Find the Right Property to Meet Your Ideal Lifestyle
Waterfront
Vancouver Island’s waterfront offers endless possibilities for those fortunate enough to call the Island home from breathtaking scenery to recreational pursuits and for those looking for island living at its finest there are still affordable waterfront properties to satisfy the need. With rivers, lakes, streams, and 3,400 km of oceanfront, the Island’s different shorelines, and vistas offer an array of high-bank and walk-on waterfront properties from which to enjoy island living at its finest.
Luxury
“Great comfort and extravagant living” – the definition of luxury and a fair description of life in one of Vancouver Island’s luxury properties. Though we each have a different perspective of what luxury truly is, properties that fall into this category on Vancouver Island encompass anything from acreages and executive homes to ocean-view and waterfront residences and continue to be an affordable and good value option, especially when compared to luxury homes in neighbouring Vancouver and Victoria markets.
Acreage
Whether you are looking for elbow room and privacy for your dream home or for land to raise animals and grow fruits and vegetables there are endless opportunities to own acreage on Vancouver Island and the moderate climate year-round makes anything possible with regards to how you use that acreage.
Farm
Vancouver Island is a natural choice for farming and approximately 10% of all small Canadian farms with 10 acres or less are located on the Island. The moderate climate offers perfect growing conditions for a plethora of produce from berries to organic vegetables, and ideal living & operating conditions for a variety of farming ventures from poultry farming to wineries. In addition to the climate, the affordability makes operating a small scale farm on Vancouver Island a viable option for those looking for a life change, pursuing a different business venture, or even retiring, and the fact that the Island community is very supportive of local produce makes it even more attractive. For the price of an apartment in some of the major cities, you could feasibly set yourself up with farmland on Vancouver Island.
Recreational
Mother nature’s playground, Vancouver Island offers a host of recreational activities both on and offshore many of which can be enjoyed all year round from boating, diving, and whale watching to hiking, biking, and golfing; while skiers will also not be disappointed as snow conditions at the Island’s ski resorts are some of the best in the province. Where else can you dive in the morning, hike in the afternoon, and ski in the evening without straying far from home?
Boating
With 3,400 km of oceanfront, Vancouver Island offers some of the world’s most unspoiled coastline and stunning scenery from sheltered waterways to hidden inlets and hundreds of Islands all waiting to be explored. Whether you captain a kayak or a pleasure craft or prefer to be part of a crew, the boating enthusiast will never tire of the countless offshore boating and sailing opportunities. And with many waterfront properties offering their own docks and moorage, it couldn't be more convenient to cast off for an enjoyable day on the water.
Golf
Vancouver Island boasts over 40 golf courses, some of which were designed by the golf masters themselves, catering to all skill levels with the most play occurring on the 12 championship courses situated along a 250 km stretch of the island referred to as the Vancouver Island Golf Trail running from Victoria to Campbell River. Offering exceptional views of an exceptional island many courses are open all year round as a result of the moderate climate, so it’s your snow shovel that can be winterized - not your golf clubs!

Testimonials
I would highly recommend Jahelka Real Estate Group to help you find the perfect property. I was so impressed at how they handled everything! Our calls, texts, and emails were answered promptly, and they went out of their way to make sure we found exactly what we wanted. I feel they went above and beyond to make the deal work for us. If you are looking for a top-notch realtor, go no further, you've found them. Jahelka Group!! ~ Donna Lovett
If the professionalism, expertise, and friendliness of Zach Simpson is anything to judge by, the Jahelka Real Estate Group figures amongst the finest real estate groups in all of North America. Not only did he give very generously of his time and energy to help us find a new home, but he did so with the utmost care and attention. I could not recommend his services more highly! The only thing more elusive than the perfect home is the perfect real estate advisor - we found him! Thank you Zach for an outstanding experience on Vancouver Island. ~ George Backhouse
I can't say enough good about this brilliant, skilled, easy to work with, powerhouse of a woman! This was our first time buying a home and Carlee came recommended to me from a colleague. We simply couldn't have asked for a better experience. From her keen eye, while we looked at homes, to her straightforward honesty while reviewing our options and sharing her insights, to her efficiency and organization with managing all of the negotiations and paperwork, this woman will bring your home buying adventure to the next level. As DIY'ers, we often like to find our own "team" of people and do our own research first. After many failed attempts at consolidating a team of home inspectors, lawyers, mortgage specialists, etc, we finally started following the mantra "Just go with who Carlee recommended!" She endorses fantastic people with similar work ethic and we were so happy with everyone she referred us to along the way. After closing, we had some issues which she promptly dealt with. This woman is dedicated and passionate about her career and that is exactly why she excels in it.
