I haven't seen many real-estate agent reviews on Yelp, but I'm going to buck the trend. Good things deserve Yelp reviews!
My husband and I just bought our first house. It was a pretty crazy experience, especially considering how out of control the Toronto housing market is right now: bidding wars, deceptive prices, shifting neighbourhoods...it's hard to imagine navigating without some expert advice.
Elana Levinson, of Forest Hill Real Estate, was recommended to me through a friend and, after working with her for a few months, I can happily say that she was an absolutely fabulous agent. She gave us thoughtful advice, but still gave us enough space to make up our own minds. She never pushed us and on the contrary really listened to what we wanted. She paid attention to what excited us and never wasted our time with places that didn't meet our criteria.
Most importantly, though, Elana was so caring. She treated us with great warmth and respect and we felt from day one that she was absolutely on our side. I couldn't recommend Elana (or her partner, Mehre) enough. Go call Elana and go get your house! read more
