Ben is a very knowledgeable and professional realtor who was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. He took the time to understand our needs, provided thoughtful advice, and was always responsive to our questions. His experience and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy realtor. read more

[Update in response to business reply:] I want to clarify that I never asked Ben to lie or misrepresent anything (I have text correspondence to prove it). I simply requested discretion when presenting the lease application--something I later confirmed with another licensed real estate agent is entirely standard and ethical in this industry. Ben's reply avoids the core issue, which is that he disclosed private information against my clear instructions and responded with hostility and abusive language when I addressed it. Notably, in his response, he does not deny using the language I described--something that should give any prospective client, especially women, serious pause before deciding to work with him. Now that I've seen how he chooses to handle client concerns, it's clear he was never acting in my best interest. In hindsight, I'm relieved I never purchased a property through him--because the financial and emotional consequences would have been far greater. ------------------------------------------------- [Review update:] I had previously written a positive review for Ben Fenlon based on an experience in 2022, but I now feel obligated to update it after a recent encounter that was deeply unprofessional and unacceptable. When I attempted to lease a unit, Ben disregarded my clear instructions and disclosed private information to the listing agent without my consent--jeopardizing the deal and violating my trust. When I addressed this, he became aggressive and disrespectful. He raised his voice, used vulgar language, and told me that if I was going to "act bitchy," then the lease "wasn't worth his time" because the commission "wasn't high enough." I had asked Ben to follow a common and fully ethical approach, and to exercise discretion when presenting the application. I expected him, as my agent, to handle the process strategically and professionally, without disclosing unnecessary personal information that could weaken my position. Instead, he ignored my instructions, dismissed my concerns, and treated me with outright disrespect when I raised them. His conduct was not only unprofessional, but also at odds with the duty of care, loyalty, and discretion expected of a registered real estate professional under RECO's Code of Ethics. I can no longer recommend Ben's services under any circumstances. read more

Ben was dedicated, professional and did everything he could to make sure we all felt good about the sale of our place. Truly appreciate the care and quality of the service Ben provided as our realtor. read more

My Fiancée and I were running out of time to move into a new house as we were expecting a baby in about a month. We tried to get help from about 3 realtors until we met Ben. He not only provided many excellent properties, set up viewings, and submitted offers for us. He was much more professional than any of the others. He cared about our needs and did his best to help us find the right place. We highly recommend Ben for any services, whether buying, renting, or having a realtor manage your property. If it wasnt for him, we would still be hunting! Thanks, Ben! read more

Ben sold my mother's co-op apartment in High Park/BWV. Selling a co-op can be complicated; Ben was knowledgeable and adept at handling all the hurdles. Even though there were several similar units on the market, ours sold quickly and at a good price. Quick responses. No hiccups. Highly recommended!!! read more

Ben is excellent - a consummate professional who happens to be a great guy. He was prompt, proactive, and a genuine pleasure to work with. He sent a ton of great listings, organized viewings on extremely short notice, and negotiated effectively on my behalf. Whether you're looking to rent, sell, or buy, talk to Ben. read more

I needed to find a new place to rent in Toronto but was living in a different city. Covid also made things challenging, so I wasn't sure how to go about looking for a new place to live (besides the fact that I'm picky). Ben was my landlord at my old unit, and he offered to help me find a condo (he was also a great landlord, as well!). He sent me listings that were exactly what I was looking for, and when I found a few condos I was interested in, he arranged a virtual visit. He walked me through the condo using video chat and answered all of my questions, and did everything in a very pleasant and friendly manner. When I wanted to take the place, he even went back to measure it for me and helped me deal with my interactions with the new landlord! Essentially, Ben went above and beyond for me! He even checked in with me after I moved in to see if I was happy with my new condo (which I am!). read more

We just completed selling our house and buying a condo with Ben Fenlon as our Realtor. We've know him since he was a baby and we were newlyweds, but this was our first chance to work with him. He expertly guided us through the process, but always considered what our wishes were without any pressure. With his insight and marketing, we were able to attract many potential buyers to look at our home, and were able to get a good price (over asking) in an uncertain market. He gave us plenty of needed support in looking for our new condo, especially in helping decide bids and strategy. He was there for us every step of the way. He communicated with us promptly and was very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of real estate. We highly recommend Ben to anyone who needs a Realtor. read more

Ben is your superpower dealing with complexity in real estate in Toronto. He recently helped us find an incredible lease, managing enormous amounts of documentation, paperwork, questions and changes in this wildly competitive market. He went above and beyond the call (I'm not sure when he sleeps to be honest) and we were able to secure an amazing lease. He continues to help us out after signing. Highly, highly recommend! Would put more than five stars if allowed. read more

Recently Ben helped me with the sale of my home in Toronto. I found Ben to have very good experience with the Toronto real estate market, very knowledgable and provided lots of great advice. The floor plans and listing photos he prepared were excellent. He was always available and very quick to return calls and answer questions. At the moment it is a difficult market and Ben worked tirelessly to run the open home showings, get buyer foot traffic through the door and ultimately got the house sold. I was very happy with the final outcome. If I was buying or selling I would definitely work with Ben again and can highly recommend him. read more

I am a university student who was looking for an apartment to rent for next year in downtown Toronto. Ben helped me find and secure the perfect place that checked off all of boxes. He was very involved and made the entire process stress free for me. read more

Ben was an amazing agent to work with from start to finish. We listed our house with total confidence in his experience and knowledge. It went as smoothly as could go, and was great working with him throughout it all. Very accommodating, not pushy, great suggestions, super fast response time EVERY TIME, and a real work-horse to help make the sale happen! read more

