CLIENT REVIEWS

We have worked with Andre on two occasions and found that his in-depth knowledge of the real estate profession, market and financial acumen, enabled him to give us absolutely outstanding service. We highly recommend Andre to provide you with a full range of value added real estate services, and guarantee that you will be completely satisfied. - Martin & Jeanette Scholtz, Oakville

I have to give Andre Smit high praise as a real estate agent.  He sold my house in record time and found me the perfect house which suited all my requirements.  My situation was a difficult one but Andre forged ahead in an exemplary manner making sure everything was properly carried out and was always there to reassure me.  He made time for anything that arose and completed the whole process in a manner that only a highly skilled agent could achieve.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart Andre for going above and beyond what the job required.

Last summer I had the opportunity to meet André Smit, when I enlisted him to sell my home. He kept me up to date on all the details of selling my home. He was always punctual and gave his honest opinion, whenever I asked him any questions. After the sale of my home, our business relationship did not end. He had promised me from the beginning, that once my house was sold, he would help me look for a new home to move in to. He kept that promise. He took me to see several properties, picking me up at my home. He did all the negotiations for my new home.

Selling your home is mentally and emotionally exhausting, and André took a lot of the burden from me, by handling small or large details. I don't think I would have gotten through the whole process without his help. He was always there for me. I highly recommend him for his professional attitude, experience and loyalty. He also has a great sense of humor! - Nancy Neill, Oakville

We were privileged to use André’s services to successfully sell our house and buy a condo, the latter a new experience for us. This process spanned over a period of about two years; at first in a declining sellers’ market and then in the trying time of the Covid lockdown.

He lives out his philosophy that the client is not just a number. Any question on our part was addressed thoroughly, patiently and with honesty, always as soon as possible. We never doubted his integrity, where he would strive to find the best outcome for us, but never at the expense of the party on the other side of the table. He showed true character in 2018, when we were unable to sell the house in a falling market, by not pressuring us to sell at a reduced, undervalued amount. We certainly benefited from his advice to perhaps withdraw the house from the market at that time and wait out the uncertainty.

He showed continuous interest in a successful outcome for us, from the very beginning to weeks after completion of the move. For example, where we had questions not related to the property transaction (e.g. heat pump noise in the condo), he went out of his way to propose alternative approaches to find the answers and pointing us to potential resources.

He won our confidence early in the journey, with his calm and assertive demeanour, which is rooted in a varied business career and profound knowledge of the real estate industry.

We would not hesitate to recommend André to anyone who would consider making use of his services.

This is the first time we have placed a home on the market in Ontario, and from the beginning we received careful and detailed guidance from André.  At no time did we experience any undue pressure.  When it came to setting a price, we independently arrived at the same figure as he, and this proved to be so attractive that we sold within a day of André's board going up. He also went out of his way to help us meet practical needs, such as disposing of unwanted items as we prepared for an international move. From our initial conversation to the final legal closing, Andre achieved a totally comfortable and happy time for us. - Elizabeth & David Cuthbert, Oakville.

I would definitely recommend André Smit to anyone looking to sell or buy a home. André recently helped us sell our family home. Our home had a few issues and we thought it might take a while to find the perfect buyer. André listened to our concerns and objectives and came up with a plan to get as many people looking at it as possible in the shortest amount of time. We had an offer quite soon after our second open house. We were impressed by André's contract review and negotiation abilities. He is an expert in maneuvering through the myriad of situations that can arise during the selling process and finding amiable solutions. He also uses the latest technology available which made the whole process easy and seamless. We were actually on vacation when the offer came in and were able to sign back the required documents over the internet. At the same time, he offers a very personal touch especially during open houses insuring potential buyers are aware of the home and neighbourhood advantages. Thanks André
