What Are Our Toronto Clients Are Saying…

Zulfikar Mohamed

This was my first time selling a home in over 25 years—and my first time ever in Ontario—so I truly appreciated how Susan and Meliza guided me through the process. The checklists, timelines, and advice they provided made things clear and manageable, even for someone like me who prefers to take time to process and think things through. I’m a private person, so opening my home to strangers wasn’t easy, but I also wanted to put my best foot forward, and the staging, photography, and brochures were beautifully done.

What really stood out was the teamwork—we worked together every step of the way, and I never felt alone. My biggest concern wasn’t selling the home, it was the work I’d need to do to get ready, but their recommendations (like moving companies and handymen) made it all much easier.

Their experience really shows. On the buying side, we viewed several properties before finding the one that felt right. While it’s smaller than my last home, the view of the water—something I deeply missed since I was born on an island—makes it feel spacious and just right. Thanks to you and your team for your professionalism and support.

“As we settle into our new home, I cannot believe it’s been a year now since we met with Susan and Jessica to discuss both the selling of our condo at the time, and then the buying of a new house. The process was tiring, emotional and LONG for us. But the STG have the greatest professionalism and standards that are beyond compare. We felt so taken care of, their patience with us was amazing, and their kindness went further than I think they even realize. They’re all incredibly smart and even more hard working. We made Néémie travel everywhere in Toronto, and she was such a pleasure to work with, always had a smile on her face, and really listened to what we were looking for. Working with Jessica, Néémie, Susan and Kinnaly was an experience we will never forget, in the best way possible. I highly, highly recommend you work with this group , you will have no regrets. Thank you STG.”

I have been working with the Susan Taylor Group for a few years with my rental property and they have represented several family members with the sale and purchase of their homes. I have appreciated their insight and professionalism when it comes to showing the property and renting it successfully. Jessica was wonderful dealing with perspective renters and completing the application process. Jessica ensured a smooth transition with the new tenants. It was a great comfort to me to know she had things well in hand. Jessica also assisted in arranging for some handy work to be done so that the property was ready. It was a pleasure working with her!

Thank you, Susan Taylor Group!

My husband and I just got our first home with Meliza! She has been so amazing to work with! She was so patient with us and she was very honest and transparent and gave great advice/tips/information regarding all the places we viewed. She helped to point out things that we didn’t notice at the viewings that would help us to determine our offers- she noticed things like cracks in the walls or water damage and alerted us to them during the viewings. She booked showings for every place that we wanted to see and she researched all of the listings and provided us with great detailed notes and she was very quick to reply! She didn’t mind going all over the Toronto and GTA areas to show us the places we wanted to see. It was such a pleasure to work with her! We highly recommend her! If you want an honest realtor that will look out for your best interests and listen to what you want, go with Meliza! 🙂

It’s an absolute pleasure to know Meliza and leverage her expertise as a Realtor. She truly understands the customer’s needs and curates her search in accordance. I was looking to rent my first condo in North York and little did I know about the market out there. Luckily, I connected with Meliza (Susan Taylor Group, Remax Prime Properties) through an online site and we kicked it off from there. Not only did she demonstrate extreme patience in answering all my queries, she also used her wealth of knowledge to guide me as to what would work best for my situation. What I appreciated the most was that she was extremely professional, approachable, super well informed and was polite, friendly and empathetic. During the entire process, she ensured the documents were correctly organized and shared well in time. She has a really good understanding of the local market and I cannot wait to work with her again on future projects.

Overall, I was very pleased with the service that Susan and her team provided while working to sell my mother’s house at 35 Eastlea Cres. Their customer service was excellent from beginning to end, and I always felt as though they were keeping me well informed of anything that was happening or going to happen, throughout the entire process from listing to the sale of the house. They were also always available when I needed more information and took the time to answer all of my questions.

My biggest fear was that the house would be on the market for a long time, and would not sell at price we would be happy with. Susan and her team were wonderful at advertising the listing, and worked hard to ensure that the viewings were being scheduled consistently. Susan and I kept in close contact about the feedback and potential buyers, and she was very helpful in explaining and keeping me informed about the current market.

The result of working with Susan and her team to sell my mother’s house was that they were very well organized and took care of all of the details so that we didn’t have too. They kept me informed and ensured my mother and I were happy with everything they did to clean, prep and stage the house, listing the house (including the list price), etc. Having the team take care of the process from beginning to end was so helpful, it allowed me more time to concentrate on moving my mother into a retirement home and I’m very grateful for that.

Not only did we sell our first home, but we also sold the “family” home that my husband grew up in, so this was a very personal experience for us. Susan completely understood what we were feeling, and helped us set realistic goals while empathizing with our emotional connection to the house. She was so responsive and collaborative, keeping us on track with our checklist of action items and updating us frequently about other real estate activity within our area. We really were one team, and this type of support was exactly what we needed to navigate the selling process.
