Lindsay Wright*

Melanie Wright*

*Sales Representative

THE WRIGHT START – Having both worked in almost every aspect of the real estate business starting at a very young age, Lindsay & Melanie Wright not only have a keen insight but a unique perspective and understanding of what it means to buy or sell your home. Combining their resources in 1999 to create The Wright Sisters Team, their real estate experience and knowledge collectively spans over 30 years. In an industry where customer service is paramount, the Wright Sisters Team consists of full-time hand picked professional realtors committed to offering the highest level of service. The Wright Sisters Team is the number one real estate team in Toronto for Remax and has been since 2007. They continue to be recognized for their outstanding sales achievement.

Melanie and Lindsay Wright are also committed to giving back to the communities they serve. Since 1999 they have donated a portion of each sale to the “Children’s Miracle Network” which supports various organizations including Toronto Sicks Kids Hospital. They’ve raised money for the Toronto East General’s “Buy a brick, build a future” campaign and participate in the “Gifts of Hope” charity with Plan Canada by offering to give a gift that makes a difference (their clients participate in picking the Gift of Hope) . Then there is the cause that is closest to their hearts and one that is recognizable on every Wright Sisters For Sale Sign, the “Sold On A Cure” Program. “We are proud to be a part of the fight against breast cancer… a future without breast cancer”.

I remember when I first started in real estate I wanted to be everything to everyone. I love working with people and helping them buy and sell homes; I love to negotiate and build relationships. However, there are a myriad of things involved in the process and when I started on my own I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I was unable to focus on the parts of the business I loved and excelled in, because I had to do other jobs to ensure that the listing was taken care of. This led to dropping the ball in client care, but I know it could have led to other major areas. This was the single and most important reason I created a team starting with my partnership with my sister and our dad. I knew there must be a better system and we’ve never looked back. Our extremely satisfied clients thank us and continue to refer their family, friends and colleagues.
