TESTIMONIALS

Jon has been an incredible assistance to me and my partner during the last few months, we look forward to working with him again in the future.

The thing that stood out most was the time and care put in to finding us a solution that worked for our situation. Anytime we had a question he was either available right away or called back once he was available. At one point he called while on his vacation, on a Friday evening, because we had an urgent request.

If you’re looking for anything to do with Real Estate I don’t see why you would go to anyone else. Jon always had our best interests in mind.

We’ve had the best experience we could ask for with Jon Brock as our real estate agent. Our house sold for 5% over asking price and was on the market for only 1 day! The entire experience was exciting. We were treated like family as Jon helped us find our dream house with grace, professionalism, and dedication (even throughout a pandemic). We will be forever grateful!

The search for a real estate agent began once we considered selling our family home. We quickly realized there were two types of agents. The first were agents who got your listing, put their sign on your lawn, put an ad in the paper, organized an open house and waited for a buyer to come. These agents we discovered tend to sell only a few houses a year. The second group of agents maintain a full time office staff and have a network of professional associates to advise and assist in the preparation of your home for sale. Jon Brock proved to be a leader in the latter group. Jon demonstrated a true passion, ethical processes and commitment to selling homes. From my first contact Jon’s direct communication and follow up was impressive plus a monthly newsletter which communicated pertinent information about current market trends. His regular updates gave us the confidence to make the final decision when it was appropriate for us to place our house on the market for sale. Jon developed a professional relationship with our entire family which earned him the endearing title of “Real Estate Jon”. Real Estate Jon determined the optimal date to place our home on the market not only the day but to the hour. He presented us with a price range that was realistic, leading us to comfortably make a pricing decision. Also, he sent in his team to assist us in preparing our home to be presented in the best possible light for a buyer. His associates gave excellent suggestions and timelines for us to follow. Jon provided names of reliable trades people to assist with the task that were beyond our abilities. Jon has a process for marketing which goes beyond putting a sign on the lawn; he publishes a high-quality brochure, creates a professional video and displaying our home on its own website. Jon pre marketed our home to the neighborhood, the real estate community and his network.

The results were amazing! Despite being in what everyone called a very poor market, Real Estate Jon booked 45 showings within the first day that produced 4 valid and competing offers culminating in the sale closing in 36 hours for over asking price. Yet this was not the end of his involvement. Jon and his wonderful staff remained in close contact right up to closing to ensure all went smoothly.
On behalf of our entire family, we wish to sincerely thank Jon Brock and his entire team for a job well done. And we would definitely encourage others to utilize his services.

Jon 💯 knew how to make the sale of our home the smoothest process ever! From the moment he stepped foot into our house to discuss what the market was looking like to the point of sale, he was just so prepared with all the answers and contacts we would need to get the house ready. I will definitely refer him to anyone looking for a nice, reliable and clearly experienced realtor!! Thank you Jon!

Jon did an outstanding job representing me when purchasing my first rural property. He had an excellent team of inspectors organized in a very short time frame. He was responsive to my needs, and provided information in a timely and professional manner. Allowing me to feel confident in the negotiated price point, and overall purchase. I would highly recommend Jon, and will use him again in the future.

Jon got it done! My family and I couldn't be happier with the home Jon was able to find AND successfully negotiate for us. Jon is a consummate professional, and took a thought out approach to how he was going to land us our 'forever home', while working within our budget, and balancing our wish list. Jon was calm, cool and collected when presenting to us, and the selling agents. Thanks for everything Jonny!

Edit: Jon utilized his impressive marketing platform to gather a lot of attention to our listing, and was able to help us sell our home in only 6 days, and over ask! We are thrilled with Jon and his services in helping us not only find our forever home, but also get top dollar for the home we sold. Thanks Buddy!

If you are looking for a real estate professional who truly listens and takes the time to understand you; is smart, organized, prepared and well-informed; and has an admirable work ethic, call Jon!

Jon helped my husband and me in every aspect of buying our first home in just a matter of weeks, including sharing his connections with everyone from mortgage brokers to shade installers, and he has inspired confidence every step of the way. He’s clearly very invested in and cares about his community (thank you for all the guided phone tours of Newmarket!), and he really knows the neighbourhoods in which he works. Jon thoroughly looked at each property we visited together, offered thoughtful insight, and also acted as a much-needed “voice of reason” throughout the entire journey.

Jon acts in his clients’ best interests, and with a view of fostering a long-term partnership. He could have persuaded us to increase our offer price on one property we considered, for what I believe could have been a more efficient turnaround for him, but I am so grateful that Jon had the integrity to advocate on our behalf and look out for our best interest. Jon keenly strategized to get us the best possible result–a beautiful first family home in a better neighbourhood, straightforward negotiation, and under(!) our expected budget. All of his work made the entire first-time home-buying process so much less daunting. I can’t express how much I appreciate Jon’s hard work and unreservedly recommend him to anyone!!!

The reality of real estate in Toronto and the adjacent areas is that you have to be quick, REALLY quick. You need an agent who you can count on literally at any time of the day to be there for you, and Jon is that guy! We went from seeing the place to making an offer and to buying the place within 12 hours really. Jon worked tirelessly throughout the process – all the way up to past midnight to ensure all the paperwork was in order once we were committed to making an offer on our new home. He also managed to negotiate timelines that worked in our favour rather than leave the market open to bidding. If Jon hadn’t stepped up, we wouldn’t be homeowners today.

On a personal note, I found Jon to be very level-headed and forthcoming in our discussions. His assessments of property values helped us gauge what we really could and couldn’t afford. This is key, because most (all) properties in this region go well above asking and a true assessment is essential to help you save your sweat and tears. We found him to be very courteous, detail-oriented and someone who genuinely seemed to be involved in this journey with us as a ‘partner’ as he likes to call it. Jon, thanks for making it happen for us!
