When it comes to buying and selling multi-family residential properties, having a skilled and knowledgeable representative is crucial. For almost 20 years, I've trusted Bill Papaioannou, a Broker with RE/MAX, to handle all my transactions. Bill always goes above and beyond to protect my interests and ensure the best possible outcomes. Throughout numerous transactions, Bill has proven himself to be a trusted advisor and an expert in the complexities of the multi-family rental market. His deep understanding of the market makes him a valuable partner for any investor. In my recent purchases, Bill demonstrated his exceptional negotiation skills. He understood the challenges of dealing with tenant-occupied properties and crafted offers that not only matched market values but also ensured I would have vacant possession of all units after the sale. This strategy maximized the investment value and allowed me to start generating rental income immediately without the complications of existing tenants. What sets Bill apart is his proactive approach to potential issues. In these transactions, he included terms that outlined financial consequences if tenants caused any damages when vacating. This foresight protected my investment and showed Bill's commitment to his clients' long-term success. Even when unexpected challenges arose, Bill's expertise turned problems into opportunities. For instance, when a tenant refused to leave a property before closing, Bill used his negotiation skills to secure a substantial price reduction. This not only resolved the immediate issue but also ensured I maintained positive cash flow. After two decades of working together and many successful transactions, I highly recommend Bill Papaioannou to anyone in the multi-family real estate market. His expertise and negotiation skills are unparalleled, and having Bill on your side can make a significant difference in achieving a successful and profitable investmen - John Anastasakis

Home Sale in Stipley, Hamilton | Jul 2024
Bill and his team did a great job in advising, assisting and representing us in the sale of our home. He advised us on the relevant market conditions for homes like ours. With the help of his recommended contractor, a sensible plan to fix it, paint it and clean it was put into action. After that work was completed efficiently and his stager went to work, the place looked great for marketing photos, visual tours and showings. After analysis of the market and comparables, we settled on a listing price designed to attract attention to the listing in a slow market. It worked. We found happy buyers within a few days of the property being listed. Bill negotiated wisely with the interested buyers and achieved a sale price well above asking without conditions. I should mention that I was out of town throughout the sale process. Bill and his team took care of several minor and annoying issues that arose that were hard to deal with from away and always cheerfully and gracefully, without hesitation. Bill was both professional and personable throughout our dealings. I think he is a top notch realtor who I highly recommend and would not hesitate to use again. - Paul Pellettier

Townhome Purchase in Berrisfield, Hamilton | Jul 2023
After being with another agent for five months looking for our first home with no success, I was told by that Real Estate agent that I will never own a home because the rates went up and I was priced out of the market. The Realtor told me to wait until things slow down but something told me to speak with a good friend who introduced me to Bill Papaioannou, a Broker with Remax Escarpment Realty in Hamilton. My journey with Bill started June 28, 2023 and by July 21, I became a proud owner of a three bedroom Townhouse in a beautiful community on the Hamilton mountain. Bill does not work with you for the money he will earn, he goes far beyond that. He puts people first, whether your purchase is big or small, your needs will be well met. Bill Papaioannou and Greg Rozakis are dedicated and caring professional Realtors with a commitment to their clients needs. They make themselves easily available to resolve issues when they arise. Bill goes beyond the call of duty, to make a smooth transition for both buyer and seller. He is trustworthy, knowledgeable and passionate about his profession. Words can not express the awesome client experience we had! If you are looking for a Realtor with long years of service and want things to be done correctly the first time with attention to detail call Bill Papaioannou today! We highly recommended him along with his professional associates. He certainly has earned his reputation and many accolades as a top and well respected Broker! Thank you Bill! - Peter and Miriam
Home in Hamilton Mountain, Hamilton | Jul 2023
In an uncertain Real Estate market Bill Papaioannou of RE/MAX made buying and selling a home a breeze! Being new to the home buying experience, Bill was extremely helpful and responsive to all our questions. From start to finish, we were treated with respect and care. Even in this slowing market, with rising mortgage rates, Bill remained positive and confident. As an experienced and skilled negotiator he was able to secure a great purchase price on our dream home even though we were in competition with several other agents. Bill’s negotiation style is very impressive. For the sale of our own property, he was able to close the deal for a price higher than we anticipated. When it came to professionally staging my house and taking photos, Bill brought in only the best in the business, we couldn’t be happier with how things turned out. There is no doubt who we will be recommending and using in the future, and you should too. You definitely won’t regret it! Thank you Bill! Anthony & Christina - Anthony
Home Sale in Gibson, Hamilton | Aug 2023
We had met Bill 27 years ago when he had made it possible for us to purchase our house at that time. Going forward, when it was time to sell our house Bill would be the one to do that for us . We had Bill come by and look at the house, he had given us suggestions of work that had to be done. Bill went above and beyond by arranging contractors also deep cleaning, staging, photography, and a drone tour of the house. Anytime we had any questions throughout this process he was there for us. He and his team put a lot of time and effort in the sale of our house, as the market was starting to decline. Bill did not disappoint us as it sold in a short period of time . We appreciate all Bill and his team had done for us. Highly recommend them Cherry & Manny Mastros - Manny Mastros
Home Sale in Strathcona, Hamilton | Jul 2023
For more than 20 years, we have engaged Bill Papaioannou as our Realtor, for a number of our residential rental properties.

