Royal LePage recently celebrated it's 100th anniversary as Canada's real estate company. Royal LePage has over 18,000 agents across Canada. When Royal LePage acquired Delbro Real Estate in 1995, it gave Tod the opportunity to review who he wanted to be associated with and the corporate culture of that company. The individual agent and their own qualifications are the most critical considerations when clients choose a REALTOR® but the exposure in the market place and name recognition of Royal LePage was also important to Tod. Royal LePage, as a Canadian owned company, having relocation contracts with the Canadian government and Canada's largest companies was also important. Royal LePage also fully funds the administration for it's national charity The Royal LePage Shelter Foundation which is Canada's largest public foundation in support of local women's shelters.

Where you live, or where you choose to buy your next home, is often based on a sense of the community. When buying/selling your home or condo it's important your REALTOR® knows the features such as parks and recreation as well as shopping and schools. The buyer of real estate will also be influenced by re-sale value, safety and convenience, and how the community is trending. We KNOW Winnipeg.

Choosing a listing agent or buyer agent can make a difference in how smooth the process goes. With over 4,000 listing or selling deals, Tod and Troy know that knowledge goes a long way in anticipating potential issues in a transaction before they happen. We all wish it was a perfect world but since that isn't realistic, careful planning, thoughtful discussions and implementation of the right strategy helps make a stressful time organized and successful!  We KNOW real estate,

Tod and Troy's parents, Bob and Merna, are now retired REALTORS®. Their successful careers provided a  foundation in real estate that their boys were proud to follow and continue. Bob started selling new homes for Ladco Homes in 1968 and when he transitioned into the re-sale real estate market, Merna joined him in 1980. Bob and Merna were one of the first husband and wife teams to market themselves together. They had a high profile business in the 1980's and were top 3 in sales for the Winnipeg Real Estate Board.

There are many marketing tools available and Tod and Troy use some, or all of them, depending on the property that is going on the market. Buyers shop differently than they did years ago. When Tod started in real estate in 1991 marketing was very different.  Now the use of multiple photos, detailed and accurate remarks, video, aerial photography, floor plan creation, social media and traditional print are all available to use. It is paramount to consider which are best to drive traffic and get booked showings to the specific type of home. An all original 1970's bungalow would have a very different marketing strategy than a 3 year old former show home. Tod and Troy will customize a plan that works best for YOUR home.
