About Gretta
Hi, I'm Gretta.
I'm a Cambridge-based Realtor with a genuine appreciation for the community I call home. From our local boutiques and restaurants to the scenic trails, river views, and charming downtown cores, Cambridge offers a lifestyle that is both vibrant and welcoming, and I take pride in helping my clients find their place within it.
My Story
I Know What It Means to Find Home
I was born in El Salvador and moved to Canada at the age of 10. Cambridge has been home ever since. I am married to my best friend, and we have a son and a daughter who mean the world to us.
Before transitioning into real estate, I worked as an Early Childhood Educator and earned my Child and Youth Worker diploma. That experience continues to shape how I connect with people, allowing me to approach each client relationship with patience, understanding, and genuine care.
I provide a thoughtful and tailored approach to real estate, guiding clients through each step with clarity, confidence, and care. Whether you are purchasing your first home, making a move, or preparing to sell, I focus on delivering a seamless experience supported by strategic marketing, strong negotiation, and a deep understanding of the local market.
To me, real estate is about more than buying and selling. It is about building relationships, understanding your goals, and helping you make one of life's most important decisions with confidence. I am committed to offering a level of service that feels both professional and personal from start to finish.
What You Can Expect From Me
If You're Buying
You can expect honest guidance from day one. If a property is overpriced, I will tell you. I review accurate comparables, break down what is happening in that specific neighbourhood, and help you structure a strong, strategic offer that makes sense for you. My goal is for you to feel confident in your decision, not stressed or second guessing it later.
If You're Selling
Pricing and presentation are critical. I provide a clear and realistic evaluation of your home's value in today's market, along with a detailed plan to showcase it properly. From professional marketing to a focused negotiation strategy, every step is designed to protect your bottom line and maximize your results.
Either Way
You work directly with me. You have my personal number, and you can call or text anytime. I respond promptly and keep communication clear throughout the process. I genuinely care about my clients and their families. This is not just business to me, it is personal.

“Gretta is truly incredible, in every sense of the word! She's trustworthy, knowledgeable, professional, and strategic. She far exceeded our expectations with the sale of our home and our purchase, negotiating excellent deals on both ends.”

“As a single mom with two kids, buying a home felt overwhelming and honestly pretty intimidating, until I worked with Gretta Hughes. From day one, Gretta was patient, kind, and incredibly supportive. She truly understood my situation and made everything feel possible.”

“Gretta helped us find our first house in Waterloo. She is, indisputably, the best Realtor we have met. She took the time to understand our needs and showed us ONE house which we ended up signing. She is that good.”