Home Sale in Caledonia, Haldimand | Jul 2023
I was very fortunate to find Bill Papaioannou through a google search. I was specifically looking for a trustworthy and insightful realtor who was knowledgeable about the Caledonia area. Bill and his team went above and beyond. They were the most honest, dedicated, hardworking, attentive, and client centred group I have had the privilege of working with. I have had a number of realtors in the past and all claimed to be the above, however it was all about the commission at the end of the day, not Bill Papaioannou. Bill took his time to understand my needs and priorities as a seller and kept me informed throughout the process. He professionally staged and deep cleaned my property, developed video marketing that showcased my place and the neighbourhood to entice buyer's interest, extensively marketed it online, and even hired a handyman to ensure my place looked immaculate. He was also very knowledgeable about the current market. As a result, we were able to solicit multiple offers and sold my property within a very short days above asking in a transitional market. They were also great in deciphering all the legal documents, which alleviated my stress. In short, hire Bill and his team! 👍 - Vince Campobasso
Home Sale in Industrial Sector F, Hamilton | Jul 2023
Before I called Bill, I checked out multiple agents and real estate companies. In all honesty, I thought a discount brokerage would net us out more money given the price range of our home. Was I ever wrong! After talking to a discount broker, he assured us we would get less than $400K and prepared us to go even lower after 21 days. That left me really unsettled. Then I did an internet search and looked up the top selling agent in Hamilton and found Bill Papaioannou. After reading his 5-star reviews and his top producing results, I called him directly and he answered right away. His strategy right out of the gate was brilliant. He organized a deep cleaning of the home, staging, top shelf photography & social media. Within an hour of listing my house, I was getting house showings that day. He wouldn't even look at offers right away because he created so much interest in my house, he wanted to give it time to get hotter and it did. When he finally decided it was time to look at offers, there were multiple offers waiting for me. He got me more than he originally predicted, in less time, and about $50K more than the discount brokerage was promising. Don’t think you're saving money by using a discount brokerage. Trust Bill Papaioannou’s team. They worked hard and would not stop working until the deal got done & every effort was made to get me top dollar His efforts put me at ease and it was kind of fun watching his 30+ years of experience in action. Thank you, Bill, - Scott Booth
Home Sale in Caledonia, Haldimand | May 2023
We trust Bill with all of our real estate needs. He's helped us sell two houses, and we couldn't be happier with how smoothly each transaction went. Bill is incredibly responsive. Whenever we have a question or concern he gets back to us right away. He's detail-oriented and great at building relationships with his clients. It’s clear why he’s been recognized as a top agent for 34 years. He knows just who to call in to help prepare your house to put on the market. Our home was transformed with incredible staging, a world-class cinematic video, a drone tour and photography. He also arranged for social media exposure with campaigns on Instagram, Facebook and targeted online advertising. He even went the extra mile to interview agents in our new town to recommend a professional and dedicated realtor for our next home search. I trust his opinion—he's never steered us wrong! Bill doesn't just tell us what we want to hear, but what he believes will be best for our family. He's been a great resource for us, and I know he always has our best interest at heart. - Vanessa Hunter
Home Sale in Homeside, Hamilton | Apr 2023
After 37 happy years in one’s home, selling it and leaving it are painful. With the aid of Bill Papaioannou, our energetic and skilled agent, and his efficient associate Greg Rozakis, this process was greatly eased. We are very happy that Bill was recommended to us.

