Accessible Houses - Modified Easy Access Homes

About Peggy Stewart...

Peggy is a realtor with Royal LePage Triland Realty in London Ontario. Her special interest is in accessible housing. By far, the majority of clients Peggy works with have special needs. Many are in wheelchairs, some are deafened...there are many reasons to modify a house.

(BA, R.E.T., E.P.T., SRES)

Starting in 1966, Peggy trained and worked in neurology departments in Canada and in England and for the last 10 years prior to retirement, she started, owned and operated a home health care business, specializing in providing neuro home care in London, Ontario. Many clients were coming out of Rehab Centres and returning to the community, and that was when Peggy started working with houses that required modifications, or houses that were purpose-built for the client.

After retirement, Peggy obtained her real estate liscence and started immediately to develop a special niche in accessible housing. This is the perfect way to use all of the training and experience obtained over 37 years, and bringing it together to find appropriate housing for clients with special needs. Many of her clients have brain and/or spinal cord injuries...so Peggy is still working with the same group of people that she has been for all of these years.

In March 2007, Peggy earned the SRES designation in Canada (Seniors Real Estate Specialist) so that she can better assist seniors with their housing needs.

Peggy has lived most of her life in Old South, London. She has owned the same home in Wortley Village since 1975. A very important member of the household is Oliver, a wonderful, happy cocker spaniel who is very old and blind. Oliver was adopted in 2003 from the Animal Aide Association and he is a gem!

About the Team...

Since earning her real estate license, Peggy has been working with people with special needs. Because this is a new niche market in London (and throughout Canada) it took a good two years and a lot of work, to collect and compile information and guidelines. At the same time, Peggy was working with different professionals in the area and now there is a main group of professionals who Peggy can call on.

Most of these people have made it their job to learn as much as possible about special needs housing, whether it is in remodeling and building or in obtaining special financing, and the list goes on. It is wonderful to have good, honest people that Peggy, and you, can rely on.
