About Anita

SELLING PAST MEMORIES & BUYING FUTURE DREAMS

I have been helping people navigate the real estate world since 1986. I have seen and succeeded in every imaginable real estate market and economic environment. The market circumstances of the day each have their own unique set of challenges and opportunities. You can count on me to overcome the challenges for you and celebrate the opportunities with you.

I am proud to be a consistent, multi-award winning Real Estate Broker. I care about honest business done with integrity. This is why I have served for many years on the Real Estate Council of Ontario both as Vice-Chair of the Ethics Committee and as Vice-Chair of the Appeals Committee.

It takes an abundance of focus and energy to stay on top of the ever-changing real estate market. I keep sharp by doing long trips on my road bike, playing and organizing women’s ball hockey, donating, and giving back to various charitable causes. I also mentor and advise other realtors at the office in the role of Assistant Branch Manager.

Nearly 100% of my happy clients are repeat or referral. It’s easy to see why. If you are looking for a hard-working, knowledgeable and uniquely practical approach to real estate, look no further than me.

What Are The Steps to Successfully Selling My Home?

A solid strategy is needed to successfully sell a property. For a marketing strategy, you need to know where and how to market the property to appeal to a desired buyer. In a listing strategy, we determine the best ways to achieve our goals of maximizing exposure and price. Finally, in a compensation strategy, we ensure we are adequately incentivizing buyers to view the property, thus helping us achieve the goal of maximum exposure.

The strategy sets the tone for the rest of the process. Now, we are ready to move into the finer details and take action on the plan, outlined in the steps below:

Step 1: Preparing Your Property to List

Once the strategy is set and we have alignment, we have to do a lot of work to get your property ready to go on the market.

Step 2: You’re Ready

to List Your property is posted on the MLS and is now being viewed by potential buyers and distributed to all affiliate websites.

Step 3: Offer time!

A buyer has made an offer to purchase your property. Will you accept it after negotiations?

Step 4: Leading Up to Closing

With a firm sale on your home, it’s time to get ready to leave your property in good hands for the next buyers.

Step 5: Closing

Your buyer will be moving into their new property and there may be some final loose ends to wrap up.
