Michael John Lau

We reached a point in our lives where our house had become too big for us, and we started thinking about downsizing. After an exhaustive search on social media combing through realtor profiles and watching videos of sales pitches, we decided that Michael and Neeraj of Exp Realty was the best fit for us. They carried themselves in a highly professional manner, humble in character, exceedingly proactive, and very easy to communicate with, among other things. But the key qualities that made Michael and Neeraj standout from all the rest was their consistency and persistence throughout the entire process of selling our home. They provided invaluable data collected and organized in up to date reports with respect to the “comps” or the value of recently sold homes similar to our property in the area. Latter reports allowed us to make strategic adjustments to target asking price of our home that generated multiple offers which ultimately led us to the right buyer in a very expeditious manner. Our financial targets were fulfilled. Hands down Michael and Neeraj checked all the boxes. Michael and Neeraj also helped us find the right home to downsize to. Its been two weeks since we moved in and we are in heaven. We encourage everyone looking to buy or sell a home to seriously take into account the data surrounding current real estate market. We would definitely recommend Michael and Neeraj to help you find your dream home - Roberto Sanchez

Michael made selling my condo a much easier experience than I expected. He was realistic about the market, helped me understand what we needed to do to position the property properly, and kept me informed throughout the process.

I’m very happy with the result and would definitely recommend Michael to anyone looking to sell a condo in Markham. - Masie Liang

Michael made our relocation to Markham much easier than we expected. Since we were moving for work, we had a tight timeline and weren't very familiar with the different neighbourhoods. Michael took the time to understand what we were looking for, explained the pros and cons of each area, and helped us narrow down the best options. He was incredibly responsive and moved quickly whenever a new property became available. Thanks to his local knowledge and guidance, we found the perfect starter home that fit both our needs and our budget.

We had to sell our Markham condo during a really chaotic time for our family, right in the middle of navigating some difficult personal situations. Honestly, trying to prep a place for a move felt completely overwhelming, but Michael and Neeraj stepped in and did a lot of the heavy lifting for us. Michael helped with coordinating the sale of a bunch of household items we didn’t want, which was incredibly helpful and saved us so much stress. Their staging team did a wonderful job, and somehow they managed to get our place sold in just six days, which was amazing given how quiet the market was in January and February. They were great about communicating and adapting to what we needed. They are just really reliable, down-to-earth guys who genuinely support you through the whole process. - A. H.

Michael and Neeraj were reliable, dedicated partners throughout our entire search for a new home. On the buying side, their support was excellent from start to finish. They attended numerous showings and home inspections with us, offered solid, practical feedback on properties, and closely followed up with our lawyer and the other realtors to ensure a smooth closing. They even sent a very thoughtful and practical housewarming gift once we officially moved in. They are communicative, highly professional, and great to work with. We highly recommend them! - R. L.

It was time to downsize and I came across Michael John Lau on social media. I reached out and met Michael and his business partner and they obviously knew the area very well. The greatest value they brought was the preparation for sale. The staging was excellent, a proactive and comprehensive home inspection and detailed weekly feedback from viewers. Michael seamlessly helped the sale move along to closing with constant feedback. Now I am looking to the future and my next steps. The future looks bright! - Horace

I was honestly skeptical at first since I found Michael John Lau and Neeraj through social media, and the market was tough at the time. But from the very first phone call and initial visit, they showed true professionalism and confidence. They gave a clear and accurate analysis of my home, provided great advice on preparation, and marketed it to the right buyers by highlighting what made our home unique. Their team worked extremely hard day to day, stayed on top of buyer interest, and negotiated carefully to reach a fair, win-win outcome. They didn’t just focus on closing a deal, they focused on getting the best result for everyone involved. This experience showed me that not all real estate agents are the same. Highly recommend Michael, Neeraj, and their team. - Ernie Lau

Selling our home felt like a huge task, but working with Michael made the entire process feel smooth and stress free.
