Donald St Germain

Born in Langford, and currently residing in Saanich close to the University of Victoria, Don, and his wife along with their two children and French bulldog Joey enjoy life in a 1970s house they are bringing up to modern living. Don was raised in a family with little extra funds to spare, and volunteers his time helping others that are in vulnerable positions with his ''Thirty Minute Project''. To take advantage of his spare time, Don restores old VW cars, donates refurbished computers to families in need, and enjoys travelling the world with his family. Within six months of graduating from Belmont High School, Don created and grew a successful computer chain expanding to seven province wide stores that became a household name. Growing it into a multi-million dollar grossing company financed his entry into real estate and investment properties, and thoroughly taught him the many ups and downs of entrepreneurship at a young age. As a result Don is very financially and technically inclined and uses this knowledge to implement many original and unique aspects into his real estate career. Don focuses on his clients rather than the commissions, one of the primary reasons for his success. The selling and buying process should be a very exciting, enjoyable and comfortable process, a belief that Don holds true. The majority of Don's business over the last 13 years is referral based, a consequence of his paramount honesty, integrity and accountability to his clients. He's a member of Profit Magazine’s Top 100 fastest growing companies, and has been honoured to win several awards including Young Entrepreneur of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year (twice), and Top 40 Under 40 (at age 30). “I love receiving thank you cards from clients and knowing their real estate experience was a sensational and positive part of their life. I don’t need an alarm clock – passion for my work and the new challenges the day brings wakes me up early every morning!”
