Joel Brittain
Joel Brittain
Joel Brittain has been a REALTOR® for over 20 years, obtaining his licence in 1994. After spending 15 years with Coast Realty, Joel decided to join the team at 460 Group, admiring their progressive new business model and fresh approach.
Prior to entering the real estate industry, Joel spent time working as a collision appraiser and an insurance adjuster, experiences that were instrumental in developing his service skills and attention to detail. He feels that patience has been key to his success as a realtor, as he recognizes that home buying is a process. Joel promises buyers a non-pushy sales approach, and is focused on listening to each client’s individual needs.
Currently, Joel specializes in residential real estate; however, with a background in property management, he also offers unique expertise to the buyer seeking an income property. When he relocated to Vancouver Island over 20 years ago, Joel traded in the cold Ontario and Alberta winters for the island lifestyle, which he takes full advantage of, enjoying boating, golf and curling in his spare time.
