In 2018, Kevin and Layla became partners in their local real estate brokerage, with offices in Nelson, Kaslo, and Nakusp. Their leadership reflects a strong commitment to professionalism, mentorship, and the long-term growth of the Kootenay real estate community. Being both business partners and life partners allows them to offer a seamless and highly collaborative experience for every client they work with.
Local Knowledge Built Over a Lifetime
Born and raised in the Kootenays — with Kevin a third-generation Nelson local — their connection to the area goes far beyond real estate. Their understanding of neighbourhoods, zoning, development potential, and the lifestyle that draws people to the region allows them to guide buyers and sellers with genuine insight and confidence.
Real-World Experience Beyond Sales
What truly sets Kevin and Layla apart is their hands-on experience in every stage of real estate ownership and development. They have personally:
Bought and sold their own homes
Subdivided and serviced property
Built a home from the ground up
Having navigated these experiences themselves, they understand not only the details and depth of the work involved but also the emotional side of buying and selling.
Awards & Recognition
Over the years, Kevin and Layla have received numerous industry awards and recognition for sales volume, professionalism, and client service. Their business continues to grow largely through referrals and repeat clients — a testament to the relationships they build and the trust they earn.
Results Built on Relationships
For Kevin and Layla, success is measured not only in numbers but in the lasting relationships formed along the way. Buying or selling a home is often one of life’s biggest transitions, and their goal is to provide steady guidance, honest communication, and a smooth, supportive experience.
