Tell me which one you need and I will start there

Use the form above or reach me directly. To save a round of email, say which of these you are after and include the detail listed beside it. I answer every enquiry myself.

I want to buy a home

Tell me the area or areas you are considering, your approximate price range, property type, bedrooms, and your rough timeline. If you already have a pre approval, mention that. If you have not started the financing conversation, say so and I will point you to brokers who work in this area, with no obligation.

Background reading: how to search and what happens when you find something.

I want to sell my home

Tell me the address, roughly when you are thinking of moving, and whether you will be buying at the same time. If there is anything unusual, such as a tenant in place, an estate sale, a separation, or a property that has been renovated without permits, mention it early. Those situations are all workable and they change the plan.

Background reading: the selling process, pricing and closing costs.

I want to know what my home is worth

Give me the address and any recent updates, and say whether you need a rough figure for planning or a proper opinion with comparables. Both are free and neither obliges you to anything.

Start here: request a home valuation.

I want a personalized Property Alert

This is the one most people should ask for and do not. Tell me the area, price range, property type, bedrooms and any must haves, and I will build an alert that sends you matching listings as they come on the market, not a generic city wide feed. It takes one short conversation and you can change it any time.

I am buying an investment or rental property

Tell me your target market, budget, whether you are looking at a single family with a second unit, a small multi unit, or a tenanted purchase, and what you want the property to do. Investment purchases have different financing, different due diligence and a different math, so it helps to know that is the goal from the first conversation.

If what you actually need is someone to manage a rental once you own it, that is a separate business. SMOOTH Property Management is a property management company and operates independently of my real estate practice. I am happy to explain the difference and make the introduction.

I am looking at commercial property

Tell me the use, the size, the location and whether you are buying or leasing. Commercial transactions work differently from residential and timelines are longer. I will tell you honestly whether it is something I can take on or whether you are better served by a specialist, and I will make that introduction if so.

I am moving from outside the area, or from outside Canada

Tell me where you are coming from, when you need to be here, and what matters most about location, such as a commute, a school area or being near family. Relocation timing has its own complications and they are easier to plan for with notice.

Buying abroad rather than here? See the international investing guides.

How to reach me

Use the form above for a written enquiry, or call or email directly using the details in the footer. If you leave a message, tell me the best time to call back and which of the above you are contacting about. I will get back to you.

What happens after you get in touch

  • I reply and ask whatever I still need to know to be useful. That is usually two or three questions, not a questionnaire.
  • We have a short conversation, by phone or in person, about what you are trying to do and what the realistic options are.
  • If it makes sense to work together, we put the representation agreement in writing so everyone knows the terms before anything else happens.
  • If it does not make sense, or if someone else is better placed to help, I will say so. That happens and it is better for both of us than the alternative.

There is no pressure attached to a first conversation, and I am not going to put you on a drip campaign you did not ask for.

Areas I serve

Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph, Wilmot Township and New Dundee, and the surrounding Waterloo Region townships, plus Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville, Milton, Mississauga, Brantford and into Toronto.
