Thinking of buying and selling a home in Winnipeg in 2025? You’re not alone. With our ever-evolving Winnipeg real estate market, many homeowners are planning big moves—whether that’s upsizing, downsizing, or finding the perfect forever home in a different neighbourhood.

But let’s be real: doing both at once can feel like a lot. The good news? It can be smooth, stress-free, and even fun—with the right plan and the right Realtor (hi, that’s me 👋).

Here’s how I help my clients navigate this journey with confidence:

💬 1. Start with Your Financing Strategy

Before we prep your current home for sale or book showings, we need to know your numbers.

• Can you buy before you sell?

• What are your financing options in today’s Winnipeg housing market?

• Could bridge financing work for your situation?

Connecting with a trusted Winnipeg mortgage broker early on gives you clarity—and makes every step that follows easier and more strategic. 

🏘️ 2. Know What You're Looking For in Winnipeg

From character homes in Wolseley to new builds in Sage Creek, Winnipeg has something for everyone—but timing and availability vary.

If your dream home has unique features or is in a competitive area like Crescentwood, River Heights, or Bridgewater, it may take more time to find the perfect fit. That’s why we plan early and stay ready to move quickly when the right listing appears.

I help clients stay focused and flexible in their home search—whether it’s your first time buying or your fifth.

🤝 3. Work With a Realtor Who Offers Custom Service (That’s Me!)

Buying and selling simultaneously is all about timing and communication. I work closely with every client to build a plan that’s tailored to your goals, your timeline, and your comfort zone

We’ll cover:

• When to list your current home

• How to stage and prepare it (I have a background in interior design and home staging, too!)

• Possession timelines and offer strategies

• Contingencies to protect you during the transition

And because I’m fluent in Spanish and conversational in French, I’m able to support a wide range of buyers and sellers in their preferred language.

My approach is boutique, honest, and tailored. You’ll never be just another transaction.

Let’s make your next chapter your best one yet.

Selling your home doesn’t have to mean spending a lot of money on renos. With a few strategic, cost-effective staging tricks, you can create a space that captures 💕—and helps your listing stand out. Whether you're working with a tight budget or just want the biggest return on your investment, these staging tips will give you the best bang for your buck. 

1. Declutter & Depersonalize (Free!)

📦 Create a clean slate so buyers can imagine themselves in the space. Box up family photos, personal memorabilia, and excess decor. Less is always more when it comes to staging.

2. Fresh Coat of Neutral Paint (~$30-$60/room)

🎨 A simple paint refresh in soft, neutral tones (think greige, soft white, or warm taupe) can make rooms feel larger, brighter, and more inviting.

3. Curb Appeal Counts (~$100 or less)

🌼 First impressions matter. Trim hedges, add a fresh welcome mat, clean the front door, and plant some seasonal flowers in pots to create a warm welcome.

4. Lighting Update (~$50-$150/fixture)
💡 Swap out dated light fixtures for modern, affordable options. Brighter, well-lit rooms feel more open, cheerful, and spacious.

5. Strategic Furniture Placement (Free to low cost)
🛋️ Rearrange furniture to create flow and highlight the room’s function. Make sure each space has a clear purpose and doesn't feel overcrowded.

6. Staging with Purpose (~$50-$200 for small accents)
🖼️ Use cozy, coordinated accessories like throw pillows, rugs, and lamps to give each room a “story”—like a reading nook, office space, or relaxing retreat.

7. Mirror Magic (~$50-$100)
🪞 Hanging mirrors in small or dark spaces can reflect light and make rooms appear larger and brighter. They're functional and decorative!

8. Scent Matters (Free to ~$20)
🍋 A clean, fresh scent leaves a lasting impression. Open windows for fresh air or use subtle diffusers. Avoid overpowering or artificial smells.

9. Bathroom Boost (~$50)
🛁 New towels, a clean shower curtain, and a little greenery can transform a bathroom into a spa-like space.

10. Show Off Storage (Free)
🚪 Clear out 50% of what’s in your closets and cabinets. Buyers will peek, and you want to show off how spacious your storage areas are.

Staged to Sell.

Styled to Impress.

Let’s make your home stand out. ✨

With a little creativity and a modest investment, you can stage your 🏠 to appeal to today’s buyers—helping it sell faster and for top dollar. Often, it’s not about breaking the bank with major renovations, but about refreshing what you already have. A simple reworking of furniture placement, updated accessories, or a few strategic tweaks can completely transform the feel of your home.
