Craig attended Concordia and York University, where he studied mass communications, film and sociology. He began his career in television, working in promotional marketing for specialty networks HGTV, Food, Life (now Slice), History & Showcase among others. Craig then took this experience to enter the exciting and extremely challenging world of event marketing. It is here where he honed his client relationship, project management and communication skills. Running campaigns for brands like Telus, SiriusXM, 20th Century Fox, Bacardi and Proctor & Gamble on a national level taught Craig all that was necessary to execute at the highest level. Building trusting, meaningful and lasting relationships with company executives, representatives and all members of his team is how Craig achieved such great success early in his career. In 2010 Craig decided to pursue his passion for real estate and obtained his licence. His extensive marketing and design experience made for a smooth transition, not only in real estate, but in the construction industry as well. Craig has worked with some of the GTAs top builders, designers and general contractors on custom homes and extensive renovations for homeowners over the years. A close working relationship with one of his former marketing clients afforded Craig the opportunity to learn a great deal about fireplace installations and custom finishes. It eventually led to a part-time role in design, sales and project management. Craig has since returned to real estate on a full-time basis. This is where his true interests lie. Helping people and the team with the purchase, sale or lease of a property. Putting his background and experience in real estate, marketing and construction to good use for the benefit of clients. Outside of real estate, you’ll find Craig spending quality time with his family and dog (Roxy) by the water in Ontario’s cottage country or out on the East Coast in the Halifax area and Cape Breton.

Alex and her team are hands down the best group to work with if you are in the market to purchase or sell your home. We have worked with Alex many times and are always impressed by the team’s professionalism, dedication and patience. There was a lot of time and effort put into the hunt to find our dream home. The whole team wanted to ensure that it was a perfect fit for us. They encouraged us to see as many homes as possible to be sure that we were confident when making our final decision. Alex is a woman of integrity and you can always be assured that she has your best interest in mind. She is a strong negotiator, well respected and is highly knowledgeable in the real estate market. If you are looking for a solid agent and team, I strongly recommend Alex Irish and Associates, you will not be disappointed.

Jackie was an absolute pleasure to work with – she understood our needs and found us an incredible home at the most amazing price. She was extremely communicative throughout the entire buying process and worked over an entire weekend to get my husband and I the home of our dreams! Thank you, Jackie!

I would give Alex and her team 7 stars if I could. When buying: Alex was responsive, advocated for us, provided wise counsel and never pressured us. When selling: Alex’s team was professional and made the selling experience approachable. Alex and her team coordinated a smooth sale in a short time so we could move on and enjoy our new home. Working with them was an outstanding experience – I give them my highest recommendation!

We had the pleasure of having Matthew Regan as our realtor, and let me tell you he did not disappoint. He was wonderful and very insightful, and he helped us decide what was the best house for us and gave great suggestions on what to look for in a house and what not. I’d recommend him in a heartbeat. I am so grateful he was recommended to us.

Alex and her team were incredible. Alex was efficient in conveying their abilities when they pitched us. Alex was incredibly transparent about the process throughout. The pricing discussion was frank. The advice given was sound. She brought on a world-class photographer and videographer that set our property apart. Alex and her team did a great job bringing attention to our property and it ended up in a deal being consummated at a great price. Clean, simple, transparent and done with care and attention. Perfect.

Emily Benson recently helped me sell my house, and I absolutely recommend working with her. Throughout the entire process, she was extremely patient, transparent, and supportive. She was tireless, always open to hearing my questions and addressing them thoroughly. Her knowledge and professionalism are outstanding, as are her negotiation skills. Communication was prompt and easy. It has been a pleasure to work with Emily, and I would not hesitate to work with her again for my next real estate purchase or sale.

We could not have been more pleased with Alex Irish and her team. We appreciated her candour, the depth of her research and understanding of the local market, and the hard work of her team in marketing our home. Their communication with us was always timely and professional, and together they made the high stress experience of buying and selling a home almost pleasurable.

Alex was incredible in helping me with my first home purchase. She was readily available to show me properties of interest and offered her expert advice and asked me great questions. She handled the negotiations amazingly and aggressively. I couldn’t ask for a better experience with her help with the deposit, lawyers, and mortgage team. As a new home buyer, I was unaware of many processes, and she took a lot of time to explain everything very clearly to me. I would highly recommend Alex and the Regan Team to those looking to buy and sell!

Judy M

They were 100% professional, educated us on the changing market, and assisted with everything including new home options. When it was time to negotiate, Alex’s insights were invaluable and it was apparent the team had a lot of experience. We have no hesitation in recommending Alex Irish & Associates.
