Home Purchase in Grantham, St Catharines | Feb 2013
Mike and Allison are an amazing team and our family has been using their services and expertise for over a decade. From buying, selling and assisting us with our rental property they have been absolutely invaluable. They are the people you want in your corner. Can’t recommend them enough! - Deanna Mazachowsky
Home in Merritton, St Catharines | May 2025
Wonderful and professional service from beginning to end. Our real estate agent was always quick to reply and provided as much information as possible to make our decision making easier and straightforward. We learned of Mike through a friend referral as they had also gone through a move recently and they were more than excited to pass along Mike's contact info. - William Sauve
Home Sale in Thorold | May 2024
I was fortunate enough to find Mike & Allison through this website. I was selling a student rental and they had very extensive knowledge of the student rental market. I never felt they rushed through an in-person meeting, they were prompt in responding to phone calls, texts, and emails. They made a few suggestions for prep and staging and Allison even brought some things over to help stage the home. They are friendly, easy to talk to, and weren't too pushy to sign the sales agreement. We had several showings and a few walk-throughs once the home sold. They communicated with the student tenants, always giving lots of notice and arranging mutually convenient times. The house sold overnight!! I would highly recommend the Burton team for a real estate transaction in the Niagra area. - Jen Knight
Home Purchase in Lakeshore, St Catharines | Feb 2024
The first right choice we made while buying our first home was choosing Mike and Allison as our realtor. They both make a great pair and together offer the best real estate knowledge. They took time and effort to understand our requirements, gave us their valuable inputs and suggestions from time to time and were super helpful with all the paperwork and formalities. They made our first time home buying experience fun, informative and easy. We would highly recommend Mike and Allison. - Dipti Abhyankar
Home Sale in Grimsby | Apr 2024
A friend highly recommended Mike and Allison for the sale of my parent’s house in Grimsby, and I can see why. We are so glad we chose them as our realtors. Their experience and wealth of real estate knowledge and market, along with their advertising and marketing, made us feel very comfortable listing with them. They understood and respected my parent’s situation and timeline. Their negotiating skills are top-notch, and we had an agreement within 3 days of listing; conditions waived within 5. We knew my parents were very safe with them which felt good since my sister and I live so far away. Allison and Mike raised our trust and comfort level to feel confident again after a harrowing and stressful experience with another realtor. My parents are now in a condo close to me and I couldn’t be happier. To be honest, I’m really going to miss Allison - we felt like we adopted her as our sister xo - Amanda Penfold-McMullan
Home Purchase in York-Haig, St Catharines | Oct 2023
Mike (and Allison) were a huge help to us as we relocated to St Catharines. Mike has a broad knowledge of various neighbourhoods and the nuances of the local real estate market. We felt very cared for as first time buyers as he was great at helping us keep a level head and properly evaluate the homes we were looking at so that we ended up in the place that was right for us. We are beyond grateful for Mike's guidance through the buying process and would highly recommend the Burtons to anyone looking for a home in the Niagara region. - Dylan Green
Home in Merritton, Thorold | Sep 2023
We used Mike and Allison when we purchased 3 yrs ago and found them to be professional, attentive, reliable and knowledgeable. When we recently decided to sell, there was no other team we thought of to look after the transaction. They truly work as an efficient and effective team! Thank you for your assistance Mike and Allison! - Rick Greenly
Home Purchase in York-Haig, St Catharines | Apr 2023
I worked with Mike and he has been a phenomenal agent, truly top-line. He made the process of buying my first home a relaxed and enjoyable one, and he was always available to help and extremely prompt. I called him for the first time on a Saturday and by Sunday the next day he was at an open house with me. There’s no reason I can think of to ever use a different agent… - David
Home Purchase in Waterloo, ON | May 2022
Mike and Allison were beyond amazing in helping us buy our first home! They helped guide us through the difficult and often frustrating process with ease and expertise. Even when we faced challenges submitting a successful bid in a very competitive market, they helped us stay positive and consistently brought us a stream of great options until we found our house! - Jacob Morris
Home Purchase in Chippawa, Niagara Falls, ON, Canada | Apr 2022
My wife and I have worked with Mike and Allison Burton for approximately 5 years. We recently purchased a house in Niagara Falls, ON. Mike and Allison consistently provide quality customer service, while demonstrating an elevated level of professionalism and attention to detail. They are knowledgeable and quick to answer any of our real estate questions. Mike and Allison are diligent in every task they undertake. They possess tremendous work ethic; capabilities and vision when it comes to helping clients achieve their goals. Perhaps more importantly, Mike and Allison are honest and treat others with fairness, while also recognizing the necessity to be assertive and sensible when situations dictate. The most important part of working with a realtor is trust. We trust that Mike and Allison Burton have our best interests in mind, every time we consult and liaise with them. We highly recommend Mike and Allison for all of your realtor needs. - John Carrabs
Home Sale in York-Haig, St Catharines, ON, Canada | Jan 2022
Our most recent experience with Allison and Mike is now the third in an series of real estate adventures, two being house purchases and now this, our first sale. Without equivocation, we can say wholeheartedly that working with this real estate duo has been absolutely essential to our real estate successes. Every experience has been nothing short of amazing. We believe they go well above and beyond what would be considered the average roles of real estate agents. Allison and Mike have provided us with direct support, education, dedication, and advocacy when it was needed most, for which we couldn’t be more grateful. They answer every question with patience and reassurance, while also being direct, yet kind; their innate ability to not sugarcoat anything and provide a realistic perspective of any given situation, both good and bad, has earned our utmost trust and respect. We know from experience that we have been in the best of hands each and every time we have worked with Allison and Mike. They have been and always will be our only choice for real estate agents. - Troy & Shari Western
Property Sale in St Catharines, ON | May 2021
I researched top rated real estate realtors, Mike and Allison came up in the top over the last few years. I read the reviews and felt confident they were the Team I wanted to sell my house. From the get go, they were very professional and personable. Mike & Allison laid out their plan to market my house, gave me advice & quickly executed it. I felt confident in their abilities and they produced as promised. I strongly recommend Mike and Allison Burton to future Sellers and Buyers. - Allan Donat

