Partnering with an experienced local real estate professional makes all the difference. I provide detailed market insights, personalized advice, and full-service support to ensure your selling journey is informed and successful.
First impressions count. I’ll guide you through home staging, repairs, decluttering, and curb appeal improvements that showcase your property’s full potential and attract serious buyers.
Pricing your home accurately is key. I conduct a comprehensive market analysis of recent Ottawa home sales and active listings to help you set a competitive, data-backed asking price.
Your listing deserves more than a basic upload. I’ll market your property with professional photography, compelling listing descriptions, social media promotion, and placement on MLS and other top real estate platforms to maximize exposure.

When offers come in, I help you analyze the price, conditions, and buyer credentials. We’ll negotiate on your behalf to secure the most favorable terms while protecting your interests.
After accepting an offer, I ensure all conditions—such as home inspections or financing—are completed smoothly and on schedule. My goal is to keep your transaction stress-free and on track.
Leading up to closing, I’ll work closely with your lawyer and other professionals to finalize documents, address final details, and ensure you’re ready to hand over the keys
On closing day, you’ll officially transfer ownership, sign the final paperwork, and receive the proceeds from the sale. Whether you’re moving across town or across the country, I’ll support you every step of the way.
