Hi, I’m Leah 🙋🏻‍♀️ and if you’ve been here for a while, we’re probably overdue for a reintroduction.

I’m an Oxford County-born, Stratford-based realtor helping people buy and sell throughout Stratford, Perth + Oxford County and surrounding communities.

Before real estate, I spent years working in hospitality, PR, marketing and events - which probably explains why I’m equal parts people person, marketing nerd and obsessive planner🤓✍🏻

These days, I get to put all of that into helping people navigate one of the biggest decisions they’ll make. My approach is pretty simple: educate first, communicate a lot, give you my actual opinion and never pressure you into a decision just to get a deal done.

And when I’m not talking houses, you’ll usually find me travelling, cooking for too many people, hanging with Wyatt or finding an excuse to try somewhere new.

You don’t have to be ready to move to reach out. I’d rather be the Realtor you know long before you actually need one.

So hi 👋🏻 where are you following from: Stratford, Woodstock/Oxford or somewhere else?

Thanks for being here 💌

✨CLOSED✨representing the buyers

Bethany and Jake are officially homeowners!!!!!! 🥹🥂

This was only the second home we toured together, but they knew immediately that it was their dream home.

I won’t sugar coat it… this transaction came with its challenges. There were unexpected setbacks, difficult moments and plenty of moving pieces behind the scenes. But real estate isn’t always seamless - and that’s when strong communication, honest advice and determined representation matter most.

We stayed focused, explored every possible solution and worked collaboratively to get this across the finish line.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who played a role in making today possible - and especially to Bethany and Jake for trusting me every step of the way, staying resilient and never giving up on the dream.

I couldn’t be happier for you both. Wishing you many years of love, happiness and beautiful memories in your new home 🤍🔑

*adds a backyard like this to the vision board 💫🧚🏻‍♀️

whether your next move is a few months away or still a few years down the road, the smoothest buying experiences usually begin long before the first showing.

A clear plan for your budget, timeline and must-haves can turn “maybe someday” into a move that actually feels possible - with fewer surprises along the way.

If buying a home is somewhere on your vision board, send me a message. I’m always happy to help you figure out what your first step should be - no pressure, just a plan 🤍
