Yes, we wish to sell that home, but shouldn’t we, as Realtors, ensure the security of our owners homes ?  Now, more than ever, based on the mo...

  I never thought that I would be promoting a company’s commercial, but this 2013 WestJet commercial truly brings tears to your eyes.

      Robb and his family have greatly enjoyed living in Paine Heights for over 15 years, and so I asked Robb to share a few thoughts with everyone as to why 61 Bayeau Road is a GREAT place in which to live. “Buffalo Bob Smith” (“Howdy Doody”) used to tape his show from his home which was located...
