I am a single professional woman and recently worked with David Stoddard to buy a home. This was not my first time buying a house; however, it was my first time buying a house on my own. While I was looking forward to owning a home again, I was not looking forward to the whole home-buying process, as I had heard some negative things about the Real Estate industry. Also, I don’t have a lot of background or interest in home maintenance, so I didn’t want to end up with a home that would require a lot of work or have hidden costs or problems. […]

I was still new to Toronto and a first-time homebuyer – not only did I know absolutely nothing about the home-buying process, but I did not have friends or family nearby to consult. By the Grace of God, I found David Stoddard to guide me through the process. […]

My wife and I approached David Stoddard long before we decided to sell our condo in King West in downtown Toronto. David provided us with some great advice which made the listing process easy and painless. He provided us with tips on how to make the space show well and on how to get the greatest exposure for our listing. His research on comparable sales in the area was spot on. He gave us a good idea on listing price, which ultimately led to an extremely fast sale […]

My husband and I initially met with David Stoddard in the fall of 2013 when we were looking for a home. He took the time to meet with us to help us understand all the work you need to do in order to be in a position to buy a home. For me, this was service above and beyond! Next, David took us to see some homes. We decided to not buy at that time and a year later when we met with David again, it was like no time had passed. […]

My wife and I were referred to David Stoddard through a family member, from whom he came highly recommended after finding them a condo unit a few years earlier. Similarly, my wife and I were looking to purchasing our first condo in the Toronto market. From the onset in working with David, his primary goal was educating us on everything from preparing a budget to understanding the various legal documents. We even had homework to do! Once he started showing us places, we felt he always had our best interests at heart. Each place we visited, he took his time outlining aspects of the place he either liked or didn't like, many times helping us consider elements we would not have considered on our own. […]

I've been on David Stoddard’s mailing list for many years. It wasn't until May 2016 that I decided to reach out to him and to meet David in person. I was about to make one of the worst decisions of my life, which was to sell my house and to buy a condo. As soon as I mentioned that idea to him he almost jumped out of his chair. Instead, David guided me along a different path. First, he advised me to straighten up my financial situation and then look into purchasing an investment property. I was currently in a bad mortgage product and had some high-interest debts significantly affecting my monthly cash-flow. David proposed that I pay out my current mortgage, refinance the house with a better mortgage product and pay off my debts. These steps made a huge positive impact on my monthly cash flow. With my finances in order, David proposed step 2. At first, I had a fixed idea of buying a resale investment condo in the downtown core but David suggested another idea based on my personal budget, which he had me prepare. David introduced the idea of purchasing a pre-construction condo at the Platinum price level in an up and coming area of Toronto. I wasn't completely sure at first but with all his guidance and wealth of knowledge, I couldn't feel more confident that I made the right choice for my future. David was always available throughout the whole process, even when he was on vacation. David answered the many emails I kept sending him with all my doubts and concerns and he always provided clear explanations. […]

David was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, reliable, and honest. He is also incredibly on the ball, and always made time for us. I have worked with several real estate agents in the past and was impressed with David's service every step of the way. I highly recommend him and am very happy I will never have to look for another agent again - I will use David's services every time! […]

Real estate agents are a dime dozen, but quality realtors are very hard to come by. As a first time home buyer I was very skeptical about the process and very weary of all the traps that are set out by agents and brokers to swindle uninformed consumers of their hard earned money. With David Stoddard I was able to be very transparent with all my concerns for which he had great answers every time. I learned a great deal about the market and the process and was able to confidently land an amazing property in the Distillery District in November this year. If you are a first time home buyer who wants to make an educated choice I highly recommend David and his team. No surprise fees, no unexpected scenarios, my purchase and experience was very smooth. He knows the market very well and is very realistic about what worked for me and what didn't. He suggested a mortgage broker who got me into a very good mortgage with a boutique lender. I had an accountant friend of mine look over the deal and he was surprised by the conditions and flexibility of the mortgage. I am very satisfied with his services and highly recommend him as an agent! […]

As first-time home buyers working with David was a pleasure. He made sure we fully understood the processes involved in buying a home and answered the numerous questions we had along the way. Always quick to reply, we felt at ease working with him. David showed us homes that met our needs but did not exceed our limitations. We felt confident knowing that our best interests were kept in mind, and that he was putting his best effort forward to find the perfect fit for us. We love our first home, and could not have found it without David's expertise and the excellent professionals he works with. We would most definitely refer David to any of our friends or family members. […]

David was a great asset to have in our search for a first home. He was incredibly patient with us, as we were novices to the real estate world. He was very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the real estate business, and would frequently predict with high accuracy how much a unit would sell. He put in a tremendous amount of work on our behalf, and much of it was done on tight schedules to meet offer dates and closing dates. He was a pleasure to work with. […]

Buying your first home is a big deal, which comes with both nerves and excitement. David Stoddard first met with Caylen and I to discuss what it is we can actually afford, including unforeseen costs. This exercise was a huge benefit to help narrow down what it is we can actually purchase. We received listings and he was always upfront and frank about certain properties that would come up. When we did find our new home, David guided us through the process with patience and experience with a quick response. […]

For many people, purchasing their first property is one of the most significant decisions they would make. There are several unknowns and a recurring thought of “what if ” never goes away. As I experienced, the right realtor can address many of those nagging concerns and actually ease the stress of purchase. […]