Selling your home and buying a new home can be a huge stressor in life. We took a dive into the market and knew we needed someone special, the best of the best.

We can’t thank Bill Papaioannou and his team enough for the excellent experience they provided us. We highly recommend Bill and his team if you want things done correctly and with attention to detail. Thank you Bill! - Adam and Michelle
Condo Purchase in Corktown, Hamilton | Feb 2023
When looking for a trustworthy Hamilton Realtor Agent, Bill Papaioannou immediately came to mind. A few years ago when looking for a top rated agent, Bill was referred by a friend who raved about his professional advice. We proceeded to list a house with him and the sale was very streamlined and quick. We were happy about the price negotiated. He was considerate of our family situation and was caring and understanding. So when our daughter was looking to purchase her first home we thought of Bill. He presented several options and advice. We never felt pressured or hurried and he was considerate of our daughter's feelings and opinions and ours as well. He was always available and generous with his time. - Sharon Haas

Townhome Sale in West Oak Trails, Oakville | Dec 2022
When we decided to sell our current home, it was an easy decision as to whom we would have help us. Without hesitation we contacted top rated Hamilton Realtor Bill Papaioannou to help us achieve our goals. Quick to respond, Bill did exactly what he said he would do to sell my property. Bill visited us two days later, prepared with a comprehensive market analysis & statistics from recent property sales in our area. We agreed on an asking price and started the ball rolling. The next night Bill had a clever informative “coming soon” ad he created and posted in various social media platforms. Bill’s team beautifully staged my home, had professional photos, incredible video and drone footage taken of our condo’s amenities. He worked hard to get my home listed and up on MLS within 1-2 days. The viewing appointments rolled in & within three days I had three offer’s to chose from. I accepted one of the offers that night and all conditions were met by purchaser within 5 days. Bill Papaioannou is definitely the best agent we have worked with. He is professional, always accessible with great advice, courteous and has a great sense of humour with a positive demeanor.

Home Sale in Mt Hope, Hamilton | Oct 2022
I have lived in my comfortable home for the last 62 years. Now, needing to sell my much loved home was a very new and frightening experience for me. Bill Papaioannou immediately made me feel at ease with his team of professionals including his assistant Greg Rozakis, stagers, cleaners and handyman. I entrusted them with the preparation & sale of my home and it sold within a short time period and I got close to what I wanted in this declining market. Bill made the selling process stress free & bearable with his knowledge of the constantly changing Real Estate market. I guess that’s what comes from 34 + years of experience! Bill was highly recommended to me by my family who had previous successful dealings with him and I now I can say I am also happy and proud to be one of Bill’s many AMBASSADOR'S. His attention to detail and effective communication skills are second to none. I highly recommend Bill to anyone seeking an experienced top rated real estate agent. I am truly grateful for all that Bill has done and a very satisfied client." - Alina

