Thank you Michael!

You were the best agent we ever could have hoped for – thoroughly professional, a calming presence, always had time for us no matter what the question, and a friend on top of it all! We’re so happy with how this all worked out!

Michael it is such a pleasure to know you and to have been through so many rites of passage with you. We’ve been each other’s “first” a few times! Lovely to be with someone with so much integrity and a great sense of humour. Thank you so much for working so hard on our behalf at Greenwood in ’04 and ’09. We look forward to welcoming you and your family to “Cedar Bridge” for years to come.

Michael helped my wife and I buy a home this fall, and from start to finish (and beyond), he was a real pleasure to work with. We moved back to Toronto from San Francisco, and even before we arrived, Michael got to know us by phone and email and started sending us suitable listings.

Once we arrived, he drove us to many properties, encouraging us to get our feet wet. There was never any pressure tactics or dire warnings. As first-time buyers, we had a million questions and concerns, so it was helpful that Michael also comes armed with a lot of knowledge about home renovations, inspections and all of the potential problems to look for.

Throughout the process, he really got to know us and made great recommendations on what he thought would suit us best. He also connected us with a great mortgage broker as well as a property lawyer, who both gave us excellent service. And when we finally closed the deal, Michael helped negotiate our offer below listing price, while keeping expectations in check.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Michael to other people looking to buy a house -- he's friendly, cheerful, patient and hard-working.

Michael Wacholtz was our real estate agent on two purchases and one sale and there are really no adequate words to describe Michael's professionalism, enthusiasm and dedication.

He worked tirelessly to help us find a house when we first moved to Toronto and secured one for us when we were in competition with another buyer. He was assertive and firm and his sharpness prevented us from losing the house.

When it came time to sell this house and move to something a little bigger, he was instrumental in getting the house ready for sale, even helping us move furniture, prepare for the open house and make small repairs. His amazing skills and vision helped us realize a huge profit on our house and it sold for well above asking.

When we purchased our new house, he spent months driving around with us looking at homes. He was always positive and never grew weary of our persnickety demands. He was always there when we needed him to show us a house we wanted to see and he worked hard at getting our house - drawing up several offers (we couldn't be there for the offer night) and calling with the good news.

Michael is a skilled professional. He's personable and smart and knows the market and his clients. We would never consider buying a house without Michael by our side.

Shervin and I would like to take the time to recognize and thank you for representing us in the purchase of our house. As this is our first house, we didn’t quite know what we were getting into and the whole process was quite intimidating and nerve-wracking. Not only did you help us through the whole purchasing process, but also because of your support and attention you actually made it a wonderful experience. I have spoken with a lot of people who have described horror stories while purchasing their first home, and our experience was seamless and actually enjoyable. We never at any time felt pressured into buying or into going beyond the limits that we had set for ourselves, even though you were acting as a dual agent and also representing the seller. We truly felt through the whole experience that you were sincere, loyal and supportive. We always knew that you had out best interest in mind.

Not only do we love our house, but we also have a great memory of the purchase experience. If we ever decide to sell or buy again, you will definitely be our first choice in agent. In addition, if ever you have a potential client, we would be more than happy to take the time out to speak to them and assure them that they would be lucky to be represented by you.

Thanks again for everything you have done for us.
