What Our Clients Say

“I can't say enough about Duncan and Karen's skills. They showed true professionalism at all stages of the sale of a Cabbagetown house and the purchase of a new home in Riverdale. Their knowledge about both these neighbourhoods and the real estate market were invaluable.”

— Jane Copp, January 2015

“Karen and Duncan made selling our condo easy and stress-free. As two busy professionals, my husband and I came into the process overwhelmed and a bit unsure of how we would get it all done. Working with Karen and Duncan made it all come together quickly, professionally and with the experience that put us at ease immediately. I would (and did) recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home!”

— Samantha & Jeff Sykes, December 2014

“When it came time to sell our family home of 20 years our initial thought was that we could sell the house ourselves. Luckily I ran into Karen before we set on that path. Knowing we could rely on Karen and Duncan during the prepping process was a big relief. We sold 10% over asking with multiple offers. We truly valued Duncan and Karen's high integrity approach to managing multiple offers and felt we were in the right hands during a very stressful period of our lives. Trust them with your house. You will be happy with the end result.”

— Anne Sutherland & Andy Macaulay, April 2014

“Duncan is a great agent/broker. It's always a pleasure to deal with Duncan. He makes himself available any time to discuss any issue at hand. Duncan is trustworthy, knowledgeable, consistent and reliable.”

— Maria Brown

“My experience with Duncan is that his client comes first. By this I mean that he listens, he confirms what he hears, he shapes recommendations to meet the client's needs, he takes the initiative while always being responsive to changes from me. I always had the feeling that he was there for me and my needs. That resulted in a relationship of trust and respect.”

— David Kister

“We hired Duncan to help find us a house when we moved from the UK to Canada. Duncan not only found us our perfect house but he did it within our budget and within a week of starting our search. He has an excellent 'feel' for the market and the city and helped us out enormously.”

— Kelly Evans

“Duncan has helped me with two moves. Duncan has a tremendous amount of integrity, professionalism and expertise. For one of the sales, I received over $100,000.00 over asking! For the second sale, I urgently needed to sell (as I was nine months pregnant) and he was able to sell quickly and effectively through all his pre-existing contacts and goodwill in the city! I highly recommend Duncan!”

— Lara Speirs

— Trevor Oke

“Duncan is the most honest, hard-working, human real estate agent in the business. He will not lie to make a sale; he knows the current reality of the real estate scene and can give a realistic, businesslike overview and tend to your own specifics. I would not deal with anyone else.”

— Beth Kaplan

“Duncan keeps in touch post transaction and has a wealth of knowledge & expertise to share. I would highly recommend him if you are buying or selling.”

— Joan Allison

“Duncan was my Real Estate Agent twice. First when buying my first home and when it was time to sell that home and buy a larger home. Being a single mother with 2 sons, it was a daunting experience. Duncan was able to ease a very stressful move with his knowledge, patience, and hard work.”

— Susan Bates

“We first met Duncan as newlyweds, cruising through open houses that we could not afford. He spent time with us anyways, educating us on the market and always stayed in touch. When it came time to eventually list our Toronto house for sale, he was our agent of choice. Our house listed and sold within a week, with multiple bids, and went for $58,000 over asking. Duncan has experience and expertise but even more important than that - he's hard working and a nice guy!”

— Karen Rushforth

From our first meeting with him through to the point at which our house deal closed, we were delighted with the service Duncan provided and absolutely confident of his desire to get the best deal possible for us.

His creativity, thoughtfulness and integrity make him someone I feel very comfortable recommending.”

— Douglas Worts

“I have known Duncan for more than 20 years, and I have worked with a number of real estate brokers and agents over the years. Duncan has been by far the best. He makes the experience transparent for the seller or buyer, and goes a long way in helping the client get beyond the mythology and into the reality of real estate. Plus, he's a great banjo player and a pretty good hockey player.”

— David Coates

— Gary Beechey

“I have had the pleasure in working with Duncan over two years ago and highly endorse him. I was new to the Toronto area and looking for a commercial space to lease. Duncan not only took the time to put great effort into the search, but also schooled me on the different regions and areas of Toronto. He is a true professional with great integrity and superb customer service.”

— Paul Bichler

“Duncan is always a pleasure to work with. He brings a level of professionalism not often found in agents. Duncan's hard work and thorough understanding of the marketplace really makes things happen. Duncan also took the extra step of getting his credentials as a real estate broker which gives him a much broader understanding of the technical details in buying or selling a home.”

— James Gilbert

“Duncan was originally recommended to me by a friend over five years ago. He invested a lot of time and energy in me and became a trusted and valued advisor. Lucky me to have someone guiding me through the process with such integrity and expertise. Within one week I had multiple offers, well over the asking price. He is a real pro and fully dedicated to achieving the best results.”

— Teresa Pagnutti

“Duncan knows Toronto and the housing market very well. He gave us some great advice and we found the perfect house for us within 4 days of looking! The area is perfect and we have already seen a huge return on the property value. I highly recommend Duncan as a quality Realtor.”

— Andrew Sheppard

“We've worked with Duncan on 3 occasions and it has been a pleasure each time. He knows what he's doing, he's a very likeable individual and as far as I'm concerned has achieved solid results for us. On top of that he is trustworthy and someone I don't hesitate to call upon when looking for an experienced opinion on real estate matters.”

— David Allan

— B. Segall

“By putting me in touch with workmen who quickly and efficiently did the necessary work so that the house showed well, you guided me to show the property at its best, and you assisted me in selling it to my satisfaction. All this you accomplished with a pleasant manner and consideration for what you know from experience to be a stressful time.”

— K. McCoy

“My new home is over 90 years old and Duncan's advice in regard to inspections saved me from unnecessary additional expense. I was very satisfied that selling my existing home was a top priority with him and all avenues for a timely sale were being explored and aggressively pursued. I felt that my interests were being served. I am comfortable recommending Duncan Fremlin as a real estate agent.”

I appreciate your professionalism and good sense, your friendliness and availability, and your sense of humour. When the time comes to sell, I won't have a moment's hesitation in choosing you as my partner in the process.”

— A. Kaplan

“Thank you so much for all your help. This is the third time in 8 years you've helped me find a new house. As you know, I didn't want to move this time, but you made a potentially painful process a lot of fun. Thanks for all your care and attention.”

— Daniel Aronchick

“We were very pleased with the service you provided, in both the sale and purchase of our homes. We found you to be timely and responsive. Ultimately, we sold our home at a price above the listing price recommended by the two other proposals received. Your market value estimate was well researched and documented. Thank you for your professional approach to both transactions.”

— Alison Williams & Mark Gorlick

“This is a note of thanks for your efforts in bringing the sale of my house to a speedy conclusion. You did everything you promised to do, in regard to advertising, open houses and other marketing initiatives. The quick closing was a bonus and we had our money out within three months of listing. I would certainly recommend your services to anyone.”

— Donald Sprung

His clients, including myself, are always impressed with his knowledge of the real estate market and his professionalism. It's been a pleasure working with Duncan and I highly recommend his services.”
