New construction:
My real estate career started with Minto in 2016, and new builds have stayed part of my practice ever since. Builders my clients have bought from, with me in their corner:
Minto - Mattamy Homes - Caivan - HN Homes - EQ Homes - Claridge Homes - Richcraft - Urbandale - Uniform - Tamarack Homes - DevMcGill
Builder contracts, lot premiums, design studio upgrades, delayed closings - I know where the traps are because I've been reading those agreements for a decade.
Personal experience:
I've completed 10 property transactions of my own(all resale), and 6 of them involved some form of renovation. When I walk through a fixer-upper with a client, I've usually stood in their exact shoes.
2013-present: I bought my first home with my best friend at 23. This property in Nepean became my first rental property. Since then I’ve managed a total of 6 rental properties throughout my real estate career.
2018-2019: I volunteered on the condo board at Carleton Condominium Corp. 117(A 1970’s condo - this was an eye opening experience)
2023-2025: Hintonburg infill project - In 2020 I bought a tired old house in Hintonburg that most people walked right past. From 2023 to 2025 I was in every meeting on that infill build, start to finish - and by spring 2025 the lot held two brand new freehold semi-detached homes, each with its own basement studio apartment.
I enjoy all aspects of the real estate world. I don't think real estate should be intimidating or complicated. Feel free to visit my blog where I discuss experiences and topics that I feel passionate about.
The majority of media posted on this site is my own. I love to take photos of the Ottawa landscape, beautiful buildings, and my family.
