A wise man once said "you can learn from your own experiences and in time you will be much wiser, but the price you pay may be very high; or you can learn from the experiences of others and be much wiser now at no cost to you. "

Dear Frank,

You did what I was beginning to think was the impossible - selling our townhouse. We had it on the market just a couple of months ago with another Realtor. It was up for 6 months and just wouldn't sell. Our Realtor had every excuse in the book; the carpets aren't new, you have kids, you have pets (2 dogs + 2 cats). By the end of the 6 months he was blaming everything under the sun. Bottom line, he just couldn't sell it. When we requested advertising in any way he just had a mouthful of excuses why he wouldn't do it. In 8 days a great deal was signed, sealed and delivered with you. The buy; What good is selling if you move into anything less than your dream home? When we sold; the 'inventory' of available houses in the location and price range for us was at the bare minimum. But you showed us The house the first time out. When we got there and found out after falling in love with it that there was already 2 other offers working on it and within the next couple of hours it would be sold to someone else you worked fast and used amazing negotiating skills and got it for us that afternoon. Now, we're just 4 weeks away from moving in and we're really anxious. A thousand thanks Frank for making our impossible task turn into the fulfillment of our dreams

Sincerely, Anne D.

Dear "Leo The Lion"

In the spring our home was listed with a different Realtor for approximately 3 months but was not sold. When we relisted with "Leo The Lion". To our surprise, a firm offer was in and our house was sold in 20 days. Thanks for a job well done and handled very professionally. We would have no problem recommending you to anyone thinking seriously of selling property. You can be assured your property is going to sell and faster than you can imagine.

Your very truly, Marilyn & John M..

P.S. Our compliments to Remax West for a professional, well mannered, efficient staff.

Dear Marilyn & John,

My staff and I would like to thank you for this wonderful surprise. The Lion Cake you sent was absolutely amazing! Everyone is still talking about it, not only did it look good it tasted great, too!

Dear Frank,

We had our house for sale for 6 months, and we had only 5 showings and that included open houses. Needless to say we received no offers and were very frustrated. When the property expired we interviewed 3 agents. One was recommendation from a friend, the second was an agent from the neighborhood and the third was an agent that did a lot of advertising. We decided to go with "THE LION" because his aggressive and dynamic approach. We had more showings in one week period than in six months prior. Within one week we received 2 offers and sold our home for 99% of our asking price. We have and will in the future recommend Frank Leo to any of our friends and relatives looking to buy or sell a home. We are extremely happy and satisfied.

Thank you Frank, Vincy L

Dear Frank,

The dust has settled, the boxes are unpacked, there are pictures on the walls and the tea pot is well and truly in service. We are home, in our new house in Kingston, thanks to you and your colleagues in Toronto and to your choice of Realtor for us in Kingston. We would like to express our special thanks to you for the way you handled the negotiations for the sale of our house in Rexdale. An identical house had been on the market for eighteen months, you remember. The buyers for our house were on the doorstep in three days and in another three days the deal was done. Your presence, your forceful negotiation skills and your wise counsel to us, enabled us to sell our house in record time. We should also like to include your staff for the extremely helpful and courteous way they looked after the many details relating to the sale of our house and the purchase of our new home in Kingston.

Best wishes for a great year.

Your sincerely Doug and Betty G.

Dear Frank,

We want to thank you for the excellent service you provided in the sale of our house. You are a true professional. The visible exposure of our property, your contiguous feedback and above all, your sincerity and helpful attitude are most commendable. If all real estate agents are of your quality, it's not deserving the unsavory reputation the industry is labeled with. You have our assurance that your name will be recommended to our relatives and friends. We hope you are successful in all your endeavors. Stay in touch.

Yours sincerely Joseph and Connie V.

Dear Frank

My daughter and her husband were under a deadline to sell their home in Etobicoke and were becoming increasingly frustrated and anxious since they had received only a few showings and no offers with the agent they had appointed. They consequently decided to obtain another agent and, being impresses with the TV and newspaper advertising of Frank Leo, they met him, which only served to reinforce their decision to list with him. Frank Leo is a true professional who instilled in them a sense of security and optimism and, as he had predicted, immediately had two or three showings a day, together with five offers, culminating after 2-1/2 weeks in the closing of a sale at a figure of 97% plus of their listing price. To anyone who is wishing to sell his home, I would urge that he or she contact Frank Leo The "LION" in order to acquire the skills of an agent who is probably the best in the field, one who is supportive, caring and can be relied upon to return calls promptly whilst, at the same time, stimulating incredible activity in the selling of one's home.

