Benjamin Tetzlaw, Coldwell Banker Preferred Real Estate, Steinbach, Manitoba.

Benjamin was named Canada’s Rookie of the Year in unit sales, based on his production at the end of 2019.  He immigrated to Canada in 2006 and speaks both German and Russian, which has helped him connect with many clients in his community.  His experience as a cabinet maker gave him an appreciation for fine homes, which later led to a career in real estate.  He joined Coldwell Banker in January 2018 and is already one of the Canadian network’s top performers, achieving the International President’s Circle designation in 2019.  He has developed strategic partnerships with a number of local service providers which has helped him keep his clients informed every step of the way.

Greg Dodds, Coldwell Banker All Points – Festival City Realty, Exeter, Ontario.

This 27-year-old brings the drive, work ethic and love of teamwork from his passion for hockey to his real estate career. He attributes his widespread base of connections to the many people he has met playing hockey throughout Southwest Ontario, and prides himself on being available for his clients 24/7 to get the job done. When he is not helping his clients, he helps his community by being an involved member of his local Lions Club and organizing fundraisers for various charitable children’s organizations.

Levi Goetz, Coldwell Banker Preferred Real Estate, Steinbach, Manitoba

 Levi’s career choice continues a family tradition that includes two grandparents, an uncle and two aunts who are all in real estate.  He likes the independence offered by his sales career, particularly the ability to develop his own business plan and vision for the future. His commitment to hard work and excellent communication skills are evident in his use of the Ultimate Service customer satisfaction program, unique to Coldwell Banker Canada.  Levi actively volunteers in community projects and believes that “The secret to living, is giving.”
