Rob Woods knows Wellington County as any homebody should. He was born and raised on his family farm in Alma, giving him the chance to watch as this community grow over the years, and has a great memory of where we’ve come from and a good sense of where this township is going. This is why a career in real estate came so naturally and seems so fitting to him when he started as a sales representative in 1988. You should always be hooked on something you love, and Rob loves this area, from the natural landscape and heritage buildings to the rural borders and the unique cultures of Elora and Fergus, and the collective communities of Alma, Arthur, Belwood, Guelph and into Wellington County. This is his home, and there is no better place to be than here.

Early in his career, Rob recognized that success in this field would require a real estate experience in more than just the traditional residential markets, after all, you may not always be looking for a home, but instead your new dream company space, or the relaxing vacation cottage. Rob has a great understanding for virtually everyone’s needs, which is why he is sure to represent everything from agriculture and commercial listings to cottage properties, leased buildings and residential homes through to condominiums.

As a family man and an active member of the community, Rob’s expertise is in knowing people and knowing this place. His philosophies in real estate are pretty simple: price it right, be honest and clear about what you’re representing and be realistic about what the market will bare. This might sound laid-back, but Rob has a reputation of being a people-person, and that keeps his clients coming back. After working with Rob once, you’ll feel like long lost friends that have reconnected.

If you asked Rob Woods to describe what makes him love his job so much, he wouldn’t say anything about his business success. For him, it is the people he’s helped along the way.
