My husband and I knew exactly what condominium we wanted to buy for an investment rental property…read more We thought we would try to keep costs down and negotiate directly with the selling agent ourself. Not far into the process we realized we needed an experienced agent on our side and especially one familiar with the downtown condominium market. Thank goodness we enlisted Jen!! Jen stepped in to help us and immediately got to work researching recent sales to ensure we were making the right pricing decision. My husband and I learned that "getting a deal" in today's marketplace is about having a skilled agent working with you who knows how to handle the negotiation process right from the start. As one of the few agents in Canada with her MCNE designation Jen got us the best price for our investment. She even took her services one step further and helped us get the condominium rented. Not only did Jen negotiate with the tenant's agent to get a great rental price but she also consulted with us on the level of renovations, repairs and staging that were required to attract the best tenants. We look forward to working with Jen again on our next investment property!

Jackie is absolutely terrific. From day one she was the ultimate professional, not in a cold,…read morebusiness like manner, but as a human being, understanding exactly how important it was that our two properties sell quickly, without sacrificing price. She went well beyond the basic 'requirements' of a real estate agent, providing suggestions on staging, decorating, moving companies, even apartment rentals that we are going to move into! A truly full service service. Her experience in corporate relocation's really shows, as she understands, and is highly qualified for all aspects of listing, selling, moving - everything to make you happy! We cannot say enough good things about her, and would recommend her to anyone, whether a high end specialized sale, or a low end market entry. Tom and Patty Muir

I can't say enough good things about Jackie Ferris, she went above and beyond the call of duty as…read moremy real estate agent; not only did she find me my dream home; she also sold my existing home. Moving is never easy it's stressful and expensive, Jackie was able to help minimize all the stress by introducing me to a great lawyer, a photographer, and a mortgage consultant. Jackie also gave me tips on home staging and I was able to avoid paying for staging by minimizing the content of my home and painting the house a fresh white. Jackie is one of the only agents that target social media to sell a home, she targeted people that she felt would be a good match for my home and this included a wonderful video, highlighting my homes assets set to music which was viewed well over 1000 times. My home sold quickly and above asking, a wonderful and easy transaction. If your looking for a down to earth agent with excellent follow through and great people skills Jackie is the agent for you, she puts the client first and works for their best interests. Jackie wants the client to be happy and satisfied with their sale or purchase and she does not use any pressure tactics; one thing you will love about Jackie is she is always available for a quick call or a text.

Word of mouth travelled fast and I was referred to Realosophy and worked with Vincci and John. I was impressed with how Realosophy handled both the closing of my condo and purchase of my house. I didn't get the usual "sales-talk." Instead, I received factual demographic trends of the area, the surrounding amenities, the history of the home, and really usable information that allowed me to make an intelligent decision - not an emotional one. I needed to know the facts, the pros and cons before signing up for the biggest purchase of my life. Without question, I will be using Realosophy again and again and again. - Ludwig

I was living in the US with our two toddlers and helping care for my godmom who is battling cancer when my husband accepted a job in Toronto. We had no plans to leave Vancouver and had just over a month to make the move to the GTA. I hitched a trailer onto the back of my SUV and drove 20+ hours to Toronto with only a weekend to secure a rental before flying back to Vancouver. My husband and I both were under a lot of stress and Ali (our realtor) swooped in to help us with one of our biggest decisions - where to live! From the moment we first connected with her, she demonstrated such professionalism, responsiveness in matching our needs and desires to an ideal location and impressive confidence in her ability to get us exactly what we wanted. I spent two days touring homes with Ali and lots of emails, texts and phone calls between the three of us. I love that the company is run by women, and they are all great with communication and trying to understand your needs. Christine and Lori also reached out several times prior to commencing our search and even after we moved in, making sure that everything went smoothly and that we were happy. They also off wrap-around services and referrals for any type of repair, renovation or service work you may need in your home. We are beyond satisfied with this company and the services that Ali provided to us and will definitely continue to work with them, and refer our contacts as well.

This is our 4th time using Christine and her team. Our experience has always been outstanding…read more Christine is the most dedicated and knowledgable real estate agent that we have ever worked with. She always makes time for you no matter how busy she is. My husband and I purchased our most recent place together, this was my first time buying, Christine was very good at ensuring the place was in good order especially things I did not check in the walk though she was on it. We truly love working with Christine and her team because they are very quick to respond to emails/ calls and if there is a request they ensure to complete it ASAP. Christine truly cares for her clients and always ensure they are taken care of. We truly consider Christine as a friend not just a agent, she is so warm and welcoming. My husband and I view the condo on Saturday at 2PM and Rakhee and Anika (Mortgage Savvy) they did the underwrite in just under and hour and we purchases the place by 8PM. Needless to say they are a DREAM TEAM. Anika was excellent took the time to go over every detail which was great as this was all new and abundance of information. Thank you to everyone, we are all moved in and couldn't be happier.

We would like to give a big shout out to Matt Shapiro! Matt helped us find the most amazing tenants…read morefor our beloved home in Toronto and we could not be happier. 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. From coaching us with prep before hitting the market, to managing the rental process, and even doing a mid-lease follow up to make sure everything was going well, we would totally recommend Matt and would definitely love to continue working with him! 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!
