Kirk Fournier

Where do I begin? The Just Shout Wilma Team is unlike any other. The level of care, expertise, guidance, and support we received from purchasing and selling our home was above and beyond we could have imagined. COVID couldn’t get them down, and it didn’t. It all started when we started house hunting with Kirk. He gave us the best advice to look at homes to give us a sense of what we ‘do’ and ‘don’t’ want for our next house. This allowed us to get our feet wet, so to speak. After much looking, it was then at our next appointment that Wilma accompanied us, that we found our perfect new home. After walking through the house, we knew immediately it was the one and so did Wilma. Her confidence and sense of peace allowed us to move forward with even greater confidence to put in an offer. With great advice, guidance, and counsel from Wilma and Kirk, we put in the best offer that we could give. Sure enough it was accepted! We were so thrilled! We are so excited to move into our new home! But before that could begin, we needed to sell our current home. The next phase then began. To give some context, we have a large family of five kids aged 5 years old and under. You can imagine the various artwork and creative touches that our children have made in our home over the years. With this, we had to go under renovations to prepare our home to be put on the market. Wilma and Holly’s eye for pre-sale renovations gave us a list of ‘things to do’ before we sold. They provided the most amazing, efficient, reliable, committed, and generous team of contractors; Arris and Burr (Mark and Andy). Their handiwork, skillful eye, and extensive expertise in home repair and pre-sale preparations were of the highest quality. We are so grateful to Andy and Mark! Wilma also came equipped with top-notch service of flooring and kitchen countertop experts. On top of all of that, Guy installed and “smart-homed” our lighting with Google nest technology. We were so impressed and excited! It immediately transformed our space. Holly, who is an amazing interior designer, finished it all with such gorgeous staging.   Within less than two week’s time the house was ready! It transformed to a magazine dream worthy home. It was unbelievable how beautiful everything turned out that we hardly recognized it! The level of excellence that resulted in our home’s transformation was just the beginning of what was a sale of a lifetime. With much excitement and anticipation, our home was listed on the market. With an expertly picked listing price, we knew that we would get some attraction and traffic with our home. However, we were amazed with the amount of appointments made to see our home and the total number of offers. We received over 300 appointments and on top of that, we received over 60 registered offers on offer day! Wow, wow, wow! With Wilma and Kirk’s expert negotiations, they were able to navigate through the many offers and got us top dollar results of one amazing offer that no one could have imagined. Our house sold in five days and sold for more than $200,000 over list price! We couldn’t believe it! The sale of our home not just helps our new home, but secures the future of our family! We could not be where we are today without the Fournier family. I write all of this because I hope you read it and sense how much they mean to us. They are an unbelievable, Godsend of a real estate team. Their hard work, attention to detail, and years of expertise in the real estate market (to name a few but I could go on!) proved more than true during the process of our purchase and sale. We wouldn’t trust anyone else. When I say they’re the one, you better believe it. Just Shout Wilma! You won’t regret it! - Jorielle and Tyler Seidenberg

Our experience with Wilma literally could not have been better! We called her on a Tuesday and by Saturday we were off to see houses. Serendipitously, the first house we saw, we absolutely fell in love with; we immediately knew it was the one! Unfortunately, they weren’t looking at offers until Wednesday. As Wilma, and her husband Guy, took us around to see the other properties on our list, she was in constant communication with the listing agent of our dream home. Every house we visited, she would give us an update on the situation as she was able to get more and more of a negotiating foothold. A mere four hours later, we were sitting in their office drafting up an offer that wasn’t even supposed to be considered for another four days! Wilma was kind, honest and confident. Her years in the business proved their weight in gold as she deftly guided us through the offer and subsequent negotiation! By the end of the night, after only meeting in person 9 hours earlier, we had bought our forever home! Having Wilma and Guy take us under their wing and walk us through the process was incredibly reassuring and a truly genuine experience. If you are looking to buy in Oakville or Burlington, these should be the only people you call! We are unshakably certain we would not have gotten this house without them. We can never thank them enough for making this happen and obviously recommend them in a heartbeat! Thank you Wilma and Guy! - Jesse Kilroy and Ryan Collins

When we decided to sell our house in Oakville, we knew how important it was to have the right realtor that would work with our best interests in mind. It was also important that our realtor was an expert in this quickly changing market. We interviewed 6 different realtor teams and chose Kirk and the Wilma Fournier team to sell our home. Both Kirk and Wilma answered our many questions thoroughly with data and facts to back up their recommendations. They invested in making sure that we would attract many potential buyers by making valuable tips/changes to improve our home before it went on the market. They also installed a smart home system for us and staged our home wonderfully. We had a chance to work with Kirk, Wilma, Guy and Holly and each one of them is an expert in their area of this process. When it came time to go on the market, we had many, many showings and the team kept in touch with us throughout the entire process. When it came time to review multiple offers, the team diligently negotiated to get us a firm sale, well above asking, that met our specific needs (longer close date). We are so glad that we chose Kirk and the Wilma Fournier team to handle this process, they made everything so easy and stress free. We would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell in this area. - Dawn and Chris