Condo Purchase in Waterford, Simcoe | Nov 2022
Another successful purchase, well negotiated by Bill Papaioannou! Back before multi-generational two-family homes were becoming more common: it was a tall order to find something that would suit our own growing family, as well as the in-laws – but Bill nailed it. He spotted the perfect property for us, the first day it was listed. He got us in for a viewing that afternoon, and by that night it was ours. It’s that kind of quick action and market awareness that gets him the distinction he’s earned for being among the top ranked in the real estate industry, in Hamilton. Fast forward to this past month: we’re empty-nesting now and needing to down-size. Naturally, we reached out to Bill again and were pleased to find that both he and Greg still remembered us; Bill has a gift for making you feel like you’re at the top of his list. When the right property came along, he was ready to help with all the advice, answers, and action we needed. It was a little challenging hammering out the terms of the deal with the seller, but Bill Papaioannou is the guy to have in your corner when you need someone with strong negotiation skills in those kinds of circumstances. For the second time now, he has proven himself deserving of all the accolades and awards he’s earned. We continue to pass his name forward to family and friends when anyone we know is looking for the best agent in town. - William Warnock
Home in Eleanor, Hamilton | Nov 2022
After recruiting him for the first time twelve years ago, we knew without hesitation that Bill Papaioannou would again be the best agent for our needs this time and sure enough: for the second time, he has led us successfully to another great outcome – our house sold only two days after the listing went live, for full asking price! Bill’s people skills and networking are his superpowers, securing his rank as one of Hamilton’s top rated agents. He is genuinely invested in his clients, attentive to their needs, helps to set reasonable goals, and does what it takes to reach those goals. Beyond this, he is incredibly well connected with a vast network of skilled professionals, and he’s happy to share those resources which can be very advantageous. When you join forces with Bill Papaioannou, you’re not just getting one of Hamilton’s best realtors – you’re getting a whole cadre of carefully curated professionals who stand behind him. Five stars, 10/10 would recommend, with confidence! - Deanna Tondreau
Home in Fessenden, Hamilton | Apr 2022
A referred real estate agent is the way to go! Honesty and integrity is how Bill and Greg were described to us. We used Bill & his team for the sale and purchase of our home. Bill's 33 years of experience in real estate is second to none. On selling our home, Bill and his team were straight forward about all the details that needed to be taken care of to get the price we wanted. Bill really pushed to get it sold for top dollar & he did not disappoint even in a declining real estate market . His stager, prep team and photographer were amazing. When buying, Bill was patient and very informative regarding market prices and values and when making an offer. His years in the business and connections found us the perfect home off market! Bill's strong negotiating skills got it at a great price without having to compete with other buyer's. We really appreciated all the time and effort he put in to helping us achieve our goals. We would without a doubt use Bill & his team again and would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a world class real estate agent & experience. - Anton Ryan
Home Sale in Dundas, Hamilton | Jun 2022
After interviewing several agents we confidently decided to list our home with Bill Papaioannou. Bill was proactive, engaged from the get-go, hands-on, detail oriented and sincerely committed to achieving top-dollar for us. Bill went above and beyond to ensure that everything was completed according to plan. Bill took his role seriously and had an extensive network of trade professionals who assisted us to prepare our property quickly, and cost-effectively, within a tight timeline. Selling my father’s home was overwhelming for our family--- dealing with personal belongings, paperwork and all the contents of a 3000 square foot home. Short of a full renovation, Bill Papaioannou's team gave excellent advice relating to strategically preparing the house cost-effectively so we achieved top dollar. Bill's contractors & staff were brought in for painting, replacing old carpet flooring in several rooms, new light fixtures in important rooms, a top-to-bottom clean, quality staging and first rate photography and videography. When complete the house attracted buyers by showcasing the full potential of the house and the amazing panoramic escarpment views above Dundas. Thankfully, we had multiple interested Buyers and accepted a strong clean Offer $170k over the original MLS List Price--- noteworthy, it was a record breaking price for Romar Drive! Bill added enormous value and I wholeheartedly recommend him if you are listing a property and want it done right. Thanks for an outstanding job, Bill, and Team Papaioannou.

Home Sale in Ancaster, Hamilton, ON | May 2022
With over 30 years of Real Estate experience and knowledge, Bill Papaioannou is without a doubt one of Hamilton's best and top rated real estate agents. Bill is a problem solver and was key to effectively communicating with my tenants to fully understand the process of selling my investment property.By doing so, Bill avoided a potentially difficult situation that is common with most tenants. From the minute I called Bill to evaluate my home he was all business. The property was prepared, photographed with world class photography, video, drone footage and presented on multiple social media sites. With the market shifting we were worried that we might not get the price we needed to truly fulfill our financial goals. Bill as a master negotiator once again set a record price of $186,000 more than the last similar style and size of home sold in our Ancaster neighbourhood. I've worked with many Realtors over the years and was impressed at the level of Bill's professionalism and knowledge of the Real Estate market. Bill proved to us why he truly is one of the Best Real Estate Agents out there - Joey
Condo Purchase in Riverdale West, HAMILTON, Ontario, Canada | May 2022
Looking for a realtor that goes above and beyond? Then I absolutely recommend Bill Papaioannou, a Top Rated Hamilton RE/MAX agent. Bill was very patient and attentive as I tried to navigate the very competitive fast paced real estate market. As a first-time buyer I greatly appreciated his attention to detail & his effective communication skills. Bill was totally committed and supportive throughout the entire process. Bill’s extensive 30 + years of knowledge and expertise was instrumental in negotiating an incredible price on the condo I purchased even though there were multiple offers. I was blown away when a similar unit sold in my building the next week and went for almost $100,000 more! I still can’t believe it! He has made my first-time experience of buying a home an enjoyable one! - Victoria

