Testimonials

Good morning Jake, I just wanted to drop a line and thank you for the handling of the listing, and the sale of my cabin on Lake of The Woods.  I was very impressed with your expertise and quality of your service.  If I ever need the service of a realtor again I will only have to make one call.  Thank you -

Northwoods Realty Ltd. listed and sold our lake cabin as this past summer season was ending. Their professional website and excellent advice are two key traits that made this realty company the best choice we could have asked for. Their reputation in the Nestor Falls-Sioux Narrows area is excellent and we would recommend Bruce and Jake to anyone that either selling or buying a property in Lake of the Woods.

In spite of the 2020 and 2021 Corona Virus epidemic and the closing of the Canada - United States border, Bruce and Jake Bennett performed their realty responsibilities in a masterful fashion. They and their legal and accounting associates overcame these difficulties for the sale of our property at Sioux Narrows, Ontario. Bruce and Jake are to be highly commended for their extra efforts and their leadership. Therefore, we are pleased to recommend Northwoods Realty, Bruce, and Jake Bennett to those who are interested in purchasing or selling properties in the Northwestern Ontario region. They were always ready, willing, and able to assist in all instances.

Bruce, Kathy and I want to thank you for your assistance in listing and selling our cottage in Sioux Narrows. We were a little apprehensive in the process due to living 900 miles away, but could not be happier with the service and attention to detail that you and Jake provided. We were impressed with the marketing of the home including the high-quality photos and video. We also appreciated the timely communication while negotiating the sale. Selling the family cottage was an emotional event for us and we appreciated the ease with which transaction was conducted. If ever we look to purchase again at Lake of the Woods our first call will be to you! Thanks Again.

My wife and I started looking for a cottage in the lake of the woods, Sioux Narrows area about 3 summers ago. We had camped in the area for over 20yrs and figured we had arrived at the point in our lives where we could step up into a cottage. We knew we wanted one but not really sure of where to even start. We walked into Northwoods Realty office in Sioux Narrows very unacquainted with the whole cottage idea and not having very much understanding of the ins and outs of even owning one. Right from the get-go, Bruce from Northwoods was very accommodating and patient with our inquiries about becoming cottage owners and helped us tremendously becoming familiar with how the water, septic systems differ from place to place and how we should compare the cottages from one to another. The process took us over 3 summers to find what we were looking for and each summer Bruce kept us up to date on what had become available and what fit our requirements for our dream cottage. The entire time Bruce was very accommodating to our schedule, always willing to help us understand the vast amount of information required with such a grand purchase and due to this tremendous assistance from Bruce, however, it helped make the process seem almost flawless. Thank you very much Bruce for your patience, time and help looking for our cottage in “God’s country”.

After spending my summers for over seventy years on a beautiful Canadian lake, I was forced to sell my property due to my advanced age and the health of my wife. Although the sale was an emotional roller coaster for us Jake and Bruce Bennett were so patient, kind, caring, and competent that my wife and I were able to complete the transaction with the least amount of emotional stress possible. I would recommend their company, Northwoods Realty, to anyone seeking to buy or sell property in the Sioux Narrows area. I found the agency to be very professional, extremely competent, and a real pleasure to do business with under the circumstances. - Randle and Virginia Dennison, Chesterfield, MO

Its no secret Jake and Bruce know Lake of the Woods the best out of any realtor in the area. Jake was able to sell our property with his deep knowledge of off-grid properties. Jake ferried the prospective buyers back and forth from the island for viewings.
