We needed a realtor to help us with a last minute bidding war listing we found in Caledonia. After searching "Best Real Estate Agent in Hamilton", we found Mark Woehrle. He was listed as the #1 realtor in Hamilton on rate my agent, and had an abundance of 5 star reviews on google as well. It was a shot in the dark considering we had to bid on the house in less than 48 hrs, but with stats like that we decided to give him a try. All I can say is the numbers don't lie! Mark was exceptional. The high praise is 100% deserved. We first reached out late on a Sunday night, expecting to get a text or call back later in the week, but he actually called us back within 20 minutes that same night. That kind of responsiveness stayed consistent the whole time we worked with him and was truly a difference maker in our tight deadline situation. Suffice to say, that bid fell through (thankfully), and we got to spend a lot of time with Mark and his team moving forward. Being first-time buyers, we were pretty overwhelmed with the Hamilton market and didn't know where to start. Mark and his team didn't just show us houses; they actually taught us what to look for. When we were looking at properties in Hamilton, Caledonia and the surrounding areas, he was great at pointing out potential red flags like cracked foundations, moisture in basements, older furnaces, and more potentially expensive cans of worms we weren't ready to handle. He was able to give us the run-down on neighbourhood stats and future developments that we never would have known about, like new roads, housing developments, and more. He was never pushy about offers, or "settling" on a place. He just wanted us to be comfortable, and have the knowledge to make the best decision for our situation. He ended up helping us vet a massive list of listings, booking tons of viewings around our crazy work schedules (full time shift work x2!!). Every house viewing day was exciting for us, cause we got to hang out with Mark for a few hours while driving around looking for our potential forever home. When we found the right one, the entire process was smoothly & expertly handled by Mark and his team. Timely emails, meetings, and phone calls were all scheduled as necessary throughout the process to ensure we were in the loop every step of the way. He even connected us with a solid home inspector and local contractors once we closed! If you want a team that actually works for you and knows the local market inside and out, call Mark and his team. You will not regret it. We’re so happy with our new place and couldn't have done it without them!
