Growing up on a grain and cattle farm in Saskatchewan, Canada, I started working at a very young age. Looking back, I had an amazing childhood filled with hard work, sports, and close friends. We were always busy with my 2 brothers and sister but must of been a lil hilly billy when we’d go to the closest town of 500 people 15 min away and thought we were going to a big city.
Here is a video of our farm, click here.
Despite being a sick kid with an autoimmune condition, I got into health and fitness early and began my career in nutrition with GNC. I owned a franchise for nine years before moving to the US and opening an Anytime Fitness. However, real estate was my true calling.
I purchased my first home at 23 in Saskatoon, SK, and realized real estate was a perfect fit for me. Over seven years, I had over 20 roommates who paid my mortgage, and we had a lot of fun. After selling that home I built a four plex and had way more friends live with me and convinced all my friends to move in. I then started buying properties in Saskatchewan once i figured out how to get financing and then in the US during the crash, becoming a landlord and Realtor in Canada before moving to Scottsdale, AZ, in 2013.
Scottsdale is my home now, and I couldn’t believe how affordable (at the time) and vibrant it was when I moved. This city, with its beauty, parks, restaurants, resorts, and low taxes, has transformed incredibly over the years. I sell real estate full-time and love every aspect of it, from construction and rentals to the process of selling a property and helping people.
I also enjoy creating marketing videos. Make sure to follow me on Instagram at jaybru_homes and let’s connect!
