When it comes to buying or selling your home, DFH Real Estate is a valuable source of local real estate knowledge and experience. We are proud of the trust we’ve earned from thousands of families on Southern Vancouver Island for over 60 years. We believe in bringing the highest level of integrity, expertise and professionalism to each client relationship.

The DFH Difference: Build Your Real Estate Business With Us

Can over 60 years of experience in make a difference? Our REALTORS® enjoy working with one of the most established and respected brands in the business that is not only highly recognized throughout our neighbourhoods, but also across the country and globally for the higher standards in everything we do.

Local company or franchise—is there really a difference? We believe there’s a big difference. Locally owned and managed means we share the same neighbours, and we make our decisions without having to clear it with some head office in Toronto or elsewhere.

DFH Real Estate offers a very unique working experience—DFH REALTORS® have a 60+ year reputation for caring about their colleagues and they practice the real estate profession in a collaborative, helpful, team-like (and yes, fun) atmosphere. We often hear “I never feel like I’m working alone because there’s always someone to help”.

At DFH, we believe that a successful, fulfilling real estate career is about balance. We encourage our REALTORS® to be fully engaged with their communities and spend as much quality time as they can on their favourite hobbies and other pursuits when they are not working.  DFH is also about families—we’ve recognized that great realtors have the full support of their families and we do what we can to ensure that support. This includes fun company events for our agents, staff and their families. It's no surprise that our company Christmas dinner is highly anticipated every year to celebrate the past year’s success but to gather socially and enjoy each other’s company.

The DFH difference includes full-time, “non-competing” managing broker who is available for support and advice 24/7. A fully staffed conveyance department means that your contracts are filed properly and sent to the lawyers or notaries on time. Our reception staff is trained to make your clients feel at home. We are always searching for technological solutions to make our REALTORS® more efficient.

Testimonials for DFH Real Estate

Reputation, community involvement and training were my keys for selecting DFH as a real estate company to work with.

—Dennis Guevin

I considered all well-established real estate companies and ended up with a short list of four companies to investigate further.  DFH Real Estate Ltd. provided exactly what I needed. DFH had and has the flexibility in their training to give their new Realtors what they need. This combined with an unparalleled reputation and strong community involvement made my decision easy and the only one. Since I have been with DFH, I have seen our training program evolve into a program that works and is tangible to what a new Realtor needs to do to be doing to be successful.

The training aspect was particularly important to me. I had 15 years of solid sales experience with a major oil company. What I really wanted was help or training with things like assessing the value of a home, completing a listing agreement and a contract of purchase and sale, doing open houses, developing real estate systems, ideas to find new clients, etc.

—Dennis Guevin, DFH Real Estate

I made the decision to join DFH because of the people. It makes a world of difference to be surrounded by helpful, positive individuals who genuinely care about your success. Since becoming part of the DFH family as a realtor, my real estate business has flourished beyond my expectations for the first few years of the business. This is due to the supportive environment they provide.

DFH Real Estate is not just a brokerage, it is a community of professionals who are happy to help, guide and teach. Our managing broker, dedicated brokerage staff, and my fellow colleagues have been invaluable resources on my journey. Their willingness to share knowledge and their commitment to my growth have allowed me to thrive in this competitive industry.

What sets DFH apart for me is its deep-rooted commitment to our local community. As a locally owned and operated brokerage, they understand the importance of giving back to the Southern Vancouver Island community that we serve. This community-minded approach aligns perfectly with my values. I am proud to be associated with a company that prioritizes making a positive impact beyond real estate transactions.
