Very knowledgeable on the Toronto housing market and impressive negotiation skills. I can't believe we got our home for such a low price!

Ed is a true professional, knowledgeable, competent, accommodating and efficient. My wife and I are very happy with the condominium we purchased and had a great experience while searching for it. We wholeheartedly recommend Ed's services and are very appreciative for the help we got. Thank you, Ed!

Dear Ed, I'd love to use this opportunity to appreciate what you have done not only for me, but for my family. You spent your time and energy to understand our situation with full integrity and kindness, created a team and organized everything. Our family sold and bought 4 houses in less than 2 months with you. The ones that you sold for us we were paid more than what we asked for, and the ones that you bought for us we paid less than what they asked for. The first house, which was a big house was sold in in just 4 days!!! We, truly couldn’t have a better agent than you. YOU ARE THE BEST! I would love to talk to anybody about what you have done for us. Thanks a million, Shahrzad Dehsarvi

My husband and I recently moved back to Toronto after more than 20 years of living all over the USA. Over the years we bought and sold several houses and are pretty familiar with agents and the world of real estate...since our move here to be close to family, we have been looking for a home for ourselves and our elderly mother....not an easy task to find one house that will accommodate us all! Throughout the process, Ed has been unfailingly helpful, patient, professional and thoughtful. He has been more than diligent about searching out houses in different neighborhoods that might meet our needs and always ready and willing to show houses of interest at very short notice. We have every confidence in Ed that when we find the right place and the right time, he will be a most excellent advocate in our behalf. If you are looking for an agent who breaks the mold when it comes to real estate stereotypes, Ed is your guy....feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you want to hear his praises sung even more.

I would like to bring the experience I had with Ed Dolatabadi in regards to the purchase of my condo, in writing. In a very short time with my time limit and high expectations of finding a condo with exactly the criteria I had in my mind, I found working with Ed Dolatabadi a unique experience. Meaning that I needed to work with some one who just did not want to sell me a condo, fast and furious, and as I believe that we should always work for others as if we are working for ourselves and relatives. Not to make the choices for our clients, that we do not want for ourselves. I found Ed to be all the above, very honest, patient and detailer in all aspects of making a purchase for me. His advises were very beneficial to me to make my final choice. I got exactly what I wanted to purchase with all the details I had in my mind and in my heart, I did not have to give up any of my desires in regards to buying a condo, and settle for anything but the best. This took many many visits to many locations, in (-16) degrees to (-33). There were times that I was so tired and the only thing that got me going was how Ed would not settle for anything but the best for me, his patience and knowingness that we will find what I had my heart set on. We narrowed down many times our selections, but he knew I was not happy, so we moved on. In less than 3 weeks we finally both agreed on the purchase of the most beautiful condo in down town. I am happy with working with Ed and will refer him to my friends and family who would like to have quality in their dealings. Keep up the good work Ed, as you know very well the difference in any service given is in details and dedications, which you have a 100% if it.

I am writing this e-mail to document my very positive experience with Ed Dolatabadi when I purchased my new house in November 2008. In November 2008, I had to move to Toronto from Edmonton (AB). I only had a couple of days to find a new place to purchase, close the contract and transfer the property. Ed was recommended to me from several friends who had dealt with him both in purchasing and selling their properties. My own experience solidified all the comments that I had received about him. Ed listened to my unique situation, mainly my budget, location, type of property I needed, and the short period that I had to visit the locations and conclude my purchase. Before my trip, he gave me many advices on how to narrow down my search, gave me many expert advice on what neighborhood best fits my requirements, and sent me many listings through internet. This enabled me to narrow down my search before actually come to visit the locations. Then he personally visited all of the locations that I chose based on their web profile, and did some more search on the neighborhood and location. He eliminated some of the locations based on my requirements, and by the time I arrived, I only had to personally visit the best options to make up my mind. He accompanied me to visit all locations that best fit my criteria, and in each visit, he brought up not just the positive points but also the disadvantages he had discovered while he visited the place himself. These points included the plan of the house, the size and location of the kitchen (one of my criteria), the builder’s reputation, the view, the required improvement and extra expenses required to make the place suitable for my living. This made it very easy for me to compare the options and make a decision that would best fit my life style. Once I narrowed down the choices to two places, he spent many hours with me, going over the history of the properties, their previous purchasing prices, prices that similar locations were sold recently, and showed how to prepare an offer which would guarantee me a successful bid with best possible price. Then he negotiated tirelessly with the seller to get me the best possible price. I have since moved to my dream home, and every day I notice how lucky I was to have Ed as my realtor. To this day, I didn’t encounter any surprises, nor felt that my purchase could have been better. I owe all this to Ed’s tireless efforts. I had dealt with other realtors when I bought and sold my house in Edmonton and both cases made me very pessimistic about buying or selling houses. But Ed’s professionalism, knowledge, attitude and honesty showed me that a good realtor makes all the difference. I have recommended him to all my friends and family without reservation and never regretted it.

