Testimonials  

" Darlene is one of a kind. Not only is she very responsive, she always made us feel like we were her top priority. She went above and beyond to track down information on properties we were interested in and she made our home buying experience fun, stress-fee and seamless. She loves what she does and it shows. She's a great real estate agent and an even better person! "

- Mel V.

" We have worked with a number of agents over the years both in Canada and the United States. Without question Darlene is far and above any of the others. We were buying in Ontario while living in Virginia. A difficult circumstance made seamless thanks to Darlene’s exemplary customer care. We are in the process of preparing for another real estate transaction. There is no question that Darlene will be our agent. On a scale of 1 to 5, Darlene is a 10! "

- Carol L.

" We listed and purchased multiple homes with Darlene. Her professional and personal approach made it easier to deal with all aspects from listing, presenting and final sale/purchase. Darlene goes well beyond to make sure we are represented, our home shows well and she surpassed our expectations every time. "

- Zoran R.

" Darlene goes above and beyond to make the buying and selling experience stress-free. She is professional, reliable and always has time to take your call, no matter how small the issue. We recently bought a house with Darlene and are now currently selling one with her. When we bought the house we were just browsing online and saw our dream home. We wanted to go see it but the realtor was unavailable to let us know if we could get in. One call to Darlene and we were in the house within a couple of hours! There were many back and forth, long negotiations, a few buyers and yet, Darlene managed to get us our dream home! When we needed to pack up and move...guess who rolled up her sleeves and did much of the heavy lifting? Darlene!! This is above and beyond anything we ever expected. When we ran out of boxes??? Our fairy-realtor had boxes, wrap and tape on our doorstep within 2 hours! Fast forward to now....we are selling our old home with Darlene. She is easy to work with, helpful and fast. Within a day of agreeing to our selling price she had a cleaner, carpet cleaner and stager lined up and ready to be in our home over the next 3 days. Every single time we call her we feel heard, we get a solution and walk away a bit calmer. Not only is she an expert who helped us through this experience with calm, intelligent, knowledgeable guidance, but her attention to detail and strong negotiation skills will for sure be an asset when selling our home. Thank you, Darlene. We would not have won our dream home or have navigated these past few months with such ease, if we hadn't found you. "

- Vanya J.

" Darlene is a true professional in every sense of the word. She is very transparent and works very hard on your behalf. We will definitely be using her again in the future. "

- Phil T.

" Darlene is a fantastic realtor and she went above and beyond to get our home prepared and staged for sale, priced properly for the market and sold. We felt well represented through both the sale of our home and the purchase of another. Selling a home is not just a financial process, it’s an emotional one. Darlene understands that and her ability to empathize made the process much easier. She was also able to advise on pricing and negotiate on our behalf to get the right deal for us. She is also a lot of fun and made the process a positive experience. You can’t go wrong choosing Darlene as your realtor. "

- Sharon S.

" Darlene was a great help when I lost my mother and had to take over the house and make it ready for sale. Darlene was instrumental on guidance getting house ready (de-junking), finding homes for some of the contents, cleaning and staging for best effect of the rooms. Darlene made me feel like I was not alone and walked me through every step of the way. Great job! Couldn't be happier with the results! "

- Kevin J.

" We always felt that our agent had our interests uppermost in her mind throughout the transaction process. In fact, in preparing our offer for the new house we were prepared to offer above asking and our agent recommended that we start at the asking price. We did and to our delight the owner agreed to our offer. We saved a considerable amount of money as a result. Also, our agent gave us valuable information on other possible service providers that we would potentially need throughout the entire real estate process, such as for staging, furniture storage, fence installation, real estate lawyers etc. All in all, a highly rewarding experience! "

- Martin M.

" Darlene McGinnis was very professional and always ready to help when required. She has shown us many houses and we have finally settled and purchased our little slice of paradise. We would definitely recommend her and actually, we have already recommended her to 2 of our friends. More to come. Excellent work on our behalf and lots of help and guidance. Thank you very much Darlene. "

- Nancy F.

- Anthony D.

" Overall great experience. It would be wise for any home buyer to utilize Darlenes services, she knows what shes doing. "

- Jacob G.

" Darlene is the best agent I have ever encountered in the realtor industry. She went above and beyond from the first time we spoke about getting my house up for sell. She went out of her way to be there with me every step of the way from decluttering to staging my house without hesitation she was right next to me throughout the whole 2 month process. In my opinion, Darlene deserves a metal or an award for how awesome she is as a person and a realtor, never leaving me behind and always having such an amazing heart for her clients! Let’s just say, if you choose Darlene as your realtor, you will NOT regret it and you will get the BEST care that any realtor has ever given to anyone!!!! THANKS A MILLION Darlene♥️♥️ "

- Michel and Carol L.

" Darlene McGinnis is an outstanding remarkable Agent! Darlene gets the job done! There are not enough stars or words to describe Darlene, than to say she's the Miracle Working Agent. Darlene genuinely cares about achieving the best outcomes for her clients. She is always readily available when needed to respond to all our questions and requests . Her expertise/ knowledge & professionalism in the Real Estate mark is above and beyond. We thought it was impossible to purchase our home; due to the increases in home prices and the extraordinary bidding market, however Darlene came through for us. Best Agent EVER! We will always recommend Darlene without any hesitation. You will never regret having Darlene working for you. Thanks again Darlene for your hard work. "

- Israel Family

" Darlene did extremely well from top to bottom on the house sale. She had awesome ideas that worked out well. She was fast at getting everything done or negotiated. Darlene did great and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to help sell their home. "

- Kurtis S.

