WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Thursday June 9th, 2011

We recently sold our house at 361 Sackville Street with the help of Michael. We cannot recommend Michael enough. He offered us sound advice about price, what we needed to do to get that price (and above) and talked us through every eventuality and kept our interests (and our states of mind) a priority all the way through. His local knowledge of the streets and houses is absolutely essential if you’re buying or selling in Cabbagetown. He made what can be an absolute nightmare very easy.

Michael O’Brien recently helped us sell our house on Shuter Street and purchase a house on Sparkhall Avenue in Riverdale.

Michael is bar-none the best real estate agent in the city. He is such a consummate professional and his knowledge is unequalled. Our experience was such a pleasure we have no hesitation to be repeat customers in the future.

Michael helped me with the sale of my house on Sackville Street and with the purchase of a downtown condominium. Michael was responsive, polite, attentive and knowledgeable.

Working with Michael in the sale and purchase of our homes was a very positive experience and my husband and I would not hesitate to do so again. Michael’s mastery was in understanding our needs and aligning them with the needs of the buyers of our home and the sellers of the home we wanted.

The process of preparing for, and living through, the sale and purchase was stressful and exhausting as it seems to be for everyone. Michael carried enormous weight for us by helping us assess what we could afford and prioritizing our requirements, preparing our property for sale (including sourcing the people to do the work), following up with people who had been to see the property and monitoring other ongoing transactions in the neighbourhood.

His relentless preparation for the moment of an offer paid dividends and we had very successful transactions on both the purchase and sale. We know that we did very well as a direct result of Michael’s efforts. These are the largest assets we own and our trust in Michael to look after our interests was well placed. We are able to offer an unconditional recommendation for Michael’s services.

Keith Tarswell, Manager

Bosley Real Estate

169 Danforth Avenue

Dear Mr. Tarswell,

We are writing this from our new home in Costa Rica.  We recently sold our townhouse in Toronto  in advance of the big move.  This was an emotional experience as we were not just moving from one house to another within the city, but out of the country.

The sale was made infinitely easier in no small way due to the skills, compassion and professionalism of Michael O'Brien, the agent who sold our home.  Because of our positive experience, we have no hesitation in recommending Michael to anyone buying or selling in the downtown area.

Sincerely,

Keith and Karen Duncan

Ojochal, Costa Rica
