My approach emphasizes the importance of effective marketing, skilled negotiation, and a thorough understanding of the market for successful real estate transactions. Having invested in properties since I was 19, and with experience in building and renovating homes, I am passionate about real estate and committed to sharing my insights with clients.

My interests include coaching children&#8217;s soccer and exploring outdoor trails. A craft beer enthusiast, I co-founded Steel &amp; Oak Brewing Company in 2013. Prior to real estate, I managed a painting business while earning my Bachelor of Business Administration from Simon Fraser University, experiences that have enriched my skill set in serving my clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Passionate about our city, I bring a positive and enthusiastic attitude to my work, aiming to make your next real estate transaction both enjoyable and rewarding.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DENNY DUMAS &#8211; Realtor\u00ae<\/h4>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id24781_aca269-59 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id24781_aca269-59 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id24781_aca269-59 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:0px;padding-bottom:0px;grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr) minmax(0, 2fr);}.kb-row-layout-id24781_aca269-59 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id24781_aca269-59 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id24781_aca269-59 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id24781_aca269-59 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-row-layout-right-golden kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column24781_46e08f-ee\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"mailto:denny@gdrealestate.ca\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Denny-Dumas-Square-Headshot-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-56618\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Denny-Dumas-Square-Headshot-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Denny-Dumas-Square-Headshot-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Denny-Dumas-Square-Headshot-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Denny-Dumas-Square-Headshot-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Denny-Dumas-Square-Headshot-1140x1140.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Denny-Dumas-Square-Headshot.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Denny Dumas (604) 761-6202 | <a href=\"mailto:denny@gdrealestate.ca\"><span style=\"display:inline;unicode-bidi:bidi-override;direction:rtl;\" class=\"\">ac.etatselaerdg<span style=\"display:none;\">obfsctd<\/span>&#64;ynned<\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column24781_a5387a-7e\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<p>Co-Founder of The Garbutt + Dumas Real Estate Team, I bring over a decade of experience to assist you in your next purchase or sale. For me, real estate transcends transactions\u2014it&#8217;s about making a positive impact on families and providing insightful education throughout the process. My dedication to fostering long-lasting relationships distinguishes my approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Raised in a competitive, athletic family with four older siblings, I embraced values like discipline, accountability, humility, confidence, and teamwork, largely through sports. My passion for basketball led me to an NCAA scholarship post-high school, laying the groundwork for skills that have proven invaluable in real estate. My work ethic, which I consider my superpower, combined with comprehensive industry knowledge gained from investing, renovating, and assisting over 1000 families, enables me to deliver an exceptional customer experience. I prioritize innovative marketing, educational resources, and transparent communication to ensure informed decisions and optimal outcomes for every client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">One of my favourite things about my career is the deep familiarity I&#8217;ve developed with the various cities, neighbourhoods, and amenities across the areas we serve, from the North Shore to Langley and Maple Ridge.

I strongly believe in the effectiveness of marketing, skilled negotiation, and comprehensive market knowledge for successful real estate transactions. Since 19, I\u2019ve been investing in properties, and I\u2019ve also built and renovated homes. I\u2019m passionate about real estate and enjoy sharing my experiences with clients. I offer sellers targeted marketing and launch strategies, and help buyers make informed decisions to find the ideal home for their lifestyle. Ultimately, my goal is to help clients achieve their real estate dreams and secure the best possible outcomes.\r\n\r\nRaised in Burnaby and having lived 15 years in New Westminster, I now reside in North Vancouver with my wife Diana, our three children, two dogs, and a cat. I coach kids soccer and love exploring the outdoor trails with my dogs. I&#8217;m a craft beer enthusiast and co-founded Steel &amp; Oak Brewing Company in 2013. Before my real estate career, I ran a painting business while earning a Bachelor of Business Administration from Simon Fraser University. This varied background has given me a unique skill set that I apply to every client.\r\n\r\nI am passionate about this city and bring a positive, enthusiastic approach to my work.
