Wealth Advisor

Worldsource Financial Management Inc.

I acquired the Certified Executor Advisor designation in 2017 in order
to fill the gap in my knowledge; several of my clients were dealing with the responsibilities
and duties of being Executors.  Having
this designation has enriched my Estate Planning advice, and benefited my
clients further by having their affairs in order.  This results in better harmony, especially in
blended family situations.

Having over 14 years of experience as an independent financial advisor, I
have a passion for helping clients accumulate wealth, preserving that wealth
and providing effective income strategies in retirement.  My clients know they can depend on me and my
network of specialists to help solve their challenges and take advantage of
opportunities they may encounter while they realize their goals and dreams.

I specialize in working with individuals, families and business owners
whether they are in retirement or will be making that transition in the next 5 –
15 years.  

“I would
say the hallmark of my business is my close communication with each client and
my frankness to their concerns.”

I work for a multi-generational advisory firm that helps families with the management of their wealth and legacy. 

Throughout my 22-year career as a Real Estate Sales and Broker, I have amassed extensive expertise in the dynamic and ever-evolving real estate industry. 

One of my notable specializations is in senior real estate, as evidenced by my designation as a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES). This credential underscores my ability to navigate the unique needs and concerns of older adults, ensuring that their transitions in housing are seamless and tailored to their lifestyles.

Furthermore, my proficiency as a Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE) equips me with advanced negotiation skills that have consistently enabled me to secure favorable deals for my clients. This certification reflects my commitment to representing clients with unwavering dedication and strategic finesse, maximizing their investment potential, and optimizing their real estate objectives.

It only takes a few moments to realize that Lynn is someone you want to have by your side.

“I like helping people,” she says, and while she’s being modest, it’s obvious that she’d drop everything to lend you a hand. “Sometimes you just need someone who will help you through changes in your life and the challenges of moving, and that’s okay.”

Her warmth and kindness stand out, even beyond her impressive real estate sales numbers and statistics. It was this combination of personality and high performance that brought her to the team, and she fits right in.

She’s a great listener, genuine and empathetic, and truly believes in the greatness of the Fraser Valley. She lives in and loves the dynamic hub that’s just a short drive away from mountains, water and Downtown Vancouver.

The Pontaletta Group is defined by being different than other real estate brokers. With her warmth, real estate smarts and determination that you’ll get your dream sale or purchase, Lynn certainly fits the bill.
