My wife and I have now worked with Ashlee and Brenda on three separate occasions; each of which has proven to be an exceedingly positive experience. I am in the Canadian Armed Forces, and therefore am posted every two or three years. Working with a realtor who understands the demands that are inherent in a military lifestyle was critically important for us when choosing a realtor.
We bought our most recent house in December 2016. We wanted to find a home that we not only loved, but that we would be able to sell with relative ease when the time came to be posted again. When we put our house on the market in April 2018, less than a year and a half after we initially bought it, we were apprehensive about how well we would do in the market. Fortunately, we accepted an above asking offer four days after we put the house up. We also had multiple offers that we were able to choose from, which gave us leverage in dealing with interested buyers.
There is no doubt that the reason we had such a positive experience selling our home was because both Ashlee and Brenda genuinely care about their clients and work exceptionally hard to meet their clients’ needs. To give a few examples, they completely staged our home for us and had it professionally cleaned before showings started. In addition, they set us up with a respected realtor in our new town.
Overall, Ashlee and Brenda were consummate professionals, with whom we would be excited to work with again for future real estate ventures. We really can’t recommend them strongly enough. If you are in the process of buying or selling a home, the first move you should make is to call Ashlee and Brenda Odam. You will be exceptionally satisfied with the results.

When it came time to sell our home we immediately thought of Brenda and Ashlee Odam, our former neighbours and a dynamic duo that have a stellar reputation in the community and in particular in our neighbourhood. However our home, like everyone else's home is our single biggest investment, so choosing the right realtor was a very big decision. Right from the beginning Brenda and Ashlee's attention to detail, responsiveness and expertise came shining through and their presentation on how they would sell our home was outstanding. After choosing Brenda and Ashlee to list our home, they not only followed through on every single detail of their proposal, but they far exceeded our expectations in service, staging, photography, video and most importantly drumming up interest in our home and getting traffic through it. When it came time to open our home for offers, we sold it the same day. We were very happy with the offer and most importantly confident it was at a fair market price. Once our home was sold, the help and service has continued to flow as we prepare to move to our new address. It's stressful selling and buying a home and getting everything right, I can assure you that hiring Brenda and Ashlee to sell your home will be one of the best decisions you can make.

We would like to thank Brenda and Ashlee for being such hard-working, creative and trustworthy agents. From the moment we started working with them, we felt completely confident in their abilities. This fantastic duo did such an amazing, thorough job with the entire selling process. They staged our home beautifully, gave great advice and, most importantly, sold our home! We cannot thank you both enough for everything you have done and are looking forward to purchasing our next home with you.

Ashlee was very helpful with buying my first home. She made me feel comfortable when it was a stressful time, and was available anytime for my many questions/concerns. She worked hard at making sure I got what I was looking for and that I was happy with the home that I bought. Throughout the whole process, I was happy to have Ashlee to help me make this an easier transition into a homeownership.

Having not sold a home in many years, my experience with Ashlee and Brenda was very positive, professional, and Ashlee helped make this experience a very good one and managed to reduce my panic during times of stress. I would recommend listing with Odam Real Estate for a rewarding selling of your home.

First I would like to thank you The Odam Team for the tremendous work you put into the selling of my home. As you know, I tried a different realtor with no success other than asking me to keep lowering my price. You and Ashlee came in, said no way, we can sell this beautiful home. We made some decorating changes for the new pictures and then you were there for me whenever I needed to talk or ask questions. You showed the home regularly, kept me updated on all the progress and got the job done with as little stress on me as possible.
I am so grateful for you two great ladies and your sales techniques, integrity and hard work. I will be recommending you to any of my friends who are thinking of selling their homes.
Thank you again,

When we first decided to sell our home in Stittsville, we had the property assessed by another real estate agent that we had worked with selling a different property. We were not impressed with the amount that they recommended so went to Brenda for a second opinion. Not only was her assessment higher, but her confidence and enthusiasm convinced us to switch to her. It was absolutely the right decision! Not only did she sell our property at a significantly higher value, she focused her efforts on selling the value of the property as opposed to selling us on lowering our price. Thank you Brenda you were fantastic.

We thank our lucky stars that we chose Brenda and Ashlee to be our sales representatives. Selling a home is such a daunting experience but they both made the whole experience such an easy and memorable one. From the very beginning, we were impressed with their thoroughness and professionalism; Brenda took the lead as Ashlee was very pregnant but both were extremely helpful and knowledgeable.
Their comprehensive package, which consists of a virtual tour, staging and cleaning service resulted in a sale within four days of listing (NOTE this was over the weekend so the timeframe was actually less). Not to be outdone in the sale department, Brenda worked tirelessly to find our next home and within two weeks, these picky buyers had our next home, which we still love and suits us to a tee.
Brenda and Ashlee were more than just our real estate agents, they became our friends who still keep in contact and without a hesitation, we have recommended them to anyone who is either selling or buying a new home.

I consider myself to be truly lucky and blessed to have met you and made use of your real estate services. The daunting task of buying a new home and selling my existing residence, was a smooth transition thanks to you. The dynamic duo of Ashlee and Brenda compliment each other while working tirelessly towards a common goal. You honestly could not have worked any harder throughout the entire process. The staging of my home was a creative demonstration of your exceptional design talents. I felt this service allowed us to secure maximum dollar value for my home. Feedback after showings was prompt with follow up calls to agents and potential buyers. When reviewing legal documents/offers you were extremely patient and took the time to review all pertinent information making sure I understood the language and clauses. Your honest and professional approach was only outdone by your willingness to go well beyond what other agents would provide. It truly became an Odam family event to sell my home and provide support during the actual move process. From the loading of the POD, completing minor home repairs, to moving boxes onto shelves.... you folks were present. Follow up visits to my new home and inquiries to how I was settling in, only cemented the fact that you genuinely cared for your clients and their wellbeing. I really cant say enough to thank you for all you have done. I wish you continued success in all your future listings and family events.
