Ryan Sexton

Agent

I’m Ryan Sexton, born and raised in NE Calgary, now living in SW Calgary. Although.. I have lived in Strathmore, as well as Chestermere! I help families across Calgary, Airdrie, Strathmore & surrounding areas buy and sell homes that actually fit their lives. I’ve been a licensed Realtor since 2016, and before that, I ran my own business for 18 years, learning firsthand the value of hard work, strong relationships, community connections, and showing up for those around me. I specialize in residential real estate, with a passion for renovation, design, and helping clients navigate big life changes, whether that’s your first home, your next investment, or that long-awaited forever place. This year, I have some exciting new changes coming to the Sexton Home Realty Team, which have come with hard work, dedication, and investing into community relationships, I am looking forward to sharing this news with you very soon! Outside of work, I’m a proud dad to three amazing kids, a fan of dirt biking, snow sports, and a firm believer in making space for adventure and meaning ; both in life and in the homes we choose. If you're thinking about making a move or just want a Realtor who’s real, honest, and fully in your corner- I’d love to connect.

Rick Emond

Agent

I’m a proud family man, happily married to my amazing wife, Aleasha, for over 21 years. Together, we’re raising two incredible sons, Blake  and Carter. My life has always revolved around people and service. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in customer-focused roles and built, grown, and sold two successful businesses from the ground up. Those experiences taught me the importance of hard work, dedication, and integrity; values that guide everything I do.

Today, as a Realtor, I bring that same passion and commitment to helping clients navigate one of life’s biggest decisions with confidence and clarity. I pride myself on being attentive, communicative, and rooted in integrity, ensuring every client feels heard, informed, and supported from start to finish.

Real estate isn’t just my career, it’s my calling. I’m grateful every day to do what I love while setting an example of honesty, family, and service for my boys

Jim Barbaro

Agent

With over 25 years of experience in Calgary’s real estate market, Jim Barbaro brings a deep understanding of the city, its communities, and the people who call it home. Known for his genuine approach and strong relationships, Jim has built his business largely through friends, family, and referrals, helping clients buy their dream homes and confidently sell as they move into new chapters of life.

A true Calgarian, Jim grew up in the heart of Bridgeland, rooted in its close-knit Italian community, and later raised his own family in Brentwood in Calgary’s northwest. His lifelong connection to the city gives him valuable insight into Calgary’s diverse neighbourhoods and the unique character each one offers.

In addition to real estate, Jim has also spent years working in the film industry, where he has had the opportunity to be part of major productions and even cross paths with some well-known faces. This experience reflects his strong work ethic, adaptability, and ability to connect with people from all walks of life.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply exploring your options, Jim is committed to providing honest guidance, local expertise, and a personalized experience every step of the way.

Cayla Forrest

Team administrator

As the administrative heart and soul of our real estate team, my role is to keep everything flowing seamlessly so our agents and clients can focus on what matters most: buying and selling homes with confidence.

From coordinating listings and managing transactions to keeping communication organized and timelines on track, I work behind the scenes to ensure every step of the process runs efficiently and professionally. My goal is to create a smooth, stress-free experience for both our clients and our team by staying organized, proactive, and detail-focused.

I actually joined the real estate world unintentionally, but it didn’t take long for me to fall in love with it. The people, the process, and the connections built along the way make this industry incredibly rewarding. I love that every situation is fast-paced and unique, bringing new challenges and opportunities with each client and transaction.

Outside of real estate, I’m a proud mom of two and a grateful wife to my husband Justyn, of 5 years. Family is at the center of everything I do, and that same dedication carries over into the care and attention I bring to supporting our clients and team every day.

Extremely Helpful

Ryan was extremely helpful. As a first time home buyer he made the whole experience easy with no additional stressors. His confidence and knowledge made the home search and selection easier than expected. My partner and I were able to find a home quickly and extremely thankful for everything Ryan did to help us find our perfect home!
