The Approach

How I Work

Most advisors give you information. I give you clarity. The difference is what changes everything.

01
See the Full Picture

Before strategy, there is understanding. I see your complete situation, financial, emotional, strategic, before any recommendation is made.

02
Identify the Real Decision

Every property transaction is a life decision. I help you understand what you are truly deciding, and ensure the move aligns with where you are going.

03
Move with Precision

With clarity established, we execute with intelligence. Negotiation, positioning, timing, handled with the strategic precision this level requires.

Who This Is For

I.
Buyers & Sellers

You are making one of the most significant decisions of your life. You do not want data dumps. You want someone who sees through complexity and guides you to the right move, with calm, intelligence, and precision.

II.
Investors

You understand the market. What you want is a strategic partner who understands both the numbers and the psychology, someone who positions you ahead of the market, not behind it.

Luxury architecture
"Every decision is influenced by an internal story.
The key is learning to recognize the energy behind it."
Signature Framework

Vision. Growth.
Mastery.

Vision

Seeing what others miss. Reading the market, the moment, and the person across the table, simultaneously.

Growth

Every transaction is an evolution. Every conversation moves something forward. We do not stand still.

Mastery

Not expertise for its own sake. Mastery that serves the client, precise, calm, and completely present.

Begin Here

The right move begins
with the right conversation.

Not a pitch. Not a presentation. A genuine conversation about where you are and where you want to go.

Residential & Commercial Real Estate Broker
Certified Leadership Coach · Founder, The Collective by Mellor Group

Shanna Giannakis is a residential and commercial real estate broker, certified leadership coach and founder of The Collective by Mellor Group.

Her approach combines strategic thinking, honest advice and a deep understanding of the human decisions behind every move. Whether navigating a complex investment, negotiating a sale or helping a family begin a new chapter, she creates space for meaningful conversations while bringing clarity and direction to the process. She believes clients deserve to feel heard, understand their options and trust the guidance they receive.

That same conviction led her to establish The Collective by Mellor Group, where brokers develop into thoughtful advisors through practical mentorship, collaboration and certified leadership coaching. Her vision brings together strong business skills and personal growth, helping brokers build the judgment, confidence and accountability to serve their clients well.

The partnership with Mellor Group was a natural fit, grounded in shared values and a common belief in the power of collaboration. Together, they are building an environment where brokers receive meaningful support, learn from one another and grow with purpose. For Shanna, that alignment is the foundation of a partnership that makes sense both professionally and personally.

An iPEC Certified Professional Coach and Energy Leadership™ Index Master Practitioner, as well as a member of the International Coaching Federation, Shanna brings her coaching training into both her client relationships and her work with brokers. She listens closely, asks thoughtful questions and helps people move forward with greater awareness and confidence.

For her, thoughtful service is more than a business approach. It is the standard she holds herself to and the foundation of The Collective by Mellor Group.

The Collective by Mellor Group

The Collective by Mellor Group is a team built on leadership before sales. Every advisor shares the same commitment to thoughtful guidance, exceptional client care, and continuous growth. Together, we combine individual expertise with a collaborative approach so every client benefits from the strength of the entire team while working with a dedicated advisor.

Bianca Tomassini, Associate Advisor

Bianca Tomassini

Residential Real Estate Broker · Associate Advisor

For Bianca, real estate has never been just about transactions. It’s about people.

As a young mother with a strong sense of family and community, Bianca brings kindness, loyalty, integrity and an exceptional work ethic to everything she does. When someone places their trust in her, she shows up fully, listens carefully and follows through.

Read full biography of Bianca TomassiniClose biography of Bianca Tomassini

Before entering real estate, Bianca worked in hospitality, where she learned that people remember how you make them feel. Anticipating needs, noticing the details and going beyond expectations continue to shape her approach today.

Warm and intuitive, Bianca puts people at ease from the very beginning. She treats every client with the same care she would offer a member of her own family, understanding that buying or selling a home is rarely just about the property.

Her dedication is quiet but unmistakable. She asks thoughtful questions, notices what others may overlook and remains steady when challenges arise.

That belief in connection extends beyond real estate. As Founder of The Village, a community that brings women and mothers together, Bianca is helping create a space for genuine relationships, honest conversation and meaningful support.

@thevillagecirclemtl

Real estate may be the profession Bianca chose, but caring for people is simply who she is.

And once you meet her, you understand the difference.

Residential Real Estate Broker · Associate Advisor

A residential real estate broker with Royal LePage and a member of The Collective by Mellor Group, she serves Montreal and the surrounding areas with warmth, care and dedication.

Read full biography of Erika Paredes SantiagoClose biography of Erika Paredes Santiago

Before beginning her real estate career in 2024, she worked in aesthetics and reception, where attentive service and personal connection were central to her work. Those experiences shaped her ability to listen, understand individual needs and make people feel welcome and cared for. Her passion for real estate grew from that same desire to serve people in a meaningful, human way.

