Quite simply, my partner and I wouldn't have been able to secure the kind of accomodation we were looking for without Gavin's help. This was our first time renting in the city, we had a very specific set of requirements and a hard deadline... so stakes were high. Gavin wasn't the only agent I initially contacted when I was looking for condos, but it quickly became clear that he was the professional I wanted to work with. I'd like to give 3 reasons why we credit Gavin personally with helping us find a great condo. Care & follow-through: Gavin volunteered to remotely view properties for us, always putting in high-effort in visiting those locations and going through every one of our questiond 1) Professionalism and rapport: My favorite quality in Gavin is how he strikes a great balance between being professional as well as candid/friendly with us, with one never coming at the expense of the other. As someone who also works with clients, I can tell you this isn't easy to pull off, and many agents get the balance wrong. Gavin would always deliver on-time, from planned viewings, prospect proposals and ongoing advice as we narrowed down our list. He was instantly approachable yet thorough, making us feel comfortable in using his time, and we never got the impression he was pushing us to settle on an offer quickly. 2) Attention to detail: Gavin clearly had a wealth of knowledge that allowed him to advise us on the most minute details to take into consideration as we went through the process. This included not just aspects of the condos themselves, but the fine print in renting in the city, what kind of buildings to look out for, how to navigate contracts and terms etc. This was invaluable knowledge for us coming to tghe city for the first time. He was our single point of contact and proved to be spot-on on all his advice. 3) Care & follow-through: Gavin volunteered to remotely view properties for us, always putting in high-effort in visiting those locations and going through every one of our questions, even offering to help outside the 9-5. This was key, as was his proactive offer to help us review the contrat and get smoothly settled-in during and after deal closure. It wasn't just about the deal for Gavin - we knew we could reach out for his help or advice weeks later, which is more care than I've ever received for a simple lease. Gavin going above and beyond was a major reason why we managed to secure an ideal offer, and when the need arises I'd surely work with him again. - Themis Karavellas

Gavin was so great to work with! Very professional, responsive and easy to communicate with. He ensured the whole process from showings to move in went as smooth as possible. Would definitely recommend Gavin to anyone looking to move. - Hayle

Gavin was patient and kind during my search for a new home. He listened to my criteria and didn't waste my time with listings that were out of reach or that didn't meet my minimum criteria. I am thrilled with my new home and neighborhood. - Matthew

Gavin is well worth his commission, especially if you are new to being a landlord. He is effective at advising the proper market price for a rental and is fast bringing the listing to the MLS and advising on contract terms. His involvement got us a good quality tenant very, very quickly in a renters market. Highly recommend. - Marc

Gavin is STELLAR. He is professional, dependable, trustworthy and at the same time very personable. Gavin offers great relief during the stressful process of looking for a place to rent, or to buy or to lease. Highly recommended. I personally met Gavin by sheer luck and coincidence as a first time Toronto condo-renter. Gavin is a real lifesaver. Gavin helped me navigate the complex and competitive Toronto rental market, and was superb at accommodating my schedule that is not-at-all easy to accommodate. Gavin was also a great support in helping me become a first-time Condo-Owner. He understood my likes and dislikes, and was professional in selecting the right options for my considerations which saved me a great amount of time and stress, and helped me find my property and close within a month! Gavin continues to provide me with great support in finding suitable tenants as I lease my condo out, and always respond promptly with any queries from my end. Highly recommended. - Frances

Gavin was great to work with, he understood our needs and requirements but was realistic about what we could expect in our price range. Has a great design eye, and will help you visualize what your house can look like with certain furniture. Very friendly and easy to talk to. We're very happy with the house we were able to find with his help. - Dana Bronsteter

Very satisfied with the services provided by Gavin Fong and the purchase of my home in Toronto. After renting for a number of years, I decided it was time to move into homeownership. As a first time homebuyer the process was daunting, but Gavin was knowledgeable, approachable, and responsive. He took me to see a number of homes and walked me through the pros and cons of various listings. Gavin worked around my schedule and organized showings. He worked with me to narrow down my scope and help focus my attention. When we found the perfect listing, he guided me through the offer process and, thanks to his negotiation skills, we were successful. Overall I was very pleased with the process and final outcome. I couldn't imagine living anywhere else and Gavin made it happen. I highly recommend using Gavin as an agent for any of your real estate needs in this ever-changing market. - Derek Mathew

Gavin was very responsive, had great insight about the bidding process and bidding amount, and was incredibly helpful in the process following the successful bid, which as first time homebuyers we were not aware of at all. Gavin is very professional and hard working, and I would recommend him to anyone. - Laura chelaru

I would definitely recommend Gavin Fong as a real estate agent. He was knowledgeable, extremely thorough, and made himself available whenever we needed him. We really valued Gavin's honest and integrity, it made us more confident in our decision when we bought our house. We never felt like Gavin was pressuring us to make a decision or make a purchase, even though our search took time. Gavin is a great guy and agent and I highly recommend! - Muriel Youngs

Gavin was the most patient realtor ever! We had a big wish list and were also stubborn to stay in a specific area. He was gentle (and subtle) with showing us what we could get if we were open to seeing properties in other DT neighbourhoods. When we found our current home, Gavin did some research to find some key information to recomment that we offer a lower than asking price. He was adamant on getting the best price for us and managed to do so in our favour (mind you, this WAS 2016). His service didn't stop on closing day. He was with us through our renos in 2020 and gave us great recos for what to do should we want to increase our value. He still drops by with a hello and to check in on us. We absolutely recommend using Gavin or find your a new home and to sell - he is the best and we plan to use him again when the time comes back around! - Anny K
