With a personal practice of lifetime learning, Ken has devoted himself to an attitude of always being curious. He loves to serve, and with a 17-year career as a professor at VIU he has a unique combination of business, teaching and community experience. A modest man you would have to dig deep to know he is honored to have a high school in Ghana named after him.
As a Nanaimo REALTOR® Ken Hammer brings this business, teaching and community background to your home buying and selling experience. Ken looks forward to serving you!
The past few years have had plenty of real estate activity and several personal adventures. The real estate market continued to be fast paced throughout most of the year with a few changes to the industry. (e.g. BC tenancy act, Bill 44 allowing density, interest rate activity). Listing inventory has built up over the year and buyers are being a bit more selective in their decision making.
On a personal level, Ken was able to fit in two international trips over the last two years (one to Turkey for a Rotary Friendship Exchange and one to Spain to hike the El Camino trail). Ken continues to support work in Ghana with various partners (e.g. Rotary Clubs, Universities, Schools, Ghana Medical Help) for over 17 years.
Ken was recently honored with the VIREB Realtor Care Award which recognizes his work with a variety of community impact organizations including Rotary, Nanaimo Child Development Centre, Nanaimo Art Gallery, Nanaimo Men’s Centre, Nanaimo Association of Community Living, Nanaimo-Ladysmith Schools Foundation, Nanaimo Youth Services Association, Leadership Vancouver Island and others. He was also one of six Realtors across Canada featured by the Canadian Real Estate Association for community involvement.
We look forward to another strong year in real estate, especially serving our current and future clients and friends.

VIU is more than just a place of learning; it is a vibrant community hub that offers diverse programs, unique opportunities, and an enriching environment for students and residents alike.
