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.

🚨 "The Bank of Canada just held rates. Your neighbour just listed. And buyers are FINALLY showing up. Is NOW the moment? I sat down with @mortgagesbykimberley and we spilled EVERYTHING. 🍵"
Elementary with Jacqueline Watson | Guest: Kimberley Miller, @mortgagesbykimberley
The Bank of Canada kept rates unchanged — no surprise there. But here's what IS shifting: buyers are showing up. Real ones. And prices? More favorable than they've been in a couple of years.
Kimberley joined me just as spring kicked off, and we talked about everything from mortgage realities to market momentum. She's been busy — and so have I — which means the market is DOING something.
We talked about a listing that sold in two days. Conditions fulfilled. Deal done. Two years ago that same property would have gone for significantly more — but the sellers still walked away with a strong result. That's the market right now: not 2021, but not broken either.
We also talked about what's keeping buyers nervous. Inflation. Gas prices. Uncertainty south of the border. It's real — but so is the opportunity.
The takeaway:
If you're a buyer or seller trying to figure out your next move, the window is open. It won't stay this way forever.
