I first worked with Julie in 2014 and had a great experience. Fast forward many years later, in 2022, my fiancée and I were in need of a realtor to help us find a new unit to lease that would meet our needs. We reached out to Julie, and as always, she was very responsive and professional. Julie made the process to find a new unit seamless, fast, and efficient and most importantly - stress free. She asked a lot of questions and took the time to understand our needs and communicated all our requests to the landlord once we found our perfect unit. Thank you Julie for all your efforts and support and for being patient with us! Working with you has been a pleasure and we would not hesitate to reach out again as soon as we are ready to make our next move! - Ahmed & Marwa

Julie has been our family’s realtor for several years. Whenever we need help in searching for a home, she has always been there for us - often going above and beyond. Most recently, she helped us purchase and lease our townhouse. As always, she was helpful and very accommodating. She took care in finding us a place that was good for us. Very good agent! I would definitely recommend Julie to anyone looking for a home. You’re the best, Julie! Keep it up! 👍🏼 - Dee

Julie was absolutely amazing throughout the whole process. She responds extremely quickly and is very thorough. It was my first time buying so I had a lot of questions and uncertainty. Julie went above and beyond in every aspect. She's not only knowledgeable but kind and patient. I would recommend her to anyone! Thanks, Julie!! :) - Caitlin Elizabeth Honey

Julie was fantastic to work with. Not only was Julie professional, timely, and efficient, she took time to understand our family's needs. This then allowed her to make helpful recommendations and suggestions. Additionally, Julie did not pressure any specific direction; instead continually listened well and reinforced that she was here to serve and support our family throughout the home purchasing journey. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone considering an agent that is both personal, professional, and skilled at their work. Thank you, Julie! - Darren Herbold

Julie is incredibly knowledgeable and service oriented. She made our transaction so smooth and was with us every step of the way! Julie took the time to know our needs and ensured we were comfortable with each decision. We would never make a purchase without Julie involved and recommend her to everyone we know! - Kelly Maniateas

We had a great first time home buying experience with Julie. She kept our interests in mind and showed us a variety of properties. She was great on making time to view a property on short notice - especially important in the crazy market at the time where homes would sell within a day or two of being offered! She helped us put together a number of offers, again on short notice and with time constraints, and helped us find our first home. Thanks Julie! - Jordan Valentin

It was amazing having Julie as our realtor while navigating this crazy housing market!! Julie was always quick to respond and book showings. She had our housing needs and best interest at heart, very patient with us and all the houses we looked at. Julie was very thorough when going through houses making sure to point things out to us, detailed oriented and personable!!! All around an amazing agent!! I would definitely recommend Julie to anyone!! - Lauri Pike

This was our second time working with Julie! She helped us purchase our first home in 2017 and it was such a great experience that we knew we wanted to work with her again as we looked to purchase our second home (since our family had grown and needed more space)! She is truly such a wonderful agent to work with. During our home search, she provided a lot of helpful support and information (especially info relating to the current market), she was quick to book showings and work around our schedules, she was so encouraging during moments when I was feeling discouraged, she was available whenever I had questions, and she did a fabulous job negotiating for us as we secured our new home! It’s been great working with her again. Nothing but positive things to say about Julie! - Princess Edralin

Julie helped me buy my first home a few years ago, and I had such a good experience with her, that it was a no-brainer to reach out to her again when I needed to move and sell my current home. Julie is quick and responsive. She is very knowledgeable in what she does, and does her research with your best interest at heart. Throughout the process she is reassuring, thorough, and very detail oriented. I would highly recommend Julie and her team whether you are buying or selling a home! - Jessica

Julie was a pleasure to work with. She was very informative and accommodating. Always well researched, and even when she didnt have answers right off hand she always came back with answers we needed to make informed decisions. Julie, was honestly a God sent during our search and made the process very smooth. Encouraging and no pressure selling from this real estate agent. Julie will take the time to help you find what you want and need, at your pace. Super thankful to have found a real estate like her. Thanks Julie! - Alex Vargas & Nana Asiama

I would highly recommend Julie to friends and family as her professionalism made for a quick sale at our asking price. Her helpfulness helped to guide us from the start to finish of the selling process so it went smoothly. - Laura Timmins

Julie was wonderful. We were beginners in this whole buying a home phase, and she was super knowledgeable and patient with us. One thing we definitely enjoyed was being able to receive responses quickly. She was committed to making sure we felt comfortable and understood everything . - Tiffany

Buying a house for the first time is quite a nerve-racking experience, not to mention trying to do it in a pandemic. However, Julie was fantastic throughout the entire process. She provided a guiding hand and was very patient and understanding, explaining the ins and outs, pros and cons of everything we were seeing and doing. It very much felt like she had my best interests in mind, which helped when navigating the multiple bid presentations we had to participate in to be competitive. I was very happy and would recommend Julie to friends in the future. - Jamie

Julie is amazing! She was not only knowledgeable but she was also patient and flexible, working with us through multiple offers and as we agonized about how to deal with crazy market forces. She offered direct and candid advice every step of the way and we feel she was genuinely looking out for our interests which is something I know is not very common - Blessing

A few words to describe this awesome human; Professional, Passionate, Knowledgable, Patient, Committed, Responsive, and she fights for her clients. In the crazy market that was the first quarter of 2021 she not only got us a house in a million-dollar+ neighborhood, she ensured that we paid under asking through her skillful negotiation. I will recommend Julie any day. - Aykay Woro

Julie is an excellent real estate agent. She is kind, professional, knowledgable, patient and so much more. She had our condo staged beautifully which led to a great first offer - and consequent sale! Look no further for an agent. Julie will not disappoint. - Lori Fiorentino

