WHO IS RUSSELL NUGENT

I was raised in South Delta Ladner and come from 4 generations of Ladner farmers on my mother’s side. My Great Grandfather Harry Mitchell settled the Ladner family farm in the mid 1800’s in an area north of the Massey tunnel close to Deas Island Park. On my step fathers side are three generations of fishermen and his family waterfront property on River Road West, South Delta Ladner was settled by my Grandfather over 100 years ago.

I graduated from South Delta Ladner High in 1964 and joined the Royal Bank in the fall of that year. During my time with them, I took finance, economics, sales and business courses so that I could advance through their management training system. After 19 years of great experiences from accounting, to management positions I wanted a change and left them in 1982.

That spring I bought a commercial fish boat from a family friend, and fished salmon, herring and halibut. I got involved in the politics of the industry. Obviously I was doing something right! The Federal Government appointed me to the Fraser Panel section of the Pacific Salmon Commission representing Canada, negotiating fishing rights and strategies with the USA.

With the industry in turmoil and the financial out look bleak, I decided that I wanted to return to a professional career. In 1991 I took the Real Estate Course by correspondence, allowing me to continue fishing and passed the final exam with 92%! I was proud of myself! I started with Realty World a teaching company in 1992. When I was confident in my ability, I joined RE/MAX.

In February 1995 I joined RE/MAX PROGROUP covering South Delta Ladner and Tsawwassen. RE/MAX stands alone in giving clients the awareness that the company does have “Above the Crowd” agents in ethics, professional quality and pride in their ability. I have received all of the Re/Max awards, Presidents Club, Executive Club and 100% Club, every year! They relate to achieving high standards in business, and sales volumes.

I live in South Delta Ladner, and Ladner has been my home for over 55 years. I support the South Delta Ladner & Tsawwassen Minor/Junior Hockey, Lacrosse and Baseball teams. I am a member of various hunting organizations and support fund raising efforts for wildlife enhancement. I also contribute to the Children’s Miracle Network! $20 of every sale I make is given to the Vancouver Children’s Hospital.
I LOVE my business, and I empathize with you and help you get through all the turmoil, stress, and emotion, that accompanies the selling and buying of a home. The majority of my business is from repeat clients and referrals, which speaks for itself. My clients are like my family, and they all receive “Above the Crowd” treatment. Please allow me to invite you into my family of very special people living in South Delta Ladner & Tsawwassen!
