"Selling our Stonebridge home with Lisa was the most satisfying real estate transaction we’ve experienced. Having sold several homes in the past, including one without an agent, Lisa’s intimate knowledge and exclusive focus on Stonebridge properties, her energy, professionalism and determination to get the job done clearly demonstrates the value she alone brings to the transaction.
Simply put, it was a pleasure working with Lisa and we don’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone considering selling or buying a Stonebridge property."
"After working with another agent and nothing happening with the sale of our home, we turned to Lisa. Lisa and her team came in and professionally staged our home, gave us great tips and advice, took professional photographs, and put our home on her circuit of open houses. Lisa and her team were so friendly and professional and without telling Lisa, she was able to spot each and every upgrade we put into our home and the exact value of those upgrades. We were extremely impressed by our experience with Lisa and have already personally recommended her to friends and neighbours and for sure we will be using her in the future!
Thanks for a great experience,"
"Our Stonebridge sale with Lisa was the sixth home we’ve sold since the early 80’s. Her exclusive in-depth experience in the Stonebridge market was absolutely key in maximizing the return we got on our investment. Unlike our previous home sales, represented by well known professionals in the business, Lisa’s unique blend of corporate business sales experience, personality and Stonebridge product knowledge creates a winning combination for both the buyer and seller within this niche market.
"
"Dear Lisa,
Maggie and I would like to thank you for all your efforts in selling our home. We have moved many times and have sold numerous homes. The professionalism of you and your team combined with the marketing you used to showcase our home exceeded all our previous experiences. We truly appreciate the way you kept us informed of all activity on the listing.
The way you presented our home was very professional. Your attention to detail was the key factor in selling our home in such a timely manner. We have recommended that family and friends use your exceptional services and will continue to do so.
We would also like to tell you how nice it was to get to know you personally. We don’t know where you get the energy; you seem to work endlessly on community business and committees that benefit us all. We can’t think of anybody who has their finger on the pulse of Stonebridge the way you do.
Again, thank you so much for all that you did.
Gratefully,"
"Engaging Lisa Hopkyns to list and sell our house was the best decision we made. Every step in the process was professionally done and very clearly presented. In the current economic market selling can be a very stressful undertaking since you are most likely looking for a completed sale in time for your next purchase.
Lisa made sure to keep us fully informed, eased our concerns and provided appropriate information at the correct time. In our opinion you won't go wrong in choosing Lisa!"
"If you live in Stonebridge, the only agent you should consider using to sell your house is Lisa Hopkyns. She is the “Queen of Stonebridge” for good reason. She sold our house in just 4 days for $5,000 over the asking price in a slow market!!
How did she do this? Hard work, marketing savvy, and strong connections with buyers’ agents.
The morning after we met with Lisa, she brought her team of experts in to stage and take photographs of our entire house. She had our house listed on MLS and her website just a few hours later. By the following day, Lisa had developed a marketing plan, amazing color brochures, and sent out loads of e-mails to buyers’ agents to generate interest in our property.
While most other agents would have been trying to reduce our expectations and our sale price, Lisa was showing our house to potential buyers by the dozen. She generated so much interest that we received multiple offers over our asking price.
It was amazing to us that Lisa charged us the standard commission charged by all other real estate agents, but had a whole team of people working on our behalf. No wonder she sells more homes in Stonebridge for more money than anyone else--she actually cares about her clients and takes pride in being the best!
Hire smart. Hire Lisa Hopkyns to sell your house."
"Working with Lisa has been a great experience. We had to sell our house during a very tough time of year – December – and we were very stressed about getting it sold when we needed to. Lisa was confident and knowledgeable and put our minds at ease right away. She had our house sold in less than two weeks and took care of everything for us. Lisa knows how to sell and what Stonebridge has to offer potential buyers. If you are selling or buying a home in Stonebridge – there is NO ONE else to call.
"
"Lisa
Thank you so much for the excellent work you have done towards selling our home. You have made things so easy for us and the kids. We appreciate everything you have done and you have gone above and beyond our expectations.
Thank you so much!"
"On behalf of Robin and I, we just wanted to give Lisa our sincere appreciation for the amazing service provided to us since May. When we decided to relocate to Ottawa from Kingston, one of the stressors was having no idea of where to start looking for a real estate agent. Friends of ours recommended Lisa from their interactions with her at open houses (They were already working with an agent prior to meeting Lisa).
After only one showing Lisa knew precisely what we were looking for in a house. Subsequently, any property we went through from then on, she knew immediately if it should be on the short list or not. Lisa put herself in our shoes whenever looking at properties together in terms of practicality, value and resale.
The fact that impresses us the most was Lisa’s honest and dedicated approach in handling clients. Due to the hospitalization of an immediate family member in Kingston, the purchase of our home in Ottawa became secondary priority over the summer. Even after we sold our house back in Kingston, Lisa never pressured us into any particular properties she showed knowing the closing date of our Kingston home was fast approaching.
The professionalism and the prompt service received from Ashley and Lisa were exceptional. Lisa’s knowledge of property values in Kanata, Riverside South and Barrhaven not just Stonebridge was very helpful as we were not familiar with the neighbourhoods. All of the advice she gave us was in our best interest strictly. In the end, we bought the “perfect” home in Stonebridge effortlessly with the assistance of Lisa’s expertise.
We can safely say that our experience could not have been any better. With all the other stressors we endeavoured this summer, Lisa personal approach will never be forgotten. We will recommend Lisa to anyone and everyone who asks for a real estate agent.