Mike was incredibly helpful in helping us find the right property in St Catharines! Although we had a lot of questions and a lot to learn about the city he was super kind and informative during the search, and didn't hesitate to show us dozen of different places until we found the one. - Josh Reid

Mike and Allison are absolutely amazing. If we ever buy or sell we will definitely use Mike and Allison again. The sell of our house and buying our new house couldn't have gone any smoother. Very happy with the Burton team ! - Diana Uhrin
Property Sale in St Catharines, ON | Apr 2021
I will admit, I haven't worked with everyone in the industry, but I wouldn't ever go anywhere else for my Niagara real estate needs than Mike & Allison. Selling in the insanity of the covid market I was advised against by every "smart" person in my life EXCEPT these guys - I was told my agents are just looking to make a quick buck and don't care one iota about the potentially negative consequences to me or my children of moving in a seller's market. Thankfully their advice is all given in ignorance for what truly happens when you work with the Burtons is you get unwavering support, help, and yes, CARE as they slave to not only ensure your expectations are surpassed but that you are taken care of during the entire process. I cannot and will not ever be able to gush enough about how incredible this pairing of humans is; their panache and passion for Niagara real estate is unmatched, making them, in my humble opinion, the ONLY team acceptable for use in all of my future transactions. Thank you, thank you, THANK you, you wonderful people. - Rebecca Culp

Mike and Allison were such a pleasure to work with in finding our first home! Throughout the process, we felt like they had our best interests at heart and helped us make an informed decision. They were extremely knowledgeable and patient. We never felt pressured to put an offer in on a home that we weren’t in love with. They made the entire process easy and enjoyable. We highly recommend Mike and Allison! - Rachel

Mike and Allison helped me find my dream house. I wasn't able to go to a viewing and they videotaped a viewing with my girlfriend. Talk about going over and beyond! Fun loving knowledgeable people. Would recommend, and use them again in the future. Keep up the good work!! - Sheri Forbes

Mike and Allison are amazing! They have a wealth of knowledge, are professional and took the time with us to find "the one". We were able to negotiate a fair price and were lined up with all the professionals needed to get the deal done. You're in the BEST hands working with them whether buying or selling. - Adriann

Mike was extremely patient with my husband and I buying our first home together. He was very knowledgeable in terms of guiding us to an appropriate neighborhood suitable for our needs as well as giving us tips to help us prepare our home for sale. Our house had an excellent offer in a week and closed quickly. I highly recommend him! - Chantal Nadeau

Mike and Allison couldn’t possibly have made a better impression on us. They went above and beyond to ensure our understanding and options for the purchase of our first home. They set our minds at ease and were complete professionals throughout- allowing us to find the exact gem that we have now. We’ve gone to them for advice over the years only to find that same friendly professionalism. Couldn’t recommend anyone more highly than this team. - Jessica

Mike and Allison are top notch agents. They are passionate about real estate and know the market inside and out. They helped us buy 4 of our rental properties and sell a house as well, really quickly. They work hard, above and beyond our expectations every time. We would highly recommend Allison and Mike! - melanie and paul

I wasn't really sure what a real estate agent did when you are buying a house. It's a lot. There is so much to look out for but it wasn't like Mike and Allison were pushy. I really thought having a real estate agent try to find me a house would be pushy. They kept telling me they were not there to sell me a house, they were there to help me buy one. It was really nice to know they really wanted what was best for me. Now I love my new condo! It's so perfect. I didn't even think a condo was going to be a good place to live but they helped me learn all about what a condo is. I must have driven them crazy but they were always smiling. Always helping. I'm going to miss seeing them so often. I'm almost sad it's over. Thanks Mike and Allison. I hope this post is read by people like me and they call people like you.. - Amanda Corlette

This is our third time hiring Mike & Allison to sell a home and they never disappoint. We've had terrible experiences with real estate agents but these two are in a class of their own. They are so energetic, so honest and they worked so hard to get us a great price for our house. We love recommending them. - Joyce
The Burtons were a pleasure to work with. Mike Was knowledgeable, transparent, responsive and over all very positive person to work with. As a first time home buyer the process can be very daunting. Mike was very patient and receptive to what I wanted and was very flexible with availability. As a result I was able to buy my first home in a timely manner and I am very satisfied. I would work with Mike or recommend Mike to anyone in the future! - Jacob salter
