No Saskatoon realtor has been able to completely escape the softness of the local market, but a few savvy veterans, such as Richard Reimer, are finding ways for their clients to transcend it. “With the challenging economy and new regulations on mortgages, it has created very difficult conditions for first time buyers here,” Reimer says. “I deal with this by keeping in close contact with the mortgage brokers and bankers to keep myself updated with any new information for my buyers.”

By eliminating for his clients much of the stress involved in the buying and selling processes, Reimer has made a lasting impression on Boyes Group’s growing roster of clients. After joining the company in 2017, Reimer has spent the last two years as its top producer.
