My passion is sharing local Whistler knowledge with my client’s on their real estate journey. By working together, we can make the journey enjoyable and (dare I say it) fun! Whether you’re a bachelor looking for a holiday home or a family looking to relocate, or an investor, there truly is something for every individual style and interest in our charming village. Recharge with a spa day or get your blood pumping with our world-class mountain biking - the choice is yours.

It’s with much pride that I play a part in ensuring every client leaves our resort with a positive experience. Not only with expert knowledge about the properties they are viewing, but also the surrounding area and everything there is to offer. It's important for me as your real estate agent to understand and respect the unique requirements for you or your family.  A “get to know you” meeting – either virtual or in person so we can pinpoint the type of property that will suit your personal tastes and lifestyle is the place to start.

I have been a Whistler resident for the past 38 years, and a Whistler Realtor for the past 26 years, I have served an array of both international and Canadian home buyers and sellers. Real estate is no longer a job for me, but a passion and lifestyle to call my own. Finding the dream home for my clients often comes with challenges, much like every big decision we undertake in life. But there’s no better reward than watching you walk away with a smile as you tell me how much you ADORE your new space.

My calm demeanour is my secret weapon to take the overwhelm out of your search. Quietly at work behind the scenes, I'm here to get you the best deal possible, find the property that may not be listed yet, and make sure your entire process is seamless from start to finish.

"We work with Laura for past 20 yrs. Laura is extremely professional and knowledgeable realtor who knows the Whistler real estate market very very well. She is extremely helpful and pleasant to work with. We bought our first property in Whistler with Laura 20 yrs ago and since then she helped us with our real estate needs on multiple occasions. She knows the business very well.  We highly recommend her to anyone needing strong representation and awesome realtor."

Thank you, Laura!

"Laura recently helped us by our first condo in Whistler.  In all of my buying and selling in my life (5 properties) she has definitely been the most professional and easy to deal with. She was very professional and efficient, which is essential in the fast-paced market of Whistler.   Her experience in this market alleviated a lot of stress of buying and we really appreciated her guidance throughout.  Even though we were out of town, we always knew what was coming up next.  We would highly recommend her services and experience for any size of property purchase in Whistler and beyond."

"My husband and I bought our Whistler property in November 2021 with Laura. Her experience and knowledge of the area was instrumental in securing the property in a highly competitive market. She was easy to work with, diligent and got results. We would absolutely recommend her!"

"Laura Barkman helped me find my first place in Whistler and then helped me sell it 10 years later. For first time or inexperienced buyers, she knows the answers and never makes you feel like you are asking a silly question. She is very attentive and responds promptly to any queries. She guided us completely through the process, sending us reminders of important dates and kept us on schedule. Her experience is so valuable and she has all the tech resources and good advice to help you sell your home! I would definitely use her again!"
