Sutton Group Quantum Realty
Mississauga, ON

Tina Gardin started building her Sutton Group franchise from the ground up 25 years ago. Since then, she has become one of the GTA’s most respected brokers, known for her supportive, hands-on approach to training agents and her deep involvement in organized real estate.

To support the hard-working moms at Sutton Group Quantum, Gardin launched a high-quality, flexible daycare option – something she wishes she’d had as a young mother starting her own brokerage. “I relied on my mom and a nanny in my early years as a broker,” she says. “It’s important to keep looking for support systems like this.”

Gardin urges female agents to follow her footsteps and get involved in industry organizations. “Women are very well represented in organized real estate,” she says. “That’s where I was mentored by many women and men in my career. It will educate you and help you to effect change.”
