Serving first-time home buyers and seasoned sellers since 2005, I help excited homeowners-to-be and those choosing to make Nova Scotia home. My wife and I made the big move ourselves in 2021. Why here? Why this community? Why now? Ask us anything about real estate or making a cross-country move to living in Nova Scotia a reality. We are here to help. It’s a privilege to walk alongside people investing in real estate for the first or umpteenth time. Explaining the process with patience and negotiating with your best interests in mind is my promise.
