Other than bringing a wealth of experience in general, Menno has managed to find a form of specialization in transactions with non-residents. Nova Scotia being a popular destination for clients from Germany, the US, Great Britain and other lands, it should be no surprise that Menno's specialty has created a bit of a niche market. Menno's multi-lingual website is award-winning and informative. It takes property marketing to a higher level. Menno believes that it's much more important to concentrate on the precise marketing of properties than on self-promotion. The combination of this attention to detail and "Dutch modesty" make for a special real estate experience. Welcome to RYCO Realty!
