OPEN HOUSE ALERT: Sun Feb 8, 12-2 pm 647 Rhodes Ave

It's not as easy as you'd think to find a home in Toronto that doesn't need renovating yet still has character, is located in a great area...AND offers private garage parking. But look no further!

This semi-detached property offers 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms upstairs, a generous room on the main floor for a 3rd bed or office, and finished basement space. The eat-in kitchen is large and updated, with a walkout to a deck, fenced yard, and LANEWAY garage. Steps from the Danforth, subway, schools, parks, and more.

My colleagues David West and Luciana Conte (Keller Williams Referred Urban Realty) listed this exceptional home for $1,179,000. Join me at the open house this Sunday, or call me to book a private showing!

Sometimes the MLS® system reminds me of online dating.

You’re scrolling through new profiles, but then you see a few you swear you’ve seen before. Same photos, same descriptions, same everything. That’s how it felt today, checking out some of the “new” listings that were actually just returning from a holiday hiatus.

Rather than simply reposting the original listing, it’s preferable to relaunch it with actual updates when possible. Maybe we’ve learned which features need to be emphasized, or that we need to create a home office space, or that no one likes the bedroom colour. It’s just like the dating profile that seemed so interesting at first, until you noticed that red flag!

Want to know how to make your home look its best and attract the most interest? Let’s talk!

I'm sticking to my new year goal of being more aware of what I'm bringing into my home, and what I'm allowing to stay.

I'm not keeping duplicates. I'm not saving broken items "just in case".

Our stuff is part of what keeps us stuck, and makes the thought of moving feel overwhelming.

Even small wins will add up over time! ⭐👏

Confession time: I'm a pack rat, and letting go of things has always been a struggle. The older I get the more I accumulate, and the harder it is to stay organized.

My goal this year is to make small but frequent efforts to declutter whatever is right in front of me. It's not always possible to dedicate an entire weekend to filling carefully-labeled bins. Sometimes it's just admitting that I don't know when, or if, I will ever be a size 8 again - and clearing out that "aspirational" section of my closet!

I donated one bag of clothes and a couple of books today - two gold stars for me! The clothing donation bin and the free little library are both literally on my own street, so this was an easy starting point.

Letting go can be hard...but I know from past experience that the purging can also be a bit addictive! Whether you're thinking of selling your house, or just want a more enjoyable living space, decluttering is a critical first step.

It's also a very affordable alternative to therapy!

If you’ve been trying to “make do” in a space that doesn’t suit your life any longer, you probably feel overwhelmed. Do you want to make a move...but cringe at the idea of prospective buyers looking in all your closets?

Have no fear! I've helped many clients overcome the overwhelm. We'll work together to create a plan, and I'll be there to help you see it through.

The change of season is a perfect time to tackle some clutter, even if you don't plan to move until spring. If you need an objective eye, and some help making trips to the donation centres - give me a shout!

When you're in a challenging market, you want to hire a Realtor who's going to rise to that challenge!

It's important to prepare a listing plan. It's equally important to adjust that plan based on buyer feedback!

A good Realtor wears many hats. This weekend I'm drawing on my years of renovating experience, and picking up a paintbrush for a client. I will also put my photography degree to good use, and update the listing on Monday!

As your Realtor, you will have my wealth of experience at your disposal...and also a few secret weapons!

Good grief....the things that might surprise you about home ownership: wildlife control, property damage, and big arborist bills! My raccoon and rat 😬 issues are resolved since I took down my mulberry tree (with permission, for $7,000)...but now I have a squirrel in the shed, and many logs to split.

When my clients have a pool, but want to list their home in the spring when it's closed, I take the guesswork away for potential buyers. Extra large seasonal photographs hung right where the view will be, no imagination required!

I'll always try to find a creative solution to make your property stand out from the crowd!