On our first call, Kirk spent an hour explaining the recent movements in the market, the landscape in the area that we were looking to buy in, his experiences with his own rental properties and the comprehensive services that he and his team ensure all of their clients have access to. Over the course of a few months, Kirk dedicated countless hours to answering all of our many questions, providing strong analyses on properties that we were interested in, coordinating with our parents for viewings, and ultimately landed us the largest house that we had viewed for 10k under our top offer. Kirk’s passion for his profession is evident. The dedication that he showed to helping us reach our goal was beyond what we had expected. On only a few hours notice, he arranged for 3 viewings on a Sunday evening because our target property was unexpectedly reviewing offers the next day. Adverse weather didn’t stop him from making sure that we had all of the information we needed to make our decision. Thank you so much, Kirk! - Matt

The Fournier Family provided us with superb experience as we purchased our new home and sold our previous condo. In the wild GTA real estate market of early 2021, their intimate knowledge of the current environment and savvy negotiating skills allowed us to secure a wonderful bungalow in west Burlington for a fantastic price. As well, the condo we sold received almost 40 viewings over 4 days, multiple offers and a winning bid 25% over asking. We couldn’t have been more shocked or thrilled with the results! For a smooth experience from the initial phone call to the celebratory champagne when you close your deal, we would highly recommend the services of Kirk, Wilma, Holly and Guy. Thanks again for your hard work! - Stephen & Chelsey

Kirk and his team made purchasing a home a wonderful experience! From day one he listened to our goals and what we wanted. He walked us through every step, making what is normally a very stressful time, a completely enjoyable experience! He was honest, knowledgable, quick to respond and walked us through the whole process (even if this meant many phone calls and emails)- he took the time to talk us through each time never feeling rushed in any way. I would highly recommend Kirk and his team to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. - Christine Horton

Kirk was our realtor as we were trying to buy our first home in a complex situation. We were living in another province, during the pandemic, we had a limited budget, and were looking for a very particular type of property in a limited geographic area. Kirk came though with great communication, making the process super straightforward. He made us feel comfortable the whole time, and got us the biggest property we had seen in that price point, making us the winners of a 14 person bidding war at a great price (after the house was on the market for only 1 day). Kirk is detail oriented, knows his regulations well, and has great insight into how to negotiate during bidding wars (emphasis on this last point because we really couldn’t have done this without him!). He puts in effort to make sure you see the houses you’re interested in (even during a windstorm!) and will give you his honest advice (even if it’s not what you want to hear but need to hear). He never once pressured us to submit a price we were not comfortable with and he identified possible concerns with homes, while we had our rose coloured glasses on. His experience with investment properties or homes that have renters in them helped us be informed and protected as we were doing our search. He also works with a great network of people around him, and though we didn’t get to work with the rest of the Fournier team, his recommendation of mortgage advisor was one of the main reasons we were able to make all of this happen so quickly. Could not recommend Kirk enough and wish him all the best going forward! - Ivana

Kirk was incredibly helpful in helping us navigate a very overwhelming market. Not only did he help us find our new home and purchase it at what we felt was under market value, but he helped us sell our townhouse at over market value. We couldn’t be happier with the service he provided us! We would recommend him to anyone. Thank you Kirk! - Marissa

What most impressed us about Kirk was his knowledge of the market and his relentless pursuit to achieve the greatest success for our sale. Kirk is incredibly professional, but also approachable. We called him multiple times with questions, which he not only answered, but we also never felt rushed. He spent time explaining the process to us and his approach to the sale. Selling a home can be very tiring and frustrating, yet Kirk took much of the work off of our shoulders. This included (but was not limited to) outfitting our home with smart home technology and staging our home with a beautiful design. We have used Kirk twice in the selling of our home and have sold over asking both times. Kirk is a wonderful person and extremely brilliant at what he does. - Dmitri and Melissa Lee

Kirk was the best! He was thorough and professional and great to work with. He always managed to get us viewings within a day of a house being listed (a must in the current market!) and was always available to answer our questions and support us through the process. He was honest and forthright, and was a wealth of knowledge. I honestly believe we wouldn't have been able to buy our dream home if not for Kirk going above and beyond for us. - Natasha Leadbeater

Kirk Fournier is extremely knowledgeable and adept at his practice. He has years of experience buying and selling. I've gone through him twice for buying and once for selling and I genuinely believe I got the most out of my purchases and transactions. He works 24/7, is always punctual with responses and deadlines, and is very practical when it comes to his job. I highly recommend Kirk, he is a step above even the most accomplished realtor. - Michael Jansen

We’ve had the pleasure to work with Wilma, Guy, Kirk and Holly of the Fournier team and they have been nothing but supportive and very attentive to our needs as we searched for our new home. Everyone in this exceptional family/team have made us feel comfortable while going through a very busy search period spread over many months. They never lost sight of our dream home (nor patience) as they guided us through the recent challenging market where prices are continuing to rise. They were all professional whilst being personable as they listened to our, not so easy, demands. When we make our next move, hopefully after at least a few years, we will call them to once again take care of our needs, and so should anyone needing a strong but caring agent. Thanks guys - Jim

