Exit Realty Group Brokerage - Belleville, Trenton, Stirling, Fra

I have lived in the Quinte Area (Belleville) most of my life.  I left Belleville to go to Queen's University but soon returned.  I love this area and am able to help you with your real estate needs.

My husband is retired military and I currently have 2 sons serving our great country in the military.  I am aware of the stress of moving for the military and the stress of our HHT (House Hunting Trip) but I am able to help ease the pain of moving.

My goal is to let you live your life while our team takes care of marketing and selling your home.  Our team wants to ensure that we sell your home as quickly as possible meeting the goals you have set forth.

My goal is to provide you with excellent customer service.  I want you to be my customer for life and to feel comfortable introducing me to others selling or buying.  Your referral is the greatest compliment you can give me.

 I serve Belleville, Trenton, Brighton, Frankford, Stirling, Picton and Marmora.

Quinte Area Sales Representative - DND Approved

First Time Home Buyers: 

I enjoy helping first time home buyers find the right home.  This is the largest investment of their lives.  I will explain the full process to First Time Home Buyers in detail using a non-pressure environment.  One of the most important concepts for First Time Home Buyers is having their finances in order. 

I am able to help direct First Time Home Buyers to other professionals that are necessary when purchasing a home. 

Military Relocation:

After speaking with you and learning of your requirements for your new home - I am able to put you on an automatic electronic system to send to you listings that fit your specifications.  This system is excellent to help determine what you are looking for.  This will help us during your HHT to eliminate as much wasted time as possible.  I can help in setting up meetings of other professionals as no extra costs to you.  You need to let me know the week of your HHT and we can pre-schedule appointments for professionals with no cancellation costs.

Belleville and CFB Trenton, ON Real Estate Sales Representative

Perhaps the most important task a REALTOR® can complete is that of providing you with the true Market Value of your home. Without this vital information, you could potentially lose money if your home is priced too low. On the other hand, you may initially price your home too high but, in the end, still sell it for an amount below Market Value. This usually happens for one of two reasons. First, if your home is priced too high it may be on the market for a longer than normal period and, consequently, be viewed as a 'problem' home by Buyers who wonder why it hasn't sold yet. Second, if your home does not sell at your price during prime time (i.e., spring) and you are forced to wait for another up turn in the market, you may end up incurring additional expenses or find yourself lowering the price to a lesser amount than if it had been priced properly to start. Regardless of the reason, if your home is initially overpriced, you run the risk of selling below Market Value or not selling your home at all.

So what is Market Value? First, Market Value is not necessarily the value appraised for municipal property tax purposes. Market Value for residential real estate sales can be described as "the highest price the property will bring to a willing Seller if exposed for sale on the open market for a reasonable time to find a willing Purchaser. The Buyer and Seller should not be under undue pressure, necessity or peculiar circumstances." For example, if your neighbour is divorcing, sticks a "For Sale by Owner" sign on the front lawn, and sells it two days later, he or she may not have sold the property for 'Market Value'. More specifically, the sign did not expose the home to the entire market, there was not enough time for proper market exposure, and there was reason to believe the Seller may have been under duress to sell.

· REALTORS® have access to the Multiple Listing System (MLS) and can put your property on the MLS system where it can be viewed by all REALTORS®. As a MLS listing, it can also be seen by Buyers from all over the world. Most of the larger Real Estate companies also have their own internet sites where you can see listings from all over the country.  

· Prescreening of potential Purchasers is also a valuable and time-saving task a good REALTOR® will perform on behalf of a client. In other words, a REALTOR® will determine if a potential Buyer is serious about purchasing a home by confirming he or she has been pre-approved for a mortgage. After all, why go through the aggravation of preparing and showing your home to someone who is not serious or cannot afford to buy your house? Furthermore, if there are 300 REALTOR®s in your area and they each have two serious, pre-approved Buyers, the quality exposure should be obvious.


• Negotiating on your behalf at the time of an offer is another example of when a REALTOR®'s services will be important. A third party REALTOR® can make the process more efficient by reducing the 'emotion' and by concentrating on the facts. An experienced REALTOR® will use his or her skills to negotiate compromises on items such as chattels, possession date and, of course, price.
