Thank you so much Tyson. A million thanks is not enough. By far the most responsive, courteous, professional, timely and thorough agent I have ever meet. On Sunday at 9am I sent an email enquiring about the service within 3 minutes Tyson followed up. That’s impressive.

We worked with the Brel team (Brendan & Mel) this fall and they were outstanding! We had a lot to do to get ready and they made it easy for us from day one by immediately dropping off a care pack and kicking it into high gear with a clear project plan. They pointed us […]

She was there for me through the whole process- was excited for me and frustrated for me as I rode the waves of the Toronto real estate market for the first time.

Jenny never left any questions unanswered, always responded promptly and made me feel at ease with the process.

She was always very professional, friendly, and prompt with her replies. If you get the chance to work with her, you’ll be in great hands!

She was always there when we needed her, responding to our emails at the craziest hours, and guiding us through every step of our crazy journey.

She was unbelievably responsive and we never had to wait more than a few minutes to hear back from her on any queries we had.

understood exactly what I was looking for and made it happen.

…the pros you would want on your side when house hunting, especially when it’s your first time. 

She was patient, knowledgeable and decisive. With her help we were able to our dream property!

right from the start it was a worry free experience and was able to get my unit listed and rented out in less than a month.

She made the process very smooth and as least stressful as can be.

Anyone interested in selling their property should strongly consider Brendan Powell and The Brel Team. Strong communication with Brendan throughout the property sale was extremely important. He arranged all the details while prepping our home for the market and was equally helpful with information after the sale for our move. It as an overall great […]

I was helped by Dena to find a condo in downtown Toronto. Before starting my search I was not aware of the fiery hell that is the Toronto real estate market! Apartments are leased in minutes and people bet on rents to secure one! However thanks to Dena I was able to put a leash […]

If you’re a first time buyer in particular, go with BREL, they’re so thorough, thoughtful, and patient and will make your experience educational, painless, and end up with a great place in the end!

We had many obstacles to overcome which Halina handled with her extensive knowledge and consistent professionalism.

I was buying a condo while living in a different city, and Lisa would organize weekend condo shopping trips for when I came into town, and was more than willing to go look at things for me and do FaceTime tours.

We’ve been looking for a new place for a few months. And during the entire process, Lisa was patient and understanding of our needs. Always willing to accommodate our busy schedules to find the perfect home. I can’t thank her enough. From start to finish, 5 stars. Would definitely recommend.

She was extremely responsive no matter the day of the week or the time of day, offered advice that was really helpful to somebody who was new to living in the city, and catered to my exact (picky) needs.

She’s always available and her response time is super fast- something so important in this crazy rental market!

She was also really great at giving us honest frank answers about what was available but helping us to find what we truly wanted and helping us to understand what we were willing to trade off – even if we couldn’t articulate it.

Not only are BREL the best brokerage we have ever used, they’re a lot of fun to work with too!

She gave us incredible advice, based on her years of experience in the industry, which ended up saving us tens of thousands of dollars when we went through the bidding process.

Shopping from out of town was stressful, and her reassurances and support were great. She was always available, insightful, knowledgeable, and quick to respond

They made this experience very easy and stress-free…

She was aways professional but if you’re also looking for someone who will be open/honest and tell you to smarten up when you’re overanalyzing yet be able to mother you when you need it, you’ve found your agent.

He really changed our perspective of our first home buying process – we thought it would be long, difficult, and frustrating, but he made it SO EASY

We came to Toronto 5 years ago, and since then we’ve moved six times. So as you can imagine we have met a variety of realtors. Disappointed by greedy landlords looking for making business forcing us to leave because they were selling the house, we finally decided to purchase our very first place. We cannot […]

We found a place within 4 days and it is perfect.

Tyson made finding our new home enjoyable and stress free.

I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her in this crazy Toronto rental market.

She was very organized with the listing and communicated any news swiftly.

He was really helpful, reliable, and professional.

