TESTIMONIALS

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!!!

If you’re looking for full service, we recommend Jon and team. Houses do not sell themselves - especially during market corrections - so we were fortunate to have Jon in our court. His ability to balance our upfront expectations with market realities was just one key success factor. Further, Jon had a systematic process on the sell side which greatly reduced our stress levels. Throughout our buy/sell journey, Jon leveraged data, shared strategies and tactics aligned with current market conditions, and negotiated with tact and with integrity.

As first time home buyers, Jon was the perfect person to have as we navigated the Toronto real estate market. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about what was needed to pursue the properties we were interested in, he made the process far less daunting than we expected. Jon got us exactly what we wanted and offered clear and informed guidance on value and growth potential. It is clear that Jon approaches real estate with the intent to create long-term partnerships with clients and this shows through in the way he communicates, advocates and works with people. We could count on Jon any time of the day – his thoughtful, informed and thorough support was exactly what we needed.

Jon is the perfect partner for someone to have in their journey of finding a home. He is extremely motivated, engaged and very responsive. In days where time is literally money (24 hours can mean losing your shot in THE house, or >50k extra), you will need someone able to find the reality behind the “asking price” and get to the bottom of what is required in each situation very fast. I was flabbergasted to see how his assessments of property prices were always right.

From the time I told Jon that I loved a place, it took him less than 24h to run a thorough background check and to guarantee that that place was mine. I should mention that when I decided to put down an offer, there was another comparable place closing (same location, but 1bed and and 1bath less than mine). When I learned how much this one was sold for, I knew we had made a FANTASTIC deal!
