Buyer's Guide

Resources for Buyers

Imagine waking up to the gentle lapping of waves, stepping out onto your own private dock, and breathing in that crisp, lake-air serenity. Picture sipping your morning coffee while golden light dances across the water—this isn’t a dream, it’s the lifestyle I’m here to help you unlock.

With specialized expertise in waterfront living, I go beyond listings to deliver immersive property experiences and local insight you won’t find on your typical home search or obtain from a realtor that is not familiar with all the complexities of waterfront properties. From shoreline setbacks and septic systems to seasonal access, environmental factors, and area-specific regulations—I guide you through it all, protecting you from costly surprises and ensuring smart, long-term investment decisions.
 

I take the time to understand your lifestyle and priorities, so that I can find you the property that best suits your needs while never making you feel rushed or pressured. 

From private showings and virtual tours to customized market reports and local lifestyle recommendations, I make it easy to explore your options and start your next chapter on the water.

 

My goal is to make your buying journey enjoyable—and rewarding.

What You Can Expect

The first step is to assess your needs. There are many things to consider when purchasing a recreational property and my personal needs assessment will ensure I find you the perfect property. No two cottages are alike and it is important for me to understand what features are important to you and what you can do without.

I make it my mission to know the area and the properties that are available. For those that I may not yet have seen in person, I know the questions to ask the listing agent to ensure that the property is a fit to your requirements. I am conscious of how precious your time is and will only show you those properties that are the most conducive to you and your lifestyle.

This time is used to discuss with you the pros and cons of these properties, via your preferred method of communication. Together we will determine which properties warrant viewing. Since most people are travelling some distance to view properties this ensures we make the most of your valuable time.

During showing appointments I will give you plenty of time to view the property on your own and will take you through the property and review everything in detail to help you make the most educated decision possible.

I will take time to review the likes and dislikes of each property to further help define exactly what you are looking for so that I can assist you better.

Once a suitable property is found I will update you on the current market conditions and explain their impact.

I will do a comparative market analysis and guide you through the negotiation process so that you get the best possible terms.

I will of course ensure that all appropriate conditions and clauses are included to best protect your interests.

Once the offer is accepted and the sale is final I will remain involved throughout the closing process to make sure everything goes smoothly. I will follow up after the sale to make sure you are happy with your purchase and help deal with any issues that may arise.

My Commitment to You as a Buyer's Agent

I take my role in the closing process very seriously and when you choose me as your buying agent you will know that your interests are represented and you are in the best hands possible.

As a buyer I do ask that you get a pre-qualification from a lender at the beginning of the process. This avoids problems later on.

I know, from experience, that there is nothing worse than putting in the time and effort to find the perfect property and then having the deal fall through at the last minute due to financing difficulties.

If financing limitations are known upfront then I can work within those parameters to find you the perfect property within those defined limits.
