In Shirley's Own Words:

Hi, I’m Shirley-but many people call me Shirl’s Your Girl or Shirls! I’ve built my business in Peterborough on a simple but powerful idea: real estate should feel personal, not transactional. I’m here to guide you through one of life’s biggest decisions with honesty, kindness, and expertise you can count on. Before real estate, I was a 911 Operator, an Educator and a Community Advocate. Those roles taught me how to stay calm in chaos, listen intently, and care deeply about the people I serve. Today, I bring that same energy into everything I do- whether you’re buying your first home, selling a family property, or downsizing into your next chapter. I don’t take shortcuts. I work hard, I show up early, and I treat your investment like it’s my own. I’ll tell you the truth, even when it’s not the easy answer, and I’ll steer you away from a bad deal if it’s not right for you, because your trust means more to me than any commission ever could. I’ve also had the privilege of serving as the Campaign Cabinet Chair for United Way Peterborough, a role that reflects my commitment to this incredible community. I’m a proud mom, devoted wife and someone who knows what it’s like to navigate real life- with all its highs, lows and unexpected turns. If you’re looking for someone who will go all in for you, protect your interests, and make the process feel a little less overwhelming and a lot more human, I’m your girl.

Absolutely top notch! Shirley provided excellent communication throughout the sales process. She brought in her team who purged, and sorted donated items to Habitat for Humanity amoung other charities. They thoroughly cleaned the house top to bottom, then staged the dwelling. The house sold over asking in a day. The process was smooth and extremely professional. Thank you for everything. - Dayna Frederick

Home Sale in Peterborough | Jul 2026

Shirl and her team were amazing! Her team packed, cleaned, and staged the house. It was totally transformed. The house had multiple offers and sold for over the asking price within two weeks. I highly recommend Shirly Turner. Five Stars for sure! - Dayna

Reply:    Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and support throughout this journey. Helping your parents transition into their retirement home was such an honour for our team. From sorting and packing to getting everything organized and preparing the home for market, we were committed to achieving the best possible outcome — and we were thrilled to see the house sell over asking price. Through what can often be a very emotional and chaotic time, you remained so kind, accommodating, and appreciative. That positivity made all the difference, and we are truly grateful to have worked with you and your family. Wishing your parents so much happiness in this next chapter!

Working with Shirley and her closeknit team was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Beyond her clear expertise of the market, what truly stood out was her genuine level of support. Shirley helped me with the purchase of my next home and the sale of my current multiunit property. She turned what could have been a difficult process into a positive experience. She was proactive, readily available, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure everything stayed on track. Shirley’s integrity and kindness made a world of difference. If you are looking for an agent who combines professional excellence with a truly human touch, I cannot recommend Shirley and her team highly enough. - Linda B

Home Purchase in Peterborough | Apr 2026

Shirley was awesome and stood out from other agents from the moment I reached out to her online. She replied immediately with a friendly email, asking me to describe in detail exactly what I'm looking for, and responding with a "Let me find that for you." Shirley has a ton of experience as a real estate agent and as a high-functioning member of the community. She is both a strong business person and a wonderfully friendly and caring individual. As a single home buyer I was reassured to know she was 100% on my side, had my best interests in mind; communicating important issues to me clearly, and honestly, and helping me make informed decisions. She also recommended various local contractors, and shared with me many of the recreational and cultural highlights of the area. I highly recommend Shirley to anyone buying or selling a home. - Ingrid

Reply:    Thanks for putting your confidence in me! I look forward to helping you transition to our wonderful community!

Working with Shirley Turner was nothing short of amazing. From the very beginning, she treated us like family—not just clients. She guided us through the sale of our home and the purchase of our new one with such care, patience, and professionalism. She went above and beyond in every way—helping us stage our home beautifully, keeping us updated regularly, and explaining processes we had no idea about. More than that, she was a true support system during what can be such a stressful time. She listened when I needed to vent, gave honest advice when I was unsure, and even stepped in like a trusted friend on moving day when we faced an unexpected personal emergency. I honestly don’t know how we would have managed without her. Thanks to her, we not only sold our home and found a new one we love, but we also had someone by our side who truly cared every step of the way. I would recommend Shirley Turner to anyone—she isn’t just a fantastic realtor, she’s the kind of person you want in your corner during one of life’s biggest transitions. - Brenda

Shirley is an absolute standout real estate agent. From our very first call, she was professional, honest and incredibly attentive. She took the time to understand exactly what we needed, educated us on the market, and guided us through every step with confidence. Her communication was impeccable - quick to respond, proactive with updates, and always one step ahead.

