How long have you been working in real estate?
I started in real estate right out of University 17 years ago and haven’t looked back.
What is it that makes you so passionate about what you do?
Every day is different. I love the excitement of not knowing what each day will bring. I am very social and really enjoy taking the time to get to know all about my clients. I consider it an honour to be a part of their decision to buy or sell their biggest asset.
What attracted you to this business?
I come from a family of builders but that didn’t quite seem like the right fit for me. Real estate felt like a natural extension of that and I have always excelled at sales.
Is there a particular area you specialize in, either in terms of neighborhoods, or types of homes, or perhaps the type of clients you like to work with?
I don’t like to be typecast, but it has seemed to work out that a lot of my business is in the luxury market. However, I sell all types of homes, and every price range gets the exact same treatment and exposure. One of my team members, Jules, specializes in seniors and first-time buyers.
In such a competitive market, with so many realtors, what do you offer your clients that you think makes a difference?
Real estate is heavily saturated with agents and there is certainly a lot of choice. It is important for me to take the personal approach with all of my clients, which is why I have a very small team with a boutique style of marketing. If my clients call me, they will get me.
