I have been servicing the Ottawa real estate market for seven years during which time I became a member of the National Association of Green Agents and Brokers. I specialize in locating properties for Buyers that have energy efficient qualities, as well as providing education on low cost upgrades and grants available from various levels of Government. I can offer Sellers assistance in showcasing their properties' efficiencies, or potential, to a marketplace that increasingly demands environmental responsibility, while reducing the costs of running a home.
My background includes successfully running a number of businesses and have worked throughout North America in financial capacities. In addition to my Real Estate and Financial education I have a Degree in English.
My demonstrated accumulation of skills over the years has me in a position to afford the most complete real estate services for Buyers and Sellers alike. And to my clients, 3.33% of my commission will be donated to a charity of their choice, in their name. I want to be your realtor. It's my job.