Kirk and his team did an outstanding job from start to finish with selling our property. They came into our condo and made recommendations on quick touch-ups to improve the overall look. After his team staged the home and took care of any questions from perspective buyers. Their photographer took great pictures. They created a first class brochure and used social media, among other forms of advertising, to market our home. Kirk was transparent with his selling strategy, while taking into consideration our ideas and opinions. The MLS write-up he made was concise, while highlighting all the key selling features of our home.  Our home sold in less than a week. We had multiple offers and the winning bid was above anything we could have expected! I would recommended Kirk and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. - Mike Amatiello

Kirk is very knowledgeable and he went above and beyond making sure we were taken care of in every single way (e.g., he took the time to explain everything to us, he provided us with statistics and data on the property, he was professional yet made us feel like we are family, he is efficient and extremely honest). We are very happy with the property and know it is a good investment. Thank you Kirk for having our best interest and taking care of us. We will definitely be recommending you to all our family and friends ! - Abraam Dawod

Awesome experience with top-notch customer service!!! One of the best agents I've come across and certainty in Oakville. Keep up all great work Kirk and your team - David Sharma

Wilma, who is amazing, was able to quickly get us in for a viewing and we put in an offer that same evening, which was successful (despite there being multiple offers). Through the years, I have emailed her for advice/information and I have received a prompt, compassionate and helpful response. - Gay Gretton

We love the Fourniers. They are knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and always working hard to make the lives of their clients better. Their positive energy is refreshing. They made house buying a positive experience. - Shana

We were referred by friends after having no luck with another agent. From the first hello we knew we could trust them. They didn’t give us false hopes. Holly was wonderful in staging our house Guy was amazing installing our smart home system and Wilma she may be small but she is mighty! Our house was sold in 2 days and over asking price.  Would strongly recommend - Michael Lindsay

Amazing guidance and recommendations throughout the buying process. Every step of the transaction was carefully explained to a new buyer like us. We hope to use their services again for our next purchase. - Ali

Incredible customer service for both selling and buying; listens to customer wants & needs and remembers them and can provide rational for showing properties against them.  Amazing knowledge of available properties and in matching relevant listings to my needs and can point out how other features would be a bonus or potential issue to individual needs and can explain differences.  Very professional in appearance and demeanor while still being friendly and comfortable to be with. - J Walker

Kirk was helpful and was very responsive to all of our needs in finding our home. If we ever need to move again I know the team will be our first call! - Christine Seidenberg

Kirk and the team were great, he was very helpful and knowledgeable. We saw multiple homes and when this one came up we were confident in our purchase. Would highly recommended Kirk to anyone looking. - Joel Wilson

The Whole team was amazing! The whole transition was smooth. Our house sold within 2 days over asking price. I would definitely recommend! The whole team rocks! Wilma, Guy, Kirk and Holly were a pleasure to work with from the first meeting to the day of closing - Irene

Kirk has always been very knowledgeable and helpful in all our deals. We have been with the Fournier team for 6 years and through 6 deals would never go anywhere else! They cover everything from A to Z and make the entire process easy! Plus it helps that they always deliver the best results! - Aly

Couldn’t appreciate Kirk’s professionalism enough. He had incredible amounts of knowledge about the real estate industry as well as building construction. He is very personable and listens to his clients. Will definitely be using Kirk for my next real estate transaction. - Brandon MacKendrick

Overall awesome to work with. Great knowledge. Saved us a lot of time and money. Looking forward to working with Kirk again to buy our second home next year (and sell the first). - Michael Hanna

Kirk has been so helpful and knowledgeable as we navigate searching for a home. He had had such valuable advice and insight that first time home buyers need to be aware of. I highly recommend his services. - Natalie MacKendrick

Highly recommend Kirk and his team. We’ve now completed two purchases with him and both times he was extremely organized, knowledgeable and efficient to ensure we settled the deal! - Laura Ostapchuk

Kirk and his amazing team are the best in the business. My wife and I had their expert help in selling our Mississauga home, and we’ve recommended them to several of our close friends. The custom-built bungalow that they found us on Hamilton mountain is a gem. Do yourself a favour and give him a call today! - David G. Bruce

Amazing service. We sold our house and bought a new one through the Fournier team. We were very pleased with all aspects of their service. Would never use another agent for any of our future real estate transactions. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to know how to buy or sell a house. - Iren Koltermann

Kirk is professional and knowledgeable. Willing to go the extra mile to ensure his clients get the deal that is appropriate for them. Whether it's owner-occupied or for investment purposes, Kirk makes the process easy. - Mike Hogeboom

Kirk and the Fournier team are excellent at putting your mind at ease when it comes to the biggest transaction of your life. They were there for us throughout the process and anticipated our questions and concerns - they treated us like family and not as a transaction. - David Hopkinson
