlord sold their place; the other was an estate property. Paul earned my trust through his thoughtful ways, professional knowledge, creative thinking and writing and his compassionate heart. He made both transactions stressfree which I am very thankful for as dealing with one property can be draining enough never mind two! Paul kept me informed at all times and honoured my feelings during these times. I was impressed with his interaction and respectful ways he spoke of the other realtors on island. This is a credit to him. I wish Paul continue success and would not hesitate to refer him in the future. - SUSANNAH DEVITT “My husband and I really enjoyed working with Paul. He understood right away what we were looking for in a home and

made it happen in a short, stressfree time period. His patience and understanding along with his knowledge of Salt Spring Island paired with his experience of house building and renovations, makes him the best realtor to deal with. HIGHLY recommend! - MICHELLE BOIZARD “We enjoyed working with Paul as he was respectful of our feelings during this time as this was our final move. He was eager, efficient and accommodating. He was there on closing day to lend a hand. We appreciated his service very much. - WALTER & DONNA MORT When we made a decision to purchase a home on Salt Spring Island, we traveled to island and started our search by arranging to meet with Paul Zolob of Royal LePage. This was our bestand smartest move! Paul exceeded our expectations with his level of service. He was at available at all times to answer our questions and to drive us to every conceivable location to view properties

We can’t thank you enough for your professionalism, expertise, and hard work in helping us find the perfect home to raise our family. We love our home, the neighborhood, and the community! As we started to look (from out of province), the mailings you sent, along with your website, were extremely helpful as we were going through our initial decision process. After we decided to move to Salt Spring your experience in this market really came into play. Your knowledge

helping us find the kind of home we required. Paul’s friendly demeanor, his attention to detail, patience and willingness to go the extra mile to make us feel like a Salt Spring Island family made our house hunting experience a genuine pleasure. Today Paul is no longer “just” a realtor to us, but a good friend! In our opinion if you are interested in top-notch service from a knowledgeable realtor Paul Zolob of Royal LePage would be your best and wisest choice. - MARK FEDIKOW & RUTH BEZyS

of the neighborhoods, home construction, schools and attention to our other needs (inspectors and insurance providers), was so valuable and helped guide us in making the right decisions. - GReG & TRISH STAIceSku We contacted Paul because of his extensive knowledge of the island and its communities and his expertise in evaluating a home’s ‘bones’. He didn’t disappoint. Paul took the time to show us properties at both ends of our price range and in all the communities on the island so we could evaluate for ourselves, which were most desirable within our price range. Once the decision was made, Paul helped us understand the history and construction of the home we chose, and then made the buying process seamless and hassle-free. We definitely recommend Paul to any prospective buyer or seller. - GRAnT GRAYSOn & eLenA Dunn
