About Me

Hi! I'm Merilee and I'm so glad you're here. 

I have made it my mission to help connect people & families to their perfect home since 2008. I'm passionate about working with people & committed to helping you above and beyond the “key” transaction.

I'm dedicated to making the real estate process as seamless & stress free as possible. I'll walk you through each step (with a huge smile on my face).

When it comes to selling; I have a passion for design &  will help stage your home to make it shine. Whether utilizing your own decor or bringing in items from my “stash” I will work to stage your home to appeal to the highest number of potential buyers thus maximizing your sale price.

I was born and raised in Richmond, received my BA majoring in Art & Design from UBC, &  currently reside in Ladner with my husband & two little boys. I love wineries (wine in general), travelling with my siblings & brunching with my girlfriends!

I take pride in offering a refreshing and energetic real estate experience while providing services that go above and beyond the keys! 

I look forward to helping you with your real estate adventures, Merilee

She "got" us!

When we first met Merilee we were under a lot of stress as we had a little one on the way and we were on a bit of a deadline before her arrival. From the moment we met Merilee we knew she was a perfect match for us because she "got" us.  She understood our needs and her honesty, professionalism and patience eased the stress of being first time home buyers.  She went above and beyond and we loved how personable, genuine and caring she was. Her energy is infectious and after spending so much time together we're glad to call her our friend.  Even after a year of helping us she still checks in on us just to see how were doing. She helped us find our perfect home where we can retire and grow old in and for that we will be forever grateful.

Excellent job from beginning to end...

Merilee helped me sell my mother’s townhouse in Richmond which was complicated since it was an estate sale and I had family members living in the townhouse from time to time during the process.  Merilee did an excellent job from beginning to end, giving me an accurate picture of the market, helping to present the townhouse in the most attractive way, stick handling the logistics with family and negotiating an excellent price for me in a multiple offer scenario.

 Merilee demonstrated an excellent understanding of the technical issues surrounding the sale process, had a persuasive but personable persona with the other realtors interested in the property and helped me navigate the process in tight timelines. 

Merilee also helped me find and purchase a smaller condominium in Burnaby.  She found properties for me to look at and then vetted the strata documents very carefully – in some cases finding significant issues that made the property unattractive.  She helped find a solid building with a good maintenance history and, again, negotiated very effectively with the realtor selling the unit.  Given the strong market for entry level units at the time, I was tempted to pay the asking price or even go above that price.  Merilee determined that in the particular circumstances that was not necessary, and actually negotiated a price significantly under the asking price, saving me a considerable amount of money.

 I should also mention that when Merilee was not available for certain aspects of the transactions, her partner Marina helped and did an excellent job.

 I would highly recommend the team to my friends and relatives.

Walked us through every step...

As first time home buyers, the process of purchasing a home seemed daunting. Merilee walked us through every step of the way and made the process go so smoothly! She had so much patience and was great at managing our expectations. She offered us endless support and guidance and got us into our dream home in just over a month! 

Whenever we had a question, she was quick to respond and quelled any fear or stress that we had. She was very on top of facilitating the process with our mortgage broker and notary. The level of communication with Merilee was always fantastic!! Not only is she hardworking and professional, but she’s extremely personable and made the process fun! We shared so many great memories over our house hunting experience. 

We would highly recommend Merilee to anyone that is looking for a realtor. She went above and beyond what we ever could have expected in a realtor. Thank you Merilee for everything you’ve done for us! We are so grateful to you for all of your hard work!

Happy with our new home

Brandon and I were first time home buyers, who really didn't know much about the real estate market. We were so lucky to work with Merilee; she was so professional and really knew her stuff. It was such an exciting process and one we will never forget, and that was all made possible by Merilee. We are so happy in our new home and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for the best possible experience when it comes to buying a home! Thank you so much Merilee, you're not just our realtor but a great friend!
