If there’s one thing we feel truly passionate about, it’s where we live. We love it here so much that we’ve dedicated our careers to helping other people put down roots and make their homes in our communities.

Having been born and raised in the area, we like to think there’s not an inch of this region that we’ve left undiscovered. From sprawling farm houses and rustic cottages to modern waterfront condos, there’s no real estate type we haven’t helped someone buy or sell.

We believe that what makes communities great are the people that live in them, and that as business owners, we have a responsibility to give back.

With a rich history spanning back to the 1700s, Brockville, Prescott and the 1000 Islands region offer a unique mix of old and new architecture.

Originally settled back in 1785, Brockville has the distinction of being the first incorporated town in the province of Ontario. William Buell, a United Empire Loyalist was given a land grant, which he quickly divided and sold pieces of with plans of building a town. Using stone from local quarries to build, the town previously known as Buell’s Bay was born.

With easy access to the St. Lawrence River, the area was an ideal spot for settlement, allowing for communications to be sent up and down the river on steamer ships.

In the early 1800s, the government of Upper Canada approved the building of a courthouse and jail. The courthouse opened in 1810 and from there, the town continued to grow. In 1812, it was officially renamed Brockville, in honour of General Isaac Brock, a military and political leader in the War of 1812.