Matt is a friendly, caring, compassionate and attentive individual with whom I would truly recommend to my family, friends and colleagues.

I was constantly informed and updated throughout my entire home buying process.

Lisa is everything you would want in a realtor: she is client-focused, quick, knowledgeable, and she’s genuinely a good person. I never doubted that she was on my side.

Working with Allie from Brel made my first time home buying process easy and stress free.

I know Halina went above and beyond and it is because of her that I purchased the home that was exactly what I hoped for and I truly love.

Having rented with other brokerages in Toronto and elsewhere, this was by far the most simple and supportive process I’ve experienced.

It was clear they valued the property as much as I did and their upfront approach to planning and marketing gave me total confidence in their strategy.

She was straightforward, honest and tireless – and as a first time HB made sure I understood every step of the process.

This was hands-down the best possible Real Estate experience I can imagine, and I’ve worked in jobs focused on shaping great client experiences for over 10 years.

She is always on top of things, and I was very confident in her ability to find me the right place, giving me peace of mind.

You were very patient with me & my completely unrealistic expectations of finding a good landing spot after leaving Halifax. 

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend her to anyone looking for a tremendous experience.

She showed me great places, and when I found the perfect one she did a great job getting the rental through quickly and smoothly.

From the beginning, he was very helpful, knowledgeable and prompt.

Her knowledge regarding the market set her above other agents.

Tyson goes over and beyond to make things easy on you.

The process was easy and Tyson was always available, every step of the way.

He is very professional, knowledgeable and correspondence was always prompt.

Tyson is professional and thorough. The process is trouble free.

She truly made the complicated process of looking for and buying a property a very good experience.

We have used Matthew Shapiro and the Brel team twice in the last 2 years. What an amazing team they are. They take care of everything and truly go above and beyond for you.

With the crazy competitive Toronto rental market, they did the impossible and found us a place that not only checks off every single “must have” but all of our “nice-to-haves” as well—and there were a lot of them.

This made a very stressful process a lot more bearable and straightforward and we found exactly what we were looking for.

I liked how you listened to our needs and reacted with the “opportunity” in the market. The end-goal was our satisfaction.

The fact that they offered the staging service was incredibly useful and helped us get top dollar.

The customer service level that I experienced and the amount of help I received while working with Halina was above my expectations.

Dena was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was extremely responsive no matter the day of the week or the time of day, offered advice that was really helpful to somebody who was new to living in the city, and catered to my exact (picky) needs. Once we found a place that was suitable, […]

There is 7 hours difference between countries , however , any time I contact her , she answers . Its really impressive , how this girl handles all the situations

Kristin was incredibly patient and very knowledgeable, and walked us through every step of the process (with a sense of humour to boot!).

If you’re a first time buyer in particular, go with BREL, they’re so thorough, thoughtful, and patient and will make your experience educational, painless, and end up with a great place in the end!

It was a stressful situation but having Jenny handle the logistics took a lot of stress off my shoulders.

She was a great help showing me different apartments around the city until I found a condo that met all my expectations and more.

Somehow they were able to produce 100+ showings in 7 days and 23 offers in one night. These two are worth every penny. No special offers or discounts were gained for writing this review, just a true account of how pleased I am.

Dena works tirelessly and is extremely prompt with communications while remaining the utmost professional.

Working with BREL was a wonderful experience for us as inexperienced first time home sellers.

I never hesitate to recommend them enthusiastically to anyone I know! Plus they’re fun and authentic, and stay in touch (in a good way!) what’s not to love??

I’m a very hesitant customer but he made me feel very comfortable and as first-time purchasers, we definitely needed our hand held a little.

We also love how modern they are compared to other realtors out there

She was a great help showing me different apartments around the city until I found a condo that met all my expectations and more.

Her extensive knowledge about the local market, combined with a drive and passion to help her clients succeed, proved to be the perfect match for us.

