My Passion for Real Estate and Helping Clients…

Yes, I’m in a wheelchair. I was born with Cerebral Palsy, and I’ve had to overcome obstacles my entire life. My most difficult obstacle? Other people’s perception of what I can and can’t do. I’ve learned that nothing is impossible, and as your Realtor I want to assure you that my tenacity and inability to accept limitations means you win! My job is to remove as much of your stress when buying or selling a home as possible!

 

BARRIER-FREE ACCESS LIVING – What you need to know

Do you or someone you know need the expert advice and assistance of a Realtor who specializes in helping individuals who require barrier-free accessibility? You see, it about more than just installing a few ramps, it’s about functionality and ease-of-use. I know this, because I live it. Here are a few facts you need to know:

  • According to StatsCan (2012), approximately 13.7% of the adult population are limited in their daily activities
  • This means a significant percentage of the Canadian adult population may require specialized living accommodation now, or in the future
  • Approximately 7% of the Canadian population deal with chronic mobility and accessibility issues
  • Accessibility isn’t about making do, accommodating, or overcoming, it’s about ensuring safety and peace of mind for users and care-givers
  • The prevalence of disability and mobility issues increases with age – Deal with today, plan for tomorrow
  • 8 out of 10 persons with a disability require the use of assistive devices
  • Sports and work-place injuries can result in life-long disability that require barrier-free access
