Buying a home is one of the largest investments one makes in a lifetime, and for a newcomer to the country it can be even more daunting. However, John Murphy made it an easy and seamless process for us. There is a lot to consider while deciding on a home, and he went above and beyond to educate us on important factors that would help us decide what was just right for our family. During the entire process as we visited potential houses, there was no pressure to take any decision making it a very comfortable experience. Besides our stated needs he was amazing at figuring out our unstated needs, and was able to show us a variety of options and patiently help us understand the advantages and challenges of different options. He was available to provide insights and guidance for our numerous questions throughout the process.

Once we finalized on an option he guided us on critical next steps to ensure that we were completely satisfied. His amazing level of service did not stop once the sale was finalized, but he continued to provide important guidance to help us prepare for moving in, and followed up to ensure that we had no challenges. He ensured the house was professionally cleaned before we moved in, making it a pleasure to move into a ready to occupy home. 

I completely recommend John Murphy to anyone who is looking to buy or sell their home. He is more than just a fantastic realtor, but has become a trusted family friend, Uncle John to my kids, and a good human who goes beyond expectations to make the entire process simpler and stress-free.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Jim and John for selling our condo.  Your professionalism, knowledge and caring showed throughout the sale process.  What more can we ask for...sold for over asking with the sale firming up within one week despite being so close to the Christmas Holidays.  We will not have any hesitation in contacting you for our next real estate transaction! 

In the fall of 2016 we had the good fortune of engaging Jim Smith and John Murphy as our realtors for the sale of our home in Oakville.  Professional, kind, courteous and quick to respond to questions – this is just a few of their top qualities.  They went above and beyond when it came to preparing our house to list and all of their suggestions were spot on.  Most importantly, they helped us determine a great list price for our home.  They knew what they were doing!  We sold our house in two days for more than asking and to top it all off; all of our conditions were met.  I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jim and John to my friends and family.

“John was a pleasure to work with. He was always very kind, professional and willing to answer any questions we had for him. Buying a home can be a very stressful experience but John went out of his way to sit down with us and explain every part of the process in detail which made it so much easier to understand. He consistently went above and beyond our expectations with his knowledge and extensive research around all the properties we viewed together. We would recommend him in a heartbeat and look forward to working with him again in the future!”

Working with John to find our first home was an absolute pleasure. There is a lot involved purchasing a home (more than we thought!) and he always went above and beyond to ensure we fully understood everything. John made us feel extremely comfortable and not pressured into buying any home we looked at. He did an excellent job during the viewings and and was very thorough and supportive. He was available for questions or assistance throughout the whole process and kept us updated and informed. John always had our best interests at heart and worked hard to find us the perfect home. He also followed up after we moved in to make sure we settled in with no issues.

The process could not have been any smoother or professional. We would highly recommend John Murphy to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. We have already recommended him to our friends who are interested in starting their house search.
