I spend time inspecting a large number of homes to find the perfect fit.
I use the best mortgage brokers and home inspectors to make
sure it’s affordable and passes a stringent assessment of all the major
components of the home.
I provide a complimentary detailed home evaluation which will help you
determine the value of your home. Even if you’re not considering selling
your home today, an annual home evaluation is important in
understanding your most valuable financial asset.
Buying and selling a home can be tough, especially in today’s challenging market. But, it can also be fun – an exhilarating adventure. I understand both the joys and heartaches of finding (and getting) that perfect home. As a homeowner with a young family, I’ve been there and done that. I also have the professional know-how that years of working in the Toronto real estate market has developed.
Over the years (since 2001), I have represented clients in the purchase and sale of condos, starter homes, move-up houses, luxury homes and small businesses. (Although Commercial real estate is not my core business, I am usually working with one or two Commercial clients.) My knowledge and experience make the difference for my clients.
My clients are my focus, but a Realtor can’t get much done if he doesn’t develop strong professional and personal relationships within the industry. In today’s market, characterized as it is by very tight supply, I find that one of the most important aspects of my business is networking with other Realtors. I am constantly digging for opportunities for my clients. This results in off-MLS transactions that serve the needs of both the buyer and seller.
As a father of 3 boys and 1 little girl, I take a family-friendly approach to my business dealings. That means flexible appointments and easy scheduling; feel free to bring the kids! I endeavour to make the whole process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Ultimately, the objective is to enhance your life by finding you a new home that suits your needs of today and into the future; and selling your existing asset for the most money and with the best terms possible. Together, we’ll develop and execute the right strategy for you and your specific needs.
Much of my business comes to me by referral, so I’m not limited to any geographical area. My focus is on meeting the needs of my clients, wherever they may be. Call me today, and let’s get to work on your real estate goals.
Community
RE/MAX Hallmark is a big believer in giving back to the communities we serve, and I am happy to participate in three of our most important programs.
Every time I do a transaction – buy, sell or lease – I make a direct donation to theChildren’s Miracle Network. RE/MAX agents are leading donors to the CMN, having raised $52 million dollars in Canada alone since 1992. When you do your real estate business with me, we contribute to that growing total.
We do the same for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Again, RE/MAX is a major sponsor of the CBCF, and makes it easy for us to contribute directly to the important work they do. A portion of every commission I make goes directly to the CBCF.
I also make a monthly donation to the breakfast program operated by the Toronto Foundation for Student Success. We all know how important a good brekky is – and how many kids wouldn’t get one if it weren’t for programs like the TFSS. With four kids of my own, this one is close to my heart.
You need an experienced, full-time professional Realtor – that’s key to a successful real estate transaction. However, I want you to know that, not only am I going to take care of you, but together we’ll help take care of others!

When we decided to sell our Beach Triangle home we were a little worried at first about not hiring one of the ‘big beach names’, but the service we received from Simon went above and beyond what I think any of the others could offer. We gave him just over a week’s notice and Simon coordinated staging, cleaning and a pre-listing inspection! He was very attentive to all of our questions and we always felt like he understood this was not just another house for sale but our beloved home. I highly recommend Simon! (Oh….and….we got an amazing price for our house!)

We met Simon in the Spring of 2012 at an open house when we were planning to sell our home in the Beach. However, it was severely damaged during Hurricane Sandy so we asked Simon to find us an emergency rental property which he did very quickly. We continued working with him looking at many properties until the completion of the restoration on our house. He listed it for sale and it closed for full asking price in just a few days. In the lead up to listing he referred us to resources such as a stager and a home inspector, both of which we used. Simon also represented us on the successful offer we made on a new home. We have found Simon to be honest, ethical, knowledgeable, patient, and personable. He is a good listener with excellent interpersonal skills. His research of listed properties is unequaled.

I just wanted to write you a quick note to let you know that I sincerely appreciate your help in getting my condo sold in time for me to move to start my new job. I appreciate that you deal personally with your clients throughout the process of listing, showing and selling a property. I was extremely pleased with the above offer sale price of my condo and I will not hesitate to recommend you if anyone I know is looking for a Toronto-based agent.

We can’t thank you enough for finding us this neighbourhood. It is such a great community to live in. We have amazing friends and neighbours, a great school and everything we need is close by. We can’t imagine living anywhere else 🙂

My wife and I contacted Simon when we decided to sell our townhouse in Riverside. With his guidance on getting our home into selling condition, and his expertise in the Toronto real estate market, Simon was able to help us sell our home quickly, and at a great price. Along with being personable and helpful, we also found Simon to be professional and dedicated in getting our townhouse sold. Our experience with Simon was great! For anyone looking to sell a home in Toronto, I would definitely recommend him!
