Lorne, We owe you a deep debt of gratitude for helping us sell our house and buy a new one. Thanks for being so courteous, respectful, and professional in your dealings with us. We have had other moves in the past but none that were guided so expertly by the agent. We always felt throughout the entire process and even after the sold sign was put up, that you genuinely cared about our family, Thank you. Debbie, Geoff, Muirgen, Jacob & Bradley Baker

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 did a fantastic job helping us sell our home of 30 years in the middle of a pandemic. As soon as we met Lorne, we knew he was the right agent for us. When we initially contacted him via email, he was quick to return a call. Through the whole process he was always easy to reach and always responded promptly. Lorne is honest, straight forward, extremely knowledgeable, and most importantly, experienced in the Brampton real estate market. He offered us several options & strategies to market our home. He listened and was sensitive to our concerns. In the end, he delivered exactly what we asked of him and exactly what he said he would. We would not hesitate to recommend Lorne to friends, or anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Kathy & Peter Girard - 40 Brookview Road, Brampton

Lorne, We want to take this opportunity to thank you so much for your genuine concern and always looking out for our interest.  It is truly rare these days to find a "salesperson" that you can really trust and know they are looking out for your involvement in the process. It has truly been both a professional and personal pleasure getting to know you. We would not hesitate to refer anyone who is thinking of buying or selling a home directly to you. Kathy Lewis - 24 Brookland Dr, Brampton.

Lorne, Thank you for easing all our fears of selling a home for the 1st time. We could not have asked for a more experienced or professional agent, even in these tough days when COVID was running rapid. You guided us, equipped our home with PPE, and helped alleviate our concerns about allowing strangers into our home. From the 1st meeting to the SOLD sign being put on the lawn, we knew our best interests were your number one priority. You will always be our agent of choice, should we ever move again. Kevin & Wendy Fletcher - 45 Fanshawe Drive, Brampton.

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

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 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.

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
