Real estate is about more than buying and selling property—it’s about finding the right fit for your lifestyle, goals, and future.

I’m Rick Baerg, a REALTOR® with RE/MAX Williams Lake Realty, proudly serving Williams Lake and the Cariboo region. Having grown up in the area and returned home several years ago, I have a deep appreciation for the people, communities, and outdoor lifestyle that make this part of British Columbia so special.

My approach to real estate is built on firsthand experience. Over the years, I’ve personally bought, renovated, and sold 11 homes across BC. Through those experiences, I’ve developed a strong understanding of property potential, renovation value, and what buyers and sellers should look for when making important real estate decisions.

Before entering real estate, I spent 28 years as a professional fishing and fly-fishing guide. That career took me across some of British Columbia’s most beautiful rivers, lakes, and backcountry destinations, giving me a unique knowledge of recreational properties and the outdoor lifestyle many people come here to enjoy.

Today, I specialize in residential, recreational, lakefront, riverfront, and acreage properties throughout the Cariboo. Whether you’re searching for your first home, upgrading to a larger property, looking for a fixer-upper with potential, or dreaming of a waterfront retreat, I bring local knowledge, practical experience, and dedicated service to every client relationship.

Real estate, much like fly fishing, rewards patience, preparation, and knowing where to look. My goal is to make your buying or selling experience as smooth and successful as possible while helping you find more than a property—a place you’ll truly love to call home.

I look forward to helping you with your next move.
