Your home should feel like peace.

That’s what I help my clients find, homes that fit their growing families, expanding lives, and evolving needs. With a calm, step-by-step approach, I guide people through one of life’s biggest transitions and make it feel less overwhelming, and more like a fresh start.

James Wilkinson, your Creston real estate expert

Growing up, the soccer field was my happy place. I dreamed of becoming a professional athlete, but what I really wanted was something deeper: the freedom to build a life on my terms and to connect meaningfully with others. That desire shaped everything that followed.

Before stepping into real estate, I worked as a personal trainer, renovated homes, and became the go-to person for friends and family navigating major life changes. Whether walking through open houses with expectant parents or helping a sibling find space for three kids and grandma, I loved being part of the process—helping people imagine a better future, one home at a time.

For the past 16 years, I’ve called the Kootenays home. I chose to move my family to Creston because of its small-town charm, vibrant community, and endless outdoor recreation including my favourite- golf. It’s the kind of place where people wave to each other in the grocery store parking lot, and where families can really thrive.

Now, as a real estate professional, I bring that same heart and clarity to every client I serve. I call it Next Level Living—a confident, personalized approach to buying and selling built on trust, transparency, and care.

Because this isn’t just about square footage. It’s about creating a lifestyle that reflects who you are and where you’re headed. If you're ready for your next move, I’d be honoured to help you make it—with ease, purpose, and maybe even a little excitement.
