Featured Neighbourhood: The Hart

by rtown | Dec 18, 2014 | Real Estate, Residential | 0 comments

A scenic drive up the hill north of downtown Prince George leads to the Hart neighbourhood.

The Hart is named after former BC premier John Hart, who championed the construction of Highway 97 into northern BC, connecting Prince George to Dawson Creek.

This neighbourhood is often divided into two main areas: Central Hart and Hart Highlands.

The Hart offers a couple of unusual features for an urban area, including a ski hill that’s great for little learners and a top-rate golf course.

HOMES

The Hart has a broad range of residences, from mobile homes to large, detached houses. Some of the homes here are on larger lots than are typically available downtown, and the quiet residential streets are attractive for families.

Some of Prince George’s most affordable property can be found in the Central Hart, while the Hart Highlands is a prime residential area.

AMENITIES

The main commercial area, accessible from the Hart Highway (97) includes a supermarket, restaurants, a fabric store, a hardware store and more.

Other amenities such as doctors’ and dentists’ offices, a veterinary clinic, schools and a library are available here, meaning it isn’t always necessary to take the short drive downtown to get what you need.

Bus routes service this area. For more information, visit BC Transit.

RECREATION

The Hart Highlands Ski Hill is a popular spot for families in the winter months.

During the summer, the Aberdeen Glen Golf Course is one of the Hart’s biggest attractions. There are also walking trails to explore at the McMillan Creek Regional Park.

This neighbourhood is a convenient location to drive out to some of the area’s best outdoor spots including Ness Lake and Eskers Provincial Park.

Pursuing a successful real estate career in beautiful Prince George has been an amazing opportunity for me. I pride myself on high standards, professionally and ethically, and I work hard to get my clients the results they are looking for. Home renovation projects are a passion of mine, and I enjoy discussing how buyers can adapt properties to suit their needs.

I like to tackle projects that are both creative and technical, and I’m often tinkering with Hot Rods and motorbikes. I also host a local radio show, which has been a great way to express myself. I look forward to the future and to working with you to achieve your real estate goals.

I grew up in Prince George and have always enjoyed what our city has to offer. Whether it be the wild north that surrounds our town or the growing opportunity within the town.

I played a lot of different sports growing up and spent time watching my Dad, and Step-Dad coach , as well as taking on the Coach role myself, I’ve discovered that I like to work with my clients as if we were a team and like any coach, I want to see my team succeed.

I am so thankful to my husband who pushed me to become the person I am today and inspired me to move past my fears and do something I thought was impossible. Ever since then I have been inspired by personal growth and helping others do the same. Through Real Estate, I aim to help people achieve their personal goals along with home-ownership.

So basically – I want to be your Coach to Real Estate.

With a passion for Real Estate, customer service training and an amazing team with years of experience. I know what it takes to champion a client’s needs.

I have had the opportunity to work within the Real Estate industry, under a Realtor, before becoming licensed. Having had this opportunity I was able to learn from an experienced individual how to tackle problems in a professional manner.

Negotiating for some can be a challenge, but with my approach, I aim to protect your wants and needs, use patience, warmth, and authority to get the deal done.

Whether you are buying your first home, selling your property or purchasing the next income property. I can help you negotiate deals, price right, find the right neighborhood and much more.

Like most realtors I began my real estate career doing residential sales, and since I live on a rural property I really enjoy doing the more complicated country property sales.

While I still enjoy helping buyers and sellers with their housing needs I have transitioned over to doing more commercial sales and leasing. I find this both interesting and challenging and feel my skills are well suited to dealing with complicated commercial/industrial/business real estate transactions.

I endeavour to provide exceptional professional service to my clients putting their needs first so they trust me, enjoy dealing with me and recommend me to their friends and acquaintances.

On a personal level I am married with two children, have lived in Prince George since childhood and have always been a real outdoorsman. Prince George has so much to offer, is a great place to raise children and I really enjoy taking the family on camping and fishing trips throughout the Prince George area and our beautiful province.

Innovation and Power – these are two of the words that describe me best. I think outside the box, come up with innovative solutions and always go to bat for my clients. True to my German nature, I am a hard worker and am diligent and passionate about what I do.

I was born and raised in a small village close to Munich, owned and operated a gym there for 12 years, came to BC on an adventurous whim, did the whole “live off the grid” while homeschooling my three wonderful children and running a hobby farm out at Purden Lake, and now I live and breathe real estate here in Prince George after studying at the Sauder School of Business at UBC.

I love PG and living in the North, in particular meeting and building long lasting relationships with people like you.

In my spare time I run on one of our many fabulous trails, go to CrossFit, and I read and listen to inspirational/educational books and podcasts. Most importantly though I love to spend time with my family over long family dinners or while skiing or hiking.

Give me a call, I would love to meet you!

Für meine deutschen Freunde: herzlich willkommen in Prince George! Ich stehe Ihnen sehr gerne jederzeit zur Verfügung falls Sie Fragen im Immobilienbereich haben oder ganz einfach die deutsche Sprache vorziehen. Ich freue mich auf Ihren Anruf!

Garnet Weston

Garnet was born in Victoria, where he lived for sixteen years with a two-year stint in Ottawa. At 18 he decided it was time to venture out on his own to live the “Alberta Dream” moving to Bonnyville, AB. to work in the oil and gas industry, where he remained for two years before returning to Victoria.

After returning to Victoria, Garnet bought his first home with his brother, where the two resided, and worked in the construction industry. During the recession of 2008 Garnet went back to Alberta and spent the next ten plus years as a Wireline Supervisor, traveling between Northern BC and Southern Manitoba. Garnet bought his second home in Grande Prairie in 2012, and his third with his then fiancée, now wife, Karen in Bonnyville in 2014.

Throughout his time in the oil and gas industry, Garnet developed a love for the real estate industry. After experiencing an injury, Garnet could no longer continue in his current career. This was the catalyst that lead him to make a bold decision and he began studying for his real estate license. Once he achieved his license, he immediately began shadowing the best of Northern Lights Realty.

During this time, Garnet and Karen decided it was time to move closer to family. They chose Kelowna BC where they would be closer to their families in Victoria BC. After a short time, they realized Kelowna just wasn’t a fit for them. They knew they wanted somewhere surrounded by nature, that has four seasons where they can enjoy all the different activities each season offers. Somewhere they have a bright future, where they see themselves having a happy and prosperous life. A place their families can come visit them. They chose Prince George, because they believe it offers all that and so much more.

Garnet has learned to love and embrace change; let him put his understanding of big decisions, along with his passion and knowledge of real estate to work for you.
