Jake Benjamins

Founder & Broker

In 1999, I sold my 35+ agent brokerage to a local corporate shop to start a much smaller, more responsive boutique brokerage. In 2001, that dream became a reality when I founded Benjamins Realty Inc.

Today, I am joined by my two sons and partners, Mark and John Benjamins and our associate realtors, Mel and Angela. Together, we combine experience, technical savvy, and intimate knowledge of the local market. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more dynamic skill set and we’re prepared to back it up.


Meet The Team

Mark Benjamins

Partner & Broker

After purchasing my first investment property in downtown Kitchener at the age of 19, I quickly realized I had a property and a career. Now as a broker, investor and partner, I enjoy putting that extensive experience to work in the residential, development, and multi-family real estate markets.

John Benjamins

Partner & Marketing

In 2013, I sold my contracting business in Langley, BC and decided to move back to my hometown in Kitchener with my wife Sarah and begin actively selling real estate while also handling the marketing operations for our brokerage. I enjoy crafting custom marketing presentations for each of our listings while working closely with our clients in the buying and selling of property.

Mel Van Rootselar

Sales Representative & Brokerage Associate

Growing up as part of a multigenerational retail business, customer service has always been a top priority. The importance of meeting the needs, desires and expectations of clients remains my passion. In owning and renovating my own homes, I have enjoyed looking at the big picture of projects and look forward to helping you meet your goals!

Angela Freiburger

Sales Representative & Brokerage Associate

I have been passionate about homes since I was a young child. Over the years, my mom and I attended countless open houses. As I went through the homes, I always tried to talk my parents into moving (I’m a natural realtor). I will never forget the excitement of imagining new possibilities. I aim to help people find joy in a new home by listening carefully to their needs and desires. My approach is customer-centred and discovering what it is for you that makes a house a home.

  • 'professional and conscientious'

    Jake Benjamins recently marketed and sold our two properties. He is very professional and conscientious. We were very happy to engage Benjamins Realty as our representatives and have worked with them in several other transactions over the past few years. Jake, John and Mark are a great team. We highly recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future.