Dear Frank,

You were so successful in selling our home quickly that our move caught up with us much quicker than expected, and we're only now catching up on things. We wanted to write to thank you for your professional and caring approach, which resulted in the sale of our house within hours at close to our asking price. We had listed our house once previously, and endured the uncertainty for months, not to mention the hassle and inconvenience of showings and open houses, which are especially difficult with pets and young children. So when we decided to sell we carefully researched and interviewed to select the best agent to meet our needs. Initially we were concerned that your approach was somewhat gimmicky, but as we interviewed agents it was readily apparent that you were far more professional and business like than others. It was clear that you know your business well, and we were confident that you would sell our home in the shortest time, at the best price and least hassle. Our confidence proved justified. We went to the cottage Friday evening, telling you to start showing on Saturday. On Sunday you called us at the cottage to say you had two offers. When we returned Monday we sold the house, very close to our asking price, without even having to endure a single showing. Meanwhile a neighbor's house was on the market for months, and still was listed the day we moved. We've had no hesitation in recommending you to all of our friends, and if we ever need to buy or sell real estate again, there's no question you'll have our business.

Our thanks sincerely, Debbie and Bill

Dear Frank,

I just wanted to thank you for a job well done! I've tried selling my home on a few occasions and never got results. I kept seeing and hearing about "The Lion", so I decided to see what you could do for me. From the day you listed the property, I could see that you never stopped working. I had an incredible number of showings and in only two weeks my property SOLD. You made it happen! I was impressed with your professionalism and honest character. You told me what you were going to do to sell my property and did exactly what you said you would. You also kept me informed with progress of my sale but most importantly you delivered! I know NOW why the ad reads "The Lion" did it again. To anyone seriously wanting to sell their property "The Lion" is truly working harder for you! Thanks again Frank!!

Sincerely, Steve R.

Dear Frank,

Please except our thanks and congratulations for a job well done! When my mother moved from the house she has lived in for over 36 years to a nursing home, my husband and I assumed the responsibility of selling her house for her. As we live several miles north of Toronto, and could not be there all the time we knew we needed an agent with integrity and reliability. While cleaning and tidying mother's home in preparation for placing it on the market, we read the local papers and realty ads and realized quickly that Frank Leo "THE LION" was the agent we wanted. My husband called the Re/Max office and was pleased that you returned his call promptly. You were very helpful and put our minds at ease immediately with your positive attitude and enthusiasm. In one short week you arrived at our door with four excellent offers. We accepted one of those offers and my mother was delighted to know that her home had been sold for more than the listed price! We would like to take this opportunity to also thank the other agents and support staff at Re/Max, especially Janet and Tony who were both very friendly and helpful. Thanks again Frank, for making the sale of mother's home a positive experience.

With sincere gratitude, Al and Diane S.

Dear Frank,

Lisa & I wanted to take this opportunity to offer you our sincere "Thank You" for another job well done. This is the second time we used your services for selling of our home and the second time that you amazed us with your abilities and professionalism. There was never any doubt as to selling our home with you, yet for the amount that you sold it for and how quick it went left us shaking our heads. You are truly the master marketer. We had a challenge for you concerning a lengthy closing which you sad "No Problem" and sent out the word. Next thing we know, we have an offer after only three days on the market, we sold for 98% of our asking price AND we got our 6-month closing date. Frank, Lisa and I would never hesitate to recommend you to any of our friends, family or neighbors. Good Luck!

Sincerely, Alec & Lisa M.

Dear Frank,

As we are sitting in out new home, absorbing what just happened in our lives, my husband and I have decided to write you this letter expressing our appreciation for the special care you gave us with the sale and purchase of our new home. From the time we decided to make this move, you went to work making our house more sellable, in a marketing point of view, and also by personally getting involved with the showability of the house. Not only did you demonstrate great professionalism and knowledge of the real estate business, you've added a personal touch and care that we will never forget. You're a true friend! We would recommend Frank Leo "The Lion" to anyone that needs to buy or sell real estate, a professional you can truly trust!!

Thank you Frank! Tina & Phil R

Dear Frank,

We are pleased to have this opportunity to be able to write this letter and thank you personally for the unbelievable service in both selling our house, as well as purchasing our dream home in a very short period of time. All the questions we had were answered with all the concern for our wishes and desires, as well as the experience that only a top notch professional in the industry could possibly provide. The amount of time spent with us in both selling our house, as well as finding our dream home, was more than anyone could expect and was a very interesting and enjoyable experience. Your attention to our personal needs, wishes, as well as our dreams, in the most friendly and professional manner possible, was a rare treat indeed, as we have never experienced the kind of personal service and dedication that was given to us by anyone, ever, in any business. It is not very common in today's world to receive the kind of service that you provided us in all the dealings we had together. Should we ever need a real estate professional, again you are definitely number one on our list; but having just helped us find the dream home we never expected, unfortunately we doubt we will be moving soon. Thanks again for the professionalism and dedication. It is truly appreciated.

Yours very truly, Paul & Nadia S.

Dear Frank,

We would like to thank you for everything you did to sell our home. Deciding to sell was a very difficult and emotional decision so your expertise was greatly appreciated. We will never forget Nov 10th @ 11:30 PM when we finally sold our home, and to think it was listed only on Nov.6th!!! Truly our prayers were answered.

All the best Frank Paul & Tracey K., Ruth Anne & Ferguo D.
