Kerri-Ann and Kevin were great to work with. They helped us figure out where we wanted to live in the Collingwood region by looking at various housing options and areas. The team was patient with us as we made our decision and viewed many houses until we decided to finally make an offer on the right house for our family. They helped us through the negotiations/ and post-sale process. We would work with this team again.

Kerri-Ann and Kevin really went above and beyond to help us get our chalet sold in a challenging market. We had a tricky situation trying to list and sell while our property was occupied by tenants. Still, Kerri-Ann and Kevin were able to use their creativity and strong people skills to work around that and keep everyone happy. Their attention to detail and support leading up to closing were unmatched. As a team, they provide services that we couldn’t have found with an independent Realtor. Their knowledge of market conditions as well as strategy got us multiple offers in this market. We would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone looking for an unparalleled real estate representation.

Carol and I have very specific tastes. Some might call us challenging clients! Kevin spent a lot of time getting to know exactly what we were looking for in a home and a neighbourhood. While concessions are always made, we couldn’t believe that he found the perfect, unique home we were looking for, in our neighbourhood of choice, and helped us navigate multiple offers to end up being able to call it home. While looking for a home, I was someone looking at MLS listings daily and told Kevin it was unlikely he’d find something I hadn’t seen. Well, full credit because he found this extremely unique property. Our friends come by and say, “This is so you guys!” So as our buying agent, there was literally no more he could have done. To top it off, he then sold our now-former home in under two weeks. Kevin will work with you and for you. We can’t recommend him enough.

“This was our first time selling a house. Kerri-Ann did an amazing job guiding us through the whole process. By the time the house came to market, she had already earned more than her fee. Her pre-sale due diligence discovered what prior real estate agents and lawyers missed. Crucial deed descriptions which could have collapsed our sale on closing! Further, she discovered open permits from before our time! Her pre-sale attention to detail (including going to city hall with me!), as well as a home inspection, meant we had time to deal with any pieces that could potentially affect the sale. Not only did she discover these crucial errors from the previous agents but she also helped us fix them. Kerri-Ann did a fantastic job guiding the stager and making sure all the details of the house, inside and out, were perfect. In conjunction with the photographer, Kerri-Ann’s team created gorgeous images and social media presence which gave our property 10,000+ online views in less than 5 days. Our house was unique, to begin with, but her work really made all the beauty shine through. On offer night, we gained a whole new level of respect. She was respectful and forthright and managed all parties perfectly. She knew exactly how to push, in a kind but firm manner. We set a new sales record for our neighborhood. Not only were we happy with the price, but also with the details of the process. We couldn’t recommend Kerri-Ann enough and we’ve already recommended her to our clients and friends. Anyone looking in the Collingwood, Blue Mountains, or Thornbury area should seriously consider using Kerri-Ann!”

Kevin was essential for helping me find my dream place in Toronto.

“Kerri-Ann played such an instrumental role in assisting me with my condo purchase, especially during a challenging market and with me being on a time crunch. Not only did she do all of her research, but she was on top of any conditions that could stand in my way during an offer situation. I saw the perfect condo on a Friday, and I made an offer on the following Sunday. During the weekend, Kerri-Ann leveraged her contacts to get the status certificate reviewed and asked me all of the right questions to ensure that financially, I was set up for this offer without any conditions (basically a necessity in today’s market). With this diligence over the weekend and some other negotiating tactics, although I wasn’t the highest bidder, I was the selected offer. I was elated when Kerri-Ann phoned to tell me that I had gotten the condo. It really pays to have the right agent supporting you in your home search, someone with the right experience and skill set who can anticipate what’s next and negotiate in your best interest. I am so grateful for Kerry-Ann’s guidance in my situation, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch agent.”

My wife and I were both pleased with Kevin’s level of professionalism when he recently sold our existing home and helped us to find a new home. For the sale, Kevin’s recommendation of staging left us somewhat reluctant as we had never experienced this before. However, how wrong we were. Kevin’s complimentary staging services transformed our home to something that we could never have imagined. With relatively little work on our part and their design team’s expertise, the home looked brighter, bigger and completely modernized.It sold in less than a week. For the purchase of our new home Kevin left no stone unturned. Although we did a lot of searching online ourselves, Kevin was able to find even more properties for us to see. With this help we were actually able to purchase our new home just a few days after the sale of our old home. Kevin then succeeded in helping us to overcome the myriad of obstacles ever present in the home sale and purchase processes. Our thanks to Kevin in helping to make this whole move as smooth as possible.”