She genuinely cares - celebrating our wins, anticipated our concerns and made us feel supported the whole way through. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and the experience. We highly, highly recommend Shirley to anyone looking to buy or sell - she's the best in the business! - Vipesh

I can’t say enough amazing things about Shirley, our realtor. As a first time home buyer, I was anxious but Shirley guided us through every step of the process with patience, expertise, and so much heart. Shirley is incredibly trustworthy and was 100% focused on making sure this was the right home for us. And it is!! We are now living in our forever home. She didn’t just help us buy a house; she taught us what to look for, what to avoid, and how to feel confident in our decision. If you’re looking for a realtor who is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about your future…then Shirl’s Your Girl. - Sue

Townhome Sale in Chemong, Peterborough | May 2025

Shirley was absolutely the best agent we have worked with ever. She navigated us thru the process of selling our townhouse and was always available to talk and answer any and all the questions we threw her way. It did not matter how big or small, she was by our side day or night. Selling is a stressful time but Shirley made it so easy for us. She really impressed us with her knowledge and kindness. To her it was not how quickly she could make the sale but how happy we would be with the outcome.She was very customer focused.Thank you Shirley!! - Sarah Israel

Home in Ashburnham, Peterborough | Jan 2025

As an agent i assume Its always nice to see families gathering their downpayment and getting to buy their first home to celebrate all of lifes special moments in. Or helping a small business owner purchasing their first storefront for a growing local buisness. That's an agents dream I'm sure. Unfortunately, in this world, that isnt always the case. And certainly not in ours, we would probably be a realtors nightmare. This has been a long time coming because this isn't a simple review to be told. In fact, it isn't a review. It is a part of our life. It is a part of our story. It is an integral reason me and my kids are finally hopeful, and at the beginning of our new book. And this is why we're thankful for Shirley and Erin from Exit Realty. We first met Shirley back in 2017. She knew my best friend, my childrens aunt as a matter of fact. And she never at all had met us prior to March 2017. And something tragic happened in our home. So tragic we couldn't return. Within moments of us deciding that we would never go back, my friend had hired Shirley for us,. To summarize, i only had to enter back into my tragic home one last time for paperwork. Shirley took care of everything. Shirley and her team gathered and sold all the things I said I didn't want, Shirley had cleaners, Shirley sold my car, Shirley redecorated, Shirley staged, Shirley found me a new home, all within a month. My only job was to sign on the dotted line, and with Shirley, and just a couple friends, I closed my eyes and let them lead the way. And im still processing Shirley's response and selflessness for my family, who were basically strangers to her. But we were happy, happy to be free of that burden at least, and start again. And Shirley found us that happiness. 6 years later, unbelievably, tragedy hit us again. 2023, we lost our home to a fire. And although we had full intentions of living back there and making it ours when it was ready, we decided to start our lives anew. And the moment we decided, we knew who to call. So we called Shirley. And that's when we met the amazing Erin, who is Shirley's partner at Exit. And throughout the process of us selling the home that we lost, but then made into our dream home, but decided to move on from, there were no questions asked, there were no judgments. Our time of selling was in December, and it's slow and the market is in no way profitable. But we heard no complaints, saw no lack of effort, and had no less support in both selling and buying a new home. In fact, when we made the decision to sell prior to spring they just worked harder, I put more on their plate, without intent of course. There was nothing but open mindedness, help, support, and generosity. Generosity you'd be hard fit to see in most of your family and friends. As you can imagine we were muddled and feeling displaced and out of sorts but we felt passionate about our home and about our moves and about our life experience. They didn't once miss a beat when our stress took over. It's almost as if they were right beside us, guiding us towards where we wanted to go, not where they wanted us to go, but where we wanted to go. And they showed us exactly what we needed to do in order to get there. Which is so rare as stated above, and you certainly dont find that in in someone you hire. You primarily find someone looking to do what they want to do. Money is top priority realistically for almost everything. In the end, the saying of "they went above and beyond" does not in any way summize this team, and this company that backs them. More aptly described, this team is your lifeline in guiding you through what is known as one of the most stressful and chaotic portions of a person's life, buying and selling. If you choose to make a move, for whatever reason, you'd not find a better team behind you. My family is forever indebted, forever thankful, and they will always be the happy ending to our story that once was. Liz, CC, and Percy - Elizabeth J Rogers

Reply:    Wow! Thanks for coming into my life to show me what it means to be resilient. We have become family and I am honoured to have you all in my life. Much love!