We highly recommend Ben as a real estate agent. He was referred to us by another realtor. We've only bought a home before and the selling process was new to us. He was always available and very quick to get back to us and was patient dealing with us in answering any questions we had and helped us to keep calm navigating what could have been a very stressful situation. He was very confident that our condo would sell even with the market downturn. We really appreciated his experience and expertise with the Toronto real estate market. Really put us at ease. It took a little longer to sell our condo but we got the price we wanted and we're very happy about that. He also was very helpful with information about Guelph, which is where we're moving to, as he worked and lived there before. Couldn't have asked for a better realtor to work with. read more

I highly recommend Ben as your "go to" real estate agent! Ben helped my husband and I with the sale of our first home and the purchase of our second home in Guelph. Recently, Ben helped us secure a rental unit in downtown Toronto for my son who is attending university. Ben listened to our needs, he is supportive and just amazing in sharing his expertise in the Toronto real estate market. His client service is awesome as he patiently educated us on the process and he is responsive !! Thank you Ben for making the rental process as pain free as possible!! You were incredible and I will be recommending you to my network. read more

We contacted Ben looking for a quick sale of my mother's condo. Within days Ben viewed the condo, made recommendations to prepare it for sale as well as recommended a price for a quick sale. After we had cleaned and cleared the condo Ben looked after everything from assisting in plumbing repairs, to mocking up condo photos, to becoming the contact for the condo management, to granting other agents access to the condo. We had multiple offers and Ben worked to the last minute to get us the best price. Knowing how hard Ben worked on our sale, I highly recommend others use him for their real estate transactions. read more

We could not be happier with the service that Ben provided. We probably weren't the easiest customers: we can only look at houses on weekends, we're limited in our budget, we were pretty specific in the area we wanted to buy in and what we were looking for. Ben took it all in stride, then even walked us through a complete nightmare of a buying process. Guess what? Lots of mortgage and insurance companies don't want to give money for/insure a super old house, particularly if you're first time buyers. And if they do, you have to jump through a billion hoops. While we were freaking out, Ben was always available for an emergency contractor quote/visit, our millions of questions and everything else. There are definitely times when he was working on our paperwork incredibly late into the night. We actually met up at 10pm or something to sign some stuff once. And he did it with a smile. He also fought for us when other suppliers were being difficult/stubborn. I know that we weren't the only clients that he had during this time, but he definitely treated us like we were. He made an incredibly difficult buying process easier by being available, always being on the ball and working hard for us. If our plan to grow old and die in this house falls through, Ben's going to be the guy we call to sell it and find us a new one. read more

Ben Fenlon - Royal Lepage - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I recently had an unplanned house purchase, so went to yelp to find a realtor. I was forced to leave the place I'd lived for 12 yrs as the landlord wanted the place back. I lucked out on Ben as I went from eviction notice to home ownership within 14 days. Given I only had 60 days to find somewhere else to live, I was pretty impressed that Ben found me what I wanted and closed it below asking price in 14 days. I work in sales and so many sales people (of which realtors are a form) don't listen to their clients. I told Ben I wanted a big yard and I got a massive yard in Etobicoke. I told Ben I didn't want to pay for someone else's improvement as I wouldn't likely see the same value in their taste as they did. Ben found me an estate sale where the elderly owner had only done maintenance and no modernizing - perfect! I explained to Ben that I'm a 'value buyer' and expect great value for dollar. I've been told by everyone who has seen the property that I got a super sweet deal (including 2 other realtors who knocked on my door trying to drum up business). Everyone has buying criteria even if they're not consciously aware of what those things are. Ben will guide you through the process of figuring out what is important to you and then go find it. Given a home is for most people their single biggest investment, I think that's pretty important. read more

Ben sold my Roncesvalles home this past summer. It was such a pleasure to work with him. He is professional, relatable, he has fantastic communication skills and he knows his profession inside out. Our house sold for over asking in a very short time. Ben was there throughout the process to make what can be a very stressful process, seamless. After working with Ben, I cannot imagine using anyone else in the future, not only did we get our desired result selling our house, Ben also helped me find my dream condo. I highly recommend Ben to anyone in the market to buy or sell, you will be happy you did. read more

I have worked with Ben more than once - in fact, I have bought and sold with him three times. And if I was to move again, I would definitely work with him again. He looks out for your best interest and is honest and straight-forward. He has a good knowledge of the market and the neighborhoods in Toronto and is hard working. His easy-going personality makes it a pleasure to work with him. But what I appreciated the most is that he puts the client first which is refreshing. read more

Ben is great! Bought and sold a house in Toronto with him. He takes the time with you and is with you every step of the way.

We were looking to rent an house in Toronto and we had just few days to find a place, as we were staying in an hotel. We managed to find the house we wanted during the first afternoon of properties walk around. We got the house after the first offer. We are very satisfied with Ben services and professionalism. He even helped us out with house related matters, as we are newbies in Canada. Definitely a key asset in our move to Canada! Highly recommended. read more

I recently listed my condo with Ben. He also helped me find a wonderful detached home of my dreams. Ben was extremely helpful and really took the time to walk me through the process. This was my first time going through a sale of property as well as buying a detached home. Ben is extremely patient and knowledgeable in the Industry. Ben is a very honest realtor and is not trying to make a transaction for his own benefit and is willing to walk away form a sale if it's not right for his client. Not only that, he was extremely hands on throughout the process. He was always available to answer every message and phone call. He was great at explaining the process and things that I did not understand well and he would do it as many times as I wanted him to. He was also extremely helpful in calming my nerves throughout the process. He always has a smile on his face and it really was absolutely wonderful to work with him. Ben has a huge network of people that he was able to connect me with to help with both transactions. I absolutely recommend him to everyone!!! read more
