Hello, my name is Justin Van Eck! I love my adopted dogs Sadie, Piper and Oliver, Kayaking, Snowboarding, Gardening, travel and anything that puts me in the sun! I was born and raised in London Ontario! At around the age of 18 I started living and working in the Rocky mountains, Vancouver, and the Cayman Islands. I returned to this beautiful city a number of years later and fell in love with real estate.
I’ve been a real estate agent since 2016, since then I have purchased income properties, flips, successfully run Air B&B investments, and met my real estate partner Candace to form the Investing In London Team. My pride is finding dream homes, helping people grow their portfolios and investing in the future. London is great for its downtown entertainment, patios, and so many festivals! I really enjoy the amount of activities it has to offer in each season, from snowboarding at Boler Mountain to kayaking at Fanshawe Conservation, and the fall festivals that we put on… we really know how to savor the 4 full seasons we are so lucky to live with.
Hello, my name is Candace Keeling! I am a volunteer firefighter, lover of cheese, sushi, soccer, hiking, music festivals and travelling!
I have been a realtor since 2013, but have been involved in real estate as an investor since January 2010 when I was in third year at Western University and purchased my first home and student rental property. After that purchase I never looked back, real estate became my passion, when you do what you love, you never work a day in your life!
In July 2015 I got into AirBnB and was the first realtor in London, Ontario to specialize in AirBnb rental properties. I like doing things in pairs; I am a dual-licensed realtor with the ability to operate in both Ontario and British Columbia. I am also fluent in both French and English!
Having lived in London my entire life I know all about it and its surrounding areas very well! I have been around for all of the market shifts. I moved to British Columbia a couple of years ago and purchasing another AirBnb property there. If you are thinking of relocating out of province I have lots of experience to help you out!
My name is Bridget Gatschene, I joined London Realty Team in 2021 but I have been involved in Real Estate for many years in various ways. I was born, raised and still live in South London where I purchased my first home in 2014, a 4-level detached backsplit in White Oaks that needed a lot of love. It was a great learning experience and allowed us to build some equity for our next home, a beautiful Byron home, which we decided to purchase and flip. After renovating and eventually selling it we were able to purchase our very first investment property in 2018, a 6-unit converted schoolhouse in SOHO, entering the exciting world of being landlords and property managers.
We quickly found out, it is not a passive income stream as many may lead you to believe. But it worked out! As tenants moved out, we were able to do some much needed renovations to the building and learn how to qualify and place the right tenants as well as the ins and outs of the RTA (Residential Tenancies Act). After doing substantial renovations, we refinanced and purchased a second investment property in 2020; a ten-unit just minutes away. We learned how valuable it was to have these properties close by for when issues inevitably arise.
When I'm not helping people reach their real estate goals I spend my time gaming and out with friends. I'm a big sucker for concerts, trying the newest restaurants, and travelling.
I hope to be part of the team that helps you with your real estate needs so that you can spend more time doing the things that YOU love too.
Bridget worked to understand my needs, and showed me a variety of properties to help me make the most informed decision possible. Her knowledge of the city was excellent, easing any uncertainty in the renting process. I would recommend Bridget to any military members being posted in to London!

Bridget was amazing to work with for buying my first home! The whole process seemed way more smooth than I thought it would because of how clearly and consistently she communicated with me. She was always available to help out with my questions and advocated for my best interests throughout the process. She also really knows London! I'm super happy with my new place and very grateful that I worked with her.

I highly recommend Bridget, when I moved from my former condo into my my new house I left her card with three of my neighbors who are also planning on selling. She is an amazing person and realtor. She handled my anxiety of buying and selling like a champ. Trust me that was a giant task in itself. I can't express how much I appreciated her help and encouragement when things felt overwhelming. She is truly the best and I thank her for putting me in my perfect home.

I recognized professionalism in Bridget Gatschene as soon as I met her. The big smile on her face and her warm and welcoming demeanor put me at easy.
I was very pleased to see her arrived before me, every time we scheduled a viewing. I am prompt and pancual myself, and it is something I highly value in others. That shows to me that she is professional and listens to her clients closely. ( I had mentioned that time is important to me as to anyone else.)
Her attention to details was what helped me to get my property within a short period of time. After only a couple of viewings I got my place. She knew exatly what I was looking for, and that helped us to narrow down the search.
On a personal level she is kindhearted, with excellent peoples skills.
Bridget connected me with great people in a proccess of obtaining my mortgage ( a broker and a lawyer) which also saved my time.