I’ve known Julie for a number of years! I’ve worked with a number of realtors in my career and am confident to say that without a doubt I would refer Julie to any of my clients , family & friends! She is professional, honest and very patient which in my opinion are the top three attributes a realtor should exhibit. You will not be disappointed! Julie is exceptional!! - Denise

Julie was an amazing help to me and my brother who have been in crunch time trying to find a Toronto apartment. With only 2 weeks left before our moving date and both being remote, Julie was able to tour many apartment complexes on behalf of us and do everything she could virtually to get us set up at our new place. With the pandemic it could have been incredibly stressful, but Julie made it so much easier on both of us. She is professional, easy to get ahold of and responds quickly, and was able to answer any/all questions we had. Thank you Julie! - Alannah Pedde

As first time home buyers, we expected a very nerve wrecking experience as told by our friends, but Julie made it pleasant. With her knowledge and experience, my husband and I were able to purchase our first home and navigate through the real estate industry. Definitely recommended to all our friends and family. - Natalie and Vuong

Before choosing a real estate agent, we conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best choice based on selling the property. We spoke with Julie Branco (Chan Real Estate Group) and then met with her at our home. She was at our home way ahead of the scheduled appointment time, which is a plus in our book. She spent a lot of time answering our questions, providing objective data and providing info on comparisons in the area. Julie made the process incredibly easy and took extra steps like staging the property, having professional photographs taken, and a lot more. When we saw our listing we were blown away. Her hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off, our listing looked amazing and knocked out the competition. Our Condo went under contract 8 days after we put it on the market. We accepted and Julie walked us through every step of the closing process. It couldn't have been a more pleasant experience. Julie also helped us with the purchase of a Condo. In short, she was always on our side working to make our condo purchase as simple and successful as possible. We would highly recommend Julie to anyone. Thanks Julie. Carm & Sav. - Carm & Sav

Julie is a helpful and professional agent. She sold our house in one day. She assisted in helping us find a home stager which made our house very appealing to buyers. She did more than what was required. She even assisted us with our movers. Making sure that all our things are in order. We would highly recommend Julie whenever you would like to sell or buy a house. - Philip & Dee Javier

Julie was a pleasure to work with and an amazing real estate agent with a great depth of knowledge. She never left any questions unanswered and always responded promptly to calls, texts, and emails. Julie guided my family and I to our new home, seemingly effortlessly, with grace and good humour. I highly recommend her as a real estate person, and a wonderful human being. And I will never look at floors the same way again! :) - Judy Ward

Southern California - November 2018 - and I have a feeling I may need to purchase a home in the GTA.  I begin by contacting GTA realtors and wait for emails and callbacks, of which I receive absolutely none.  I then leave a message for Julie Branco and from 2500 miles away, she calls me back.  I explain my situation about moving back to Ontario and the rest was the following successful sequence of events.  March 2019 - Toronto - I visit the GTA and even though my move might not be crystal clear, Julie invests the time to show my wife and I a couple homes.  July 2019 - Toronto - I am back in town and Julie shows me a couple more places. July-September 2020, Julie shows my family several places across GTA and we finally purchase in Vaughan.   Why am I writing this review?  Well, there is no way you will find another agent as knowledgeable about GTA homes and communities, approachable regarding your family's personal needs, responsive to your schedule when you are ready to view homes and dedicated to helping you when you ask.   When I asked about her perspective about her profession, she stated "I just love what I do".  Her passion and dedication truly shows not just in her words but action. During the time of a pandemic and insane price hikes, Julie was really the deciding factor in our success in finding a home (under asking!).  Her list of lawyer, inspector and mortgage specialist contacts made our first-time home buying experience in Canada a truly successful one. My family and I are grateful to have found Julie and are really lucky to had events play out the way they did.  If you are looking to close out a successful endgame in the GTA real estate market (even if you are an out-of-towner like me) look no further than Julie Branco. - Galen Szeto

Julie was very responsive to my questions. She would get back almost immediately. Julie helped me find the best house for my budget and requirement. It is all the little things that made the difference. - Amyn

Julie Branco is a very professional and kind real estate agent. She tells you what you need to know, and not what you want to hear, in other words, she is not phony. I would recommend Julie Branco to anyone looking to buy a house. My wife and I had a very pleasant experience in working with Julie. - Kevin Bontius

Julie is an extremely hard worker, very knowledgable but not pushy. She helped me find my home from a realtor before it went to market. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone looking to buy or sell. - Sunny Daljit

Julie went absolutely over and above what would be expected when helping us rent our first home as new immigrants in the GTA. She was thoughtful, kind and always professional and prompt in replying. You can tell she genuinely loves kids and she was great with our children. Would completely recommend. - Sophie and Nathan

Julie is efficient and quick to respond to your queries. She gave us the right set of information to make better quality decisions. She understood our needs very well and gave the necessary inputs accordingly. We have already recommended Julie to our friends and family. - Tabitha Venugopal

From our first meeting with Julie we felt like we were in great hands. There was no pressure to buy. We always felt like she was genuinely interested in getting us a home that we loved and as first time home buyers she explained EVERYTHING! - Kiran

When we were planning to sell our house, we talked to a couple of a agents. None of them came prepared and just talked about all the houses they had sold over asking. I know money is important and you want to come ahead but what about service?? We found Julie online and decided to give it a try. She came prepared with market research and talked about the things she was going to do to sell the house and explained everything in detail. I was skeptical at first as it seemed too good to be true, but my wife had made her mind on Julie. After we signed the contract, she took over and managed the contractor. She staged the house so beautifully that I did not feel like moving. It was just mind-blowing what Julie can do with staging. In the end, she got multiple offers and we sold the house to someone that appreciated the property and paid a fair market price. Money is important but service equally matters. All realtors can sell but doubt they can offer Julie’s experience and professionalism. - Satish Tahiliani
