Our answer was absolutely! Realtors are licensed provincially, and our team regularly helps our clients buy and ...Happy Trails

Further along, she spotted another…and then another. (more…)Nicole & Tyler: From Lawrence Park to Monarch Park
posted by Allyson Scott Our story with Tyler and Nicole actually begins with a man named Tim, back in the spring of 2014. He walked into our Royal LePage Supreme Bloor Street office, and asked for Jody’s help finding a lease. Most of our clients come from personal referrals, so this was a rel ...Not Just A Weed
When you buy a new home in the colder months, as we did, you often have no idea what treasures are contained in your garden.

In early August, our friends Jenn and Mark contacted us to ask if we could help their family with exploring a cottage purchase, most likely in the Haliburton area. Our answer was absolutely! Realtors are licensed provincially, and our team regularly helps our clients buy and sell outside of Toronto…even more so than usual this year, as people looked to escape the city!
“We just got back from a camping trip…and we think we’re done with our trailer, now that the kids are older,” Jenn said. Their son Tyler is 17, their daughter Madeline is 20, and all of them were ready for a little more space!
