Why You Need a Buyer's Realtor – And Why We Have Three!

Let’s face it—purchasing a home, whether it’s your first or fifteenth, is a BIG DEAL! It’s one of the largest financial and emotional investments you’ll ever make. That’s why having a dedicated buyer’s realtor on your side isn’t just a good idea—it’s essential.

At Your Dream Team Quinte, we take this one step further. We don’t just have one buyer’s specialist—we have three! Kathleen, Kirsten, and Miranda each bring their own unique strengths and expertise to the home-buying process, ensuring you have the best possible experience from start to finish.

Why Work with a Buyer’s Realtor?

When you’re buying a home, it’s easy to get swept up in the excitement of finding ‘the one.’ But there’s so much more to consider beyond a beautiful kitchen or a spacious backyard. A dedicated buyer’s realtor helps with:

Finding the Right Home – We don’t just show you listings; we take the time to understand your needs and lifestyle to match you with the perfect home.

Negotiating the Best Price & Terms – A great realtor knows how to secure the best deal, ensuring you don’t overpay and that your contract terms work in your favour.

Identifying Updates & Future Potential – We have the experience to spot hidden gems, potential red flags, and renovation possibilities that could add long-term value to your investment.

Meet Our Buyer’s Specialists:


Kathleen – The Strategist 

Kathleen has a keen eye for market trends and pricing strategies, and spotting (potential hidden) gems. She ensures her clients make informed decisions by analyzing comparables and negotiating fiercely on their behalf to ensure they are getting the best possible purchase. With Kathleen on your side, you can trust that you’re making a sound financial investment and finding something truly worthwhile. She puts herself in your shoes, truly undertaking all your needs and desires and finding you the best home for your future!



Kirsten – The Connector

With an extensive network and deep local knowledge along with great design and style sense, Kirsten helps buyers find homes and see beyond the obvious. She’s all about understanding what you truly want in a home and making sure you feel confident and comfortable every step of the way. With her husband in the trades, she has lots of connections to ensure even if you're buying a renovation, she can send you the right resources to complete any project!



Miranda – The Visionary

Passionate about old homes, design, and renovations, Miranda sees potential where others might not. She helps buyers envision possibilities, whether it’s a small update or a full transformation, making sure you invest in a home that grows with you. She has personal experience in income properties, cottages and rentals, along with Victorian and historic homes, with an abundance of local connections and renovation experience. She is a force, and one you'd want on your side!

Your Dream Team is Here for You

DRUMROLL PLEASE! 
We are soooo thrilled, excited & tickled pink to welcome Miranda as a Licensed Realtor to our dynamic Team! Miranda wears so many hats, so here’s a few to get to know her (in case you didn’t already!)… We met Miranda as “Easthill Revival” on Instagram, and after selling her parents’ beautiful Old East Hill home, we then sold one of her gorgeous restoration projects, Crest View. She then referred us to family who had a condo that was empty & required staging, and we loved working with M so much, we asked if she would help us and the rest was history… If you’ve been a client of ours in the past 2 years, you’ve likely met and fallen in love with her vivacious personality and smiling face, and noticed how strong 💪🏼 she is when moving furniture! With a background in Graphic Design and Historic home renovation, Miranda has the experience needed to show a respectful appreciation for our City’s heritage homes, while bringing a plethora of skill and knowledge to the table. She owns multiple investment and recreation properties and is well versed in being a landlord and Airbnb Host. She has a beautiful young family, is a twin mom, often found on the ski hills in winter, and on the lake in the summer. A big foodie, you’ll get all the best food recs from her, including in Toronto, where she lived for years. We are so, so excited and happy to have her an official part of Your Dream Team Quinte! Please welcome her with us, and we look forward to working with you or your family & friends soon!
