TESTIMONIALS

We first contacted the Thurston Olsen team a few years ago on a friend’s recommendation after months of house hunting turned up no results. Immediately we were impressed by Chris and Ford’s knowledge of the Leslieville neighbourhood, drive to deliver client satisfaction, and upbeat attitude. Just weeks later, Chris and Ford had helped us successfully purchase a great home. Fast forward a few years and we were back on the hunt for a home, eventually landing on a multi-unit property. The nature of the property made every aspect more complex, yet Chris & Ford were attentive and patient, always looking out for our best interests, and went above and beyond to make the transaction as seamless as possible.

Olivia and Matt, Larchmount Avenue

Working with Chris & Ford was the best thing we did for selling our house. The energy they brought to the process made our place stand out and helped turn a stressful situation into lots of fun. Their strategy and marketing directly translated to our bottom line. These guys are consummate professionals, giving us full confidence at every step. They take pride in their profession and are well connected within the industry. They provided sound advice, always making us feel that we were in control. Selling our home was our biggest financial transaction and Chris & Ford created the best possible outcome.

Erin and Chris, Brooklyn Avenue

As first time home buyers, you rely heavily on your realtor to guide you through the process. We’re fortunate to have found Ford and Chris to support us every step of the way. We had a very short timeframe within which we wanted to purchase. Ford and Chris got us exactly what we wanted on budget and within our time frame. They were responsive regardless of the time of day and went out of their way to explain the intricacies of the home buying process. For that reason, we’d absolutely recommend Ford and Chris to our friends and family.

I highly recommend using Thurston Olsen real estate group if you are selling or buying a home. I chose Chris and Ford as they specialize in the Leslieville area and my parents home required a buyer who was willing to renovate the home. They guided us through the process and were always available to answer our questions, provide advice and help us through the process.
Danielle, Bushell Avenue

Ford & Chris came highly recommended to me from a close friend – and boy, they didn’t disappoint. I had a discouraging experience with another real estate agent who really didn’t seem like they wanted to sell my house. These guys were the exact opposite. They put together a great listing with professional photography and detailed lists of improvements. Juggled our tenants schedules and requests and were able to show the property to many prospective buyers. Their communication with me, my tenants and the buyers was top notch. Daily updates, complicated negotiation of multiple peoples’ schedules – they handled it all with ease! Ultimately, our primary goal was achieved which was to sell the house for a good price. They did this brilliantly, and then even got us a little bit more!

I can’t praise Ford and Chris (the Thurston Olsen team) highly enough. They are dedicated, knowledgeable, hardworking. Ford and Chris do it all with panache and style while keeping it down to earth. Went above and beyond for us and brought in amazing results! So, after working with them to put our house on the market, we found ourselves wishing we could embark on another project with them right away. Further more, these guys are simply the best out there.

Excellent experience with Ford and Chris. They were on the ball, always available and very professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone!
Brook and Sam, Coady Avenue

I had a great experience working with Chris and Ford. I live in another province and was buying in Toronto. Chris and Ford were my eyes and did all of the home viewings and leg work. They made the process quite easy and I trusted them both to give me their honest opinion since I was unavailable to see properties myself. They did a great job and given my unusual situation went out of their way to make things happen. Needless to say I am very pleased to have worked with them.

Dianne Docherty, Gerrard Street East

As first time home buyers my husband and I were nervous, particular, and slow. It took us almost two years to finally purchase our first home and Chris and Ford patiently and expertly guided us through the crazy Toronto real estate market. They provided us with every detail we asked for and were always there at the drop of hat to go to an open house or private showing. We finally found our perfect home and our offer was skillfully negotiated and handled with the utmost professionalism during a global pandemic. We are so happy with our new home and couldn’t be more thankful to Chris and Ford.

Stefany and Nikola, Brooklyn Avenue

Purchasing your first home in the Toronto Market is not an simple task. Therefore, one we would not have ever accomplished without the expert help and Chris and Ford. They are exceedingly knowledgeable, hard-working, friendly, and most of all trustworthy. A trait we found to be lacking in most of their peers. They were always available to us in spite of our crazy schedules. So, having a terrific sense of humour is invaluable and especially welcome to help ease the tensions of the search. Without Chris and Ford’s tireless efforts we would not have been able to find our home, and get it for the best price. We couldn’t imagine the process without having Chis and Ford to guide us through. Definitely, won’t hesitate for a moment to work with them in the future. Also, we couldn’t possibly recommend them any more highly to help with the purchase of a property…really, truly.
