Your Shuswap and Salmon Arm Real Estate Specialists.
Don Halpenny
Don, born and raised in Saskatchewan, spent many years moving around the country to attend university and for employment opportunities before settling down with his wife Joan and their two sons in Salmon Arm in 1988. This was a great move as Salmon Arm turned out to be the perfect place to raise a family and to live.
While the boys where growing up Don and Joan were very involved with their school and sports activities: Parent advisory committes, hockey, baseball, soccer and downhill skiing in particular. Now that the boys have moved away Don and Joan spend their off times gardening, playing bridge, travelling to new places and visiting family.
Don obtained his Salesperson's license in 1991 and in 1996 went to UBC for additional training to obtain his Broker's license. Prior to joining the Stacer Team Don worked in all aspects of the real estate business including office management.

Heather Ready
Heather relocated to Salmon Arm in 2004 and has come to love the community she now calls home. After 18 years in the financial services field Heather decided it was time for a change. She received her real estate licence shortly after that and started at RE/MAX, working on her own intially and joining the Stacer Team in April 2006. Heather’s experience in the financial sector is a great asset and she enjoys working with people to help them to find their new home - their most valuable investment.
Heather has 2 active teenage daughters who are both very busy with sports and part time jobs. At times she has to be creative to insure they are where they're supposed to be and on time! Both girls play ringette so Heather has been an active volunteer with the Shuswap Ringette Association for the past 3 years as registrar and as a team manager. When she is not on the bench you can find her in the stands cheering. In the summer months the sports change to softball and golf.
Heather herself likes to stay active and plays ladies slowpitch, golf and enjoys alot of walking and hiking. She loves to spend time on the lake, exploring all the Shuswap has to offer.
Tracy Stacer
Tracy began working in the real estate industry in 1997, joined Jeff full time in 1999 and prefers to work in the background as the administrator and technical person on the team. It's this support which allows Jeff to focus on his clients without constant distractions from other aspects of the business and it's a partnership that has proven to be a success.
Tracy works with Jeff at the office and at home as they juggle their schedules between work, community and raising their family. Skiing as a family in the winter, sitting on the edge of a soccer field in the summer and all the while trying to juggle the busy lives of teenagers can make it challenging to fit everything in but she still finds time to work with Shuswap Theatre, the local live theatre group, and to wander through the Art Gallery to check out the lastest display by a local artist. "It's a gift to live in the beautiful Shuswap area and to raise your family here. We make a conscious effort to give back to the community and to support the things that make it such a great place to live."
