Elementary
Realtor interviews business
Allow me to introduce myself as Jacqueline Watson, a Realtor in the Toronto/GTA area. However, my expertise extends beyond real estate. I am also a Mediator specializing in Labour Relations. My passion lies in more than just selling homes; I strive to transform lives and empower individuals to achieve financial freedom through home ownership.
In addition to my real estate endeavors, I am building a thriving community through my podcast, Elementary. This platform allows me to engage with various businesses and share their stories. My career path initially began in Toronto & GTA, coinciding with a successful tenure as a Director of Labour Relations, in healthcare working in the long term care retirement and commune services industry, which I hold dear to my heart.
Combining my passions, I feel incredibly fortunate to work as both a Realtor and a Labour Mediator. Each day, I have the privilege of doing what I love, and I am immensely grateful for this opportunity. The journey that has led me here has been remarkable, and I cherish every experience along the way.
Furthermore, I recently had the honour of joining the Pilot Place board. Witnessing the incredible impact this organization has on people's lives fills me with gratitude. I am delighted to volunteer my time and contribute in any way possible to support their noble mission.
Elementary
Confused about whether to buy, sell, or just sit tight? You’re not alone—and in today’s GTA market, confusion is the most expensive mistake you can make.
On this episode of Elementary, I dive into one of the biggest questions I keep hearing lately: “I’m so confused… should I buy, should I sell, or should I wait?”
Downsizers, move-up buyers, and anyone feeling stuck in the current Toronto/GTA market—this one’s for you. I unpack the messy middle of decision-making and share how to start with what really matters most: your lifestyle. Because here’s the truth—your home has to fit the life you’re living right now, not just the one you used to have.
We talk about:
- Why lifestyle always comes before square footage.
- What downsizers should keep in mind (hint: it’s not about the number of bedrooms).
- How to approach the “sell first or buy first?” dilemma.
- Why knowing your real numbers—not guesses—can make or break your plan.
- The importance of big-ticket items like roofs, furnaces, and driveways in today’s buyer’s market.
- Why bridge financing is your secret safety net.
And of course, I close with a look at what’s really happening in the market right now: conditions are back, deals are out there, and yes—you still need a strong marketing plan (no, a lawn sign isn’t a strategy).
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, this episode will help you cut through the noise and get clear on your next step.
