At Downsizing In Bay of Quinte, we understand that moving can be emotional and overwhelming. That’s why we’re here—to make the process smooth, stress-free, and even enjoyable!

With a background in Interior Design and Psychology/Sociology (specializing in grief, loss, and bereavement), I bring a unique blend of expertise and compassion to the downsizing process. My husband, Mark, is the backbone of our operation. With over 25 years of experience in construction, he is patient, hardworking, and truly great with people. While I focus on marketing and finding buyers for our clients’ homes, Mark works behind the scenes, ensuring every property is prepared, repaired, and presented at its absolute best. He also oversees our trusted crews, making sure the entire process runs smoothly.

Together, we have renovated, built, and sold countless properties, managed rental properties and land development, and created a one-stop downsizing solution. Instead of families juggling multiple companies and contractors, we handle everything—from selling the home to coordinating movers, decluttering specialists, and tradespeople.

Our passion for helping families transition into their next chapter was deeply inspired by our own parents' and grandparents' experiences. We saw firsthand how overwhelming downsizing can be—managing multiple services, supervising crews, and navigating a complex process with little support. We knew there had to be a better way.

That’s why we created Downsizing In Bay of Quinte—a boutique real estate service designed to handle every detail. From selling your home to managing movers, decluttering specialists, contractors, and more, we offer a stress-free, seamless experience, allowing families to focus on what truly matters.

If you or a loved one are considering downsizing, we’d love to help make the process easy, efficient, and even enjoyable
