I recently worked with Rebecca on finding a rental condo in Toronto. I live about 2 hours away so searching on my own wasn't very fruitful. I was also new to this market so I was a bit lost. I spent weeks scouring Craigslist and Padmapper but when you are trying to rent in Toronto, all the different options can be completely paralyzing. Someone told me I should contact a realtor because they will help renters for free (they get their cut from the landlord). This was music to my ears. I found Rebecca after a couple Google searches and am so happy I did! I reached out to her via email and she responded quickly with some questions about my preferences and needs. I sent her back a list of must haves, neighbourhoods I liked and other preferences. I also let her know about some potential issues I may have finding a space. Notably - I have a dog, and all my income is self-employed dividend income. The latter can be tricky because it means I don't have a traditional employment letter, and with dividends I don't even have a T4! She reassured me about my worries re: the dog and income and quickly sent me an MLS list of places matching my requirements. She also answered a lot of my questions about the neighbourhoods these buildings were in (i.e. how busy, demographics, noise) and she had a ton of knowledge about the buildings themselves. Basically all the questions I had in my head when I was looking on my own - she knew. She set me up to get daily email update of new MLS listings that match my requirements. She set up all the viewings I was interested in (setting up 4-5 in one day to limit how much I had to travel downtown), drove me around to each place, she handled all of the communication with landlord/property management. She was super upbeat, positive and friendly! When I found a place I liked, she wrote up the lease (including a pet clause that put landlords at ease re: my dog), negotiated with with landlord on terms, collected the paperwork she needed for me, and was the perfect go between the landlord and I. On top of that, being someone from out of town, we were able to handle this all through email (even the signing of documents). BTW - the area/condo I ended up in was in an area I never even thought of, but after learning my personality and likes/dislikes, she recommended it. I instantly fell in love with both the area and building! I would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone - renter, buyer, seller, et al. read more

I was so lucky to have found Rebecca and I unreservedly recommend her as a real estate professional. This summer, my parents sold the house they'd lived in for 35 years and were looking for a condo to rent on fairly short notice. They were completely overwhelmed, having so much to do to pack up their home, not mention the fact that they hadn't had to deal with the rental market in 40 years. Seeking some guidance, I found Rebecca's name, along with several extremely positive online reviews and her professional website and immediately got a good feeling about her. Contacting her was a very excellent decision. She was so supportive and available to us, extremely knowledgeable and professional, without ever being pushy or salesperson-y or fake. She kept things very positive but was always honest. My parents had no idea what they wanted from a condo so it took some trial-and-error and a lot of patience...and Rebecca was an absolute angel. She truly went above and beyond, and helped my parents through the entire process (from finding listings to accompanying them to viewings and then facilitating the final rental agreement) and was kind enough to keep me in the loop as well. I am so grateful to her--for her practical help but also for the support she gave my family during a challenging transition. My parents have just moved into their new condo and they couldn't be happier. Thanks for everything Rebecca! read more

Rebecca recently helped me find a hard loft in downtown Toronto. Rebecca was great in helping narrow down what I was looking for and was always available to arrange a viewing, even on very short notice! She was very organized, didn't put pressure on me to bid on things that didn't feel quite right, and was very responsive to my calls and emails. Rebecca was a consummate professional, who went above and beyond for me in finding the perfect loft to call home! She was prompt and well organized when it came to viewing potential properties and was able to put together the Offer documents on a moments notice (which matters in Toronto!). Once the sale had gone through, she did not abandon me! Instead she recommended contractors for me to use for renos and even helped coordinate them having access to my unit while I was stuck at work! The contractors recommended by Rebecca were efficient and did great work. When I discovered that the previous owner had left a lock on my storage locker, Rebecca quickly arranged to have the lock broken and advocated for the previous owner to pay me for the trouble! If that wasn't enough, when I moved in my first housewarming gift was from Rebecca! In a cut throat and over-saturated market such as Toronto, Rebecca was a godsend. She made the whole process of purchasing my first property a breeze and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to my friends. read more

Our family was moving from San Francisco to Toronto and needed a place to live. Our interim housing was with family members, so we had a roof over our heads but were in a hurry to get settled. That being said, we didn't want to jump into the first property that checked some of our boxes either. We knew we needed a good agent and interviewed a few that we found online. Rebecca was candid, pleasant and incredibly responsive - we went with her. Picking Rebecca turned out to be a stellar choice. Throughout the (somewhat lengthy) process of finding our home, she continued to be very attentive and responsive to our inquiries; was incredibly patient while we hemmed and hawed over where in the city we wanted to live and made sure that we didn't make any choices we would regret. At one point, we went to see a listing with a deposit cheque in hand, ready to make an offer. We were getting desperate to get our own place, and this house satisfied our basic requirements. Rebecca was great about encouraging us to be patient at a time where many agents would have been happy to close a deal. We took her advice and held off, and not too long after that, she wound up helping us get a home that is way better than what we thought we could have! We're so grateful to have found Rebecca and followed her advice, and couldn't recommend her more highly! read more

