Lorne is Still Going Strong 40 Years Later and Loving Every Minute of it!!!

Lorne, your knowledge of the business was overwhelming.  You always took the time to ensure I understood contracts, rules and kept on the tails of the property management persons to help me get the items on the “wish” list.  I could never have moved forward with confidence for this deal without your guidance. And to think this was simply a rental. I would highly recommend your knowledge and dedication to any who asked. Heather Frost - 6 Birchfield Cres, Caledon.

Lorne, Sincere thanks, to tell you how much your thoughtfulness has meant. Bev & Pat Nugent - 36 Sifford Court, Brampton

Lorne is a trustworthy realtor who you can trust with unwavering confidence. In our first meeting with Lorne, we immediately appreciated his experience, knowledge, transparency, organization, and guidance as we prepared to consider listing our home. In searching for a house, Lorne was available 24/7, and took the time to find us a home that met all our (somewhat unrealistic) expectations. When it came time to make an offer on our dream home, Lorne was aggressive and eager, and took complete, timely control of the transaction. We knew that we had someone fighting in our corner to secure the purchase, while respecting our limitations and ensuring our comfort throughout the entire process. In listing our home, Lorne provided insight in staging, took care of preparing professional brochures of our property, and marketed our home to run several successful open houses on a long weekend with only four days’ notice. Inevitably, we had a bidding war on the Monday of a long weekend, three days after we listed. Lorne secured an offer for us that was $15,000.00 over asking, and his attention to detail throughout the entire process ensured that the transaction proceeded with no hiccups or interruptions. The conditions that he recommended for the sale of our current home and purchase of our new home allowed us to sleep easily at night throughout this process, as we felt in complete control of the outcome. In dealing with Lorne, it felt like having a family member represent us that we could trust wholeheartedly. He patiently answered all our questions and aligned us with numerous contacts who were ultimately reliable and trustworthy. We would recommend Lorne with the highest confidence to all our friends and family and foresee success in all his future real estate transactions. You are wonderful Lorne! All the very best (and we will be in touch when we are ready to host you for a drink!) Thank you for everything, Shane & Christine Cote & Family - 24 Nutmeg St, Brampton, On

Lorne, Thank you for your support in the sale of my home.  As a single woman, I appreciated your help and guidance resulting in the sale of my home in one week.  Great work, sincerely. Gail Reed - 26 Hall Cres, Brampton 

Lorne, We cannot thank you enough for selling our house so quickly. Your straightforward, courteous, and professional approach made the entire experience a pleasure with hardly any impact on our day-to-day lives. We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone interested in buying or selling a home. Furthermore, we will be sure to call you when we begin the search for our next property.

Lorne, You were a consummate professional when it came to buying and selling our home. You provided keen insight into the processes and procedures of the Ontario system making it easy for us to purchase and ultimately sell. Lorne's superior knowledge of the Brampton market and community allowed us to make excellent decisions without wasting any time. His knowledge of the business community allowed us to secure a lawyer to help close the deal and a contractor to carry out renovations - both were outstanding. Simply put Lorne provided excellent customer service where we were treated with dignity and respect. His "full service" approach was extremely helpful, and should we ever find ourselves back in Metro Toronto we would definitely seek Lorne's services again. Darrin Martins and Ian Thoms - 702-26 Hanover Rd, Brampton

We recently navigated the sale of my parents home following the passing of both of my parents within a 3 week time frame. My wife and I live in California so it was a very complicated situation. Lorne navigated and assisted us in every aspect, from renovation prior to sale, to an attorney to handle the probate,, and finally the sale. He is an avidly focused representative of his client. My wife and I cannot say enough about his professionalism and could not imagine having used anyone else. - Mike and Lorna Whyte - 24 Bedford Cres, Brampton, On

Many years ago I was working in my yard when this real estate agent who happened to be Lorne Deffett approached me and asked if I was going to be selling my house in the near future. I told him at the moment I wasn't interested. Anyway he kept sending me his writing pads. Then circumstances in my life changed and I decided to sell my house. Not knowing any real estate agent I found one of his writing pads and called Lorne. From the first moment I met him I had the feeling he was someone you could trust. He was very professional in every way. He went above and beyond helping me get my house cleaned out. He kept me up to date every day and I looked forward to his calls. He certainly is an asset to the Remax Real Estate company. - Arlene Groves - 104 West Street Brampton

Lorne, It has been wonderful working with you for the past 20 plus years.  We always appreciate your honesty, integrity and hard work in helping us to sell and purchase our new homes.  Even during those times of stressfulness, you always had a calm assuredness about you that helped to put our minds at ease.  Without hesitation you will be contacted when we decide to make our next move. Lou and Linda Cera - 19 Giles Rd. Caledon, On

We thought that Selling our house and buying a new house during COVID was going to be risky, but I must say we had the best man for the job in Lorne Deffett.  Selling our condo townhouse had a few ups and downs but Lorne went over and above to help us sell and that we did in no time and then we started looking for our new home we had Lorne driving from Brampton to Orangeville to Erin until we found our dream home in Bolton. Lorne was a pleasure to work with and through it all Lorne became more then our real estate agent, he became a friend. Lorne was highly recommended to me and now I know why. Thank you, Lorne, for everything you did for our family. Jamie Andrews & Crystal McBain - 77-45 Hansen Rd, N, Brampton

