Heartfelt Words from Those I’ve Helped
An amazing professional to work with! Knowledgeable in all facets of real estate: residential, commercial and precon! Nadia has a strong finance background which makes her versed in the big picture with each person and transaction! And a genuine person to talk to!
I’ve bought and sold property in the GTA/Canada for years with Nadia. She has been a great help in finding and selling my properties. She listens to my needs as a buyer/seller and made all my transactions smooth. She was efficient and knows how to get things done! When I decided to buy property in Costa Rica she connected me with Amer. He found a great opportunity for me to invest internationally. He has great connections, and listened to my needs regarding a new construction property with a builder I can trust. Thank you to both of them. I believe working as a team got the job done. I would highly recommend both of them for all your Real Estate needs. Cheers!
I've had the pleasure of briefly working alongside Nadia at Scotiabank years ago. We crossed paths again recently when I sought a realtor to help me find my first home. Nadia exudes professionalism and brings financial knowledge from the banking world to help make someone like me WAY more comfortable in making such a big decision emotionally and financially. Nadia was always available, transparent, and most importantly, was able to take any new or foreign concepts and distill it into something simple and digestible. I always appreciated that she could arm me with different perspectives through her multi-faceted experience (vs. just a real estate industry perspective). Highly recommend her, especially if you're a first timer like me!
As a fellow Realtor, I can definitely say Nadia is an awesome agent! She worked very hard for her clients and it was a pleasure to work with her!
She was helpful in answering all our questions & giving us the info needed to make us feel comfortable with the sale of our home. I recommend Nadia to meet all of your needs!
Nadia recently assisted me with a residential property requirement I had in Liberty Village. Not only was she very helpful and efficient, but her extensive experience shone through. Thank you Nadia for your help. What a pleasure it was dealing with you.
Nadia made the process of selling my investment home easy. She priced to sell and we had multiple offers. I was able to make more on the sale then I was expecting. She was also able to explain possible tax implications and referred me back to my accountant to get the professional advice I needed.
Beyond her exemplary professional skills, Nadia’s warmth and genuine concern for my family’s well-being were evident throughout our interactions. She made us feel valued and supported, which was incredibly reassuring during such an important decision-making process.
Me and my wife were thrilled with the dedication and service she provided. Nadia was very flexible with our schedule to get the showings, and we did it in the more efficient way. Overall, my wife and me are recommending Nadia to our friends. Next time we decide to move-Nadia would be our first call!
