About Me

Wouldn’t it be great to have a Realtor® with years of marketing, sales, negotiation experience and business savvy all combined with a youthful, energetic and easy going approach to helping you buy or sell a home? When you hire me, that is what you get.

My commitment is to give you, your friends, your family and people that you care about an outrageously satisfying experience when you plan to buy or sell property.  And with the help of great clients, I have delivered on this promise consistently.

Simply put, I have experience and knowledge that my fellow Realtors cannot match. I joined the real estate profession because I felt my experience, knowledge and skill were missing in today’s market. I want to elevate your expectations. I want to impress you. I want you to be satisfied that you worked with the best and that you made the best choice - for you.

The past 48 months has seen the most difficult real estate market in many years. Yet through all of the downs and ups, I have built a solid business working with great people and achieving great results.

My father, Des Desrosiers, was a local athlete and was the first boxer chosen for the 1964 Canadian Olympic Team. From an early age, I learned the being good and honest is important but also how performance comes from hard work and commitment. This philosophy and spirit has driven my business career and my family life. I am content when I feel that I have done my best for my clients and yet I am always striving to improve.

“Dean sold our house in 26 days and considering the current real estate market we were extremely pleased with the way that our house was marketed. Right from the first meeting with Dean he was very helpful and kept us informed at all times. Thanks for the professional and courteous manner in which the complete process was carried out.” Andy & Marilyn
