Confidential Process from Day One
Selling a commercial asset in the Bow Valley is not a volume game. It is a precision exercise. The right buyer, at the right price, through a process that never exposes you to unnecessary risk.
We treat the management of your information with the same seriousness a surgeon brings to the operating table. Before any meaningful information reaches a prospective buyer, a legally binding NDA is executed.
Your business is your livelihood, your team’s livelihood, and the result of years of work. We protect it accordingly. Our sellers never experience the anxiety of wondering who knows what.
✓ NDA executed before data room access is granted
We build institutional-quality CIMs and data rooms for every engagement. A complete deep-dive into your business, its history, its current performance, and its future potential. Buyers receive a document that makes the case for your asset better than you could articulate yourself.
Complex commercial transactions require creative thinking. We have structured deals involving vendor financing, earn-outs, lease-backs, phased acquisitions, and partnership arrangements that got deals across the finish line that a less experienced team would have lost.
Devin and Colby are both founders of Edelweiss Village + Resort in Golden, BC. We are not advisors who talk about development in theory. We are actively doing it, which means we understand development risk, capital structure, permitting, and the realities of bringing a project from land to completion.
We are trained, experienced mediators in commercial transactions. Deals die in the negotiation phase more often than anywhere else. Our ability to navigate tension, manage competing interests, and find structure that works for both parties has saved transactions that should not have survived.
We believe that silence is a form of disrespect. Every client receives regular, substantive updates: detailed summaries of what has happened, what is next, and what requires your attention. You will never have to chase us for information.
Years of genuine relationships with hotel owners, retailers, developers, planners, Parks Canada personnel, municipal officers, lawyers, accountants, and investors across the Bow Valley. When you engage us, you engage every relationship in that network.
A combined background in commercial real estate, professional sport, and active development is rare in any market. What is rarer still is finding two people as committed to the growth of their clients as they are to their own.
Devin has spent his career at the intersection of commercial real estate and active development in the Canadian mountain west, with a particular depth of expertise in the Canmore market. He knows this town’s commercial landscape in a way that only comes from years of operating within it: the zoning nuances, the planning relationships, the off-market deal flow, and the rhythms of a market unlike any other in Alberta. That knowledge, combined with a track record across hospitality, retail, and development land, has made him one of the most trusted commercial advisors in the Bow Valley.
Beyond brokerage, Devin is the CEO of Edelweiss Village + Resort, currently in development in Golden, BC, a 53-acre mountain heritage resort adjacent to the Golden Skybridge and Kicking Horse Mountain Resort. This active development role gives Devin a perspective on commercial real estate that no purely transactional advisor can match.
Devin also oversees a growing team of commercial agents including Deonte Doslov-Doctor in Calgary, extending the reach of Bow Valley Commercial’s network well beyond the mountain corridor.
At his core, Devin is a philosophical person and a constant learner. He believes that you only get one chance to live this life, and that belief shapes how he works and who he chooses to work with. He is drawn to clients who are driven, curious, and building something that matters.
Before commercial real estate, Colby built a career in professional hockey, a discipline that shaped how he thinks, leads, and competes. The mental toughness, team-first leadership, and relentless preparation that defined his playing career are the same qualities he brings to every client engagement. He knows what it takes to perform at the highest level under pressure, and that standard has never left him.
Colby is also a founder and COO of Edelweiss Village + Resort, working alongside Devin to bring one of Western Canada’s most compelling mountain resort development projects from vision to reality. His operational leadership and strategic thinking are central to the project’s execution.
In the Bow Valley, Colby leads across all three markets, Canmore, Banff, and Lake Louise, bringing both the breadth of a full-corridor advisor and the depth of someone who has navigated the leasehold complexities of the national park markets across multiple transactions. His measured, strategic approach to negotiation has kept deals alive that would have unravelled in less capable hands.
Like Devin, Colby is deeply philosophical and a constant learner. They share a conviction that you only get one chance to live this life, and they love working with people who carry that same drive, people who are building something, reaching for something, and want a team beside them who brings the same energy to the table.
Berni is the operational backbone of Bow Valley Commercial. Her meticulous organisation and genuine care for every client relationship ensures that nothing slips, no communication is missed, and every transaction is supported with the administrative precision it deserves. From coordinating due diligence timelines to managing NDA processes and client communications, Berni is the reason the machine runs smoothly.
“We invest in this region because we believe in it. We only get one shot at this life, and we want to spend it building things that last.”
Our reach extends well beyond the commercial market. Devin and Colby are also among the top performing residential real estate teams in Canmore, with deep local knowledge, consistent results, and the same relationship-driven approach that defines everything we do.
