What Jacquie loves most about being a realtor is the opportunity it gives her to work closely with homeowners and their families, giving them kid-glove service and assisting them through the buying and selling process, every step of the way. After running a successful music school and teaching piano for 23 years, Jacquie decided to pursue her real estate license. Once licensed, she worked for MAC Marketing Solutions for several years doing project marketing in new developments in Richmond, Vancouver, the interior, Coquitlam, and Surrey. During this time, she and Dominic bought and sold their own properties, gaining experience as investors.

In 2006, Jacquie decided to create her own business and moved her license to Sutton West Coast Realty in White Rock, where she could work and help people closer to home. With her own business, she found that she had the flexibility to do more for her clients, to help them with all aspects of their real estate needs.

Following the move, Jacquie took nearly every course the board offered, and became very knowlegable, very quickly. Her first year in business, Jacquie received a Platinum Award from Sutton. She has since received the top award in Sutton (Masters Award) for 2008 and 2009. She is currently a top producer in the office and has ranked in the top 2% of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board for 2007 and 2008.

Jacquie calls herself a “full-service realtor,” who strives to provide the best services at the best value for the price. Priding herself on quality and professionalism, Jacquie strives to provide her clients with premium services, including top-notch marketing and five-star client care.

Most recently, Jacquie is very excited to have moved back to MAC Marketing Solutions Inc. to be Sales Manager at 'Summerfield'--a brand new neighbourhood in South Surrey being built by Cressey, a reputable and quality builder in the Lower Mainland for over 40 years.
