Established in 2007, we don’t just talk the talk – we’ve also walked it!

(but also talk about it)

We’ve personally experienced (almost) every type of real estate transaction one could go through. We’ve bought the brand-new condo, sold the investment property, and even renovated the century-old home.  The lessons we’ve learned along the way, add to the value we bring to your real estate experience. Our job is to be there for you, every step of the way… but as important as it is to walk it – we wanted to go a step above and also talk about it.

Enter The Toronto Livings Real Estate Podcast.  Whether you’re a long-time Torontonian looking to learn more about your city, or, a newcomer thinking of making a move to the city, the Toronto Livings Real Estate Podcast is your ultimate guide to all things Toronto. With Mark and Joey at the helm, you’ll discover hidden gems, untold stories, and a newfound appreciation for the magic that makes Toronto what it is.

TESTIMONIALS

A Few Words From Our Clients

“My partner and I were first time homer buyers and Mark Savel helped us every step of the way with a great sense of humour and an assurance that we would be able to find our dream condo - and we did! He has an abundance of knowledge and knows exactly what and how to look when surveying a potential property. Whenever we had additional questions, he was a short text or phone call away, and always made sure we were comfortable and confident in the next steps we made. I think we truly lucked out by being able to work with Mark and will aways appreciate his dedication to our dream!”

He understands the market and went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable throughout the process. Thanks to him we have now a wonderful place to live. We are very grateful and would recommend him without reservation!”

Gabriela K.Tenant

“My partner and I had a wonderful experience working with Mark. Mark is incredibly knowledgeable, works with urgency, and overall is a pleasure to work with. When we went to visit houses, he was very thorough in checking things we wouldn't have thought to look at, and that has a huge asset for us. In a competitive market, one could expect a stressful experience, and for us it wasn't - Mark was patient, never pushy, and very good at setting expectations in terms of timelines and expected investment. We would highly recommend working with Mark. Beyond being great at his job, he is also super genuine, likeable and trustworthy.
You can't go wrong with Mark.”