Ed sold our house back in 2008 when the market crashed. He was extremely motivated to ensure that we sell for the price our house was worth. He never stopped advertising and holding open houses. His persistence, professionalism, and innovative marketing ideas ultimately led us to sell our house for the price that we wanted. He really cared and was always in communication with us about the showings and the feedbacks from potential buyers. During the time that we had our house on the market, we were looking for a potential home that would be suitable for us. Ed was extremely helpful. When the time came and he found us the right home, he negotiated very effectively, and got us the house for a significantly lower price than what was asked for. We recommend him unconditionally!

When my wife and I decided to accept new positions in Toronto, one of our most important concerns was “The Home”. We had our initial meeting with Ed and he listened to our wants and needs and fully understood us. He was constantly providing us information on the houses in which we showed interest , as well as the area demographics, schools, amenities, etc. He was also viewing the homes for us and video recording all his observations. We appreciate the amount of extra effort he put into ensuring that we experience touring, viewing and inspecting the homes as if we were in Toronto. Together we narrowed the search down to a handful of homes that we could view over a weekend. We flew to Toronto, and Ed was with us for the entire weekend. He helped us choose our new home, prepared the offer and went over all the details with us, and negotiated an excellent price and term. Ed was available through the entire process: from selection and negotiation to inspection and finally the possession of the house, and even after the possession while we were away. We felt we could always count on him to give us the best advice and do anything and everything possible to deal with the challenges of this process. We find Ed to be an excellent agent for anyone wishing to make a real estate purchase in Toronto. Alidad Amirfazli & Fereshteh Keshavarz

Ed was introduced to me by a friend when I decided to rent out an apartment of mine and I was quite happy with his work. Shortly after I had an emergency that required me to move abroad on a quick basis and yet again, in the short time I had, he managed to rent our my apartment very quickly. He also kindly accepted to manage the apartments in case there were any issues and he managed it way better than me while keeping me up to date on day to day activities. As my stay abroad extended I couldn't think of anyone better than Ed to sell my apartment for me. Again Ed succeeded to sell my apartment very quickly, always considering all my concerns and once more acting more than an agent but also a friend who cared. I fully trust Ed and have recommended him to all my friends. Thanks Ed and all the best Rana Sheikh

I am pleased to share my property sale experience with Ed Dolatabadi. Ed was introduced to me by a good old friend as a reliable real estate agent and I am happy to say he proved his reliability in practice. For sale of a property Ed has a comprehensive plan: market study relevant to specific neighbourhood and specific buildings, property presentation/advertisement method to the full potential of a property, market monitoring of the listed property and gathering feedbacks from interested buyers to provide his clients with reports as to how the sale process is being evolved and whether pricing adjustment would be necessary according to the latest market status while sticking to his advisor role and leaving the final decision to the seller. Also it is worth mentioned that his expertise in conjunction with his professionalism and honesty has turned him to an efficient negotiator that speeds up a straight forward and hassle free sale process. As well, it is important to know that Ed keeps working with the same devotion and professionalism up to the closing date to insure the quality and perfection of his work. Ed’s diligence, honesty, professionalism and devotion is the true example of what one could wish for. Congratulations Ed to the perfect job you did for me. All the bests, Alireza

Ed has sold two properties for us and leased one of our condos. In each and every deal, he took care of all the details, helped us prepare the properties for optimal showings. He referred reputable contractors, stagers and other trades to us, as well as managing all the logistics. He helped us understand the importance of pricing, and together we came up with a listing price for each property that led to our successful sales. He had a well thought marketing campaign to maximize the exposure of our properties to potential buyers which resulted in numerous showings. He always updated us with the feedback from the viewers and their agents up to the time we had offers. On each occasion, Ed’s calmness and his confident negotiation skills during the offer presentations helped us secure great deals. We have used the services of other realtors in the past and have had good experiences, but Ed’s care, knowledge, and attention to detail go far beyond anything we had experienced. Ali Ghadimi

A few years ago we moved to Montreal. After counseling with Ed, we decided that it was best to lease our property instead of selling it. Ed worked hard to cover all of the avenues, from open houses to creating a website, and not only leased the property in a short period of time, but also for the right price. Three months ago, we decided to sell our house and Ed’s advice at the time proved to be invaluable; the price of our property had increased and it sold in a short period of time. He then helped us purchase our new home and negotiated an excellent price on our behalf – all of this while we were still living in Montreal. Due to my family’s schedule, we were only able to visit Toronto twice to view property matches and Ed was able to schedule all of the viewings within our time constraints. Ed made our long distance business transactions a pleasure and removed the hassles of the usual buying and selling experience. Throughout our relationship, Ed was always available if we had any questions and updated us on the market by sending us property matches that met the criteria we had communicated to him. Working with Ed has always been a pleasure and I have no doubt that future experiences will be the same.

"Ed has been able to show professionalism throughout the sale process. He listened attentively to our needs. He used the right channels to market our property successfully. He was able to sell it shortly after coming to the market and above the asking price. In our opinion Ed's main advantage is the trust and good reputation that he was able to establish with us and others. Ed is clearly hardworking, determined, and intelligent in his approach. In our experience we have not seen an agent other than Ed with all these qualities in one person" Trevor chorba and Sanaa Noubir, North York, ON.

Hi, just a note to say thanks for all you have done for us throughout this process. As first time buyers, we had a lot of unanswered questions regarding the purchase of our home. Thank you for providing the answers to many of these and giving us informed advice on the homes that we visited!