Home Sale in Bruleville, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada | Nov 2021
Real estate markets are a lot like the ocean, sometimes smooth but frequently turbulent. When the weather is stormy, you better have a seasoned professional at the helm, and Bill Papaioannou is the #1 agent I would recommend to guide the ship. I had first met Bill when my wife and I had to sell a rental. I hired him then based on his reputation for results and as one of Hamilton's Top agents. In fact, I was so impressed with his expertise that when I needed to sell a house again as the Estate Executor, there was no question about whom to call. Drawing on his 32+ years of experience and keen understanding of the market, Bill knew exactly how to present the house and attract the greatest number of buyers resulting in Another PAPAIOANNOU Record Breaking Price. He provided me with his trusted team for cleaning, junk removal and other services. A special shout out to Bill’s amazing personal assistant Greg Rozakis for his diligent behind-the-scenes work allowing for a stress free sale. Bill’s numbers don't lie - 7 days, 81 showings, 17 offers and a final sale $132,000 over the asking price ($110,000 more than the last sale on the street for a record). The choice is clear, you can call one of those big name billboard, bus shelter agents who you might never actually meet or call the real deal, Bill Papaioannou, for the personal attention of a top-rated agent you and your property deserve. - Doug Baillie
Commercial Property Transaction in Dundas, Hamilton, ON | Nov 2021
We have engaged Bill for many Real Estate transactions over the years, both multi-residential and commercial. He has proven to be very knowledgeable with a keen intuition for the Real Estate market and attention to detail. Bill has a vast network of reliable connections to contractors, cleaning companies, stagers and a world class photographer to help you get the absolute most money for your property. Bill helped us recently with a very complex multiple commercial real estate transaction where he expertly negotiated the lease with favourable terms for both parties. He is approachable and available 24-7 to listen & answer any questions or concerns. Most importantly he is driven to persistently hustle until the job gets done! I would highly recommend Bill for anyone looking for a highly experienced, driven agent with a terrific work ethic, honesty and integrity. - Tom Kouroukis
Home Purchase in Ancaster, Hamilton, ON | Nov 2021
If you are frustrated and overwhelmed with the current housing market (like we were), this is your sign to give Bill Papaioannou from Remax a call. When we decided it was time to find a house with more space for our growing family, we knew there was no one we trusted more than Bill to find us the perfect home. It wasn't an easy decision to decide to move on from our first home but we have Bill to thank for all of the wonderful memories we had built in it. We knew Bill would find us the perfect place to start the next chapter - and we were right! In 2017, Bill helped my husband find our first home, a luxury condominium. We look back and laugh because in 2017 the market seemed hot and finding an affordable home felt impossible but Bill did it. Five years later, the market is even hotter and finding a new home felt even more impossible than it did back in 2017. Despite it all, Bill managed to come through for us again. Having a young family, it was important for us to find a home we could make our own while staying in our budget. In such a hot market, Bill's knowledge and expertise in the Hamilton real estate market was critical to helping us find a home without being stretched too thin financially. Bill has once again proven why he is a Top Rated Agent and ranked as the #1 top real estate agent in Hamilton for 2020. He not only found us the perfect house, he was able to negotiate the perfect price for our budget. After watching many houses we were interested in go for over upwards of $200,000 over the asking price, Bill was able to secure us a home for almost $200,000 under the asking price. In this market, that is unheard of! We are completely in awe of his talent to negotiate and will forever be grateful. It is bitter sweet that hour house hunting journey has come to an end. We are going to miss our regular chats and meet ups with Bill. He has truly been a pleasure to work with. As we move on to our new chapter, we can't wait to make memories in our new home and we owe all of it to Bill. - Brittany
Townhome Sale in Ancaster, Hamilton, ON, Canada | Nov 2021