" Darlene McGinnis has been a trusted real estate agent for me and my family for a number of years. She is knowledgeable and communicative throughout the process of selling my waterfront property as well as finding a luxury apartment for me to downsize. Her knowledge of the market made resulted in setting the best price to list the property. Her negotiating skills during the listing were invaluable and she explained everything through the whole process. Darlene handled all aspects of my transactions skillfully. Prior to placing the house on the market, Darlene and her team made my house look beautiful and inviting, they brought the most upscale staging items to display and even did some painting of walls and other repairs to make sure it looked its best. I received many comments about how beautiful, inviting and well cared for the house was. Darlene had taken me to view many properties, so when the house was sold, I was ready to put an offer on a gorgeous apartment. She handled that purchase flawlessly. She even helped to pack my belongings prior to moving. I had just lost my husband and so her care and support was invaluable and I will definitely use her for any further transactions. "

- Moyna C.

" Darlene helped us work through selling our house during a very uncertain market. She kept us informed throughout the process. "

- Teresa W.

" Darlene is a genuinely kind, honest and forthright individual. It was a pleasure to deal with her. She made us feel throughout the process that we were in capable, caring hands. "

- Brent L.

" Darlene was very professional and pleasant. She helped us to have the house ready for showings. There was a lot of work to be done and she physically and mentally helped us through the whole process. She was a huge blessing!! "

- Deborah S.

" Survey Ratings are fine but it generally doesn't tell the whole story. We were selling my Mom's house and in order to ensure we were dealing with the right Realtor we interviewed three of them. Darlene came across as confident, knowledgeable and empathetic to the situation of the family home of seven children needing to be sold. She worked hard to counsel myself and my two siblings involved from the start in the potential and ultimate goal of the sale of the house. Finally something else that impressed me was her compassion for others. 50 years in a house can amount to a lot of stuff. Darlene works with some local charities and as fast as we could stack up the donations in the garage it was taken away. Very little contents actually saw a dumpster. "

- Christopher P.

" Darlene is fantastic, can't say enough good things about her. Totally professional. Have used her with past dealings and would use NOBODY else except her moving forward ! Highly recommended. "

- Glenn P.

" Darlene was a great agent to have in our corner. She went above and beyond her duties which will not go unnoticed. We will definitely recommend her services to anyone who requires a Real Estate Agent. She adapts to all of the clients preferences/requests and makes it work. In my case, she helped with the sale of my recently widowed elderly mother. She takes the time to explain anything and everything in great detail so that the client understands. She is truly client-oriented. The rating for this Experience only goes up to 5, but truly, I would give her a 10+!!!! "

- Nancy F.

" Darlene is not your typical real estate agent. She provided excellent service for selling my house, including getting it professionally cleaned, staging it to look presentable, using top tier photographers and inspectors to cover any potential surprises that may come with the sale of the house and providing direction to me as the homeowner on what needed to get done to get the house looking in a perfect state. And she was managing each step of the process from start to finish. I definitely recommend Darlene! "

- Maciej K.

" Darlene is incredible at what she does! She was amazing to work with. She was patient and understanding with us. She went above and beyond during the whole process of house hunting. We were definitely struggling to find a home with the market being crazy at this time. One of the best things about working with Darlene, was that she was able to get back you and able to answer your questions. She showed knowledge to each house and location that she showed us. She was honest and always on time, so we were very comfortable. She is always positive and has a great sense of humor. We are soo happy with our decision to work with her :) We will definitely be contacting her in the future. "

- Julyann M.

" Darlene was always punctual, courteous and respectful of all request I made during the sale of my home. Extremely on mark when it came to offers and an excellent negotiator, Always available for any questions or concern no matter time of day or night. Excellent communicator in explaining what to expect when booking viewings and providing feed back from viewings and other realtors. I not only sold my home with Darlene I also purchased a new one with my daughter. I would highly recommend her to anyone and have already done so with confidence. "

- Dianna L.

" Darlene is a very kind and loving person. Beyond her professionalism, she will be the kind of person you would like to work with. She is able to share the emotions of her clients, as the real estate market is sometimes full of surprises. I also found that she had a lot of experience with home renovations and her advice was very helpful. I would highly recommend her to any new buyer and also advise you to have a good idea of your budget before moving forward. "

- Claudia O.

" Darlene worked so hard to make sure we closed the deal.our first lenders declined our offer at the closing date and Darlene worked so hard to make sure we get another lender before we loose the deal and incur penalties for breaching the contract. THAT MEANT LOOSING OUR DEPOSIT. She walked with me and my family until we got the deal finalized. This was my first house to buy and it was so difficult,we almost gave up ,but Darlene encouragement and support made us go through the difficult moments. It had been one year since we purchased this house ,and we cant regret meeting our Agent. Excellent customer service,reliable feedback and effective communication is her greatest commitment. "
