Testimonials

Working in a career tailored to deliver superior customer experiences, I consider myself to have a high attention to detail as to how I get treated as a customer. From my first viewing to 6 months later when I finally moved into my home, I can’t say that I have ever felt more valued as a customer. Helen quickly grasped what my interests were and used that to guide me to the right places in an unfamiliar city. She is sharp, urgent, and has a great personality. But most important was her ability to speak honestly and direct with me. This allowed me to trust her judgement which transformed the entire home buying experience. Helen, it was a true pleasure working with you, thank you for all your hard work, sincerely one of the best professional relationships I have been a part of.

"Hi Helen...Just wanted to give you a big thank you for selling our house in 3 days. You are a great real state agent and you did a wonderful job again this time just like you did when you found this house for me 4 years ago. Your work is very much appreciated and your kindness and charisma make a big difference. You are the one I would recommend to anyone I know."
- Emi

Thank you Helen for helping us find a great house for our family. Your local knowledge was invaluable as was your expertise in facilitating the purchase. From a family who has moved a lot, your hard work is greatly appreciated.
- Doug and Anne

Hi Helen, I just wanted to send you a thank you for all your help with my mom. She had a really great experience with you and I'm so happy the two of you found a place that she loves. I knew she was in good hands when we met and I wish there were more Realtor's like you here in Toronto! Best Regards,
- Rob

I have known Helen for over 2 years. She was referred to me by a friend when I decided to sell my condo and buy a house. I was undecided about the area I wanted to live in and was also on the fence about leaving the comfort of condo living. Helen demonstrated patience and kindness throughout this whole process. I can’t even tell you how many houses we visited. We would often walk into a house and she would give me “that look” and I knew right away that she didn’t approve. Her basic rule was, If I wouldn’t buy this house I won’t let you buy it either. Her goal is to respect her client’s wishes more than making a sale. She was my guardian and my friend. As busy as she was with helping other clients I never once felt like I was bothering her. Strangely enough I felt like I was her only client. I’ve come to realise that every one of her clients probably feels the same way; special. You will not find a more trustworthy person then Helen.

Helen was our agent in 2015 when we were trying to find our first house together. She was very knowledgeable and showed us numerous places to ensure we saw all options and got a better understanding of how the process works. We ended up buying an amazing home that Helen found. If you are looking for an agent who truly cares and will work tirelessly for you, Helen is the one to call.
- Brian L.

Dear Helen, I just wanted to say thank you for selling my home. You included me in every part of the sale of my house and kept me informed. You were always available and worked in my best interest. You are a professional and trustworthy. I am so glad you were my agent. Thank you so much for all you did in selling my house (in 3 days)!
- Carmen

For first time home buyers, the process of finding the perfect home is undoubtedly overwhelming and oftentimes confusing. However, working with Helen has made this experience truly enjoyable. Not only did Helen provide us with the tools and resources to locate our ideal first home, she also educated us regarding the entire purchase process: from initial home visitations, to the development of a formal offer, to fulfilling the many requirements of closing. Consequently, we are thrilled to have had the opportunity to not only have worked with Helen, but also to have had such a caring, attentive and friendly professional to allow us to achieve such an important milestone in our lives. Without Helen's personal touch, finding our perfect home would still be just a dream, but instead, it is now a reality.

I just wanted to thank you for the courtesy that was extended during my house search. You were very helpful and generous with your time, which turned what could have been a stressful experience into a joyful one.
- Linda O.

We really appreciate all your help and it has been a pleasure working with you.
- Glen and Carmel

When we decided to move to the Windsor area, our local Royal LePage representative [we live 6 hours away] recommended Helen Almas as our agent. Helen took the time to understand our needs and requirements and only took us to homes that met with our expressed specifications. Her professional and efficient manner was greatly appreciated and we would highly recommend Helen to any of our friends and acquaintances.

Last week we flew in from Calgary to shop for a home in Windsor. With Helen's help we were able to hit the ground running. She had the necessary viewing appointments booked for the properties that interested us, and had them set up in the order of priority that we had requested. She made it clear from the get-go that she was available to us 24/7 while we were in town. That offer was tested when I emailed her a listing one evening regarding a hot property that had just come on the market. Even though Helen was at a concert, she read my email and contacted the seller immediately! That house turned out to be exactly what we were looking for and even though there was a good deal of interest in the property from other buyers, we're convinced that Helen getting us in the door quickly is the reason that we're the ones who can now call that lovely house our new home. Thank you Helen for making this entire process fun (who would have thought it could possibly be?) With your great negotiating skills, I really wish you were on our side as we sell our place in Calgary!
- Bob and Carol Burnside

It's been a long long journey, but we FINALLY made it all happen. We really appreciate your dedication, hard work, support and patience over the past three years. Thank you, you're one of the great ones!
- John R.

You understand people and their needs and yet you did not lose sight of requirements. You did what you said you would do and let us know what you couldn't do. It was refreshing to deal with someone who understands total cost and who can cut through "BS" and get things done. It was working with a professional business person and not just another salesperson. Will definitely use your services again.
- Jack

Helen was conscientious,well prepared,accessible and truly concerned with MY needs. I never felt pressured nor did I "doubt" anything she told me. It was such a pleasure dealing with her that I want to maintain contact with this fine person. I would ,with no reservation,encourage anyone I know to select Helen Almas as their real estate agent and have already done just that.
- Pauline Boyle

Helen was a great representative for us. Any homes we were eager to see, she had us an appointment right away. She was available to us at all hours and never left us waiting so we were able to jump on an opportunity as soon as it came up. Thanks Helen for all your help. If it wasn't for you we would never of found our house which we are able to call a home.
- Olivia and Brent

I am writing to express our gratefulness and appreciation for your professionalism and dedication in helping us find our new home, and sell my former house in tough market conditions. You showed a keen understanding of our requirements and considerable patients while showing us numerous properties for over three years. As well, your generous advice gave us the ability to correctly evaluate the sustainability of each candidate home. Furthermore, your friendliness and flexibility made us feel comfortable in voicing our concerns and asking questions throughout. As a result we are very happy with our decision and look forward the living in our new location for many more years, and will continue to recommend your services to anyone buying or selling a home.
- Jean-Francois Rompré

Thank you for all time, and patience of walking us through buying a Canadian home. Your honesty and sincere approach are VERY much appreciated. Chris was really happy with your willingness to think about our needs, the right fit, and what will benefit us in terms of house, community and our future comfort. Your willingness to steer us in the right direction was enormously helpful. Not all Realtors are "built" the same way. You made this experience a positive one. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting and working with you. I felt secure knowing you had our best interests!
