welcome to my website
My name is Rebecca Ness and I am your local Collingwood real estate agent. For me, real estate is about helping people move forward into the next chapter of their lives with clarity and confidence. I would love to help you find your next home and discover this wonderful area.
I have called collingwood home for nearly 2 decades
I moved Collingwood when my kids were 4 and 7 and brought them up on the shores of Georgian Bay. We skied in the winter and went to the beach in the summer, and we watched the town grow into what it is today. Over that time I’ve come to know not just the market, but the lifestyle that makes this area so special. From quiet neighbourhoods and waterfront views to the small details that only locals truly understand, I bring that insight into every client conversation.
Before real estate
Before real estate, I built my career in various entrepreneurial ways – I taught English in Japan and ran a hiking/cycling tour company in the Japanese Alps for five years, opened an Aussie pie shop in Whistler, I worked with the non profit organization Junior Achievement to bring financial literacy programs into local schools, and had various sales roles and experiences that shaped how I work today. I’m a strong communicator, a careful listener, and someone who doesn’t stop until my clients feel fully supported and informed. Whether you’re buying your first home, downsizing, relocating, or preparing to sell, my goal is to make the process feel clear, calm, and handled.
What matters most to me is that you feel confident in your decisions—not rushed into them.
Life in Collingwood & beyond
Outside of real estate, I’m someone who values balance, adventure, and connection. I love spending time outdoors, whether it’s hiking local trails, practicing yoga, or simply enjoying everything this area has to offer through the seasons.
Travel has also played a big role in my life. I’ve explored over 20 countries, often on my own, and those experiences have shaped how I see the world and how I connect with people from all walks of life. It’s also part of why I’m so passionate about helping others find not just a house, but a place that truly fits their lifestyle.
This website is an extension of that – where I share local insight, real estate guidance, and pieces of life in Collingwood along the way.
