 " I had my Townhouse previously listed for 3 months without selling it until .....I  met Kathy Markoff.  She did so much more. She showed me information on many other units that had sold as well as other townhouses that were on the market at the time. She made a few suggestions on what  needed to be improved to get top dollar for my home when we relisted. While I was busy working she ensured that the contractors finished making improvements on time and within budget . These small changes really improved visits by other buyers wanting to come see my home. I had more visitors in 1 weekend than I had for the whole time it was previously listed. I sold quickly when I listed it with Kathy. I was very pleased with this experience of selling my townhouse with Kathy Markoff. ~Romulo Tredanio

 

 

"When we first met with Kathy Markoff, she was very thorough explaining to us how the buying process worked with a real estate agent. We did not know that we did not have to pay for her services to find us a home! We knew that after speaking with her we wanted ; a ravine lot in the city, something that had no work required preferably renovated, and with a basement apartment. Over a short period of time we visited dozens of houses within the area we wanted to buy.  She booked and attended all of these visits and she continually provided many options that met our criteria. She encouraged us to visit as many properties as possible .She explained  to us that with every visit we would learn more about what we liked and didn’t like, so that when we found our perfect home we would just know it . We appreciated her dedication and the time spent with us while we searched. She was right . We found our dream home ! We ended up buying a house, ironically we went back to buy the one that was in the first group of houses she showed us when we first started looking but only after we searched for weeks going through them all. We finally narrowed it down to 2 places and Kathy helped us review our short list of houses factoring in all closing costs which helped us solidify our final decision. She negotiated for us and we bought our dream home below the listed price.- It was worth the wait" ~ Hermoso Family  

 

"We are so happy that we partnered with Kathy Markoff to sell our home. One major difference with Kathy as an agent she educated us and provided ideas and options making us feel comfortable since we were not familiar with all the details involved in selling nor were we aware of the legal paperwork involved. She is extremely knowledgeable and very patient. Before listing our property with Kathy, she made recommendations on what we should do to get the most money. She helped us manage to our budget tracking everything in a spreadsheet that she created for us to stay on plan. Despite being a very competitive market also busy time of year to sell , everything she suggested worked! We sold quickly at asking price. She created a plan to sell, achieved timelines, executed her Marketing plan exactly as she promised. She also helped us find handymen and a lawyer. We have never seen anyone work as fast and as hard as she did and we had two prior agents to compare her to in our previous attempts to sell. ~Nelson & Placy

 

 

 

 

 

"My wife and I have had the great pleasure of selling our home in Brampton for a record margin and purchasing our dream home on the lake for way less than market value. This was all possible with the help and working of Kathy Markoff. Kathy is extremely knowledgeable and comes with a high level of marketing expertise coupled with thoroughness and undying work ethic. We’re planning on buying an additional property soon. I couldn’t imagine calling anyone else to help us with it. Kathy is extremely professional, considerate and quite a classy agent to have in our corner. People please don’t hesitate to use her. She was recommended to us and I’m really glad we listened. Agent for life. Thanks Kathy! You absolutely Rock! "~Chad and Janice Semi Detached Listed and Sold at asking price 

 

 

 

 

"Let me first point out that our house was listed with an agent last year for 6 months and did not sell! We decided that we would sell it ourselves this year and along came Kathy Markoff and her motivated clients. Both my wife and I could not have been more impressed by her professional approach and her accommodating attitude to our situation and her clients. She was well prepared and motivated about our property, although she had never seen it until she arrived to show it. She got it done and that to us meant everything. She is honest and trustworthy with all the contractual paperwork with selling or buying a house. Thanks again Kathy for a JOB WELL DONE!"~Lynda and Rod
