Wendy Lepore – Broker
Bird lover. Jigsaw puzzle wizard. Tea drinker. Homeowner. Art and photography enthusiast. Baker. Avid reader and movie-goer. Sweet tooth. Gardener. Traveller. Cribbage champion (husband disputes this).
What do these things have to do with real estate (besides being a homeowner, that is)?
Not much, really. But they do give you an idea of who I am as a person, and no matter how technologically driven our world becomes, the business of real estate still comes down to people and homes. Finding a real estate expert you trust to help you buy and sell property means learning a little about their story, skills and experience.
Professionally, I am an award-winning real estate broker who has worked in the real estate industry since 2005. Working from my home office, I am closely supervised by two small Poicephalus parrots, while a ginger feline patrols the rest of the house.
Prior to my real estate career, I spent a dozen years in public relations, marketing and communications. The skills I honed during this period are invaluable when it comes to marketing sellers’ properties. They also benefit Ottawa home buyers and sellers, since strong communications skills are key to good client relationships, working with industry colleagues, and effective negotiation between multiple parties.
Switching to real estate was one of the best decisions I have made, in large part because of the diversity – in my clients, in their personal stories, and in the properties that bring us together.

About the Royal LePage
Shelter Foundation
Royal LePage is a big believer in giving back to the community and is the only Canadian real estate company with its own charitable foundation.
I can’t tell you how proud that makes me.
The Royal LePage Shelter Foundation is Canada’s largest public foundation dedicated to funding women’s shelters and violence prevention programs. All of the administrative costs of the Foundation are underwritten which means 100% of every dollar donated goes directly to the cause.
While I support a number of charities personally, professionally my heart lies with the Shelter Foundation, and I make a donation to the Foundation from each commission I earn. I also support Shelter Foundation fundraising events throughout the year and help promote this worthy organization whenever the opportunity arises.
Make your own donation today to the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation!
