Jay Blackford

MORE THAN A TRANSACTION
IT'S YOUR LIFE AND WE GET THAT

Jay Blackford, like many, is a former Albertan who moved to the Okanagan for the lifestyle and opportunity, knowing this community was a great place to raise his two children, Liam and Gabby (now 17 and 21). It’s been nearly 17 years since that move, and he is now well established in the business and real estate community.
Drawing on strong negotiation skills, a marketing background, and personal experience buying residential homes and revenue properties in the Okanagan, Jay has built a reputation as a small business owner deeply involved with the community, charities, and local sports organizations. This translates into a reliable and successful real estate career.
Jay works closely with out-of-town clients using virtual tours to educate and communicate the many real estate pockets in the region before they even arrive. He prides himself on working tirelessly for his clients, leveraging local market knowledge, technology, and every tool available to find homes that truly fit their needs.

We chose to list our home with Jay and Bree after interviewing 2 other agents and have not regretted our decision. Jay and Bree are attentive, responsive, and highly knowledgeable of the market. They immediately saw and appreciated the unique features of our home and created a marketing plan that highlights these to the right potential buyers. One of them usually attends showings, if the buyers agents agree, as they know our home intimately and can easily answer any questions. Although our home hasn’t yet sold, we have no doubt that Jay and Bree are the best agents to sell it in the current highly competitive market. We highly recommend listing with these two professionals who clearly love what they do. Sharon & Gary Peterson

I am beyond grateful to Jay and Bree for their hard work, dedication, and care in selling my property in Kelowna. From the start, they treated my property as if it were theirs, taking care of every detail and guiding me with patience and kindness. Their market knowledge is incredible, but what really stands out is their genuine care for their clients. I felt understood, supported, and truly valued. Jay and Bree, thank you for making this experience so positive and memorable. I couldn't have asked for better agents, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for not only expertise but also warmth and integrity. They are simply the best 🌟

Bree went above and beyond to help us find our perfect home. There were three other bids on our home when we finally found the one we loved. Bree walked us through and did her magic and the seller accepted our offer. I am so greatful for the work she put in to make our dream come true. 🫶 She is the best!

Jay and Bree were very helpful when it came to the purchase of my first home. They handled the heavy lifting and made the process very simple and straight forward for me. They were diligent and in depth with their research to provide me with plenty of information. I felt very comfortable asking them any questions and they made themselves available whenever I wanted to talk or view a house. I would recommend Jay and Bree for anyone looking to purchase a home. They are a great team.

Jay Blackford is a wonderful real estate agent and would recommend him highly to any friends or family. He took a personal approach, getting to know about my lifestyle and how would relate to finding a suitable home as a first time buyer. His expertise were essential to ensure that the whole experience went extremely smoothly. It was a pleasure working with Jay and I still value his friendship and real estate knowledge.

I can't say enough about Jay and Bree! After waisting 4 months with a different realtor, I contacted Jay and quickly was introduced to Bree. In just a couple of weeks we had 4 times the showings and immediate interest because of the Marketing, pictures, drone footage, it was just amazing. In a month, in difficult market times, we had an accepted offer. We were happy and the buyers were happy. Thank you so much Jay, and Bree for your hard work.
