We would like to give a big shout out to Matt Shapiro! Matt helped us find the most amazing tenants…read morefor our beloved home in Toronto and we could not be happier. We currently live out of country so it was very important for us to find the right fit for this situation. It can be very scary entrusting your home with people you don't know, but we feel very pleased with the tenants Matt helped us find and where we are at with our rental. From coaching us with prep before hitting the market, to managing the rental process, and even doing a mid-lease follow up to make sure everything was going well, we would totally recommend Matt and would definitely love to continue working with him! Also a big loving shout out to Brel themselves - Mel & Brendan - 2 incredible people!! Thank you for all the love, fun, & guidance over the years, we adore you both and wish you and your team nothing but the best!

We just sold our home through BREL and we could not have been happier!…read more We had some bad experiences in the past with agents when selling our previous homes, so we did a LOT of research to find the right agent to sell this one. After interviewing 4 agents, we went with Lisa Bednarski and BREL and we are so glad we did. Lisa's enthusiasm, positive attitude, and excitement at the challenge was a refreshing change. She was patient with us when we needed reassuring, and got us through all the steps to SOLD. In 3 days after listing! Kiel, the BREL stager did an amazing job making our home look like it was in a magazine! I recommend BREL for anyone buying, or selling. In this day and age, most real estate agents are like dinosaurs, but not BREL, they are showing the rest how it should be done in the digital age, and with all the marketing tools available, not just an MLS listing. Do your research and you will see why so many of BREL's clients are singing their praises... they are just that great. Thank you Lisa Bednarski, this Lisa is grateful we found you!

Yep, we are still with CJ!! She really knows her stuff and is v personable. What could be better?read more

He is friendly, knowledgable, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure the deal goes smoothly.

We worked with Adrienne for our first home purchase and we got the house of our dreams! Once we…read morefound the right place, viewing, bidding and closing on our home happened SO quickly and was actually really stress-free (at least for us!). This is a testament to Adrienne's incredible work ethic and dedication, as well as her knowledge of the market and strong communication skills. As a buyer, she helped us navigate the complexities of what was a competitive sellers market, guiding us to understand how to balance the three factors of location, style of home and budget. Once we zeroed in on our must-haves and nice-to-haves, she set us up with alerts that matched our criteria. When a listing we loved in our ideal neighbourhood in Toronto came up, she made sure we were the first to see it within just a few hours of it being on the market. Adrienne helped us interpret the home inspection so we knew what we were getting into. She also knew how to read the situation and was able to confirm the sellers wanted a quick close. Having Adrienne as our real estate agent gave us an advantage and thanks to her market prowess we were able to put in a strong offer that was fair value for the sellers while still well within our budget. I'm still impressed by how quickly she pulled together our offer - we spoke with her late in the evening after seeing the house and we woke up at 5am to everything from her awaiting our signature! Because we had put in a strong offer so quickly, the sellers were happy to work with us, and quickly cancelled the other showings they had lined up and we were thrilled to have avoided a bidding war! She also provided contacts for a lawyer to help us close and made sure we felt supported every step of the closing process. We couldn't be happier with our new home and we're grateful to have had an amazing powerhouse like Adrienne Kennedy on our side to make this possible!

We wanted a realtor who knew the area well, could help us meet our housing needs and who could help us navigate the stressful process of buying and selling. Graham met all of these needs.

Graham was always available for us when we needed it and answered our million+ questions.

[Update in response to business reply:] I want to clarify…read morethat I never asked Ben to lie or misrepresent anything (I have text correspondence to prove it). I simply requested discretion when presenting the lease application--something I later confirmed with another licensed real estate agent is entirely standard and ethical in this industry. Ben's reply avoids the core issue, which is that he disclosed private information against my clear instructions and responded with hostility and abusive language when I addressed it. Notably, in his response, he does not deny using the language I described--something that should give any prospective client, especially women, serious pause before deciding to work with him. Now that I've seen how he chooses to handle client concerns, it's clear he was never acting in my best interest. In hindsight, I'm relieved I never purchased a property through him--because the financial and emotional consequences would have been far greater. ------------------------------------------------- [Review update:] I had previously written a positive review for Ben Fenlon based on an experience in 2022, but I now feel obligated to update it after a recent encounter that was deeply unprofessional and unacceptable. When I attempted to lease a unit, Ben disregarded my clear instructions and disclosed private information to the listing agent without my consent--jeopardizing the deal and violating my trust. When I addressed this, he became aggressive and disrespectful. He raised his voice, used vulgar language, and told me that if I was going to "act bitchy," then the lease "wasn't worth his time" because the commission "wasn't high enough." I had asked Ben to follow a common and fully ethical approach, and to exercise discretion when presenting the application. I expected him, as my agent, to handle the process strategically and professionally, without disclosing unnecessary personal information that could weaken my position. Instead, he ignored my instructions, dismissed my concerns, and treated me with outright disrespect when I raised them. His conduct was not only unprofessional, but also at odds with the duty of care, loyalty, and discretion expected of a registered real estate professional under RECO's Code of Ethics. I can no longer recommend Ben's services under any circumstances.
