Darren Slavens

Darren was a tremendous help while we navigated our first home purchase. He is extremely knowledgeable and honest about the pros and cons of each property. He accommodated our numerous requests to see homes short notice and was flexible and understanding as our preferences changed over time. Darren was also a fantastic negotiator and advocate when it came to our final purchase. We would work with him again in a heartbeat! - Natalie Jewitt

Darren was an amazing agent. He showed us several properties across a number of months. He was always professional, patient, and offered the best advice. We finally landed on this property and Darren did an amazing job negotiating the price, terms and more. He even found us a renter in record time at the price we wanted. In my opinion, he is the Best Agent in the City. He is a great person with integrity, who you can count on. He is always willing to lend a hand and is a pillar of our community. I wholeheartedly recommend Darren. - Yair Weisblum

Having worked with a number of real estate agents I can say that Darren is without question a level above all. His honesty, integrity, knowledge and patience was integral to us finding the right house and selling ours. He was never pushy and would always tell us where he saw value, and where he felt we could do better. His knowledge was incredibly helpful to us finding the right house at a price point that made sense. Further, when it came to listing our house Darren had a well thoughtout strategy and was able to run a seamless process even when market conditions were not in our favour, and sold at an incredible price. He is incredible at what he does and I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. - Rob Scheinert

Darren has been very professional and proactive which resulted in a quick sale. This was done in a slower market and included great feedback on how to prepare the house for sale. - Thomas

Darren Slavens is the ultimate professional. He is not only well informed,and up to date on all current listings, but he is also intuitive and appreciates not only his client’s needs, but also their wants. He is respectful of his client’s price point and desired location, and as importantly he considers their lifestyle and their stage in life. These important considerations speak to his ability to tailor his services to the individual client. Darren is also not only courteous, and prompt in his replies to even the smallest client requests, but he also wisely uses his vast experience to appropriately guide his clients in this complicated and often difficult process. Darren Slavens is therefore the quintessential embodiment of a great real estate agent. No more need really be said but thank you . - Sheilla Leinburd

The sales contract is signed, but the closing is not until the end of the month. I’ve given Darren a 5 star review because he was effective (negotiated a top price in a downward moving market), fair to all parties, and a pleasure to deal with. I would happily recommend him. - Valorie Waitzer

You can't do better than Darren! I was so lucky to have Darren by side throughout this process. As a first-time homebuyer, I was naturally very intimidated by the process. Thankfully, Darren was always there to calm by nerves and share his knowledge and expertise. The amount of effort and time he put into walking me through the process is unbelievable. On top that, Darren is the kind of person who will bend over backwards and jump through every hoop to get you what you want. He always made himself available and truly made me feel like he was as invested in finding my dream home as I was. I would love to work with Darren again in the future and would highly recommend him! - Jamie Rechtsman

Darren went above and beyond for us to get us the perfect rental home. We came from the states and he personally went to each home we found and FaceTimed me for every one of them until we found the perfect one. He guided me to family friendly neighborhoods with everything that I was hoping for. Couldn’t have had a better experience with him! - Marisa kiermaier

Darren was a wonderful agent and we can't recommend him enough. He is patient, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. He takes time to understand your needs. His experience gives him insights to help you navigate each stage of the home-buying process. He has an excellent gauge of the market, making him an accurate assessor of market trends and house worth. Most important, his calm confidence will help you overcome the pressures of what can be a stressful experience. - Josh Scheinert

Darren Slavens was highly recommended to us when we set out to sell our condo and purchase a house nearby. Darren demonstrated his expertise and deep knowledge of the local market through out the entire process. Beyond his professionalism, we valued his communication style. House hunting can be a stressful process, but with Darren’s objective and frank approach we had no doubt that he had our best interests at heart. While we took an extraordinarily long time to search, even changing our criteria and locations over time, we ended up right in the ideal neighbourhood for us with a fantastic home that exceeded our expectations. This location happened to be in the very neighbourhood that Darren had anticipated we would select from the outset! - Fleur

We have had the pleasure having Darren represent us on numerous transactions over the past 15 years. He treats each transaction, no matter how small or large with professionalism, integrity and enthusiasm. He not only knows the market but works tirelessly to negotiate the best possible outcome for his clients. I would highly recommend Darren to anyone seeking a trusted broker who will ensure that the process is a smooth and enjoyable one. - Paul Bonder

Darren is a person of great integrity and honesty. We have worked with him on several deals and always been very happy with that high level of service. Darren is a high energy, can do personality and really knows his stuff. I could not recommend him any higher - Ms. Darcie Richler

I have always felt that Darren had my best interest on the forefront when purchasing a home. He never tried to push me into making the sale. If he had any concern about the potential home, he would let me know, even if it was a home that I was getting excited about. I've recommended Darren to my family and friends. My sister has purchased and sold about 6 or more places with him and she will continue to in the future. - Matteo Trevisan

Darren was a huge asset to the sale of our home and the purchase of our next home. He is a thoughtful strategist and clear communicator. He is ethical and trustworthy in an industry where agents are not always known and rewarded for those traits. He is patient and understands that the decision that he helps clients make will have an oversized impact on their lives. He is a calming influence on a chaotic process, under-promising and overperforming. At a time when the value of every professional is being questioned, Darren added significantly value to our real estate transactions. I would highly recommend his services. - Faye K

Having Darren Slavens beside us was extremely comforting and actually made the process enjoyable. Darren’s patience, integrity and knowledge of the industry make him one of the best agents around. He can be trusted to do what he says he will. His client’s best interest at heart. A true gentleman and a trusted friend. - Jason Kimelman

Darren is the go to guy - always on the ball with helping us in our search. Finding listings, booking showing, responding to texts in minutes and always with an objective eye. Darren's industry knowledges allows him to understand the buyer's priorities (schools, location, style of house, budget, etc) and then be patient enough to hold back until he has found the perfect opportunity. Once in the offer/negotiation stage, Darren starts to flex his muscles and provides clients with quick, strategic advice all while being completely transparent and honest. We just closed our house this week and have already recommended Darren to a few of our friends. This guy knows the Toronto housing market. - Lucas Slan

Darren was an absolute pleasure to work with on both the purchase of our new home and the sale of our current home. He and his team brought deep knowledge of the neighbourhood (both on and off market opportunities) and demonstrated great patience in our search. Darren is calm, confident and realistic, professional and approachable, and guided us through the purchase and sale with expertise and an incredibly high level of service. We would recommend Darren 10 out of 10 times! - Diana Shedletsky

If Darren Slavens and his team were a house for sale, they'd be described as perfect for first-time home owners, exquisite attention to detail and meets your every need. We can't say enough amazing things about Darren, who gladly sacrificed his evenings and weekends to take us to see every house our hearts desired. He never pressured us, and only gave sage advice. For a time we thought we might never buy a house just so we could enjoy Darren's smart and clever company on the weekends. If you want someone who puts their clients' every need first, Darren is your realtor! - Rachel

Our experience with Darren was excellent. He was very communicative about his process as well as what would be necessary to get our house to market. The team was stealth like, from organizing and clean-up to staging, there was always someone there managing every detail. We found Daren to be incredibly thoughtful and considerate throughout, we can't thank him enough for all his patience. Bar none, our best experience with an agent!! Thank you to the Slavens team!! - Carolyn berger
