My name is Gary Overbeek,

WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE!

“DIFFERENT BY DESIGN” is the philosophy that I bring to my business, and here’s why…

I was born and raised in Oxford County. As a life-long resident of the region, I understand the market and know the value of rural property – whether it’s a single-family home, hobby farm, commercial farming operation, or vacant land.

For me, real estate is not just about making a sale. It’s about finding people a property they love, and supporting them through the process of turning their dream into a reality. My work ethic was instilled from a young age. Growing up on the family greenhouse farm, The Floral Express, I helped out after school in the greenhouses, spent two years working at a hog farm, and took summer jobs in the construction industry.

As a teen, I sold fruits and vegetables at the farmers’ market, eventually handing over my stall to a younger brother so I could focus on building the family flower business. As Sales Manager and Director of Marketing for The Floral Express, it was my job to develop new markets. After visiting almost every flower shop in the Maritimes, I successfully built a strong market on Canada’s east coast, and The Floral Express is still proud to serve Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia as well as Ontario, Ohio and Michigan.

A few years ago, I decided to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a real estate agent. My brother took over the family greenhouse operation and I launched my new career. Today, I help people buy and sell residential, commercial, and agricultural properties throughout Oxford County, Brant County, Norfolk County and beyond.

With more than 17 years of experience in customer service, I love meeting new people and helping them find their dream property. I am committed to going above and beyond just making a sale, and work with a team of trusted professionals – lawyers, home inspectors, mortgage agents, accountants, builders and developers – to ensure that every purchase or sale runs smoothly from beginning to end.
 

I believe that success comes from working together, and that investing in the client makes the difference. When I am not keeping on top of the real estate market, I enjoy spending time with my wife and four energetic boys at our home in Harley. I look forward to earning your business!
