I’m on a Mission to raise $10,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society. Losing my mom to Breast Cancer, I’ve made it my mission to help where I can. I do this by donating a portion of my income from home sales to the Canadian Cancer Society in honour of our buyer or seller and friend or family member who referred them. Who do you know that is considering buying or selling a home that you could refer? You can rest assure that not only will they get the award-winning service, but that a portion of the income we receive from the transaction will go toward a very worthy cause.
It’s easy to refer your friends, neighbours, associates or family members considering making a move. Simply call me at 416-477-2620
