Further, my husband and I have extensively renovated our homes, so I see the potential and possible challenges in properties, which helps clients evaluate prospective homes, condos or projects.

Prior to joining Chestnut Park, I worked as a Certified Financial Planner at boutique firms looking after the entire financial well being of our clients, so I add a comprehensive financial insight to my evaluation of our clients’ real estate needs. I believe this depth personal experience results in happy and smooth real estate transactions!

Katie’s Corner
When not working, I am involved in the kids’ schools and sports, currently volunteering in the shop at Crescent and on the Aquatics Committee at the Granite Club. I have also been involved in a number of fundraising efforts including at Sterling Hall, and Wellspring both for their Hoedown and as honorary co-chair of the expansion for the Westerkirk House at Sunnybrook. I love getting outdoors be it skiing, hiking or mountain biking, but if it’s rainy, you’ll find me curled up with a great book, or trying new recipes.

In the words of my clients:

“You keep spoiling us! We are loving our new home and got together with a group of neighbours last night for dinner. We have absolutely no regrets about the move… Which I guess is pretty obvious since I keep sending people your way.”

I grew up in central Toronto, Lytton Park and Lawrence Park, and attended Havergal College for 12 years. Once married, I moved to downtown Historic Oakville, where I have lived for the past 25 years with my husband and three children. Over that time, we have had the pleasure and excitement of restoring three historic homes as our family needs grew.

I feel fortunate to have lived and worked in both Toronto and Oakville. This has allowed me to develop an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the varied neighbourhoods and their respective real estate markets. But more importantly, I have had the privilege of working closely with so many Buyers and Sellers, who are not just clients, instead rather good friends.

I pride myself on being a listener, rather than a talker. I hear what you need. I would rather a client pass on a purchase, if it doesn’t tick all their boxes. I strive to find the “perfect fit”. For some, that happens quickly, others a longer time. I have patience and perseverance.

I am very detailed and task driven. When you are a Seller, I make sure no fine detail is overlooked and I work to showcase your home in the perfect light. I make sure no potential Buyer is missed – reaching out directly to Buying Agents, following up with each showing and reporting back to you the Seller. Once again, I strive to find the “perfect fit”.

Prior to joining the world of real estate, I’ve acquired administrative and managerial expertise through sales and marketing, property management and strategic planning with over 10 years of working in the new construction industry.

As I have lived in different parts of Toronto and York Region (including Markham, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, King City, Newmarket and now East Gwillimbury), I am very familiar with these areas and have sold in the various parts of the Cities and Towns.

I think of the community as a place to grow and to care for. Therefore, I have honed my knowledge about each neighbourhood while being a part of the community as a resident. For Buyers, I am able to inspire them to realize the potential of the place which they are calling “home”.

Helping our clients achieve their personal goals with excellence is what I am about.

I strive every day to diligently work for each of our clients to provide the highest level of customer service, individualized attention while maintaining the utmost levels of integrity, confidentiality and respect.

From showings to closings, I put together all of the pieces to your puzzle. I take pride in making sure you have a smooth transaction from start to finish.

Jessica’s Corner

Aside from real estate, I love spending time with my family. My children are so little they need a lot of my attention so both my husband and I try to make sure we balance our lifestyle carefully. We are so focused with work sometimes we forget to enjoy life as it is. We love to cook and often create massive dinners for our families to enjoy, whether it’s a special occasion or a last minute “come join us for dinner tonight”. Hopefully when the kids are a little older, we can enjoy more traveling to explore and most importantly, creating those memories!
