Has The Toronto Bubble Finally, Popped?
Jessica Spillas
From the moment that urban enthusiast Jessica Elizabeth Spillas first learned about Fox Marin’s passionate approach to buying, selling and investing in Toronto Real Estate, she was hooked. As the Team’s dedicated Home Buyer Specialist, Jessica has developed a broad base of experience, encompassing a wide range of property types and neighbourhoods both in and outside of the downtown core.
Known for her unparalleled professionalism, integrity and customer service, Jessica is an over-achiever with a keen ability to listen and genuinely understand client needs. Dedicating herself fully to the cause, Jessica will over-communicate with her clients and take the time to develop a strategic plan that will allow her clients to achieve their goals while benefiting over the long term.
At her core, trust, education and client satisfaction are Jessica’s utmost priority when working with buyers and sellers alike. Honest at all times, Jessica believes that being an objective third party to help clients rise above a challenging market is the best approach to deliver expert consultation and exceptional results.
Never afraid to admit if she does not have the answer to something, Jessica will seek out information while using her resourcefulness to empower her clients with the most accurate and comprehensive data so they can make an informed decision.
Initially starting her Real Estate career as the firm’s multi-talented Business Development Manager – working behind the scenes on the entire Team’s negotiations, marketing initiatives and data analysis, it is through this wealth of first-hand experience that now allows Jessica to help her own clients navigate through the nuances of Toronto’s real estate market with confidence and context.
Get to know Jessica better, and you’ll learn that her passionate, “go-getter” attitude doesn’t apply just to her work. Indeed, it shines through everything she does: from her studies in Journalism and Communications or her tenure with a leading Architectural and Development firm located in Toronto’s downtown core, and back down to the travel bug that has led her to explore some of the most vibrant & diverse cities in the world.
When she is not building listing presentations, developing pricing analysis’, or keeping clients updated on the latest industry trends, you can find Jessica in the kitchen – creating her own recipes and mastering Pinterest finds; or, exploring the City of Toronto that she calls home with her partner David and their furbaby Bowman – a Shiba Inu rescue pup who they love more than anything.
I could not dream of a better agent than Jessica at Fox Marin! I used Jess to purchase my first home after she came highly recommended by two of my friends. Jess was extremely reliable, patient and knowledgeable.
Purchasing my first home was daunting, and Jess was incredible as she guided me through the process and shared her wealth of knowledge on downtown real estate. She pointed out so many details and considerations in our tours that would not have crossed my mind without her and was so patient when my criteria shifted multiple times. I ended up buying my dream condo with Jess, and she would not have settled for anything less. Thank you, Jess and Fox Marin!

My partner and I were first-time home buyers looking for a condo in downtown Toronto to call our future home when we heard of Jessica at Fox Marin Associates from friends who had an incredible experience working with her.
Immediately after our first meeting, I felt supported, heard and informed, which was very important for us as we were new to the whole process and the market. Our entire experience, from the beginning stages of getting ready to look for a property to the showings process leading to finding our dream condo, and finally through the closing period, Jessica was right there every step of the way, guiding us with her expert advice and keen eye for the details, which was invaluable. We loved working with Jessica and can’t recommend her enough. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our next purchase!

After interviewing several agents, I chose to work with Jessica Spillas of Fox Marin Real Estate - and it was the best decision I could have made.
I recently sold my family home in east end Toronto after living there for 46 years and purchased a downtown condo. Since this was my first time buying or selling a property in nearly half a century, I knew I needed the guidance of a skilled and trustworthy real estate professional. After interviewing several agents, I chose to work with Jessica Spillas of Fox Marin Real Estate—and it was the best decision I could have made.
From start to finish, Jessica provided outstanding, professional service. She guided me every step of the way and made what could have been an overwhelming process feel seamless and even enjoyable. Her attention to detail was exceptional. She gave me practical advice on how to prepare my house for sale, ensuring that any upgrades or minor renovations enhanced the value of my home without unnecessary expenses.
Jessica also took care of project management—coordinating painters, electricians, landscapers, movers, and even arranging short-term storage while the house was staged. Thanks to her expertise, the house looked amazing, was beautifully staged and photographed, and ultimately sold within a week for more than I had anticipated.
On the buying side, Jessica was just as impressive. She listened carefully to my needs and preferences, and after visiting a number of properties with me, she helped me secure the perfect condo in the perfect neighbourhood. She has an innate sense of what works for her clients, and her negotiation skills ensured I got the right place at the right price.
Working with Jessica and the Fox Marin team was truly a pleasure. Jessica is a consummate professional who always had my best interests at heart. I would wholeheartedly recommend her and the Fox Marin team to anyone buying or selling property—you will be in excellent hands.

Jessica provided exceptional service with sound industry knowledge and expertise which my family greatly benefited and appreciated. Her passion for her work was evident and her enthusiasm was contagious! She made the whole seeking & buying experience a joy to work with, truly top notch all the way! Thank you Jessica ~ you’re simply the BEST!!!

My wife and I worked with Jess (Jessica Spillas) and couldn't be happier! She was recommended to us from friends who had a great experience working with her in the past.
As first time home buyers Jess helped set us up for success and purchase a home that we love. Jess is friendly and easy to get along with while also being very professional, detail oriented, structured, and always putting our interests first.
She taught us about the real estate market, helped us dial in what mattered the most to us for a home, and expertly handled negotiations during the offer process.
We’re so grateful to have worked with Jess and look forward to doing so in the future!

Jess has been a dream to work with. Throughout the entire process (selling and then buying), we were educated in ways you couldn’t just learn through googling but only through the experience a great realtor would have. Whenever we needed a response or feedback, Jess responded in robotic speed and made herself so available that we’re still questioning how she does it.
But best of all, Jess was so kind and thoughtful and became a great friend and ally we could confide in throughout all the sequence of events that comes with buying and selling a home. My husband and I were hesitant to move from the suburbs to Toronto but somehow Jess navigated us through a difficult time in the market, and sold our home much higher than we could sell now and gave us great advice as to when to act on an offer. And if that wasn’t great enough, we had such specific and particular “wants” in a home, and Jess pulled off the impossible by coldcalling previous sellers in the past few years, who have listed lofts that matched our needs but delisted due to different reasons. One of those calls actually stuck and we’re now in the loft of our dreams with such a steal on price! Thank you Jess SO much, and best of all we made such a great friendship. Couldn’t recommend Jessica enough!!
