We thought that Selling our house and buying a new house during COVID was going to be risky, but I must say we had the best man for the job in Lorne Deffett.  Selling our condo townhouse had a few ups and downs but Lorne went over and above to help us sell and that we did in no time and then we started looking for our new home we had Lorne driving from Brampton to Orangeville to Erin until we found our dream home in Bolton. Lorne was a pleasure to work with and through it all Lorne became more then our real estate agent, he became a friend. Lorne was highly recommended to me and now I know why. Thank you, Lorne, for everything you did for our family. Jamie Andrews & Crystal McBain - 77-45 Hansen Rd, N, Brampton

Lorne, There are not enough words to express the gratitude that my sister and I have for helping us sell our family home so quickly and seamlessly. This time was extremely difficult for us, but you helped us out so professionally, with deep care and concern for our best interest.  Everyone should have this ease of selling their home, and they will, if they use you as an agent.  I would highly recommend you. We cannot thank you enough for what you have done for our family. Heather Leonard & Anne-Marie Parsons - 104 Brookland Dr, Brampton

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 

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 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

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
