Don Defeo
Realtor®, Team Leader
Don is one of the few active realtors who was a founding member of RE/MAX way back in 1988 and has consistently been a top producer ever since. Although technically not “old” he could be described as “very experienced” with approximately 30 years of Vernon and area real estate experience. Don’s hard work ethic and commitment to customer service evolved his real estate business from busy realtor, to busy realtor with assistant(s), to the present team structure to better serve the needs of buyers and sellers while still providing personalized service. When not assisting clients with their real estate needs Don can usually be found either at home or at Silver Star with wife Sue and children Jacob, Leah, Sarah and Crystal (Landon, Penelope and Piper). Although client and family needs dominate the majority of Don's time he has been known to “knock off” the odd time for some water sports, snow sports, or other recreation.
