About Doug Linton

The way in which real estate transactions occur is undergoing a fundamental shift and my philosophy and systems reflect the reality of that shift…the business is about relationships, not transactions. I work very hard to develop strong relationships with everyone I work with and to maintain those relationships over the years.

I have a deep connection to the community and its citizens. Primarily due to the active lifestyle I lead, I tend to participate in groups that reflect this focus. I was a member of the Collingwood Parks, Recreation and Culture Advisory Group for many years and was a board member, and Chair-Person of the Collingwood Information Centre. More recently I am a founding Director of the Collingwood Dragon Boat and Canoe Club and continue to this day as the Paddle Camp Director.

I love to take clients on tours through the countryside to show them all that we have to offer. I truly believe that Collingwood and the Blue Mountains is the best place in Ontario to live!

Testimonials

  We cannot recommend Doug highly enough. In fact we have already referred him to others looking in the area. Doug took the time to understand our needs, to show us the appropriate properties, and to narrow them down based on our reaction, responses etc. He knows a great deal about the "systems" of homes and would provide us with the information we might otherwise not have. He was a fountain of information of information when it came to these aspects as well as the local community and areas etc. His follow up since the purchase has been very thorough. We are THRILLED with our purchase and can't wait to move in. We will keep in touch with Doug for other opportunities we may have as well as on a personal basis. — C. Lillico

  Making a fast decision in the current sellers market we're in when it comes to buying a new home is key, and Doug sure delivered on that. We weren't even looking to buy a house, but by chance found our dream home. Doug negotiated an accepted offer, even with a financing condition, giving us the time to sell our current home and put our minds at ease. The next day photos were taken of our home and it went on the market the same day. It sold firm, significantly over asking 2 days later, meaning we were able to purchase our forever home. The speed Doug worked at to get our current home sold, the advice we were given was amazing and we're so happy to move into our dream home! — A. Hamber

  Doug found us a house and guided me to a new career! Doug took care of everything for us. — Julia and Tim

About Martha Whitton

My real estate career began in 1987 selling new, pre-construction condos at Cranberry Village. I moved into residential re-sales in 1990 as a sales representative at Century 21 Offord Realty and then moved to Royal LePage® Locations North in 2011 where I became a Broker in 2016. I have been an active and avid member of the local community since the mid '80s. My interests primarily revolve around sports and recreation and most of my volunteer positions over the years have related to my family's involvement in figure skating, Nordic skiing, Biathlon, Snowboarding, paddling and cycling. Currently, I am a director on the Highlands Trailblazer Board - a Nordic ski and Biathlon club that runs out of Highlands Nordic in Duntroon.

My clients are the beneficiaries of the vast knowledge and expertise gained over decades of successful representation of buyers and sellers in both rural and urban environments. I am equally competent and enthusiastic about guiding clients through the ins and outs of condominium ownership, choosing a great residential neighbourhood or exploring ownership of a hobby farm on the Escarpment.

I specialize in Century homes, recreational and investment properties, waterfront, hobby farms, condominiums, vacant land.

Martha Whitton and Doug Linton formed the Linton Whitton Group in 2019.

Testimonials

  We have had the pleasure of working with Martha on five separate real estate transactions, and were very satisfied with all. On one particular transaction, we must have been one of her more "challenging" clients of all time due to multiple direction changes - but, Martha remained calm, professional and supportive to the very end. Martha delivers the full package of knowledge, experience and connections combined with the "soft side" of supporting clients through what can often be a roller coaster of emotions. We don't plan on moving again anytime soon, but if we do we would work with Martha again without hesitation. — Andrea and Kevin

  I am thankful I went with Martha Whitton of Royal LePage® Locations North, Brokerage in selling my condo. I had planned on selling the unit myself because I knew of investors that would have liked it. I paid for my own appraisal and would have sold the property at the price the appraisal came in at. I changed my mind and phoned Martha whom I had done a couple real estate deals in the past with. Martha came in with a strategy and evidently it worked; my place was sold in 6 days at 19% over asking, and 26% over what I would have taken for it if I sold it myself. There were 23 parties toured through the property in 6 days and 17 offers were placed on the table. It was very amusing. Thank you Martha. — M. Seeber

  Martha is calm and very knowledgeable about different types of properties. Martha sees all the angles. — Margaret and David

  Martha & Doug are active members in the Georgian Community and supported our family charity event. — Cayley and Ian
