They worked tirelessly to sell my house

“They worked tirelessly to sell my house and were equally helpful and dedicated in the search for a new home. They have a breadth of knowledge of the market. It was an exciting and stressful time made much easier.”

- Emily F.

Social Media for Rural Properties

Marketing a rural home requires a thoughtful, strategic approach. Unlike urban properties—where the focus is primarily on the home itself, rural listings offer a diverse range of standout features that deserve to be showcased with intention. From barns and pastures to outbuildings, ponds, lakes, and winding rivers, every element contributes to the story of your property. To capture these details with precision and artistry, we proudly partner exclusively with a top-tier videographer and photographer who specializes in showcasing rural lifestyles to tell the story that shapes your property best.

Social media has become a leading driver of listing exposure, brand visibility, and community engagement. Our in-house marketing team ensures your property is presented from every perspective…through cinematic reels, curated photography, lifestyle-focused highlights, and immersive virtual tours. At Capstone, we believe that a strong social presence amplifies your listing’s reach and generates interest through channels beyond traditional real estate marketing, connecting your rural home with a broader and more engaged audience.

Our Competence Is Your Compass 

You can feel confident knowing you’re supported by the team with the deepest knowledge of country properties, landscapes, and communities across Guelph and Wellington County.

We’ll help you navigate the distinctive aspects of rural real estate, including:

  • Water systems: Evaluating wells, water pressure, septic systems, and ensuring water quality through proper testing.

  • Heating systems: Identifying whether a home operates on oil, electric, or geothermal heating.

  • Property zoning: Understanding current and future development projects that may influence your land or lifestyle.

  • Community character: Gaining insight into the unique culture of rural neighbourhoods, so you can select the community that truly suits your family.

  • Schools & amenities: Assessing school zones, transportation routes, and access to essentials such as grocery stores, pharmacies, and hospitals.

Our unparalleled regional expertise is exactly why we have sold 175 rural properties. Buyers gain foresight into future developments that could shape their enjoyment of a property, while sellers are equipped to anticipate external factors that may influence value. We’ll craft a strategy to ensure your property continues to captivate the right audience. With an exclusive email database of over 10,000 engaged contacts, we market directly to qualified buyers to deliver the best results for you.

Leading with empathy

We understand the emotion attached to your homestead. You’ve invested in it over the years, spent decades there, and raised a family there. As locals and rural real estate experts, we’ll help you transition comfortably, and with care.

Our agents also know that moving to the countryside comes with a different set of concerns for buyers than living urban. We understand this process can’t be rushed, and instead work at your pace so that you feel confident throughout each step.
