Jacob Waite
Broker
Real estate isn’t just a job for Jacob, it’s his passion. From as young as he can remember, he would spend hours looking through property listings online and be fascinated by the architecture, interior design, and landscaping of homes. “Mom, check out the backyard of this place!” was not an uncommon phrase to hear in the Waite household. Now that he is the one listing those homes he once admired and is able to work with such a variety of interesting people, he could not imagine doing anything else.
Real Estate runs in his blood as his mother and grandmother were successful realtors. Jacob spent the first 2 years in the industry working alongside Carol, his grandmother. She taught him everything she had learned from 33 years in the business and eventually handed over the reins to him before she passed away in December of 2021.
Jacob grew up working on the family farm and owes his tenacious work ethic to long hot summers in the fields picking stones and stacking hay bales.
He takes full advantage of living in beautiful Kawartha Lakes by enjoying the golf courses, lakes, and snowmobile trails!
