Hi, I'm Chris!
I’m Ottawa-based, working with YOW Home Team at Innovation Realty, and I'm passionate about helping people make confident, informed real estate decisions. My approach is simple: I work with transparency, integrity, and a genuine commitment to my clients’ best interests. Whether you’re buying, selling, or exploring your next move, I’m here to guide you through every step of the process. In a market that’s constantly evolving, I make it a priority to stay current on local trends and economic conditions so I can provide trusted advice. I value the relationships I build, and believe that real estate is about more than a single transaction — it’s about ongoing partnership and support as goals and circumstances change. If you’re thinking about your next chapter in real estate, contact me and let's explore your options together.

Professional Services
Buying
As your Buyer Designated Representative, I can make the process of house hunting much easier and more efficient than if you did it all yourself. Having the Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR®) designation means I focus on working directly with buyer-clients at every stage of the home-buying process.
Selling
Selling a house on your own can be a daunting task, but with me by your side as your Seller Designated Representative, it becomes a breeze. Together with YOW Home Team, I'll help you prepare your home for sale. Having the Seller Representative Specialist designation means I'll develop marketing and pricing strategies, review offers, negotiate favourable contract terms, and help ensure a smooth transition to your next home.

Client-Focused
Your time is valuable.
That's why I'll take
the time upfront to understand your unique wants, needs
and dislikes to ensure
our time together is as
productive as possible.
Responsive
You have questions and I have answers. I treat my clients with respect and I address their questions and concerns promptly. I'll make sure you feel confident and empowered when making important real estate decisions.
Referral Network
This industry is all about who you know. I can connect you with competent mortgage brokers, lawyers, home inspectors, tradespeople, and other professionals to ensure you

It was a great time at the BWC2025 conference connecting with REALTORS® from across Canada and the U.S. We had the opportunity to listen to and interact with some inspiring and entertaining speakers like Colonel Chris Hadfield, Manjit Minhas, and Jay Leno. Jay Leno's stand-up routine was hilarious, and at the end of his performance he raised over $100k in donations from the audience to the Children's Hospital Aid Society by auctioning off private tours of his extensive car collection. The Alberta Real Estate Association also donated over $100k. #bwc2025 #fairmontbanffsprings #realestateconference2025 #yowhometeam #innovationrealty⭐️ #ottawarealestateboard #ontariorealestateassociation #albertarealestateassociation #childrenshospitalaidsociety #fundraisingforchildren #hospitalcharity #childwelfare #canadianrealestateassociation #laughteristhebestmedicineButton

Congrats to our buyer clients who are smartly planning ahead & keeping their options open. They've used a HELOC to purchase a large 2- bedroom condo apartment in a well-managed building.

I enjoyed my time today at Innovation Realty Ltd., hearing the Dare To Be Vulnerable Project share some personal stories about mental health struggles & having the courage to be vulnerable in asking for help. We all struggle at times, and empathy connects us when someone shows their vulnerability. The vulnerable yet strong women on the board of this non-profit social enterprise are spreading good vibes. Happy International Women's Day!Button

It was so powerful hearing Earvin "Magic" Johnson Jr. speak at the Reality conference organized by OREA. I definitely felt the magic. His words were genuine, authentic & inspirational, & he communicated with humility despite his enormous success & philanthropy. He worked the room off the stage during his presentation, taking questions from the audience & generously giving photo ops. Mr. Johnson became visibly emotional when a young person born in the early 2000s told him that seeing him play basketball on YouTube has been an inspiration on the basketball court. It was heartwarming & impactful to listen to, see & get to know this incredible person close-up. I'd highly recommend attending an event where he speaks. #inspirationalspeakers #motivationalspeakers #rolemodels #philanthropists #successfulbusinessman #leaders #yowhometeam #innovationrealtyButton
