"It all started when Clarence handed me his magnetic business card while I was at work. And now, it's been 10 years since we worked together to find our first Canadian home. This time, we had him again as our professional agent from our recently sold house and purchased our dream home. Clarence helped us to show how to market our house to get it ready, to get us the most value, and prioritize which efforts would give us the greatest return. Among those services he provided to us, was an amazing 360 virtual tour of our house, tips and advice from an exceptional stager, who visited us in order to present our house beautifully. And true enough, we received glowing reviews from people, who came by to our open house. Clarence even provided us a comfortable place to stay to ensure everything works well for my ailing Mom, while having his open house for two consecutive days. Indeed, he truly cared for his clients and treated us like his own. Selling our house was a stressful time for us, as it was a buyer’s market at that time. That being said, we were doubting to get our expected price when the real estate "bubble" started to deflate before we listed ours in the market. However, Clarence was realistic about the pricing for both selling our house and buying a home. He helped us to stay calm, on track, and prayed with us to get our dream house. We couldn’t believe that our house was sold in only 9 days and for over-asking price! He knew what would work to meet our needs and objective. He was always there for any type of concerns and decisions we had if we were uncertain of what to do. He was with us every step of the way. Clarence proved to be hardworking, informative, prompt and generous. We are very grateful for his assistance and perspective that led us to trust and confide in him. By the way, I love the sign in front of our yard, SOLD OVER ASKING, despite of the transition in the market. His guidance has paid off. Best decision to hire Clarence! Clarence, we simply want you to know that we appreciate all the hard work you have done, your efforts are tireless and do not go unnoticed. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts, all the best! "

"This year (2014), our dream of owning our very first own Tridel condo came true because of Clarence's help. We also got our first SUV (but that's another story), thanks to Clarence! After searching for a few properties, we put an offer, and closed the deal in 30 days. My kids and I are enjoying the convenience and amenities of our building. Without Clarence, these dreams would have never happened. He is definitely highly recommended."

"Due to our lending institution's oversight, our closing was delayed. Even if it was stressful, Clarence took control of the situation and ensured that we get the keys to our Georgina home as soon as possible. Thanks to Clarence, we are now enjoying the lake nearby and nature's beauty."

"Clarence helped me own my rental investment condo in Toronto back in 2007. And in Summer 2014, he helped me again with the purchase of my Mississauga townhome. His strong negotiating skills were highly beneficial in getting me a great deal. He always had my best interests at heart from start to finish. Thank you and more power to you, Clarence!"

"We feel blessed to have Clarence as our Realtor®. Our rental condo has been providing extra income for us since 2010. He also has been managing the monthly rent and future repairs, if any, for our tenants' enjoyment of our property."

"Thanks to Clarence, we were able to purchase an investment property on Yonge and Sheppard, where prices have been skyrocketing non-stop. We're so happy with our Return On Investment that we intend to get another one soon."

"Clarence, I really think that in life, if one is lucky, he/she will meet people like you. We always need people to believe in us and to support us. And for that, I say thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I don't have many people like that but happy to count you as one of them."

"Since I am (Ryan) accustomed to dealing with mortgages and Agreements for Purchase and Sales on a daily basis, I assumed that my job had adequately prepared me for the purchase of my family's first home. However, it wasn't until Zelinda, my beloved wife, and I had to sign our very own name on the contract that reality hit home, and questions flooded our minds. And that was when the ease and comfort of choosing Clarence as our agent paid off. Zelinda and I felt very comfortable with Clarence, he communicated well with us throughout the entire process, which was very important to us. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and was there to help until the very end. He encouraged us to use him as a buffer when everything started coming our way and had the answers or knew where to find them. You won't regret using Clarence, and if we were to sell, at least we know that we won't have to look very far for an agent! Clarence is our guy!"

"We met Clarence thru a friend (in fact, one of his past clients). All we can say is that meeting him is indeed a blessing for the entire family. He walked in to us NOT TO SELL to us but sincerely to HELP us by taking his time to discuss how to acquire our very first home in Canada. He displayed an extraordinary devotion to us being his client as if he is really part of the family. We have a big family but he knew all the family members by names, as if he was a long-lost relative of ours. He even prayed with us to get the best for my family, indeed it was an awesome answered prayer. I have met several personalities in the world of real estate, from back home and here in Ontario. So far, we have not encountered any person like Clarence, who puts his heart not on his being an agent, but the way he puts himself in the shoes of the buyer/client. At the closing of the transaction, he was even more excited and happier as if he was really part of our family. He was so thrilled to see my entire family make our first leap into the doorstep of our dream home. Thank you so much, Clarence. May you likewise extend the blessings cast upon you to your other prospective clients!"

"Moving at any age is stressful, but imagine what it is like for an elderly person forced to leave his cherished home of 35 years because of ailing health? This was the case for my 90-year old father, who had lost our beloved mom just years before, and who was now going to have to move to a retirement residence, something he swore he would never do.
Clarence was with my dad every step of the way, from listening intently to all of my dad's concerns and responding with comforting, well-informed assurances, to helping us prepare my father's lovely, old-Ontario-red-brick home for viewings, to guiding us through multiple offers, and ultimately to sealing the deal that allowed my dad to sleep happily that night. In fact, Clarence managed to make the entire process fun! I will never forget my dad lifting a glass of champagne - champagne provided by Clarence, I might add - to say, "What an adrenalin rush! I feel like a kid again. I haven't had this much fun in a long time!" Later, in private to me, my dad added: "That Clarence is a class act!"
Thank you, Clarence, for helping my dad make a smooth transition to his final chapter in life. We will never forget your contribution during the months leading up to-and-after this all important move."

We wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for such a wonderful job on the recent sale of our property. You literally did it in 5 days!
Your high level of service has met and exceeded our expectations. You were courteous, knowledgeable, professional, and a great negotiator, which resulted in the outstanding sale of our property.
Thanks again for such a job well done. We wish you many more successes, and we will definitely refer you to any of our friends, colleagues and relatives looking to buy or sell real estate."