Her approach reflects The Collective by Mellor Group’s belief that thoughtful advice begins with listening. She takes the time to understand each client’s priorities, communicates clearly and follows through with care. For her, real estate is about people, the decisions they face and the new chapters they are preparing to begin.

As a mother, she appreciates how a home must support everyday life and a family’s evolving needs. She brings that perspective to her work, helping clients consider their lifestyle, priorities and vision for the future.

Fluent in French and Spanish, and comfortable communicating in English, she connects with clients from diverse backgrounds.

Her commitment is simple: listen carefully, work diligently and help every client move forward feeling informed, supported and confident.

Read full biography of Tigest Mekuria HabteyesClose biography of Tigest Mekuria Habteyes

With a degree in Business Management and Marketing and a certification in home insurance, she brings a foundation that combines business insight with an understanding of the homeownership journey. She helps clients look beyond a property’s first impression to consider how it fits their needs, priorities and future plans.

What draws her to real estate is the opportunity to build genuine relationships and play a meaningful role in a new chapter of someone’s life. Aligned with The Collective by Mellor Group’s belief that strong advisors begin as attentive listeners, she takes the time to understand what matters to each client and offers clear communication, personalized guidance and consistent support.

Outside of real estate, her interests in beauty, fashion, travel and discovering new restaurants reflect her curiosity and appreciation for the places and experiences that make life richer.

She brings that same curiosity to helping clients find a home they feel connected to and proud to call their own.

The Philosophy

From Reaction
to Positioning

Every decision in real estate is influenced by an internal story. Fear of missing out. Fear of buying at the wrong moment. Fear of letting go too soon.

These are not signs of weakness. They are signs of significance. The investment matters. The decision carries weight. And that weight deserves intelligent support.

My work is to help you move from reactive decision-making to intentional positioning. When you regulate your energy, you stop reacting to market conditions, you begin positioning yourself strategically within them.

That shift changes everything.

Begin a Conversation
Shanna Giannakis leading a professional presentation
Let's Begin

A conversation costs nothing.
Hesitation might.

Whether you are navigating a property decision or building your career as a broker, clarity begins with one conversation.

Real Estate Advisor

Strategy-led.
Intelligence-driven.

For Buyers
Acquisition Strategy

You will not be shown every listing on the market. You will be shown the right ones, positioned against your goals, your timeline, and intelligence that only comes from deep market knowledge.

  • Off-market access
  • Comparative market analysis
  • Negotiation representation
  • Transition guidance
For Sellers
Positioning & Exit

How you present, price, and position a property is as strategic as any investment decision. We ensure your property commands the right price, because the right buyer is paying for perceived value.

  • Strategic property positioning
  • Premium marketing direction
  • Offer evaluation & negotiation
  • Timeline & transition management
For Investors
Capital Intelligence

Markets reward those who see a moment before it becomes obvious. I work with investors who want to position ahead of the trend, with discipline, clarity, and long-term strategic thinking.

  • Market cycle analysis
  • Commercial & residential
  • Quebec & Canadian market
  • Portfolio & growth strategy
Private Listings

The Difference

This is not
a transaction.
It is a decision.

Real estate, to me, has never been transactional. It has always been rooted in trust, relationship, and responsibility to the people I serve.

The Canadian and Quebec market demands precision. I bring deep local intelligence and coaching expertise that elevates advisor services well beyond the ordinary.

Let's talk about
your next move.

Not a market update. A conversation about your specific situation, and what the right move looks like for you.

Decision Coaching

The property
is not the
real decision.

Most people think they are deciding between two properties, two neighborhoods, or two price points. They are not. They are deciding about identity, security, growth, and what the next chapter of their life looks like.

My coaching work helps clients navigate those real decisions, with clarity, without regret.

The Process

How the Coaching Works

Step 01
The Clarity Session

We begin with what is actually happening. Not the property. The situation, financial, emotional, and directional.

Step 02
Mapping the Real Decision

Every hesitation has a source. We identify it, name it, and understand what it tells us about what you actually need.

Step 03
Building the Framework

A decision framework tailored to your situation. You will know what to look for, what to avoid, and how to move forward.

Step 04
Moving with Confidence

You make the decision. But you make it knowing you see it clearly, not through the distortion of fear or market noise.

"When you regulate your energy, you stop reacting.

Who This Serves

You are not lost.
You are at a crossroads.

This coaching is for people who are intentional and standing at a real estate decision that feels heavier than just a property.

Life Transitions

Divorce, relocation, retirement, inheritance. When property decisions carry life weight, clarity is not optional, it is essential.

First Investment

Entering the market for the first time with real capital. Making sure the decision matches the intention, not the anxiety.

Stuck Decisions

You have been thinking about this move for a long time. We find out why it has not happened, and whether it should.

Your Move

The right decision is
always the clear one.

One conversation is often enough to shift everything. Let's begin there.
