I would like to know about some good agents to get a house in Toronto. I am looking for a house for 4 people. Me, my husband and my 2 children. I have already contacted a real estate agent from Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd in Mississauga http://www.royallepagemississauga.ca/. They are yet to call me back. Is anyone familiar with them? :| I would like to know few more agents who can get me a house in Toronto.

Hi FaziFaizal: I used to live in Dubai and then repatriated to Toronto where I work as an administrator for a real estate agent couple. It's important to find an agent who knows the areas you're interested in and who is experienced and successful. The 80/20 rule really does apply here, where 20% of the licensed agents do 80% of the business. So be sure to ask how long they have worked in Toronto and how many homes they sell in a year. The good news is that rules and ethics are strictly enforced by the governing body RECO and TREB, the local real estate board (check out their websites) . It would be inappropriate for me to recommend the people I work for on EW, and you may not be interested in the areas they work in anyway, but I think it's OK for me to recommend a company through which we do receive referrals from time to time https://agentpronto.com/. Also you should know that the seller pays all real estate commission in Ontario. As a buyer you will have to pay your legal fees and Land Transfer Tax. Your agent, once you find one, will be able to explain everything and recommend a lawyer if you don't have one. Good luck
