WORDS OF GRATITUDE

"For several years now, Lina from Postcard Homes has always been involved with buying, selling, and finding rental properties for my family and I. From my very first downtown Toronto bachelor condo, all the way to our resent home purchase they offered excellent service, advice and guidance during those stressful times.

No matter what time of day, if my wife and I had any questions or concerns during our various moves, Lina was always there for us. Not only answering questions, but also providing excellent referrals for movers, lawyers, and mortgage brokers. It's the kind of peace of mind that only experienced, friendly professionals can give, and its what to be expected the moment you hire them. ”

Client Reviews

The team was never daunted by difficult circumstances, and found a solution for everything.
— Mary
Professionalism, client service, sense of urgency and accessibility.

Lina was exceptionally helpful throughout the entire process - from first point of contact, to viewings, to lease negotiation and lease signing. He immediately understood the type of building, layout and unit we were searching for. She is not only knowledgeable but also personable and truly has the client’s best interest in mind. It’s rare to find a downtown realtor who embodies all these qualities.

We were extremely happy with the J&D experience and wouldn’t hesitate to refer Lina.
— Emily & Temmy
Lina is an outstanding real estate professional. We have worked with Lina on two transactions – first to purchase a home in the Riverdale neighbourhood and next to find renters when we needed to move.

Lina is highly knowledgeable about the market and skillful in handling complex negotiations. She is responsive, proactive and detail-oriented. She exceeded our expectations in providing timely, value-added guidance and advocating for our interest.

What stands out most about Lina is that she cares deeply about her clients and is committed to excellence. She understood our needs as a family, had patience for our many questions, and honoured our perspective at every stage of the process. Lina is a strong team on her own and we recommend her most highly.
— Carla & Chris
I have had the opportunity several times seeking her expertise in finding a home for myself. As of late, my siblings and I turned to Lina for help selling the condo my 100 year old mother owned. The condo sold in one day. Up to the selling day, Lina directed us to make the move somewhat easier by finding for me packing help, directed me to charities that would profit from its’ contents. I felt very fortunate to have Lina as a friend and the bonus of her true professionalism. i speak on behalf of my siblings also.
— Paula Ouimet
 
Thank you once again for your efforts last night and the work leading up to crunch time on offer night. Your guidance and guile last night really impressed us both. We have felt all along like we were in good hands with you, and you proved us absolutely that our trust in you was well placed. Thanks for having our backs and for helping to make this insane process surprisingly easy and successful.
— Adam & Lindsay
Lina took the time to talk through my ideas and current understanding of the market. She helped me to learn more of the technicalities involved in a purchase so that I could look at a variety of properties with an informed mind. With what I gained through them, I wasn’t intimidated by the process, which led me to explore options that I hadn’t even known existed.
— Kate
Lina was a caring professional throughout the entire process of selling our home. If I can give any advice to any prospective, nervous, “newbie” seller like me, it would be this: trust Lina’s selling strategy; she knows what she is doing!

This good person kept our needs and concerns uppermost at all times and in the end got us a wonderful price for our home. She is great!
Thank you!
— Carol & Michael
My wife and I are east enders at heart, so when we were looking to buy our first home, we knew we wanted to stay in the area. Lina came highly recommended by a very close friend, and we could not be more thankful to Lina (and our friend)! Lina gave us loads of practical and frank advice based on her years in the business and her knowledge of Toronto’s east end. In the end, she helped us put together an offer that landed us our dream starter home without a bidding war. Working with Lina was a pleasure - we would (and do) highly recommend her to our friends!

Your Used Furniture Will Change a Life

stackedlogo-teal.png

The Furniture Bank is a charity & social enterprise that collects gently used furniture from the community and transfers them to families transitioning out of homelessness or displacement.

There are over 30,000 people in the GTA alone that are living without or with inadequate furniture each year. Donations can play a transformational role in ensuring that all Canadians live with the dignity and stability of a furnished home.

Furniture is silent in its power. We understand the role of food, clothing and shelter in our lives but we often take furniture for granted, until we don’t have access to it. For our clients transitioning out of homelessness or displacement, furniture has a profound impact on their ability to live dignified and productive lives. Since 1998 the furniture bank has helped over 70,071 individuals and 28,854 families in need