BREL is a fantastic team – highly professional, amazing service & also made up of great people

…unbeatable full package solution that catered to all our needs and beyond

She is very knowledgeable and is always available to answer your questions.

Throughout the process, she demonstrated true knowledge and experience and never over promised, but rather and IN FACT over delivered!

All we can put it down to is having a great realtor like Halina + an amazing BREL team which is like a well-oiled machine to make this happen.

He was always available to answer our questions and really partnered with us to sell our house.

She has a great knowledge of the current market and the neighbourhoods in Toronto and is extremely passionate in making sure we found a place we would love!

Tyson had made my experience very easy and smooth and is always there to answer your questions.

Her insight into the market, various neighbourhoods and over and above assistance was so appreciated!

Whoever would have thought that the process of selling a house could be so painless?! Our house sold in no time and I credit that to the entire team’s hard work and dedication. 

I couldn’t have been more satisfied with the help and guidance in finding a condo for lease in the most craziest/frustrating Toronto market.

She even climbed 9 floors to show me an apartment when the elevator was broken. That is dedication!!

While I was struggling with other agents kept telling me the units had been leased while I didn’t even have chance to look at it, my colleague referred me to Dena as she helped him to find a house when he first moved from the States. Dena was great!

I just sold my home with the BREL team. Allie Rempel was phenomenal! If you want your house sold at the greatest value with the least amount of stress, look no further. Allie and her team walked me through every stage of the process in a way that I could understand – like the team’s […]

She also consistently goes far above and beyond in terms of the level of service she provides. And she does it all with a smile.

He was patient and accommodating throughout this long process.

Right from the first phone call Tyson took his time to listen and understand my needs.

Thank you so much BREL Team for all your hard work in finding us what we are always looking for

…it was his integrity that was so important to us. We wanted someone who would tell us the ugly truth if we needed to hear it, no BS, and we appreciated his honesty always.

I’ve never used a Realtor to find a rental before, but Allie came so highly recommended from a friend she had represented, that I had to at least make contact as skeptical as I was.

He was extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of the transaction, and being very able and professional, made us feel completely comfortable having him handle the matter.

Selling your home can be a trying time but Kristin was so very positive and upbeat that we always felt that she had everything in hand.

She made the whole search process feel seamless and easy

The worlds “exceptional” or “world class” don’t quite cut it when explaining working with Halina. The term “transcendental” would be more accurate.

Kristen and Matt made the most stressful time in our lives to date manageable, and we are eternally grateful for that!

My husband and I were so impressed with his hard work and professionalism.

She always seemed to be looking out for or best interest and never pressured us into making a decision.

In less than a week, we signed a tenancy contract. We’re super impressed and thrilled to have been working with you and Dena. We found you through your article about Tenancy in Toronto! Thanks again for what you offer and for bringing Dena to us.

When we found BREL it was like a wish come true. Their full-service packaging (planning, scheduling, staging, recommendations, cleaning, etc) was what we needed, and the amazing positive energy they brought to our table just sealed the deal. We knew we’d be in good hands with them working for us.

Where do I even start?  Dena Shiff is absolutely phenomenal!  We are moving to Toronto and did not have a clue about where to live, how rentals worked, what the market was like etc, etc.  Add to that our high anxiety personalities and we could not have imagined a better match for us than Dena.  She was extremely responsive, patient and good natured throughout our entire search.

I would like to thank Dena at Team BREL for her help in finding a condo for me to rent. I arrived from Edmonton and started to look for a place on my own only to realize I wasn’t making any progress in a challenging market. Dena helped me understand the market, found a condo […]

We had a great experience with Tyson Cafe-Ruoff of BREL Real Estate team while renting out our condominium in Toronto. We found him a highly professional person in the real estate business. We would not hesitate to rank him as the best among the ones we have dealt with so far. He helped us renting […]

Dena was very friendly and did an outstanding job at keeping us updated and going out of her way to ensure that we get what we want. Highly recommend!
