Born and raised in the Cowichan Valley, Brock is a lifelong outdoor enthusiast who spends his spare time exploring every corner of the Valley and the Gulf Islands. He brings an extensive knowledge of Vancouver Island and enjoys all that Island life has to offer – from wineries to fresh seafood and afternoons spent on the ocean.
Brock’s first career was in the forest industry and was comprised of engineering activities throughout British Columbia. Brock’s main focus was on road layout, design and timber evaluations allowing him to master a skill set for recognising potential access, utilisation and value of a specific parcel of land.
A new path forward emerged as Brock pursued his lifelong interest in aviation, obtaining a private pilot license and then returning to college to become a commercial airline pilot. He spent the following 18+ years safely delivering people to their destinations the world over with a constant attention to detail and unwavering ability to remain calm under pressure.
Throughout his previous careers, Brock devoted substantial time to design, construct, buy and sell several homes, develop properties and complete major renovation projects. Upon retiring from the aviation industry, it was the logical progression to convert this genuine interest and previous hobby into a new career in real estate.
Brock’s strengths lay in his vision to recognize a property’s underlying value, whether that be the potential for development, the possibility to renovate, or to simply recognise what it will take to make it yours. His vast experience with the various aspects of real estate, coupled with his desire to attain the best value possible, is the advantage he brings to his clients.