TL;DR -- Do yourself a HUGE favour with your next home purchase -- choose Carlee! We will every time, for the rest of our lives. ~ Jessica Callin
Amazing R/E team with tons of experience in the local market. We have worked with Zach and he has demonstrated an outstanding level of professionalism. Very detailed oriented and thorough. Being a sophisticated negotiator, he was able to act very quickly and secure an amazing property in a tough and highly competitive market. Zach is a very energetic, kind, and upbeat person. It is always a pleasure working with him. Would recommend him to anyone looking to secure a property in Nanaimo! ~ Damir Akhmetchin
My husband and I have actually had two experiences with Jahelka Real Estate Group. Our first encounter was with Charles Bentall, who was helping our son and his wife find a home in the Nanaimo area. He worked with them to procure a home in Ladysmith. We met Charles when our kids wanted us to come and see the home they were interested in. We were impressed with his manner and after our kids completed their deal, we contacted him to ask if his company would be interested in the sale of our condo in Nanaimo. Charles arranged for us to meet Devin Jahelka who organized the sale of our property. The sale was done in a very efficient and professional manner. I definitely would recommend this company to anyone looking for a realtor to buy or sell property in the Nanaimo area. ~ Doreen Friesen
My husband and I began looking long-distance for our dream home on the Island and I happened to begin talking to Devin. I felt comfortable right away and made plans to meet with him. My husband and I soon found what we were looking for in a home. Devin was wonderful, he made the process so smooth and easy. We would use him again anytime for a home purchase or sale and have already recommended him to friends and family. ~ Sherry Law
I have worked with the Jahelka Real Estate Group for multiple transactions now and am beyond pleased with all experiences! They know how to get the job done!! They are very knowledgeable and are on top of things right from the beginning. They have no problem answering any and all questions and in a very timely fashion ... and trust me, I ask a lot of questions :) If you're looking for a solid realtor for your next real estate requirement, I would strongly recommend the Jahelka Real Estate Group!! ~ Michael Chiorando
The Jahelka Group was fantastic! I felt supported throughout the whole process. Buying a house is one of the biggest decisions I've made to date and Carlee made sure all my needs were met. She was knowledgeable, professional, and patient. I highly recommend Carlee and her team! ~ Daniella
My husband and I have bought and sold six houses over the last 30 years, all in different communities throughout BC. Carlee came highly recommended by the selling realtor of our last house. We were not disappointed. Over our 2 month journey in the hot Nanaimo real estate market she helped us remain calm and focused. Carlee was extremely professional and always available. ~ Tracey
Carlee was very professional in every way. I was impressed with her market knowledge. She knew all the listings and details about each without having to stop and look anything up. She kept us well informed all the way through the purchase and continued with follow-up after we moved in to ensure everything was right. ~ Scott Hunter
It was a pleasure working with an agent who conducted every aspect of our dealings professionally. Responses to questions were prompt and detailed. Getting depreciation reports when available allowed me to narrow the list of properties and to go in as a more informed buyer. ~ Kerry V
We set an unrealistic goal for Carlee to achieve. She met our goals and surpassed our expectations in every way possible. She was extremely professional, but yet very personable. I was very skeptical at first with using a realtor, but after my experience with Carlee, I would never sell a house without one. I highly recommend Carlee and her team. ~ Jeremy
Devin is very organized and has excellent communication skills, and he gave us peace of mind with his competency as we navigated a complex real estate purchase from 3 provinces away. We highly recommend the Jahelka Group; they are professional, friendly, and effective. ~ Kyle Friesen
