Lorne, You made the experience of selling our condo and buying our new home very comforting and calming. At first, we were not really ready to sell because we had just finished a number of renovations and it was in the middle of the pandemic. After seeing, hearing your presentation, strategy of selling our condo, and how you were going to assist us in buying a new home, we were so excited with your enthusiasm, passion, confident, and experience and that we were convinced to start the process. You made thing happen real fast for us, we found and purchased a beautiful new home in a great neighbourhood, even before getting an offer on our condo. That was the trust, confidence, and faith we had in you. You made both transactions close smoothly on the same day. Thank you Lorne, for all your help we are very happy in our new home. Cathlene Christy - 102-10 Malta Ave., Brampton, On

You stand behind your word and are extremely professional, sincerely. Joe, Carol & Robbie Dominaux - 54 Lindridge Avenue, Brampton.

Lorne, Thank you so much for your help in finding our dream home.  You worked tirelessly to show us homes, research new ones and when we found the right one (rather quickly, I must say), you worked hard to make it happen. You even talked them down more than I would have even tried.  Thank you for being there through the home inspection, for answering all my phone calls and replying to my endless questions and text messages. If ever we decide to move, we will certainly call on you again. That is a BIG if though, we love, love, love our new home.

We have done several transactions with Lorne, buying, and selling several houses with him going back some 20+ years. There is a reason why one continually goes back to the same resources, whatever that resource may be, and that is no exception here. Lorne is by far superior in his field. He is loyal, honest, has a work ethic in his industry second to none, which all speaks to his integrity. Every transaction (and there have been many) has been completely seamless without fail, even pulling a rabbit out of the hat for us on more than one occasion. To say he has represented our interests and needs time and time again, without a single issue is an understatement. He just comes through for us! I have personally observed him outhustle, outwit, and outmaneuver other agents time after time. So much so, we have personally recommended his services to all my family and friends without hesitation. As mentioned, he is the perfect combo of honestly, loyalty, industry knowledge, and integrity, as well, has a set of connections for what seems like every single possible circumstance, home related or not! In our latest venture, Lorne’s, staging, strategy, and perseverance got us multiple offers, SOLD above ask, and firm! In closing, Lorne has become much more than our top choice realtor, he has become a trusted and loyal friend. He has become such a valued member of our team that we have contemplated this out loud, “What the heck are we to do if the day comes and Lorne decides to hang it up, and ride into the sunset?” But for now, we are grateful to have Lorne in our corner each time we try and navigate the complicated world of real estate! Jeff Waite & Jackie Seguin - 50 Settler Court, Brampton, On

Lorne is a trustworthy realtor who you can trust with unwavering confidence. In our first meeting with Lorne, we immediately appreciated his experience, knowledge, transparency, organization, and guidance as we prepared to consider listing our home. In searching for a house, Lorne was available 24/7, and took the time to find us a home that met all our (somewhat unrealistic) expectations. When it came time to make an offer on our dream home, Lorne was aggressive and eager, and took complete, timely control of the transaction. We knew that we had someone fighting in our corner to secure the purchase, while respecting our limitations and ensuring our comfort throughout the entire process. In listing our home, Lorne provided insight in staging, took care of preparing professional brochures of our property, and marketed our home to run several successful open houses on a long weekend with only four days’ notice. Inevitably, we had a bidding war on the Monday of a long weekend, three days after we listed. Lorne secured an offer for us that was $15,000.00 over asking, and his attention to detail throughout the entire process ensured that the transaction proceeded with no hiccups or interruptions. The conditions that he recommended for the sale of our current home and purchase of our new home allowed us to sleep easily at night throughout this process, as we felt in complete control of the outcome. In dealing with Lorne, it felt like having a family member represent us that we could trust wholeheartedly. He patiently answered all our questions and aligned us with numerous contacts who were ultimately reliable and trustworthy. We would recommend Lorne with the highest confidence to all our friends and family and foresee success in all his future real estate transactions. You are wonderful Lorne! All the very best (and we will be in touch when we are ready to host you for a drink!) Thank you for everything, Shane & Christine Cote & Family - 24 Nutmeg St, Brampton, On

Lorne,

Thank you for selling our house in 4 days! With a new baby in the family, I was dreading the thought of having to keep the house in pristine condition for showings. You made the process quick and painless. It really was a pleasure dealing with you. Thank you. Laurie, Neil & Alex Clouthier

We have used Lorne many times to sell our homes. He is very professional and passionate to each of his clients. Lorne works beyond his expectations. We recently lost my mother in law and had to sell her home. We thought of Lorne right away to help us put her home on the market. He realized how emotional this was and was very sympathetic while also giving expert advice. We wouldn’t ever want to work with any other agent. George and Angie Baldaia - 10 Glendale Ave, Brampton

Lorne, your knowledge of the business was overwhelming.  You always took the time to ensure I understood contracts, rules and kept on the tails of the property management persons to help me get the items on the “wish” list.  I could never have moved forward with confidence for this deal without your guidance. And to think this was simply a rental. I would highly recommend your knowledge and dedication to any who asked. Heather Frost - 6 Birchfield Cres, Caledon.

Lorne, You were a consummate professional when it came to buying and selling our home. You provided keen insight into the processes and procedures of the Ontario system making it easy for us to purchase and ultimately sell. Lorne's superior knowledge of the Brampton market and community allowed us to make excellent decisions without wasting any time. His knowledge of the business community allowed us to secure a lawyer to help close the deal and a contractor to carry out renovations - both were outstanding. Simply put Lorne provided excellent customer service where we were treated with dignity and respect. His "full service" approach was extremely helpful, and should we ever find ourselves back in Metro Toronto we would definitely seek Lorne's services again. Darrin Martins and Ian Thoms - 702-26 Hanover Rd, Brampton
