An honest guide through the biggest decision of your life. I answer my phone, I communicate clearly and I make space for your questions. Pre-approval to keys in your hand, all of it.
The excitement, the questions you didn't know you had, the late-night "wait, what does that mean?" texts. Buying a home brings all of it. I'm here for the whole picture. Present. Honest. Calm under pressure. And yes, I actually answer my phone.
We move through it together. Clear, intentional and never in a hurry. Every decision should feel aligned, informed and unmistakably yours. With a few laughs along the way, because life's too good not to.
As a first time home buyer I was very nervous and did not know how to go about buying a home, but Rachel made the entire process so easy and stress-free. She went above and beyond for us and we will always be grateful to have found Rachel as our REALTOR®.
Clear steps, real timelines, no jargon. Here's how it goes when we work together.
Meet a mortgage specialist or broker to know your real budget. I'll connect you with the right one.
A private feed of new listings the moment they hit MLS, filtered to what you actually want.
Favourite, dismiss, lightbulb. I get smarter on what fits you with every property we see together.
Price, closing date, deposit, conditions, chattels. Every clause explained before you sign.
Inspection, financing, insurance. I guide you through each one until the sold sign goes up.
All documents forwarded. You sign the paperwork that finalizes the sale.
Time to book the truck, but you can only move in once it officially closes. NB Power transfer too.
Pre-closing walkthrough in the morning. The lawyers wrap the paperwork. Keys transfer to you when the lawyers tell us it's officially closed, typically late afternoon.
Unpack. Make it yours. I'm still your person for everything that comes after.
Knowing yourself narrows the search faster than any filter.
When my wife and I began planning our move back to NB from out west, Rachel was super helpful and easy to communicate with throughout the entire journey. She went to view houses on our behalf and sent us video tours while we were in transit. As first time buyers, I felt she was the most sensitive to that fact and really guided us through it.
Adjust price, down payment, rate and amortization. The math updates as you type. Standard Canadian semi-annual compounding.
Approximate, for budgeting only. Talk to a mortgage broker for accurate quotes.
On top of your deposit and down payment, plan for closing costs. In New Brunswick that's typically 1.5% to 4% of the purchase price. On a $400,000 home, expect roughly $6,000 to $16,000 on top of what you've already saved.
Here's the breakdown so nothing catches you off guard:
Numbers above are typical ranges for Southeastern New Brunswick in 2026. Your actual total depends on the home, your lender and the choices you make along the way. I walk through the math with every client before you sign anything, so you know exactly what you're working with on closing day.
Rachel made finding a home so easy! Purchasing our home online was scary enough, site unseen, from out of province. Rachel did virtual walk throughs with us and we trusted her energy. Beautiful person inside and out, who truly cares about her clients.