Our experience working with David could be summed up in two simple words: effortless and thorough. During our first conversation with David, we were straightforward when saying that we would probably be the most difficult clients he’s worked with due to working in the architectural and development field. Luckily for us, this did not faze him. David is extremely organized and has a vast knowledge of the entire real estate process, thus ensuring that his clients do not get ahead of themselves. His regimented routine goes in detail by noting your specific requirements within a property, cash flow analysis to ensure you are not “house poor” and an overall explanation of the purchasing process. David can easily think outside the box allowing for an extensive criteria search, maximizing available property listings. It is quite obvious that today’s market is extremely competitive and stressful, however, David ensured that the process did not become overwhelming by managing the minutia of details. It should be noted that David’s attributes do not stop there as he has access to a well-versed team of real estate lawyers who will act quickly to finalize all paperwork and answer any questions you may have; no matter how ludicrous you may think they are. Based on our recent experience, we would not hesitate to use David again in the future and to recommend him to everyone we know. […]

As a first time home buyer, my biggest concern is my budget and preventing those typical 'uneducated' mistakes that most first-time home buyers make. David's Stoddard's Condo Tour offers touring different areas in Toronto to learn what you can afford, as well as the different condo styles available. This can be a huge wake-up call for most, and it is best to learn from it early on in your search. David has a quick grasp in understanding what you want, and with his easy-going attitude, there's no doubt you'll feel comfortable. From the very start, you get the sense that he has your best interest at heart by providing a lot of advice in terms of what you should watch out for. He is very knowledgeable about the market and answers all your questions and concerns. I recommend the tour to anyone looking to purchase a condo […]

His honesty and attention to always looking after our best interests helped us make the right decision. We are happy and satisfied with our first home and we are already enjoying the feeling of having our own house. Mere words are not sufficient to thank David for his service but we will be grateful and thankful to him forever! […]

The Lunch and Learn session was incredibly helpful. David Stoddard and Jerome Trail provided a friendly and casual atmosphere, where they openly shared their knowledge of the process involved in home/condo buying. As a first-time perspective buyer, I was overwhelmed with all of the information out there. David provided me with an organized view of where to begin and how to proceed. He answered my questions sincerely and related anecdotes from his experience. Jerome explained and simplified mortgages for me honestly and articulately. I feel much better equipped to begin my search and I’m looking forward to working with both David and Jerome. […]

I did want to thank you very much for all of your help on this. I have to say that I’ve not often dealt with realtors – choosing to buy and sell privately – since virtually all of my realtor experiences have been poor ones. My experience with David Stoddard was different though … finally someone who actually delivered on what I’ve always expected from a realtor but never received … i.e. help at every step of the process – no hesitance to get involved to ensure the best outcome possible. I truly did appreciate all of your help and advice. […]

We could not have imagined a better first time home buying experience. From the start, David Stoddard walked us through the process and ensured we had a strong understanding of the Toronto market all while balancing our budget. David was incredibly patient with us as we went on viewings together; always open to discussing both the pros and cons of potential homes. We never once felt pressured throughout our search. David was always organized, on time, and returned phone calls/emails right away. The overall process was low stress, and his sense of humour transformed our home search from something stressful to something fun. We are so thankful to David for helping us find a place that we now call home. We would absolutely recommend his service to our friends and family. […]

This is my first time working with David Stoddard nd he was extremely helpful in finding me my first condo in downtown Toronto. As someone with little experience in the Toronto market, David walked me through the entire process, educating me on how the market works and what to look for as a buyer and ultimately a seller. He is always available to bounce ideas off of, discuss new listings and take you out on viewings to give you a real good handle of what is available in the market at in your price range. He has the ability to put himself in your shoes as a buyer to help find the property that suits you the best. I have already and will continue to recommend David to friends and family looking for an honest, trustworthy and loyal realtor. Thanks again David for making my buying experience seamless and as stress free as possible!” […]

David Stoddard was very patient and took his time to explain everything to us, and narrowing down our location search. After a few ups and downs on our end, David helped us through everything with such professionalism and positive energy that we thoroughly enjoyed the entire home buying process. He did not hesitate to show us house, after house, after house, after house, until we finally found our dream home! […]

David is the best you could ask for when it comes to real estate agents. He showed me many places and knew exactly what I was looking for after our first time meeting. He was always available for any questions or assistance and has a great team that helped me with mortgages and ensuring I had everything I needed to get the perfect place. It’s safe to say without him I would be lost and I could not recommend anyone more than I would recommend David Stoddard, especially for first-time buyers […]

We would highly recommend potential purchasers to commence their journey by attending a Buyer Planning Session with David Stoddard. David took the time and with patience and diligence worked with the information that we provided to make a work of art. Our vision was placed on paper in a precise and professional manner for us to review. The journey to home ownership begins with having a sound plan, the organization/reorganization of our goals and precise focus. The planning session was effective on highlighting our strengths and weaknesses and our expected costs. It provided a wealth of information. All our questions were answered. We can now see clearly ahead. […]

As first time home buyers, the prospect of tackling Toronto’s housing market was daunting… or daunting until we sat down with David Stoddard. Although we were pre-approved for our mortgage, David re-worked all of our numbers so that we had a realistic sense of what a house in Toronto was going to cost us – and what we could actually afford without overextending ourselves. David was always quick and responsive to our numerous questions and helped us feel confident in our decisions, never pressuring us in one direction or the other, but rather patient and supportive. Based on our experience, finding the right home is a full-time job, but one that was made infinitely easier with David’s insight, advice, and honesty. We won’t hesitate to refer David to our friends and enlist his services in any future housing adventures! […]

I was convinced that being not only new to the city of Toronto but the country itself would present dozens of seemingly insurmountable issues for us during the home purchase process… However, thanks to David Stoddard’s wealth of experience and rich history working with newcomers just like myself, our unique situation and bounty of questions were all met with well thought-out, patient, and knowledgeable responses from David during our planning session. Thanks to David, we now have a strong plan of execution moving forward! […]
