With over 15 years’ of experience selling both residential and cottage properties, Julie’s passion for Muskoka keeps growing.
Julie lives the Muskoka dream that many people wish for! Over 30 years ago, Julie and her husband Ed and their four sons moved to Muskoka. After years of renting cottages across the Muskoka and Parry Sound/Georgian Bay areas with their growing family, they were fortunate to be able to make the move for her husband’s new job.
Julie understands first-hand both the stresses and thrills of finding that special new home or vacation property.
In the summer of 2014, when her boys were grown and had finished their post-secondary education, Julie and Ed bought their dream cottage on an island on Georgian Bay. Years later, they have turned that dream into their own little piece of paradise where their family gathers for precious quality time together every spring, summer, and fall.
Julie’s mission is to show her clients that the Muskoka lifestyle is attainable and that she can turn their dreams into reality. According to Julie, “it’s that pinch-me moment when clients find the special place they never thought they’d find; when they realize their dreams are actually within reach.”