I've had the pleasure of working with Bill Papaioannou from Remax a couple of times over the past few years and trust me when I tell you, there is a reason he is a Top Rated agent and Number 1 rated agent in Hamilton for 2020 for Rate my Agent. In 2017, Bill helped me find my luxury condominium. At the time, the housing market was oversaturated with buyers, making it frustrating as a first time home buyer. Bill not only found my townhome, but helped me negotiate for under asking. While Bill was confident the townhouse would be a great investment for me, I was nervous I wouldn't make a return on it should the market ever change. I am glad I listened to Bill - his instincts were spot on. A mere 5 years later it came time to sell, there was no one I trusted more than Bill. When it came time to list, he made it clear that his goal was to set the record selling price in our neighborhood. When Bill sets a goal for himself, there is no stopping him. He was aggressive in pursuit to get top dollar. Bill not only had the house staged but also had an incredible videography team come out to do drone video and to create a virtual 3D layout of my home. Bill has helped me sell for nearly double what I purchased the townhome for! Not only did I double my investment, Bill helped us get over $150,000 over asking. Put in perspective, that is $100,000 more than the comparable townhouse in our complex sold recently. Now that is a record price! Bill's knowledge and expertise is unparalleled. We will without a doubt be relying on Bill again in the future. - Jon Leendertse
Condo Sale in Kirkendall North, Hamilton, ON | Oct 2021
Wow! Bill Papaioannou from REMAX made selling my condo such a breeze! He was always professional and very personable. Bill never made me feel uncomfortable or pressured and helped me every step of the way. His staging, photographer and social media team did an outstanding job showcasing my condo & building to attract an incredible number of buyer's locally & from the GTA. Bill went over and above by virtually staging the outdoor courtyard to express a lifestyle, something no other agent has thought of doing before. We know a lot of real estate agents but we chose Bill because of his stellar track record & experience in setting Record breaking prices! I can't believe it but Bill set a-record price for my unit too! He responded quickly to all of my questions, and most importantly was able to finalize a deal that gave me the best price for my condo. I would strongly recommend Bill Papaionnou to anyone in need of a top rated exceptional Real Estate Broker. - Christina Bonitatibus- - Christina Bonitatibus
Property in St Clair, Hamilton, ON | Nov 2021
Bill quickly became my preferred Hamilton Agent after I started looking for my first house. Having met a dozen others, he was the most forthcoming, and had the most accurate pulse of the market. Bill does not roll out any intensive Bill Board, Tv & Radio advertising on himself instead he focuses on savvy social media, incredible staging & hard work to properly market my home! When it came time to renovating my house for a future sale, I consulted with Bill to determine my best course of action with what finishing touches I'd need to get the number I wanted. After implementing all of Bill's suggestions, and with the help of his incredible team of contractor's, stager's, interior designer, world class photographer & videographer, I got $100+k more than I thought would be even possible in my wildest dreams. Bill's incredible result speaks volumes. That's why I would highly recommend Bill to anyone who wants a Stellar Realtor, with a direct personal touch. Now that I've sold my house at a phenomenal price, I know Bill was the absolute Best Agent!! Thank you Bill & your incredible team! - Luke Vandenbosch
Property in Stipley, Hamilton, ON | Oct 2021
The first time I met Bill I was sitting on the wrong side of the table while he masterfully negotiated on behalf of his client. At the time, I remember wishing he was our agent and that, if an opportunity arose, I would call him. I finally had the chance to contact Bill this year and was so happy I did! He, Greg and his team did an amazing job selling our home - exceeding all expectations and in record time. His ranking as the number one top rated real estate agent in Hamilton in 2020 is well deserved and earned. He has been the best agent we have ever hired; very knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and with a deep understanding of his clients needs. Bill also assisted in a wide search for our new house. He definitely had our backs when it came time to choose our next home. We almost put in an offer on what looked to be a nice house, but through his vast experience and intuition, Bill averted certain disaster by recognizing signs of a potential neighbour from hell! We appreciated his candid honesty and advice. Thankfully, during this recent purchase Bill was sitting on our side of the table. He was able to shrewdly negotiate and secure a home in the area of our choice (even in this crazy market) for less than asking price! Unbelievable!! It pays to have Bill and his team on your side! Thank you, Bill, Greg and your entire team, what an absolute pleasure! - June Chau and Roxy

I first met Bill when he sold us our first home. He was a tough negotiator for his clients. I like that so much I hired him to help us find our next home and sell our current home. He's been a delight to work with. His guidance has been on point. He takes a personal touch to know the areas we are looking at and almost always knows someone from the area or a helping hand from a handyman to touch up the house.. You may not need to interact with a dozen realtors in your life but from my perspective I found a gem and would recommend to anyone in the Hamilton area looking to buy or sell. - Blair Doyle
