About Us

Hi, I'm Ian Woods. Some people call me “Mister Waterfront” because I love selling waterfronts. When I first got into the real estate business, I soon became one of the top three waterfront sales reps in the Barrie Board. That was several years ago. Now that I’m back with a total of 8 years experience in real estate sales, I’m focusing on selling waterfront properties whenever there’s an opportunity. But I also love selling all the other types of properties from residential to investment to commercial real estate. If I can sell a waterfront, you can be sure I can sell residential properties, whether it be a detached home with a beautiful view or an investment property for long or short term hold.

I left the real estate business about sixteen years ago to publish my own magazine. It eventually became quite popular and sold right around the world! Now that I’ve “been there, done that,” I'm back selling real estate with EXIT REALTY FIRST NORTH which is a new and exciting brokerage with a franchise office located in Barrie. I am looking forward to helping all my past, present and future clients and friends buy or sell real estate – whether it be a dream home, or cottage or investment property.

Rather than wasting precious resources trying to find new clients by traditional advertising, I am putting my efforts into building a referral network of clients and friends whom I want to "keep up-to-date in the world of real estate." Every other month, I'm sending out a newsletter which contains important “TIPS FOR SUCCESS” in the world of real estate which I’d be happy to send to you, dear reader. I’m sure you’ll find useful and enlightening. That way, when the time comes to buy or sell, you will be up-to-date on what you can do to get the most out of, perhaps, your single most important investment.

To get a free subscription to "Real Estate TIPS FOR SUCCESS" email me at: ian@misterwaterfront.com and I’ll put you on the emailing list. Or phone me (Direct: 705-720-6500, Toll Free: 1-888-713-8500) and I’ll put you on my snail mail mailing list.

If you’re looking to BUY some real estate at some point, I can set you up with my free “PropertySearchMadeEasy.ca” listing service. This will automatically send (to your email InBox) any and all listings in the Barrie Real Estate Board that meet your criteria, including what your are looking for, where exactly you want to buy, what price range, and what particular features you are looking for.

To sign up, just go to www.PropertySearchMadeEasy.ca.

Also, if you know of someone who is thinking about getting into the real estate business as a career, or perhaps thinking of switching to another real estate brokerage, please have them call me and I can show them the EXIT system ... which includes not only one of the best digital marketing systems, but is also one of the few companies that offers a pension plan!

Finally here is a testimonial from a couple who wanted some help buying an investment property:

“It is with great admiration and respect for Ian Woods and his professionalism in his career that I would not hesitate to refer Ian to anyone I know to help them buy or sell any real estate property.” ~ Stephen and Charlene McNaughton, Georgian Contracting, Hillsdale, Ontario.

If you think I can assist you in buying or selling real estate, please contact me. I’d love to help.
