Glen McLeod
Glen has been a permanent resident of Mayne Island for thirty years.
Many years of self employment in the local construction industry
helped Glen to build a solid reputation and knowledge base which
paved the way for a transition into the real estate industry in
1989. Glen understands the structure and history of the houses which
are for sale today and, if he didn't work on them himself, he probably
knows the contractors who did! The same work ethic and integrity
which gave Glen a solid reputation in construction has made him
a consistent top producer in BC
investment homes and west
coast vacation homes.
Lise McLeod
Lise is originally from the Matapédia Valley on the Gaspé
Peninsula in Quebec. She came to Mayne Island thirty three years
ago and worked in several occupations before joining the real estate
industry with her husband, Glen.
Lise is passionate about Canadian culture and history. Her knowledge
of local history gives her insight into the unique lifestyle offered
by the Gulf Islands. She is currently the President of the Mayne
Island Community Centre Society and has served several community
organizations and promoted many cultural events over the years.
Lise and Glen's son, Mason, was born and raised on Mayne Island
and currently attends Camosun College in Victoria.
After ten years of owning and managing their own real estate company,
Glen and Lise are happy to have sold and merged their company with
Sussex Group Gulfport Realty in June, 2002. Glen and Lise are now
free to focus their skills entirely on the business of listing and
selling Gulf Island

Mayne Island offers the most moderate climate in the country. The
waters of Georgia Strait run fast and deep through the Southern
Gulf Islands, bringing breezes and tidal currents which take the
edge off the hottest summers and the coldest winters. Summer heat
waves may occasionally touch the nearby cities of Vancouver, Victoria
and Seattle but in the Islands the air is always clean, crisp and
silent. Snow and frost are rare and beautiful events in winter,
usually over within a day or two. Coastal snow capped mountains
on all sides keep the world at bay. Take a walk at night and let
the stars and moon light your way. No streetlights here. Listen
to the silence, breathe deeply the clean air, relax, feel the freedom,
the safety.
Two grocery stores, a gas station and two mechanics, two hotels
and restaurants, several bed and breakfasts and cafes, a bakery,
a charming resort and a cozy seaside Inn are just some of Mayne
Island's amenities. A Health Clinic with resident doctor and nurse,
ambulance crew, volunteer fire department and emergency response
team are backed up by helicopter and water taxi evacuation services.
Two public docks provide access to the ocean and good moorage. The
Mayne Island Elementary School serves about forty students from
Mayne while older students travel by water taxi to Salt Spring Island
for high school. There are some home schoolers here too; the Islands
are full of independent thinkers and artists.
Visit Mayne Island; your life will never be the same! Glen and
Lise McLeod have lived and worked on Mayne Island for thirty six
years and have been top producing real estate agents since 1989.
Let us be your guides to Mayne Island community and its unique lifestyle.
