As first-time home buyers, we couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide us than Nancy and Frank. Their experience and knowledge of the Ottawa housing market made the search for our first house seamless and enjoyable. We couldn’t be more grateful for their help and would recommend them to anyone who is looking to get the perfect home.

Nancy went above and beyond during my condo search. As a buyer from out of town as well as a first time buyer I had no idea where to start. Nancy eased all my worries with her knowledge and expertise. She went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. I could not have asked for a better person to help me find my first home.

Moving to a new city is daunting. Nancy made the experience seamless, comfortable and a pleasure. On our first visit, she was kind enough to take the time to drive us around, simply to get a feel for the city. This in itself sets her apart and shows her understanding of her clients’ needs. She is knowledgeable and really understood what we we were looking for. The help we received from Asha was also crucial in the process. She was extremely helpful in answering any questions and ensuring we received all the crucual information needed at such a busy time. Your team is truly exceptional, we feel so valued as clients and you made the process easy and enjoyable. Your dedication to the experience is commendable, and we are truly grateful that you made such a big decision for us so easy. Thank you so much.

Overall I was extremely happy. Nancy respected the fact that I needed time in the beginning to process things – so appreciated. Asha is simply awesome. Always got things done in a timely manner. They make a great team.

Nancy O'Dea not only sells exceptional properties, she herself is an exceptional Real Estate agent. She has a well-honed ability to understand quickly what her clients want and need using a kind of alchemy in which she conjures up best choices from her inventory of exclusive listings and what's worth looking at from MLS properties. She's quick to assess which of the properties shown are triggering the right response so that a productive conversation can take place about next steps but best of all she starts problem solving from the word go pulling, like Mary Poppins from her magic carpet bag, the just right mortgage broker, lawyer, financial advisor or home inspector to facilitate whatever transactions are necessary - and which you may not have thought you needed. Later on, she'll also pull out the perfect interior designer, contractor or painter for your new home and even advise on the dentist, book shop, bistro or butcher down the road which you may want to try out after you move in. For someone who is clever at what she does and likes quick action, Nancy has an amazing capacity to sit down with a client and work calmly through uncertainties, financial and strategic considerations, timing and wording of an offer and to keep astute track of action required. In this sense, she's a multi-faceted traffic director, therapist and friendly listener who still speaks her mind if you are going off track. She will always say what you need to hear not necessarily what you want to hear. This is because she operates with a strong adherence to ethical, honest and courteous behaviour. For this, she is respected by her colleagues and peers in the often combative Real Estate arena. This duality of ethical practices in tandem with business acumen has made her one of the top Real Estate agents in Ottawa. And when you are finally settled in your perfect place, you will on occasion find yourself missing her in your life. That's when you sneak in one last call to ask for her recommendation on the best massage therapist of fitness centre in the area... or maybe to say that you have a friend who wants an exceptional property along with an exceptional agent.
