Lina Horner, Your Calgary REALTOR®
In this city, new homes being built, old properties are being refurbished and places that one wouldn't think were ever home potential becoming some of the hottest real estate in the Calgary market. In an exciting atmosphere like this, it's understandable that some people take on the financial responsibilities of a home without much thought to how it's going to affect their finances in the ensuing years. However, such unguided enthusiasm can end up making owning a Calgary home into a burden instead of an enriching experience.
One of the reasons you might be considering a Calgary REALTOR® is that you don't want to undergo the stress and confusion that many people who "go solo" in the Calgary home market experience. You want someone who will introduce you to the exciting world of Calgary home hunting and guide you through the less exciting world of Calgary real estate purchase paperwork. Let's be honest - while picking out a home is all very well, the most crucial part of the purchase process can be excruciating for the most patient!
I'm an educated professional with years of experience in this market. I've seen a lot of tricks and turns of the Calgary real estate industry and make a point of keeping informed about the market, even during the slow times. This is how I gained my experience with most Calgary neighbourhoods and the properties within them. I am a member of Calgary's RE/MAX House of Real Estate, a group of professionals who believe in providing the best services possible to their clients.
If you're looking to relocate into or within this area, I have the knowledge and experience to help you find the right home and save you tens of thousands of dollars with little wear and tear on your time and emotional energy.
This website gives you the computerized facts about the Calgary homes you are interested in, but I can give you much more. I will give you the personal attention of someone who is truly interested in what you really need most from the tools I have provided. If you would like to know anything about my services, or if you'd like to hear about the local market from a human voice, please contact me at your convenience.
Lina's Personal History
I grew up in Grande Cache, a little town about 200 kilometres northwest of Jasper, AB. I moved to Calgary in 1995 where I attended the University of Calgary, earning a Bachelor of Arts. In 1998, I joined the Royal Bank as a student, but stayed on well past graduation. During the eight years I worked with the Royal Bank, I spent the last four as a mortgage specialist.
As a Royal Bank Mortgage Specialist, I received in-depth training about the art of financing and real estate in general. Soon, I developed a passion for the Calgary real estate industry. I believe real estate is an exciting and dynamic world that demands the best of its members. I believe you must have both passion and drive to carve out a successful career.
In September 2006, I left RBC to invest in real estate full time with Calgary RE/MAX and allow myself the opportunity to travel. In between investments, I managed to travel to Indonesia, Japan and Europe. I spent the spring/summer of 2007 in Alkmaar, North Holland, a beautiful little city 40 kms northwest of Amsterdam.
I love Calgary both for its bustle and its proximity to escape into the outdoors. I also enjoy being close to family and friends.
What are my extra curricular activities? In the summer of 2008 I participated in the Calgary Dragon Boat Races as a member of Jacob's Wishmaker's the team supporting Children's Wish Foundation. I am also a member of the Calgary Millennium Rotary Club an organization that fundraises and volunteers year round supporting both local and international charities.
