About Me

Hi, I’m Dallas Posthumus. I’m a RE/MAX Real Estate Broker and have been working in the industry for over 7 years. I was born in Calgary, but I’ve been calling Port Stanley my home since the age of 5. I love engaging with our local community and helping people find their dream home. Whether it’s helping first time homebuyers or helping investors build their portfolio, I love my job because I’m able to help others achieve their goals.

I truly believe that buying or selling a home is one of the most important decisions someone can make in their life and my top priority is always providing the best service I can to my clients. I make it a point to always be available for them, whether it’s by phone, text or email.

After a long day of work, there’s nothing I love more than hitting the hockey rink, baseball diamond, volleyball court, or golf course depending on the time of year. It’s a great way for me to connect with the community and have some fun.
