✨ JUST LEASED ✨

From Timmins ➝ London for an exciting new work/school placement! 📚✨

This one came to me through a referral from a GTA agent I had the pleasure of working with a few years ago — and I’m always so grateful when another agent trusts me to take care of their clients. 🤍

When she called and told me what she was looking for, I immediately had a place in mind. We toured a few options around London, but once she saw this brand-new building on Hill Street, it was pretty clear we had found the one.

Beautiful finishes, thoughtful layouts and options for so many different lifestyles — whether you’re a student, young professional, family, downsizer or empty nester, these beautiful Hill Street buildings really have something for everyone.

So excited for my client as she starts this next chapter in a brand-new city. Welcome to London & congratulations on your new home! 🤍🥂🎉

&&& a little reminder — buying and selling may be what you see most often on my page, but I can absolutely help with rentals too. If you or someone you know is looking for a place in London, I’d love to show you some of the beautiful options available here. 🔑✨

August is officially wrapping up, and September is right around the corner! 🍂 If you've been thinking about getting out and exploring more of what our local community has to offer, next month is packed with everything from live Broadway shows and concerts to great local festivals.

There's truly no better way to get a real feel for the neighborhoods we call home.

As August draws to a close and everyone starts getting back into work and school routines, a lot of people assume the real estate market just pauses until next spring. But honestly, late summer is actually one of the smartest, most practical times to make a move in the Forest City.

Here is why this specific time of year can work so well in your favor:

- More Serious Buyers and Sellers: The chaotic, fast-paced rush of the spring market settles down. The people looking to buy or sell right now are usually focused, motivated, and ready to get things done, which makes negotiations much more straightforward.

- Easier Timing for Fall: Securing a home now lets you get unpacked, settled in, and into a comfortable daily routine long before the winter weather and busy end-of-year holidays arrive.

- Space to Decide: Without the peak-season rush, you actually get the time and breathing room to look at neighborhoods, compare options, and make decisions without feeling rushed or pressured.

Whether you are thinking about putting your home on the market or starting the search for your next place before autumn hits, having a clear plan makes all the difference.

Drop a comment below or send me a message—I would love to chat through your goals and help you map out your best next step!

We’ve officially hit that strange, bittersweet pivot point in August. One half of your brain is trying to squeeze every last drop out of long daylight hours and relaxed summer schedules, while the other half is already secretly thinking about routine, cooler weather, and getting organized.

In real estate, mid-August always brings a very specific energy.

It’s the shift from casual summer browsing to real intention. People start looking around their living rooms and realizing, "If we want to be settled before the holiday season hits, or if we want to be in a new place before the full weight of autumn routines sets in, the time to move is right now."

Finding a home during a transitional time of year is about clarity. It’s looking at where you are right now, assessing how your space served you over the summer, and deciding what you actually need to feel grounded for the months ahead.

Whether you’re aiming to lock down a new key before the season fully flips, or you’re starting to map out a move for early next year, this is the best window to start having those conversations without the pressure.

I’m here to help you navigate the timing, read the late-summer market, and make sure your next step feels completely effortless.

☕ Are you team "Hold onto summer forever" or team "Bring on autumn and fresh starts"? Let me know where your mindset is at right now!

📍 What’s happening in London & St. Thomas real estate right now?

If you’ve been waiting for the market to “pick a side,” July’s numbers suggest something different: balance.

There’s more choice for buyers, more competition among listings, and a little less pressure to make a decision overnight. For sellers, that makes preparation more important than ever — pricing, presentation, and strategy can make a real difference.

Here’s a snapshot of where we landed in July:
🏠 1,543 new properties came onto the market
🔑 686 homes found buyers
💰 $603,006 average sale price
📊 $557,000 MLS® HPI benchmark price
⚖️ 44.5% sales-to-new-listings ratio
📅 4.9 months of inventory

So, what should you take from all of this?

Buyers: You may have more room to compare homes, negotiate, and make decisions thoughtfully.

Sellers: Buyers have options, so your home needs to stand out from the moment it hits the market. A strong launch and realistic pricing strategy matter.

And with the Bank of Canada holding its policy rate at 2.25%, stability could help set the stage for a busier fall.

The market isn't the same for everyone — and that's exactly why the numbers shouldn't be viewed in isolation.

Thinking about buying, selling, or just curious about what your neighbourhood is doing? Let's talk about what the market actually means for you. 🏡

The "wait and see" strategy feels safe, but it often comes with a hidden cost. 📉

When interest rates eventually drop, buyers who were waiting on the sidelines all jump back into the market at once. The result? Multiple offers, bidding wars, and rising prices that offset whatever you hoped to save on interest.

Here’s the reality:

You can refinance a rate later 🔄

You can't renegotiate your purchase price after prices surge 📈

Every month you wait is a month of building equity lost 🏠

✨NO CONDO FEES. 5 BEDROOMS. END-UNIT. NEAR WESTERN. ✨

(yes… you read that right 👀)

Tucked into a cul-de-sac setting, this end-unit freehold townhouse offers something that’s getting harder to find — space, flexibility, and serious income potential.

✔️ No neighbours directly behind
✔️ Extra privacy with only one shared wall
✔️ Private driveway + garage + sundeck

Inside, the layout is designed for real life (or smart investing):
• A bright, open family room with soaring two-storey ceilings
• Kitchen + dining overlooking the living space — open, airy, connected
• 4 bedrooms upstairs with 2 full baths (including Jack & Jill)
• Lower level with 5th bedroom + bathroom → perfect for a private suite, live-in option, or added income

📍 Just minutes to Western, with direct transit routes + close to Costco, restaurants, parks, and Medway Valley trails.

This is the kind of property investors wait for… and rarely see come up as a freehold end-unit.

If you’ve been looking for something low-maintenance with strong rental appeal and flexibility — this one is worth a closer look.

🫧OPENHOUSE this Saturday April 4th 1-3pm
