UPHouse Realty

UPHouse Realty Karl Vanderkuip believes in doing things a little differently. Trust his experience and benefit from his expertise.

With his clients as his priority, Karl's easy communication style and outgoing vibes make him your realtor but also your friend. Karl made his entry into the Niagara Real Estate market in 2004 and not once has he questioned what he believes is his calling. Thing is, he was never supposed to be a real estate guy, or at least never thought he was. He was a drifter by nature and whilst exploring Nica

ragua he developed mono and was Fed-EXed home to sleep for months. In between naps he found the love of his life and now wife, Pauline. He knew she was out of his league and quickly buckled down to establish an education at Brock University while obtaining his real estate license on the side. A growing passion for architecture, the next great cup of coffee and the drive of a honey badger made it clear that this is where he belonged. This has solidified him as an industry leader.

20+ years later and Karl’s passion is stronger than ever but his game has changed. Now a father of four: Naomi , Arie, Maaike, Bodie. With a wise old realtor once telling Karl “I hope you become a better father than realtor,” Karl considers those words on the regular and is sure he won’t forget them (well, pretty sure). All things history related or ‘latest and greatest’ is what makes Karl tick… the drive to know what is happening can be seen in his eclectic app collection, presence at City Hall, who’s on first, or rumours of the latest addition to the Apple family. Warm and generous and always quick to a joke, Karl ensures that his clients feel valued and appreciated throughout the buying and selling process. But don’t mistake Karl’s kindness for any brand of weakness… this could not be further from the truth. Think of him as a shark in a dolphin costume when it comes to closing the deal.
