Lethbridge is Lisa Shaw’s hometown and she was happy to return to raise her family and work in real estate, a career that she loves.

Lisa first started working in real estate ten years ago as a broker’s assistant. By 2012, she became a licensed real estate agent. At this time, Lisa and her husband, James were living in Lac La Biche. The couple first moved there in 2005 so Lisa could study as an emergency medical technician (EMT), later working in surrounding communities.

When Lisa and James welcomed their daughter, Liston, they decided to visit James’ family in New Zealand for six months. After their trip, it was time to come back to Lethbridge. In early 2015, they had a son, Harrison. Then in spring 2016, Lisa met with José Rauda to discuss getting back into real estate.

Lisa says she really enjoys real estate. “The excitement of ‘we’ve made a decision, we’re going to buy a house’ and then going through each step; I enjoy taking people through it and then seeing them get the keys to their house and how happy they are. I just really enjoy how there’s more to it than just show a house and move in. There are stages in between that sometimes make the process stressful but also exciting to see it through.”

Lots of her clients have been first-time homebuyers and she loves that everything is so new and exciting for them.

When you’re selling a home, Lisa says she likes that she’s helping clients transition. “You have all of these memories that have happened in your house and then you decide that it’s time to move on, it’s like you’re closing a chapter move on to the next.”