""Lisa's knowledge of the Stonebridge real estate market allowed her to list my home, find a buyer, and meet my asking price all in one day! The advice she provides prior to listing ensures homes will be marketed to their fullest potential. I would definitely recommend Lisa when selling a house in the Stonebridge community, her reputation and experience in the area
produced effective results that made the ideal sale."

"Lisa,
On behalf of myself and my family I want to thank you for the excellent service you provided us over the past few months. As you know, we sold our house in Markham and moved to Ottawa. This can be a very stressful time for a family and you helped us buy our new house with as few worries as possible. The purchase was a difficult one for us as we were new to the city and did not know the different neighbourhoods. You were patient with us through snowstorms and spring floods :-). In total we looked at nearly 70 houses together and families spent more than 1 Sunday together. You worked with us to ensure we had proper inspections done including water, sewer and house and most importantly introduced us to the neighbourhood where we now live. You worked with us to ensure a speedy negotiation that I feel we got great value for our dollar. We never felt pushed, but rather that you were there in our best interest. If anyone were to ask, I would recommend your services as first class."
"Dear Lisa:
Thank you so much for your commitment to selling our home. After some bad experiences we both seriously considered selling our house ourselves. Frankly we really didn't see any value to having an agent represent us.
You have completely changed our minds and we now understand the difference between an agent who puts their name on a sign on your front lawn and waits for your house to sell itself and an agent like yourself who actually works diligently to sell your house for the best possible price.
We were continually amazed at the lengths to which you were willing to go. Your expert knowledge on the Stonebridge area combined with your unique ability to show our home in it's best possible light led to more traffic of the right clients and ultimately the sale of our house. We were able to see first hand how much hard work you put in to doing the job right.
Your constant communication and guidance are second to none. We truely believe there isn't an agent out there who offers the same level of commitment. Frankly, anyone in Stonebridge who is considering selling their home would be making a big mistake by not making you their first and only call.
"

"Dear Lisa,
Now that the dust has settled and I have moved back to Burlington, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your efforts in making my transition an easy one! Your professionalism, knowledge of the market and work ethic are second to none! Your determination in making sure that I was a “happy camper” was over the top!
Even though I have moved so many times, you taught me some new marketing tactics, especially “staging the house”. I now realize how important this is to moving your home when the market is slow. Thanks for that!
Selling over the Christmas period in a slow market and me living in Toronto sure provided its challenges, but finally, the right offer was put on the table! Without your expertise, I don’t think it would have happened! Even when you were away and could not help, the Gale team stepped in. A total team effort all the way by the Gales Real Estate team! I would not hesitate in recommending Lisa Hopkyns to any perspective buyer or seller in the Ottawa region!
Thanks again for providing myself with your very professional real estate services!
Kindest regards
"
"Hi Lisa,
we would like to let you know that we have been very pleased with the process of selling our house. You and your staff have handled everything in a professional and efficient manner. Our house was very well advertised and you created a lot of traffic. Your knowledge of the Stonebridge market certainly provided an advantage to us and we are satisfied with the final sales price.
Thank you Lisa for making this a pleasant and stressfree experience and we will be happy to recommend your services. In our experience this was the most effective sales team we ever had the pleasure of dealing with.
"
"Lisa's experience and expertise in the Stonebridge community allowed us to sell our house during December which is typically the slowest time of the year for real estate. We tried selling our house on our own and using the services of another real estate agent but had no success. She was able to bring in the right client's and provided us with invaluable guidance throughout the negotiation process. Her commitment and professionalism are second to none and I would not hesitate to recommend her services to friends and colleagues."
