Client Development/Sales Representative
Jason Craig
Jason’s mischievous sense of humour keeps everyone laughing, but don’t be fooled – getting things done always comes first. Active, sporty and persistent, he makes everyone feel like a sibling.
Experience & Background
As Director of Client Services since 2013, Jason has built his career on creating relationships with people he’ll never meet in person. “Unfortunately, I don’t get to meet most people I talk to in person,” he notes, “but I still enjoy building great relationships with our clients.”
Born and raised in Ottawa, Jason knows this city like the back of his hand. Over 30+ years, he’s lived all over the capital, giving him an intimate understanding of neighbourhoods, communities, and what makes each area unique. That local knowledge has proven invaluable to the thousands of clients he’s helped over the years.
Jason’s path to real estate was almost accidental. Fresh out of university with a banking background, he caught Paul’s attention and was brought onto the team. “I was searching for a career where I could interact with people and let my personality shine through,” he explains. Real estate turned out to be the perfect fit.
But don’t let his friendly demeanour fool you; Jason’s success comes from a relentless work ethic. His philosophy is simple but powerful: “If you say you’re going to do something… Do it.” His determination, discipline, and consistency have made him an essential part of the team’s client relations and a trusted liaison for past, present, and future clients.
Outside the Office
Family is everything to Jason. He’s been married for 8 years to his wife Sarah, who’s originally from London and transplanted to Ottawa. Together they have three daughters: Madeline, Sydney, and Summer, who keep them wonderfully busy.
When he’s not with his family, Jason channels his energy into athletics. You’ll find him on the mats at the local MMA/BJJ gym, on the rink playing ball hockey, or at the park with his kids.
His active, sporty nature and persistence show up in everything he does, from work to fitness to fatherhood.
Michelle and I would like to thank yourself and the whole Paul Rushforth team for helping us purchase our beautiful home. Secondly thank you for helping us sell our home in only 2 weeks Even though we didn’t need it the guaranteed purchase of our home by your team was a huge load off our shoulders during the process. This couldn’t have been an easier and stress free process. The moving truck was a very nice bonus little things that make a big difference. A top notch team and would recommend Paul Rushforth Real Estate in a heartbeat. Thanks again.

Thank you and everyone at Paul Rushforth for the new home wishes and the flower arrangement. I cannot express how pleased I was working with you and your team. By far your services were of the highest quality and I have with all honesty never experienced customer service to your level. Everything is working out very well with the place on Enfield and I am happy to be downtown again. So long as I am in the Capital region you have a customer for life and I look forward to your experience and assistance when I eventually go to sell my place.

JC and Daniella
Deciding to purchase our first home and navigate our way through the Ottawa real estate market was both an intimidating and exhausting experience. Hiring Brian as our real estate agent was the best decision we could have made. From day one he was attentive responsive and knowledgeable responding to our questions and concerns. We would highly recommend him to anyone beginning the search for their new home. He is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with.
Lindsay and Omar, Ottawa