“I absolutely loved working with Kerri-Ann. She helped me find my investment vacation property in Collingwood/Blue Mountains. She immediately set me up with an automatic email listing notification. This meant I could view the property matches the moment they were listed! With such a hot market I knew I would have to act quickly. I have a demanding job, busy kids and we don’t live in Collingwood. I knew I needed to align with an agent who would be able and willing to view a property within hours of the listing. Kerri -Ann delivered. When this property came up, Kerri-Ann provided a virtual showing. After I was certain this was the one, we had another video call from the property to answer all my questions. We quickly moved on to an offer the next day. Sure enough by that time, there was another offer registered! I’m happy to say the sellers took my offer. After the sale, Kerri-Ann was very helpful. She answered all my closing questions and detailed the next steps. She also went to a purchaser’s visit on my behalf. She assisted with measurements and inspecting items I requested. She connected me with resources in Collingwood (i.e plumber, cleaning services, etc). She’s become a friend and valued partner. She continues to support me by sharing my Airbnb listing with her network. I highly recommend choosing Kerri-Ann as your agent to find your dream property.”

“Kevin did an excellent job of selling my home this year. Kevin made the process of selling my house as painless and worry-free as possible. He was knowledgeable, pro-active, and always readily accessible to address all of my questions and concerns. Without a doubt, Kevin made it possible for me to get the best sales price for my home as well as a smooth closure. I would recommend him highly for his professionalism, expert knowledge of the local markets, attention to detail, and all-around pleasant demeanour. If it ever comes time to buy or sell in Toronto again, Kevin will be the first, last and only real estate agent that I would call!”

Kerri-Ann was instrumental in securing our first condo, but more importantly, when it came time to sell it, she got us the best price to date in our building. She had a fail-proof method that we followed that took us step by step through the buying & selling process. When we decided the next step for our growing family was Hamilton, we were thrilled when she said she could assist us in that market too!. We learned that in addition to belonging to the Toronto Real Estate Board, she had joined the Southern Georgian Bay board that year. Her access was unparalleled. Within a month, we had secured our dream home and sold our Leslieville condo. Everything has come together for us, and we are so excited to watch our family grow in our new home. Thank you, Kerri-Ann; we were beyond amazing.””

“I had the pleasure of working with Kevin on the sale of my home and the purchase of a new home. Kevin was very knowledgeable about the market conditions and he stayed in touch throughout the entire transaction and was on top of every issue that came along, I was completely at ease. I will use Kevin’s services again and would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to buy or sell real estate in the Toronto area.”

“In less than 2 years, we made 2 big moves. We went from first-time buyers to first-time sellers (and buyers again!). We couldn’t have done it without Kerri-Ann. In this market, we knew we needed an agent with her finger on the pulse. Her extensive market knowledge, contacts, and ability to explain each step with patience and clarity made us confident in our decisions.
“Understanding a client’s needs, style and taste is part of what makes a great agent. We didn’t see hundreds of homes over 8months before we bought this one. We saw a handful. The properties were well vetted before we set out to see them. This made for a more focused approach. We didn’t waste valuable time “house-hunting”. Kerri-Ann knew where to direct our time and energy. This put us farther ahead than most. We are busy professionals with a son. Things get hectic. We appreciated KGB’s approach to the process. While the buying process can seem daunting at times. It’s worth it to align yourself with Kerri-Ann. She was excellent at honing in on our needs and understanding our personal tastes and lifestyle. To a tee. We are grateful to Kerri-Ann for her hard work and dedication to our real estate journey. We love our home.”

“Earlier this year, we decided to sell our beloved one-bedroom condo and purchase our first and “Forever” home. In less than a month we found our perfect home in our first choice neighbourhood. Kerri-Ann Brownlee is the only realtor we could trust to do the job. Buying an actual house for the first time is a big deal and a huge change to adjust to mentally and financially. Having a realtor like Kerri-Ann on your side made the entire process smooth, easy and fun. At the same time we decided to sell our one-bedroom condo which we loved and lived in for eight years. Selling a condo in today’s market, especially an oversaturated one like Toronto’s is intimidating, however we sold seamlessly and for a price we couldn’t refuse thanks to Kerri-Ann. Kerri-Ann is professional, diligent, efficient and an incredibly smart business woman. We wouldn’t trust our assets with anyone else and strongly recommend all future buyers and sellers to work with her. Kerri-Ann is one of the few remaining professionals who truly puts their client first no matter where she is or what she’s doing. Thanks Kerri-Ann for everything!”
