I’ve often said that a good realtor should be a good community ambassador.
So, starting last July, I made it my mission to get involved in my local community — and I’ve had a blast doing it! Here are some photos from various events this past year.
Meet the 2019 Winners of My Monthly Gift Card Giveaway
Starting last summer, I have been giving away a gift card to redeem at a local business each month.
Typically, the gift card (or gift certificate) has a value of $50 and is redeemable at a local restaurant.
Why host a monthly gift card giveaway, you ask? Well, it…
- …supports local businesses.
- …highlights some of what makes Fort Erie great.
- …rewards my followers.
- …allows me to connect with local residents by email.

Brent is hard-working, motivated, and friendly. It was a pleasure working with him through the process of selling my home. He is a modern agent with old-fashioned manners.

Residents of Fort Erie can find all of them (and more) at the Bell Tower, located in the heart of Bridgeburg. In episode eight of The Fort Erie Podcast, co-owner and operator Marc Poisson shares the journey he and his partner, Noel, took — selling their house, cashing in their chips, and acquiring not only an old church, but Sub Culture right around the corner.

[Brent did] a great job walking me through the entire process of selling our house and buying another house. He sent me multiple video messages to keep me on the loop. He even volunteered to take my dog out when I couldn’t…who does anything like that? Only Brent! He’s an amazing real estate agent!

Today, my wife and I collected four carts full of donations (plus $140 in gift cards) for Community Outreach Program Erie (COPE) by hosting a food drive at the entrance of Sobeys in Fort Erie.
