Working with Anette and her team at Downsizing in the Bay of Quinte and Exit Realty was an exceptional opportunity and experience. They helped declutter, clean, organize, and fully prepare our home - work that we never would be able to do ourselves. The transformation was incredible, and our property got sold for more than we excepted .
What was more outstanding and incredible that all the support from beginning to the end we got from Anette and her team. She's very knowledgeable, caring. Constantly were checking on us if we needed help and when we needed it she stepped in right away. She made the entire process stress free. We didn't gain just a relestate agent but more importantly we made a fantastic relationship in between us. 100% highly recommended and a million +++++ thumbs up. Thank you! -Agnes T.

Anette didn’t just sell my house for a great price—she helped me move forward with my life.”
After losing my wife, I wasn’t sure what to do next. I was planning to rent, but Anette helped me realize that buying a home made more sense financially—and personally. Thanks to her guidance, I found a place I truly love and saved a lot of money in the long run.
She’s incredibly hardworking, compassionate, and has a great team behind her. Her husband Mark was also a huge help—preparing the house, cleaning up after an ice storm, and addressing everything the home inspector flagged. Together, they’re a fantastic team, and I can’t recommend them enough. -Ted A.

I’ve known Anette for a long time, and if there’s one thing you should know, it’s that she puts her whole heart into helping families through downsizing. I’ve seen how much care she brings to every detail — from organizing and decluttering to making sure the home is truly ready for the next chapter. She doesn’t just sell houses; she walks alongside people during a huge life transition and makes it less overwhelming. The way she combines her real estate expertise with compassion is honestly rare. If you’re even thinking about downsizing, you couldn’t ask for a better person to have in your corner. - Jennifer P.

It was a pleasure working with Anette on her recent
photoshoot. Their professionalism and deep knowledge of the real estate industry were evident from the start. They had the home perfectly prepared—staged, decluttered, and ready for photography—which made my job seamless and efficient.

Annette and Mark are very pleasant and understanding. I feel very confident in downsizing and this next chapter of my life. I was so overwhelmed at the thought of it. Not sure where to start. Now I’m actually excited. -Christine W.

The house was listed before with no luck. This time with Anette, it sold in just a few weeks. She’s the real deal—straightforward, hardworking, and she doesn’t disappear once the sign goes up. -Sue K.
Honestly, I didn’t know where to start. My house was packed full, and the idea of moving felt impossible. Anette showed up with a plan (and then Mark with the trailer!) and suddenly it didn’t feel so scary. We got it done, and the house looked amazing by the time it hit the market. -Grayson. P
