Both Matt and I are repeat clients of Lisa’s and both of us returned for the same reason, we felt Lisa was diligent, consistent and we felt that she cared. Matt and I were starting a new life together and we were blending our families and with that came very specific demands that seemed nearly impossible to meet. Our journey started when we both listed our properties, Matt’s sold very quickly and mine followed shortly thereafter and then the panic started we have to find a new house, a home that will fit all 7! Lisa’s challenge began; she listened to our requirements and took us on a targeted search to find our dream home. Tensions ran high, emotions were high and low and Lisa was our cheer leader she picked us up when we were down and she dusted us off when we got a little overwhelmed. Her patience, her care and her knowledge of the falgarwood area helped us find our dream home. Today a little over a year later we’ve made the house our home and we thank Lisa for her persistence and her support during the journey of blending our families. Thank you Lisa, we highly recommend you to anyone looking for an agent who really does care.

We can’t thank you enough for helping us find our forever home in Oakville. We took our time...the market was crazy and we had a very specific area and type of home in mind. After over a year from the first time we connected when our home finally sold we found ourselves with a very short closing in mid summer. With all odds stacked against us, you went above and beyond to use your network and resources to find us exactly what we were looking for, within budget in a home not yet listed. To top it off, we were able to close in 2 weeks and avoid two moves! It was nothing short of remarkable! 4 months later we are settling into our home and loving it. We’re so excited to begin our lives in Oakville and enjoy all it has to offer. Thank you for your consumate professionalism, patience and caring throughout the process. You were recommended by a friend and now it’s our turn to pay it forward. We highly recommend your services and wish you every success! Thank you so much! All the best to you!

A good friend of mine suggested that I should contact Lisa Lanoue while I was trying to put our property on the market.. After our initial meeting I realized that Lisa is quite a professional and great at what she is doing. During the selling process and purchasing a new property I felt at ease with her advise and suggestions .. she was always ahead of me in terms of thinking what to do next ! Lisa and Felipe were always available and happy to help.. and I needed a lot of help. Lisa is a true professional and trustworthy , I have enjoyed very much working with her.. Lisa and Felipe I am very thankful for all the help you both gave me and hope to stay friend for ever. I highly recommend Lisa Lanoue to anyone who needs smooth sailing when it comes to selling or purchaseing a property which is very difficult process..thank you Lisa.

Professional, dedicated, available, technologically adept, all words to describe Lisa and reasons why i would highly recommend her as the agent of choice. I had lived in my home for 39 years and had an unusual property. I had listed originally with a friend who tried his best but was not up to date with todays marketing strategies. After 4 months I called Lisa and it was uphill from then on. She made suggestions that made the recreation room lighter and brighter and she then staged the house to maximize its features. A drone came to photograph my extensive yard and we were off and running. We sold in 6 weeks for 95% of asking! If youbwant to sell call,Lisa!

We met Lisa Lanoue shortly after our mother passed away. Before she died, our mother recommended that we work with Lisa to sell her property. Lisa proved to be a very hard working, dedicated and loyal agent and made the experience much less stressful than it chould have been. She went above and beyond our expectations. We are so thankful for Lisa!
By: Susan and Carrie
Lisa as you know a good friend of ours recommended you....but because this sale was to be our "nest egg" it was important for us to seek multiple options. Wow...you were amazing during our initial meeting and were our number one choice to partner with for this sale. We couldn't have been happier with our choice. You are a true professional and an amazing communicator and negotiator. We believed we had a beautiful home and with your magic touch you showcased it perfectly!. We can't thank you enough.....hope you will stay in touch....in about 20 years would you consider coming to Selkirk to help us showcase our Lake House?? Thanks so much Lisa & Felipe!

You did a wonderful job in representing us during the sale process of our townhouse and the purchase process of our new home. It is with pleasure that we let you know that this was a very positive experience and we feel that we have built and enjoyed an excellent relationship. Your fantastic personality and way to be helped us alot in going with ease through these processes.

Our townhouse was excellently priced and we have attained almost 99% of the asking price, while closing the deal in record time and on the desired closing terms.

All of these accomplishments are a direct result of your excellent negotiating skills, high qualification, and housing market knowledge. We can surely affirm that we have made the wisest choice in retaining your real estate services and we can confidently recommend you to anyone interested in a results oriented and very experienced real estate agent.

