SARAH LEIB Reviews

<p>If there was "Amazing" in the scale above, I would have said "Amazing". Sarah has now helped us through a couple of negotiations. She always seems to have time for us, which is no small feat, as I am sure she is wildly busy. She never rushed us, or made us feel like we were anything less than her most important client. At times, our situation was disheartening, but Sarah never gave up hope for us, and was continually full of ideas to help the deal along. I can't say enough about how great it felt to have someone like Sarah in our corner, working for us.</p>

<p>Sarah was fantastic to work with. As a first time buyer, I was full of questions about the market, the process, risks, info about properties, and all the other information needed to find the right home.</p> <p>Sarah helped by giving me a full view of what was available on the market so that I could make an informed, confident decision. She worked diligently, was always prompt when responding and did everything and more on her end to help me find me the right deal, and get it completed. She was also friendly, honest, and I'd recommend her to anyone.</p>

<p>I am happy to have a home and can't wait until the Renos are done. Sarah was helpful, friendly and on-time.</p>

<p>Sarah embraces her role in helping you find the right place for you. She will never push a place that isn't right, and will even voice her opinion if she feels it's not right for you. Her end goal is helping you find a place that you will be happy with, emotionally, functionally and financially. If you are open and honest with your expectations, Sarah will help you find the place that is right for you.</p> <p>Sarah is very knowledgeable, and as a first time homebuyer, that was very important to me. I had done some research, but still felt very unsure about the whole process. Sarah removed all my doubt and made the whole process so much fun! As I had bought a brand new condo, she came with me to help pick my finishes and colours. As a single man, it was great to have a different point of view. Not only did she provide great decorating advice, but explained how certain choices may later affect resale value.</p> <p>When it came to the financial side of things, Sarah also helped me to assemble the rest of my team. Sarah recommended a great mortgage broker and lawyer who were both as open and helpful as Sarah herself. Between them all, I always felt like I had all the answers, and if I didn't someone was always there. Everyone was open, and each provided answers to questions I didn't even know to ask. I was never surprised by an issue coming up as everyone made sure I understood each step.</p> <p>When it came to communication, I couldn't ask for more. Sarah exceeded all my expectations. No one can be instantly available 24/7, but sometimes it felt that way. All communications were timely and clear. When we "spoke", whether vocally or in writing, it always felt as if I was her sole focus. At no time did it ever feel like Sarah was making assumptions or pushing her own agenda.</p> <p>And she was on time! Every time. I know that time management may seem like a simple detail, but before engaging Sarah, I attempted to view a few properties on my own. Out of 3 viewings, one Realtor was late by 20 minutes, and one failed to even show up. Sarah's time management skills are exemplary, and if being late makes you as anxious as it makes me, this is a very important detail.</p> <p>I can't thank Sarah enough. In customer service, the focus is always on exceeding expectations. Sarah did exactly that. It felt like I had a very knowledgeable and trusted friend by my side through the whole process. I have already raved to family and friends about Sarah, and will continue to recommend her to anyone who is looking for a Realtor.</p> <p>Thanks so much Sarah!</p>

<p>Sarah was lovely, honest, helpful, and informed. We would happily recommend her to others. Here are three reasons why:</p> <p>1. Willing to take time<br /> Sarah worked with us for several months on a slow-and-steady house search. She was very patient and flexible in term of our timelines, which worked extremely well for our family. I especially appreciated her willingness and enthusiasm to add viewings where and when we hadn't necessarily planned on it - she used her strong network of realtor associates to schedule viewings as well as to add viewings for random houses and at times that worked. She happily worked around our busy schedules.</p> <p>2. Confident professionalism and calm-but-friendly personality.<br /> We had full trust in Sarah's ability to have honest and respectful negotiations. She focused on objective details around inspection, the property, and comparables. And, she was kind with us and our kids, which put us at ease. She also provided honest advice on a couple of occasions on risk and/or the work might be needed on a property.</p> <p>3. Careful attention to detail and our needs during closing and possession.<br /> Sarah checked in very reliably with us during closing. She was our best source of information on how to negotiate and close our first house. We trusted her advice and, as a result, feel that we got a fair price on the house we wanted. THE BEST was her support during possession. She realized we had no lock on our garage and she insisted on installing one the next day. The fridge also died on possession and she deployed a contact from her network to fix it immediately, and she paid! So, a bonus is that we now know an excellent appliance repairer.</p>
