This is specifically a review of two of the real estate agents, Harry Siu and Sara Qiao, although…read moretheir company is listed on all signs. For the past few months my family has been looking for a home in Markham, Ontario and although my experience with the majority of agents selling houses has been positive, the only two negative experiences that were negative were with Harry and Sara. On March 30th 2024, their company, with signs plastered up and down the Mount Joy area of Markham advertised an open house, and on numerous real estate sites advertised a specific house on Williamson Road having an open house. Since this was on a weekend, my wife and I had to hire a sitter to watch the offspring while we made our way to this open house. We were one of numerous cars waiting outside knocking, we saw a few families frustratingly tell us there doesn't seem to be anyone home and they headed out. We called the number on the phone, Harry answered and explained he was sick and couldn't make it, I asked if that meant the open house was cancelled and yes said, yes, cancelled, and he claimed it should have been taken off the site, when I explained he wasn't he just said he is sick and cannot make it in. People are human, I understand sick days happen but in order to not waste people's time and money he should have made sure all sites (and all physical signs) were taken off. Fast forward to this weekend. Originally earlier in the week, a specific house on Tilman in Markham, Ontario was advertised as having an open house on both April 20 and April 21. When our agent called to confirm, he was specifically told there was no open house on Saturday April 20th but there would be an open house on Sunday April 21st. We again booked a sitter and on Sunday April 21st headed over. As we approached, we saw numerous signs with Harry and Sara's faces and we joked it would be cancelled. Once again, as we approached we saw people knocking on the door and leaving. We tried to open the door and it was locked, we called and Harry answered. His first response was he forgot and would be there in 30 minutes, I said okay and we waited. About 10 minutes later he phoned me and asked if I was "actually waiting" and I said yes, and then he said "can't make it now, daughter is sick, have to stay home, open house is cancelled". We asked if anyone would eventually come and he said no, but did say "sorry you couldnt make it to the open house yesterday, you should have come than!", we explained our agent told us there was no open house yesterday. He confirmed there was. A short while later our agent called, and confirmed what he (our agent) was originally told - there was no open house on Saturday. I am not sure what games these agents are playing, but I will most certainly not be bidding on any houses being represented by Anjia Realty. They waste people's time and money with their unprofessional lies.

Sylvia Morris is the most unprofessional and rude "Professional" I have ever come in contact with…read more I would not recommend her as a Real Estate agent because as a Client she will scare away potential renters/buyers and towards the renters/buyers she is rude and belittling. She attempted to threaten us saying we would be living next to her clients son basically saying he would be watching us and this is all before she would even show us the listing. She was unbelievable. Dont waste your time with this miserable lady. The owners on this listing unfortunately missed out on some amazing tenants!

We currently live out of country so it was very important for us to find the right fit for this situation. It can be very scary entrusting your home with people you don't know, but we feel very pleased with the tenants Matt helped us find and where we are at with our rental.

Also a big loving shout out to Brel themselves - Mel & Brendan - 2 incredible people!! Thank you for all the love, fun, & guidance over the years, we adore you both and wish you and your team nothing but the best!

We just sold our home through BREL and we could not have been happier!…read more We had some bad experiences in the past with agents when selling our previous homes, so we did a LOT of research to find the right agent to sell this one. After interviewing 4 agents, we went with Lisa Bednarski and BREL and we are so glad we did. Lisa's enthusiasm, positive attitude, and excitement at the challenge was a refreshing change. She was patient with us when we needed reassuring, and got us through all the steps to SOLD. In 3 days after listing! Kiel, the BREL stager did an amazing job making our home look like it was in a magazine! I recommend BREL for anyone buying, or selling. In this day and age, most real estate agents are like dinosaurs, but not BREL, they are showing the rest how it should be done in the digital age, and with all the marketing tools available, not just an MLS listing. Do your research and you will see why so many of BREL's clients are singing their praises... they are just that great. Thank you Lisa Bednarski, this Lisa is grateful we found you!

When I eventually got home 4 hours later I saw my door was left open 3-4 inches. Someone could have walked right in and stolen all of my belongings. So if you want an agent that's going to put your property at risk and be unprofessional, work with Mike. If you want someone you can trust, find someone else. I know I won't be letting Mike into any of my properties again unsupervised.

Today, I decided to reach out one more time because were very interested in the property, but had no agent to assist us with a showing. Franky was very curt and rude. He went on to explaining that he does not represent the seller and that the sellers have multiple serious offers and without an agent, they will not consider us. Then he abruptly hung up. These are all understandable points that could have been conveyed politely. Franky was rude and disrespectful. I will not peruse any listings represented by Bay Street in future.

After them and their client offering the unit to a prospective applicant they request first and last and then requested 3 additional months of rent up front (on a Monday). Which is ILLEGAL. Agent for this prospective applicant went back for clarification cause the email was unclearly written. No response for more than 24 hours. Perspective Applicant then offered first and last plus one additional month after no response for 24 hours - then no communication - Friday am went back to Applicants agent and said they were not proceeding with the applicant. The Applicant then offered the original requested amount and they were told they were working with another applicant - which was not previously mentioned. They have no ethics or morals. And they do not advise their clients to operate within the law - the level of greed is disgusting. This agent has been reported to RECO for their behaviour and I would recommend steering clear of interactions with this agent!
