About

Introducing Cindy Olson: 

Cindy moved from Edmonton, Alberta to Victoria, British Columbia in 2003 with her husband Rob.

Cindy has over 18 years of retail experience with Sears Canada where the best part of her job was building relationships and assisting in satisfying her customer’s needs.  These years of sales in both the furniture and appliance departments created an enthusiasm for service and built a strong work ethic, dedication and a drive to succeed.

Cindy and Rob currently live in the Westshore municipality and are proud to call that community home.  When Cindy isn’t working, she and her husband really enjoy golfing and the many hiking trails that Bear Mountain has to offer.

Cindy joined the Pemberton Holmes real estate brokerage in 2018 and is proud to be a REALTOR® with this esteemed group of professionals.  Pemberton Holmes was founded in Victoria in 1887 and has been serving the local communities all over Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands ever since.  The history, longevity and community focus of Pemberton Holmes made the choice to become a part of the team an easy one for Cindy.

When you work with Cindy you can expect a “partnership” approach with a heavy focus on customer service.  Cindy strives to exceed her client’s expectations and treats every interaction as an opportunity to serve.

If you have questions about the real estate market, or you want to know what your home might be worth, Cindy can be contacted directly anytime at 250-858-1319 or cindyolson321@gmail.com
