My husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better partner in our home-buying journey than Mike Kearns, founder of The Kearns Group—a prominent and highly focused real estate team specializing in the southern Georgian Bay area, including Thornbury, where we were looking to move after living in Toronto our entire lives.
As we transitioned from Toronto to Thornbury in search of a more relaxed yet still active lifestyle in the Blue Mountains, Mike patiently guided us every step of the way over a two year period.
Mike’s knowledge of the Thornbury and broader Blue Mountains market is deep. He understands not just neighbourhoods, but the subtle nuances of individual streets - even down to which pockets command the highest value. Time and again, we were impressed by how accurately he could predict what a property would ultimately sell for.
What sets Mike apart is the breadth and consistency of his client service. He is organized, fact-based, and analytical. Importantly, he listens well and is insightful. He quickly understood exactly what we were looking for and was respectful of our time - never showing us homes that didn’t align with our needs. At the same time, he wasn’t afraid to thoughtfully nudge us outside our comfort zone to consider properties we might have otherwise overlooked.
Mike is calm, composed, and seemingly unflappable - but behind that demeanour is a sharp, strategic mind that is always working. He is an exceptionally strong negotiator who clearly understands what it takes to successfully navigate and close even the most challenging deals. His positive and well developed relationships with other agents were evident and beneficial, something we observed firsthand during showings.
He is also highly responsive, a clear and timely communicator, and someone we trusted implicitly. Discreet, consistent, and the consummate professional, Mike made what could have been a stressful process feel seamless. And as a bonus, Mike is a refined gentleman who has a fantastic and quick sense of humour that made the entire experience genuinely enjoyable.

Triple Verified Reviews
What Is Triple Verified
Every review on Rate-My-Agent.com is put through a strict three-part verification process to ensure authenticity and accuracy.

We use proprietary forensic tools to detect fake or manipulated reviews. Evidence is collected to meet legal standards for court use.

Why It Matters

Addresses & Edit Address
How do addresses work?
Addresses determine your ranking in each city or neighbourhood.
You only get to rank in a city or neighbourhood that you have a rating in.
Why do I need to edit addresses?
Occasionally clients will leave you a rating with the wrong address, or with the neighbourhood missing. To correct such problems and present your track record more accurately, we give you the ability to edit the address for all your ratings.
Will addresses be displayed on the rating?
No, ratings will only display the neighbourhood and city of each rating. We do store the street address associated with each rating. This data is kept private and may be used to verify transactions.
Updating Incorrect Information

Assuming you are Mike Kearns or a representative, you need to login to your account to update any information you see on this page.
Third Party?
