Selling with me, step by step
Let's chat first.
A quick 15 minute call about your plans, your timing and what matters most to you. It goes both ways, so we'll both know if we're a good fit.
An honest price.
A real look at the market and what buyers will pay, even if it's not the number you hoped for.
Fix what matters.
I'll walk through with you and tell you what's worth doing before listing and what isn't, then line up the trades.
Show it at its best.
Professional photos, video and staging with the team I've used for years, then out to MLS and social media.
Stay in the loop.
Showings, feedback and where things stand, every week, so you're never left wondering.
Negotiate and close.
Every offer reviewed together, with my advice on what I'd do in your shoes. Then I work with your lawyer through closing.
Fix what matters. Skip what doesn’t.
You don’t need to renovate to sell well. Most of the time it’s a few smart updates, a good clean and the right staging. I’ll walk through your home with you and tell you honestly where your money is worth spending and where it isn’t.
If you need help, I’ll connect you with the painters, cleaners, handymen and stagers I trust, so you’re not making ten calls yourself.
“She had great suggestions, what to update in and out of the house, without being overly expensive, nor over whelming.”Selling a home after 30 years is emotional and she walked me through it, and made the experience uncomplicated.

Photos and video
Professional photography and video that show your home the way it feels in person.
Staging
Advice on every home, and full staging when it will pay off.

“Her marketing strategies and negotiation skills resulted in selling our home at the best price.”
Every kind of property sells differently
A semi in Peterborough, a family home in Lakefield and a farm in Douro-Dummer all attract different buyers. I’ve sold all of them, so the plan fits your property.
In town
Homes and condos in Peterborough, Lakefield, Millbrook, Norwood and Havelock.
Rural and acreage
Wells, septic, outbuildings and land. I live on 50 acres myself, so I know what country buyers ask.
Waterfront and cottage
Shoreline, docks and seasonal access across the Kawarthas.
A family or estate home
Selling a parent's home or downsizing after many years, handled with patience.

Good to know
Why don't you offer a free online home evaluation?
Because a number from a form isn't worth much. I'd rather see your home, talk about your plans, and give you a price I'd stand behind.
What should I fix before listing?
Less than you think. I'll walk through with you and tell you what's worth it and what isn't.
How long will it take to sell my home in Peterborough?
It depends on price, season and area. I'll show you what's selling near you right now so you know what to expect.
Can I buy and sell at the same time?
Yes. We'll plan the timing together so you're not stuck with two homes or none.
What does it cost to sell?
We'll go through it openly on our first call, including commission, legal fees and any prep, so there are no surprises.
Thinking about selling, even a year from now?
Let's talk about timing, price and what to do first. Book a 60 minute seller consult — no pressure and no pitch.
