“If you think you can, or you think you can’t, you are most definitely right.”
Scarlet lives by the powerful quote: “If you think you can, or you think you can’t, you are most definitely right.” This mindset reflects her belief in the importance of attitude and self-confidence. In real estate, as in life, Scarlet knows that success often hinges on believing in one’s abilities.

Her Real Estate Journey
Scarlet’s journey to real estate is a testament to her drive for excellence. Originally from the Philippines, she holds an accounting degree and spent a decade working in a respected bank before immigrating to Canada with her son in 2013. Her husband had arrived in Canada years earlier in 2007, and together, they embarked on building a life in a new country. In Canada, Scarlet worked as a claims examiner with Canada Life, where her talent quickly saw her promoted to a specialist and team assistant. By 2021, however, Scarlet was ready to pursue a career she felt truly passionate about: real estate.
After years of admiring Canadian homes and understanding the significance of finding the right home, Scarlet finally took the plunge into real estate. In 2023, she officially launched her career as a realtor, driven by her fascination with homes and the desire to offer clients the guidance she felt was lacking when her family first bought their home in Canada.

Family First – Her “Why”

Real Estate Successes and Challenges
Scarlet’s journey in real estate has already yielded remarkable achievements. She became a top producer in her brokerage in January, July, and August of 2024, and has built a strong social media presence that continues to expand her network. Her commitment to honesty and transparency sets her apart; she’s known for tackling challenges head-on, such as assisting a client whose deal fell through by negotiating a better alternative.