I had just moved here from Calgary, and I had zero time to look for places or arrange viewings etc. I did a quick search for real estate agents to help me rent a condo, and I found Rebecca. I emailed her out of the blue, with a very specific set of requests (very specific including price ranges, maps of areas, types of units /w pictures). Rebecca immediately and kindly responded and began composing me a list of potential properties based on all of my requirements, which she continually kept updated. I told her I was short on time, and wanted to have a place rented within 2 weeks. She didn't shy away from my timelines, and I always felt treated like a high priority. She took me to view several properties (which she selected perfectly based on my long list of demands), and ended up finding me the perfect unit in my most desired building. Rebecca was very fast and diligent with the paperwork and getting the deal done, even continuing correspondance while she was on vacation to meet MY timeline. I have been in my place for several months now, and its exactly what I wanted. I cant recommend Rebecca enough. She has a great personality, very accommodating and she's extremely on-point when it comes to business. If you need real estate help in Toronto, dont hesitate to call Rebecca. -Daniel Holland read more

When my Boyfriend and I began our journey to find our first home, the first question we said to ourselves was "where do we even start". A quick Google search of Toronto recommended realtors and the next thing I know I am reading reviews on Rebecca that suggested she was easy to work with, professional and will find you your perfect home! The reviews were spot on! Rebecca made our first home buying experience a seamless one. She took every suggestion that we provided to find the perfect condo. After searching for only two weeks we were able to find our dream condo and are extremely happy with our purchase. We definitely thought that this process would take months - however Rebecca only took us to condos that matched our requirements. Rebecca made the entire process easy and explained every step to us. I think that is very important for first time homebuyers due to the fact that this is the largest purchase you are going to make in your life. You not only have your financials involved but also your emotions are invested. We are extremely happy how everything turned out with the entire process and would definitely recommend Rebecca to friends and family! read more

We had no idea what we were looking for when we started working with Rebecca nor did we understand the different characteristics of different neighbourhoods in Toronto (coming from Montreal). All we knew was that we wanted a condo, and had a certain budget to work within. Rebecca went to great lengths to better understand our needs and what area we would be best suited for. One of her recommendations was the High Park area which suited our love for the outdoors and dogs! After much research into the resale market we realized that we wanted to tailor the unit to suit us. We found Daniels High Park which was a year away from occupancy. Rebecca brought to our attention the incentives they were offering and we realized it would be perfect for us! We closed on our unit today and couldn't be happier. It's just perfect! We hole heartedly recommend Rebecca for any resale or pre construction home purchases in the city. She is kind, passionate and truly loves what she does. It was so great to work with her. Cindy - the newest Blue Jay fan! read more

First of all, let me say that Rebecca is an amazing agent. I was looking around for agents to help me purchase my first home and I was lucky enough to find Rebecca. She was not referred to me by anyone, I stumbled across her page through Yelp. Needless to say, I was very fortunate to find a very professional, friendly and stellar agent. Rebecca made me feel like I was her only client; no question was too 'dumb', she made sure that my needs were met and answered all my emails/texts (even while on vacation!) Buying a first home can be very overwhelming but Rebecca made the whole process not as daunting. Her expertise and knowledge allowed me to buy my first home for a great value! I was consistently impressed throughout the whole process. Thanks to Rebecca, I live in a great condo in Toronto and have been (and will continue) to refer to Rebecca to anyone who is looking to buy, sell, rent, lease. You will be very fortunate to have Rebecca on your side. read more

My two friends and I moved from Banff to Toronto at the beginning of September. At first we weren't sure how we were going to find a place when we lived so far away. We found Rebecca and contacted her right away. She got back to me immediately and let us know everything we would need to do in order to find a place. She sent us property matches every day based on what we said we were looking for. When we finally found a few that we liked she viewed them for us usually in the same day. She took pictures and told us what she thought of the place, which was incredibly helpful considering we were on the other side of the country. It didn't take too long to find the place we are living in now and we couldn't be happier! I would definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for a friendly, knowledgable and extremely helpful real estate agent. Thanks again Rebecca! read more