Lorne, There are not enough words to express the gratitude that my sister and I have for helping us sell our family home so quickly and seamlessly. This time was extremely difficult for us, but you helped us out so professionally, with deep care and concern for our best interest.  Everyone should have this ease of selling their home, and they will, if they use you as an agent.  I would highly recommend you. We cannot thank you enough for what you have done for our family. Heather Leonard & Anne-Marie Parsons - 104 Brookland Dr, Brampton

Lorne, From the moment I first met you, I felt an instant sense of trust with you. History has proven my instincts right. You have made all my moves a breeze. I will continue to highly recommend you, thank you for always going the extra mile. Jean Lowery - 76 Burgby Ave, Brampton

Lorne, You continue to be a salesperson who tells it like it is. One person in the real estate business we can really trust. We will continue to refer you to family and friends. You always manage to go above and beyond the call of duty. We believe it is coming up to 12 years now that we have had your help. Thanks for all the years of service. To prospective homebuyers Lorne is a referral well worth looking into. John & Terri Metcalfe  - 42 Hood Crescent, Brampton.

We have used Lorne many times to sell our homes. He is very professional and passionate to each of his clients. Lorne works beyond his expectations. We recently lost my mother in law and had to sell her home. We thought of Lorne right away to help us put her home on the market. He realized how emotional this was and was very sympathetic while also giving expert advice. We wouldn’t ever want to work with any other agent. George and Angie Baldaia - 10 Glendale Ave, Brampton

Lorne, We cannot thank you enough for making our moving experience so smooth and straight forward. Your thoroughness and thoughtfulness at each point - in both our purchase and our sale was greatly appreciated. Your dedication to your work and time spent on every detail made the whole process feel effortless. You provide more than that required of you, and for us that was peace of mind. Thank you for everything! Hope you have a great holiday season too! Hope the new year brings you great things, Take care., Donna and Jeff Romeo - 161 Carters Way, Rockwood.

Lorne, It was a rewarding and pleasurable experience to have your expert support and guidance throughout this entire process. You took care of everything, while at the same time, keeping us informed and tending to all our questions and concerns. You worked in our best interest and were sensitive to our needs the entire time. Sincerely, Reg & Lynda Scott - 239 Baronwood Crt, Brampton, On 

Lorne, We just wanted to take a minute to thank you for all your help in selling our property. You were a pleasure to work with. We never felt pressure from you. You just presented the details and let us make our own decisions and you welcomed our many phone calls and texts. We really appreciate your care and attention. And we will gladly recommend your services to our families and friends. Thanks again. Al & Donna Shipway - 27 Dawson Rd, Orangeville, ON.

Lorne, We want to thank you for always looking out for our best interests.  Having used your services for the past 20 years now, we have come to completely trust your buying and selling expertise and your extensive knowledge of the real estate market.  We will continue to recommend your services to friends and family as we know you will treat them with the utmost respect as you always have in the past. I am glad you are on our team! Gary Richard & Susan Trianos - 11 Sweet Briar Lane, Brampton, On.

We have done several transactions with Lorne, buying, and selling several houses with him going back some 20+ years. There is a reason why one continually goes back to the same resources, whatever that resource may be, and that is no exception here. Lorne is by far superior in his field. He is loyal, honest, has a work ethic in his industry second to none, which all speaks to his integrity. Every transaction (and there have been many) has been completely seamless without fail, even pulling a rabbit out of the hat for us on more than one occasion. To say he has represented our interests and needs time and time again, without a single issue is an understatement. He just comes through for us! I have personally observed him outhustle, outwit, and outmaneuver other agents time after time. So much so, we have personally recommended his services to all my family and friends without hesitation. As mentioned, he is the perfect combo of honestly, loyalty, industry knowledge, and integrity, as well, has a set of connections for what seems like every single possible circumstance, home related or not! In our latest venture, Lorne’s, staging, strategy, and perseverance got us multiple offers, SOLD above ask, and firm! In closing, Lorne has become much more than our top choice realtor, he has become a trusted and loyal friend. He has become such a valued member of our team that we have contemplated this out loud, “What the heck are we to do if the day comes and Lorne decides to hang it up, and ride into the sunset?” But for now, we are grateful to have Lorne in our corner each time we try and navigate the complicated world of real estate! Jeff Waite & Jackie Seguin - 50 Settler Court, Brampton, On 

Lorne,

Without a doubt, you have become an important person in our life.  You have been our agent on both the sale and purchase of our last two homes and have worked diligently to meet our needs.  There were a few rough patches, but you went beyond the call of duty to ensure that our moves were completed to the best of your ability.  Thanks again for all your hard work and without a doubt you are the only agent that we will recommend. You stand behind your word and are extremely professional, sincerely. Joe, Carol & Robbie Dominaux - 54 Lindridge Avenue, Brampton.
