If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a multimillion-dollar home on the shores of Lake Simcoe, this new HGTV show will give you a peek behind the curtain of that high-end real estate market.
“Hot Market” is a new show on HGTV Canada that follows five top real estate agents based in Toronto as they buy, sell and hustle for listings.
Stephanie Adams, a Toronto-based agent who specializes in listings around Kempenfelt Bay and Lake Simcoe, is one of those featured.
“People are going to get to see inside some stunning homes and go through the process of buying, selling or getting a listing,” she said. “It’s all really, really nice properties.”

The show features eight hour-long episodes, which were filmed last summer.
In the first episode, viewers see how Adams “hustles” to get a listing for a $10-million-plus home on Kempenfelt Bay with its own helipad, library, sauna, gym, wine cellar, tennis courts and more.
By investing her own money into a presentation for the homeowner, Adams and the company she works for, Harvey Kalles Real Estate Ltd., are able to land the listing.
“It was an amazing experience,” Adams said of being on the show. “I am a very animated person; the fact that I could bring that to the screen, that was really fun for me.”
She said she was able to sell the home featured in the first episode for about $10 million.
High-end real estate has a lot of “eye candy” people love to see, Adams said.
“It’s sexy. It’s exciting,” she said. “Plus, we all like to dream. We are wanting that dream home.”
She said people often ask her about her clients. They want to know who lives in these luxury homes and what they do.
“My clients are so amazing. They’re always so very down to earth,” she said. “You would never know when you meet them that they live in these extreme homes.”
But they are highly successful and have high expectations, which is why Adams has to put the work in and make her money.
