About Candace

It would be my pleasure to help you sell your property or possibly find your dream home here in Lake county and the surrounding area. Over the years, I have listed and sold many properties all over Lake, Sumter and Marion Counties. My goal with each property is to have it sold within 120 days or less. I also enjoy working with buyers and helping them find that perfect property to fit their needs, and help them navigate the mortgage process alongside lenders. Along with my expertise, you also receive the service commitment and tools that the Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Florida Realty’s franchise has won numerous awards for over the years. I am very proud to be a part of over 40 offices here in Florida and over 1300 offices nationwide in the Berkshire Hathaway Home Services network. I am a Lake County Native, born and raised in Leesburg. I began my real estate career in 2003 after many years of both retail business and the cut foliage business. I have been with the same brokerage since I became licensed. I truly enjoy working with my long time colleagues. The team atmosphere is truly amazing. I am married to my husband, Joe. I have twin Daughters, Ashley and Lindsey, a step son Seth, Daughter in Law, Nicole, two granddaughters, Lorelai and Caroline, and two spoiled rotten Siberian huskies, Glacier and Willow, who are now my children since all of my children are grown and on their own. Please feel free to give me a call sometime if you are looking to sell your home or purchase a new home. My cell phone number is 352-408-6954. I look forward to hearing from you! Candace VanWaes

Simply the best!!!

Candace’s expertise from her many years of experience, along with her knowledge of the current market made selling our home as stress free as possible. She exceeded our expectations by taking care of details that came up that we were unable to handle as we now live out of state. We were always confident in placing our trust in her and she kept us informed throughout the process and even helped to handle a surprise title issue with professionalism and unfailing dependability. Thank you Candace!!

Best in the Business

My husband and I had an amazing experience as first time homebuyers. Candace goes above & beyond. She made sure we were prepared for every step along the way. We could not imagine this experience without her by our side.

Dedicated, Highly Effective Realtor

Ms. VanWaes was my realtor when I purchased our home in 2018 and when I sold it in 2025. We are so grateful for her dedicated, unrelenting and highly effective focus on our needs and in completing the sale with our personal requirements front and center. She quickly put together a compelling MLS entry, included the listing in unique marketing products, and prepared innovative signage and marketing materials, which she updated regularly. She provided exceptional insight into market trends and gave excellent recommendations which saved us money on the purchased and got us higher returns on the sale. She even watered our plants, picked up our mail, and flushed out toilets when qe were away for an extended period. But the bottom line is she guided our transactions to a successful and satisfactory conclusion with skill and professionalism, which is what really matters at the end of the day. We would definitely work with Ms. VanWaes agon, and we give her the highest possible recommendation!

Excellent Service

From the initial contact to the closing Candace was on top of every detail. When issues arose, Candace suggested viable solutions which were fair to both the seller and buyer. She communicated in a timely manner about the progress of the inspection, mortgage commitment, and the title company needs. Her experience with LadyBird deeds was invaluable. I highly recommend her.

Best of the Best

We first met Candace when she showed us a house she had listed. We were from out of town looking at houses after hurricane Irma. We instantly clicked with her, and she took us to see a few houses the first days. Well the first days turned into 5 years looking for a house, not the fault of hers, but our situation and then the economy and the real estate market being all out of whack. She stuck with us without fail, acting as our buyers agent for the whole time. She is VERY knowledgeable about the Central Florida area as she was born and grew up here. She was able to pull up information we ourselves could not find about the houses we were interested in. Some of that information saved us from making some bad decisions. If she didn't pull information from the computer the knowledge she has about the area helped us make good decisions. Finally, we saw a house that came on the market that fit almost all of our requirements. Candace was available immediately and was able to secure us a looksee for the very next day. Her quick response enabled us to be the first to put an offer on the house and we made the purchase. We can not say enough of how Nice, Respectful, Knowledgeable, Thoughtful, Attentive, and just overall what a great person and Realtor she is. We will be using her for all of our needs in the future, and have recommended her to some friends looking to buy already. We are very happy with our purchase and have Candace to thank for that.
