OUR TEAM

In 2003, two successful Ottawa realtors—Janny Mills and Jeff Rosebrugh—made the decision to join forces in an effort to strengthen and build their individual businesses. They felt that by combining their extensive real estate knowledge and experience, they could better serve their ever-growing database of clients.

In July of 2011, award-winning Ottawa Realtor® Shan Cappuccino brought his 20 years of experience in Ottawa real estate to the table, joining with Janny and Jeff to form the Janny, Jeff and Shan team. With more than 100 years of combined experience and deep knowledge of local real estate, the team continues to provide their clients with a powerful advantage in the Ottawa real estate market.

Today, the successful team consists of the three partners, as well as Licensed Assistant Christine Jurado, longtime Administrative Assistant Michelle Harris, and seasoned assistant Tom Mills.

We strive to make the experience of buying and selling real estate a positive and fun one! We are with you every step of the way and we look forward to putting “The Power of Three” to work for you!

Testimonial 

“We have found Janny Mills to be a Realtor® of unparalleled energy, trustworthiness and expertise.

“As first-time homebuyers, we relied on Janny’s advice and knowledge throughout the entire process. We never felt pressured by Janny – she genuinely wanted to find the best house for our needs. Her experience helped us to see past the flashy presentations of some properties to understand their underlying flaws, and her vision helped us catch the “diamond in the rough” that we eventually bought. Janny’s expertise was essential during the tough negotiations to buy our house–she protected our interests and made sure that the seller honoured all obligations. She also impressed us with her broad range of contacts, ranging from home inspection to insurance. Finally, her advice on what renovations to take on (and which to avoid) has increased the value and livability of our home.

“Every time we come home, we feel so lucky that we found a home with everything that we needed in a neighbourhood we like … and in our price range. We have already enthusiastically recommended her to our friends, and to any who would listen.”
— C.S. and S.S.

Testimonial 

“Our first experience working together was when I listed my Civic Hospital-area home for sale in 1991. At that time, the market was still suffering from the effects of high interest rates and decreased consumer confidence, yet your efforts as the listing sales representative attracted the right buyer in a short time with the right offer.

“In 2000, several years after my return to Ottawa, you represented my interests as a buyer for my current home. You understood the features I wanted in a home, the type of area in which I wanted to live, plus my budget and kept me posted of new listings as soon as they reached the market. In the case of this home, you contacted me immediately about the property on the first morning it went on the market. Had I not used you as my representative to buy this home, I most likely would have never known about it until after it was sold to someone else. Without your in-depth knowledge of the Ottawa real estate market and your industry contacts, I could have spent many months searching without success for a home. My message to home-buyers is, ‘Use the services of an experienced, professional Realtor® to find the right home’.

“My experiences working with you have always been very positive and very polished. I appreciate your patience, professional manner and trusted advice in ensuring my interests, as both a buyer and seller, are properly represented. I highly recommend your services to anyone searching for or selling a home in Ottawa.” — S.C.

Shan Cappuccino

 

Shan Cappuccino was born in Hong Kong and raised in an orphanage until he was 10 years old. At the age of 10, he was adopted into a multi-racial Canadian family of 21 children, where he soon learned to adapt and implement the best of each culture into his own character.

At an early age, he became fascinated with the business sphere and began working in the hospitality services sector. Eventually, he became involved in property management and subsequently became a licensed Realtor® in 1991.

Shan’s life experiences have enabled him to become a strongly-motivated and persistent sales representative. While many individuals find dealing with the various facets of a real estate transaction to be overwhelming and even immobilizing, Shan thrives on challenge! He employs his valuable, broad skill-set when assisting each and every client. Shan values learning, and it is for this reason that he regularly attends a variety of courses and seminars to improve and update the knowledge and skills that have enabled him to succeed in the real estate business for 34 years.

Testimonial 

“… Shan is the most hard-working real estate agent I have come to work with. I had been attempting to sell my downtown condo for a full year when I decided to contact Shan after noticing he had recently sold one of the neighbouring condo units in less than a week. It was the right decision. I found Shan to be very resourceful, personable and persistent. He gathered and set up the right furniture for staging, recommended a few minor, but high-payoff, renovations and represented my interests very effectively. Shan is an excellent communicator–both with his clients and other real estate agents. This served me very well as I was kept informed of prospective buyers’ feedback, and we were able to make adjustments to the condo along the way. My condo was not an easy piece of real estate to sell. I could not have chosen a better real estate agent than Shan, and I highly recommend him to all. Thanks to you and your team for all your hard work.” —G.C.

Christine Jurado

 

Born in Olso, Norway, Christine had also lived in Switzerland for a short time before her family relocated to Ottawa in 1973. Christine and Shan have successfully worked side by side for more than 15 years in the real estate business and in life; they are the proud parents of two girls. Christine has joined the team in the position of a Licensed Administrative Assistant, bringing with her the experience she has gained from working for many years in the IT sector.

Christine’s experience in the IT sector has seen her work as a freelance computer programmer, for Jetform and also for Adobe in Ireland.

Testimonial 

“Michelle and the support staff are excellent communicators, always easy to reach, and provide clear instructions at each stage of the purchase/sale process. Given that buying and selling houses is essentially a matter of completing a very long checklist, you want someone like Michelle guiding you along the way. — J.B.& E.K.