I recently moved back to the Toronto area from Washington, DC and was overwhelmed trying to find a place to rent downtown. After weeks of trying to do it on my own, I got in touch with Rebecca Keyzer through her website. I was immediately impressed by how friendly and professional she was when she phoned me the following day. She provided me with honest and well-informed advice that was tailored to me as a young professional. Thanks to Rebecca, I am now living in a terrific community with a perfect condo for me. Throughout the whole process, she was always available to answer questions and she ensured that everything happened seamlessly with minimal stress. I have recommended Rebecca Keyzer to my friends moving to the city and plan to continue working with her for all of my real estate needs. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Rebecca this summer for rental of a townhouse in Etobicoke, ON. I am in the process of transitioning from Santa Barbara, California to Toronto for business and Rebecca made time available to work with me throughout the leasing process even with the time change. The outcome well exceeded my expectations. Rebecca was invaluable in connecting with the landlord, the utility companies (CARMA, Enbridge Gas,) and keeping me in the loop regarding the rental process. Rebecca's extensive experience with Toronto real estate enabled her to educate me to the processes and answer my many questions. I am grateful to continue to utilize Rebecca as a resource. Her guidance and expertise have been invaluable! Sincerely, Stephen M. Teague read more

Being a first time home buyer with limited information about the process, Rebecca proved invaluable in providing me with the necessary inputs, guiding me through the search and ultimate purchase of my condo. She went out of her way several times to ensure I had access to all the information to make the right decision. From our first meeting where she came prepared with answers to all my questions that I had sent while setting up the meeting to a month after closing when she followed up on my move into the new place, she was a delight to work with. Rebecca is hard working, extremely responsive, and personable agent and I have no hesitation to recommend her to anyone who is looking to purchase or rent a place in Toronto. read more

This review is somewhat overdue, but I wholeheartedly recommend Rebecca. Like some other reviewers, I was moving to Toronto from afar, with very little knowledge of the market. Add to that, it was my first time buying. Rebecca's expertise and skill made the whole process of finding, offering, and closing way less stressful. I am so happy with my place and so very grateful for her effort and assistance. Rebecca was attentive, honest, and accommodating. She has a positive attitude, and was very encouraging, even when finding a place in my price-range in Toronto seemed impossible! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to my own friends and family, nor would I hesitate to contract her again. Thank you, Rebecca. read more

I just bought a condo with Rebecca as my agent. I had switched agents since my other agent often didn't have time for me. Living out of the province, only visiting the city from time to time, made the process of finding the right place challenging. But Rebecca was always positive, patient and incredibly helpful. In the end, she found the perfect place for me. And the process was fun too. She made herself available on short notice and always responded to my communication very quickly. She is very tech-savvy and organized. I appreciated that she wouldn't let me step outside my own comfort zone, even when I myself was tempted! I am very grateful for that. She was great and I can't recommend her highly enough. read more

I was having a torrid time finding a suitable tenant for my vacant condo. Anytime someone approached me regarding the suite it was very difficult to deal with - it's my condo, so I'm going to be impartial. That, and limited time. I really needed someone to just handle the entire process for me and Rebecca far exceeded anything that I would have hoped for. She screened every single individual that enquired. She personally handled any showing requests, and dealt with every single step in a highly professional manner. She has tonnes of energy, vast knowledge of the market, and best of she is an amazing person. I highly, highly recommend Rebecca - you just cannot go wrong. read more

Rebecca hooked my roommate and I up with the sweetest apartment! We had a short timeline and fairly specific list in terms of the location, size, layout, amenities and price. Not only did Rebecca quickly provide us with a list of options, she was able to book viewings asap at our convenience. Furthermore, she was to put together our offer the same day! Most importantly, Rebecca took the time after our offer was accepted to ensure that all the conditions were met (painting, cleaning etc.) and even followed up afterwards to make sure we were enjoying the place! I can't imagine having gone through this process without her help. I absolutely recommend Rebecca! read more

Rebecca helped my roommate and I find our first Toronto condo and we couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. She was both professional and highly accommodating in the process, offering advice and insight. When we found the right condo she ensured that the offer would be put through as soon as possible (i.e. the next day), and we were able to secure the perfect place. In addition, she has assisted greatly in liaising with the owners/landlord regarding any issues we had both prior to our move-in and afterwards. I would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone interested in renting a place in Toronto. The process couldn't have gone more smoothly. read more

We had been in touch with Rebecca for over a year before moving from Sudbury to Toronto. She patiently sent us property matches until we were ready to make the move. Within 2 weeks of looking we had found our ideal place. Rebecca returned all of our calls within minutes and was fully committed to helping us find our first home. As first-time home buyers, she made the entire home buying process seamless for us. She answered all of our questions and went above and beyond to finalize our offer for our current home. If and when we were to move, we would look to Rebecca above anyone else. Thank you! Kiran and Shaynee read more