Lisa, We would like to express our gratitude for selling our house in Milton. Despite the fact that it is currently a 'buyer's market', I knew that you would succeed in getting our house sold. My past experiences with you (sales and purchases in Oakville), showed that you are very professional, thorough and take a proactive approach to the real estate business. You researched carefully to come up with a realistic list price which contributed to a quick sale. You followed up after each showing and provided us with feedback from prospective buyers and their agents. We appreciated the fact that you were always just a call or email away and always responded promptly to any questions or concerns. Buying or selling a home is always a stressful situation, but one thing we did not worry about was our choice of agent. We had complete confidence in your abilities and knew that you would be committed to selling our home. We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone who is looking for an agent who will 'go that extra mile' for their client. We wish you all the best in the future. Thank you again, Hazel and Don
By: Greg and Diane H
Lisa, Diane and I would like to sincerely thank you for the great experience we recently had buying and selling our new and existing home. In fact I should be thanking you for our previous experience as this is the second time that we have bought and purchased with your assistance in the last 3+ years. When selling a home there are always so many unanswered questions, what do we list for? When should we list? Are the market conditions right? You always had the answers, the right ones! Diane and I have done exceptionally well on the sale of both our homes and had received exactly what we were hoping for. Not only did we get a great sale price but in both sales but we also sold in less than one week. Simply outstanding! What is even more amazing is that your in depth market research gave us the insight to purchase our new homes at well below list prices. Your negotiation skills and experience can definitely not be under rated. Everyone wants to feel that they are getting a good deal, but we feel we got great deals! Outside of the financial aspect the most important component in our dealings with you have been on the human side, the ability you have to build a great relationship with us. You always made us feel as we were the most important clients in the world. You always had time for our questions and were very accommodating in all our requests to see homes or lend valuable insight. Diane and I sincerely thank you for all your efforts and making the selling and buying of our homes something not to be feared but to be enjoyed. We continue to recommend you to anyone who needs an experienced analytical, results driven agent. We wish you all the best and thank you! Sincerely, Greg and Diane

Pattie and I wish to thank you for your highly professional and thorough services during our recent sale of our townhouse and purchase of our new home in Oakville. We were very impresses with your knowledge of the real estate market in the surrounding are and found your insights and advice to be truly beneficial. Your very prompt service of listing our townhouse and in such a professional manner, we believe, was the deciding factor in its quick sale. In addition, your negotiating skills proved exemplary when it came time to finalize the purchase of our new home. Most of all, we wish to thank you for making the whole experience an enjoyable one by taking the time to get to know us, our likes and dislikes, and helping us find the right home!
By: Rudy Holl
Dear Lisa, Thank you so much for selling our townhouse. As you know, we tried selling on our own with a low cost, MLS listing only service and were unsuccessful. We also tried another full service realtor when the market was good in the Spring, but you were able to advise us, guide us and encourage us until that "sold" sign was on our lawn. We appreciated your dedication and follow up and your expertise in your field and our neighbourhood. Well done!
By: Lubna Manzoor
We would like to take a moment to thank you for the outstanding customer service you provided during the recent sale of our current home and the purchase of our new home. As you know, when you first approached us after having recently sold another home on our street, we were unsure of whether we were going to list our home and make a move. You provided excellent and sound advice that helped us make the right decisions for our family. As a result, we are now the proud owners of a larger, more beautiful home. You were always available to us, even during the early stages when we were not sure if we would even be listing our home and provided the same high quality service through all stages of the process. Lisa, your strong negotiating skills really assisted us when agreeing upon a sale price for our current home and purchase price for our new home. Your strong knowledge of the local real estate market was a bonus when setting the price for our home and knowing what type of offer to make for the new home purchase. When last minute complications arose, even though they were not directly your responsibility, you still went beyond the normal call of duty to help resolve the problems. In summary, we were delighted with the service you provided and will recommend you as an agent to our friends and family. Should any of your potential client wish to contact us, we would be delighted to provide a reference.

