enny Blake is a woman who feels truly blessed. “I have a job I love and about which I am very passionate.”

Born and raised in Kingston, Penny chose to become a professional real estate agent 25 years ago because she loves to work with people and to help them achieve their dreams. Penny believes in communicating honestly and regularly with her clients and demonstrates her loyalty by listening to her clients’ wants, needs, questions and concerns and responding to them in a thorough and professional manner. Her commitment to and genuine interest in her clients can be seen in the relationships which develop and continue for years after the sale or purchase of a home is completed.

Penny enjoys being able to pass on the knowledge she has gleaned over the years to help her clients have as pleasant and stress-free an experience as possible. Penny’s many years in the industry have helped her develop an enviable understanding of the market and the community, while establishing a huge network of professional connections that stretches right across the country. As a member of RE/MAX, the largest international real estate company in the world, Penny is able to target a global market. Penny’s numerous clients within the Canadian military have especially benefitted from her combined knowledge of the local area and country-wide connections. Known as Kingston’s First Choice for

Penny’s commitment to providing the best in customer service, her positive attitude and her high level of business ethics were recognized when she received the RE/ MAX Lifetime Achievement Award. This award recognized Penny’s commitment to providing the best in customer service, her positive attitude and her high level of business ethics. Former clients speak highly of Penny, and much of her business is based on referrals. “I retained Penny as my realtor after having my home sit on the market for six months,” says Daryl Bell. “She was amazing. The day after signing the contract she had the For Sale sign on the lawn,  had a stager prepare the house and someone in to do professional photos. She followed up with two open houses and within two weeks the house was sold. I couldn’t be happier with her professional yet approachable style.” Among the numerous properties Penny currently has listed is the executive waterfront bungalow at 696 Highway 15. Overlooking the scenic Catarqui River,

this 4,000 sq. ft. luxury home has four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a doubleattached garage and a fully-finished walk-out basement. The owners enjoy a beautifully landscaped yard complete with a lovely deck, patio and greenhouse. Reasonably priced at $1.1 million, this house will not be on the market for long. Anyone interested in viewing the property should contact Penny today.  

“For two years, I had my house listed with two different agents, who hosted only one open house. I received not one offer, even though I reduced my price. Then, I listed with Penny in the off-selling season (December) and within one month, had my first offer! I believe this was due to her strong client base and the number of open houses that she hosted; even during winter storms. I have had many military moves and she has been by far the best agent I have worked with. Her dedication and initiative is second to none.” Dave Parker

“I initially listed with another agent and did not receive a single offer over the peak selling period. I couldn’t believe when I listed with Penny in December the amount of times she hosted an open house. Not rain, snow, sleet or hail stopped her! The benefit of Penny’s extensive client base contributed to the number of showings and a successful first offer within a short period of time. Her dedication and honesty are evident and she was always available for me.” Mary Jackson
