Welcome to Matter Homes with Wendy Smith

To me, a home is more than just a home. It is the backdrop to our lives and a collection of what truly matters to us. So, imagine a real estate experience where discovering your priorities is all that matters. And imagine a real estate partner who is truly listening when they ask

What matters to you? I am Wendy Smith xx

Let's connect - I want to hear what matters to you!

Something special has arrived in Riverdale!

My latest listing is a stunning three-storey detached home featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, bright open-concept spaces, beautiful custom millwork, a finished walk-out basement and FOUR incredible outdoor spaces!

I love the thoughtful design throughout: from the sun-filled principal rooms and beautifully updated kitchen to the entire third-floor primary retreat with its own ensuite, generous wardrobe space and private terrace overlooking the treetops.

It has four distinct outdoor spaces including multiple decks and a beautifully landscaped backyard. I imagine it hosting your morning coffee and al fresco summers, entertaining friends or simply finding a quiet moment in nature. It's a true urban oasis.

The finished walk-out basement offers even more flexibility, with a spacious recreation room, wet bar and dedicated home office. Perfect for busy family life.All of this tucked away on a peaceful street, just steps from Withrow Park, the Danforth, neighbourhood cafés, restaurants, schools and everything that makes Riverdale so special.

This one feels like home. ❤🏠

From marketing to real estate, and everything that matters in between!

I recently had the pleasure of joining Bosley's Like A Bos podcast to chat about my journey from 15+ years in advertising to building Matter Homes and joining the Bosely team!

We talked about how my marketing background shapes the way I approach real estate, why supporting local businesses is so important to me, and the power of building genuine connections within our communities.

For me, real estate has always been about so much more than buying and selling homes. It's about the people, the neighbourhoods and the small businesses that make our communities so special.

Neighbours Matter 🏠 Homes Matter.

A big thank you to Bosley for having me! Loved this conversation.

Riverdale in October is hard to beat. The trees along the park are turning 🍂, the porches are out in full pumpkin 🎃, and I spent the morning here prepping my next great reveal! 🏠

It’s coming later this month, and worth the wait.

Introducing Dinah Luxton, founder and designer of Toronto's own LUXTON

Dinah is a part of our next Homes Matter event, the Life you're Building, because she's a builder with a seriously impressive track record.

After starting a career in fashion at Club Monaco, and working across both the creative and commercial sides of the industry at one of Canada's largest privately owned fashion brands, Dina took a leap of faith to BUILD HER OWN VISION.

She founded Luxton, a Canadian women’s outerwear brand known for distinctive silhouettes, beautiful materials and pieces designed for how women actually live. Dinah's story teaches us about the courage it takes to turn an idea into a business. To believe in your point of view, take the risk and build something that is truly your own.

And there’s more! LUXTON will also be hosting a special pop-up at the event, so you’ll have a chance to see and shop the collection in person. Dinah is also generously giving away some incredible LUXTON goodies as seat prizes throughout the event. Trust me, you’re going to want to win these!

Come meet Dinah, hear her story, shop LUXTON and join us for what is going to be such a fun and informed afternoon. You do NOT want to miss this one. Spots are limited, so please sign up at the link in my bio. 🔗

Welcome to the Homes Matter community, Dinah. We’re SO thrilled to have you with us. ❤️

Helping first-time buyers purchase their very first home is truly one of the BEST parts of my job:

Excitement 🤗
Nerves 😬
Joy 😍

It always sticks with me.

I was introduced to my amazing new clients from 75 Rockcliffe, and we got to work right away. We booked our first round of showings and, wouldn’t you know it, the VERY first house we walked into was the one! So an offer was made that SAME day, and was secured less than 12 hours later!

It was a moment they'd been waiting a long time for, so congrats to my wonderful clients, on becoming homeowners.

What a milestone!

When I hand over the keys, I don't really feel like my job is done. Because I know that the first few months of living in your new home are where a lot of people get stuck.

Which paint colour?
Where does the sofa go?
Why does this room not flow?

To help with this, every Matter Homes buyer gets a two-hour, in-home design consultation with my friend Meg Rogers of Meg Rogers Design , one of Toronto's most talented interior designers.

Meg comes to you and walks through your new home with you. She'll help with paint, furniture layout, styling, décor, and the practical stuff too, like making a room work for how you really live, not how it looked in the listing photos.

It's the stuff that really makes is a HOME, and can be frustrating to do alone, but is one of my favourite parts of the whole process together.

Market sense. Service. Style. It's the little extra you get from Matter Homes.

They say home is where the heart is, and I don’t think I’ve ever understood that more than I do with this home–our home. ❤🏠 ❤ After so many wonderful years, Matt and I have decided it’s time for another family to call 13 Hopedale home.

This house has been such a special place for our family. We’ve renovated it, loved it, raised our boys in it, and filled it with more memories than I could ever fit into one post.

13 Hopedale Ave has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and the coziest interior, but what has made it truly feel like home has always been the community around us. The neighbours who became friends. The kids running between houses and backyards. The impromptu get-togethers, the street hangs and knowing there was always someone close by. This little street has given our family so much, and THAT will be the hardest part to leave.

We are SO excited for our next chapter, but I know a big piece of our hearts will always stay right here.

13 Hopedale Avenue | 3 Beds | 2 Baths
And because I’m the seller this time, my wonderful colleague Katie Young () is taking the lead on this one.

An extra special moment to round out the work week: helping a family friend find their perfect home in my very own neighbourhood. ❤🏠 This might just be the BEST part of my job.

39 Beechwood is a very special home. Tucked into one of the most unique little pockets of the east end, the property is private, peacedful, and surrounded by nature, giving it the feel of a little hillside retreat in the city.

My hugest congrats to this wonderful family on the purchase of their equally wonderful new home! Welcome to the neighbourhood, friends! It's a match made in heaven.

I am SO thrilled to introduce our community to Libby Wildman, Head of Wealth Advisory at Davis Rea, AND my friend. Libby and I have known each other for more than 10 years, and as we've watched each other build businesses, navigate different chapters, take risks, pivot and grow we’ve also become each other’s biggest champions.

Libby has honed nearly four decades of experience in wealth advisory. But what I LOVE about her approach is that she goes far beyond spreadsheets and numbers to the psychology of our “money brain” — the beliefs and emotions that shape how we think about money and the choices we make with it. For Libby, money isn’t a scorecard; it’s a tool to help us build the life we actually want.

That perspective makes her such a perfect fit for our next Homes Matter event: the Life You’re Building. I am certain that Libby's ability to make financial conversations feel approachable, personal and empowering will help unlock this discussion on financial confidence and how the choices we make align with the lives we want to create.

I can’t wait for you to meet her, learn from her and experience a little of the Libby wisdom I’ve been lucky enough to have in my life for more than a decade. Welcome to the Homes Matter community, Libby. I’m SO happy you’re here.