For those of you looking for a professional who will work for you, then that professional is Lisa Lanoue. My partner and I have had the privilege of working with Lisa as our agent on three separate occasions. Lisa has always worked in our best interest and always sought to understand what our needs are. She is an extremely hard worker and I have witnessed her working on behalf of other people who were not her clients. Now that is complete dedication and shows she has passion and the drive in what she does. Lisa goes above and beyond the regular scope of real estate sales. I wouldn't think of obtaining representation elsewhere!!
By: Tricia Crichton
Lisa, I just wanted to say thank you so much for helping me find my new home...and in record time too! Having flown in to town for just the weekend, I only had a few days to find a place. I am sure it's not every day that you meet your client for the first time on a Friday, find and sell them a home by Saturday, have it inspected by Sunday and close the deal by Monday. I can't thank you enough for being so accommodating and finding me the perfect place to call home. I love it! I will definitely recommend you to anyone I know who is looking for an agent. Sincerely, Tricia C.
By: Jessica & Darcy Buchanan
Lisa, Darcy and I would like to sincerely thank you for the wonderful experience we had while selling our house recently in Burlington. There really wasn't a question as to who we would use to sell our house, as we had such a great experience with you when we bought the house through you 5 years ago!! Your personality was and still is very positive and friendly and one that makes the whole process of buying and/or selling a home much less stressful. It was reassuring to us that you always had the answers when we asked all the many questions that we did. It was comforting knowing that you were just a phone call away and that your returning calls were very prompt. The fact that our house sold in 4 days indicates that your investigation of the current market conditions were spot on in determining the right price. You had researched our area in depth to determine the best list price for our house and made the process very quick and stress free. You provided us with excellent advise with staging our home to make it look it's best and were there every step of the way. Thank you so much for making the whole experience a pleasant, quick and easy one. We would definintely not hesitate to recommend you to anyone in the future. Jessica & Darcy Buchanan
By: Brian & Colis Barnes
We valued your expertise and highly recommend you to anyone who is interested in buying or selling their home. Most importantly, your patience with our family and determination to find the perfect home for us is greatly appreciated. As my girls would say "Lisa, YOU ROCK!!!"
By: Michael Patterson
“Lisa is a highly experienced and thorough real estate agent who always put her client (us) first. She was always available and punctual and was patient with our changing timetables.Lisa always provided honest and accurate feedback while assuring us that things were in hand. I appreciated the confidence she portrayed without sensing that we were being pushed into anything we were uncomfortable with. I would recommend Lisa without hesitation.”
By: Nicole Henderson
What a fantasitc expericne we had with Lisa. Her vast knowledge and experience was key in the purchase of our new home. She knew exactly what advice to give so that we would win the bidding war on our new dream home. We were in a stressful situtation where we had to sell our home very quickly and Lisa was up for the task. We sold in 5 days and got more than our asking price. If you are looking for a professional, honest, caring, get the job done kind of agent then Lisa is your gal.
By: Carol and David Johnston
What a fantastic experience!! We have dealt with several Real Estate Representatives in the past, but never have we had a service experience like this one. Customer Service are not just words that Lisa uses to sell herself - they are words she stands by and holds herself accountable to. Her communication style was unprecedented and we always knew where we stood. She made valuable recommendations which resulted in the sale of our home. And that wasn't all; after the sale, she continued to communicate with us to ensure the transition was a seamless one. I would recommend Lisa to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. Thanks for everything Lisa!!
By: Lynn Salisbury
Shaun and I were contemplating selling and buying for many years and so glad that we finally took the plunge with Lisa by our side! I cannot say enough about Lisa's work ethic! With Lisa by our side I always felt that we were in good hands. Lisa certainly dotted her i's and crossed her t's when it came to all of the legals. This is a lot of money and can be very stressful and the last thing you want to worry about is if your agent is doing it right! When you are going through the process you seem to be waiting by the phone a lot. I always knew that when Lisa had the information that she would pass it along immediately! As a slightly impatient person, this was a big one for me! I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about Lisa. If you are thinking of jumping into the crazy world of real estate-you want Lisa Lanoue by your side!
By: Carol McLean
Walter and I would like to thank you for all you have done. The time you spent over the past months so that we were totally prepared for the listing/sale process was most appreciated. You were professional, knowledgable and very understanding as we bombarded you with questions. We trusted you totally and put ourselves in your hands and it was WELL WORTH IT. Your patience helped us through a very stressful time and a successful sale. Thank you for your support. We truly understand why you came so highly recommended.
By: Brad Cassidy
I could not have asked for a better experience with Lisa. She went above and beyond to help me find my first home. Her service was outstanding. The communication was easy and comfortable. Lisa's negotiating experience helped me get my place at the price that I wanted. The entire home searching process completely fit my needs. The regular email posts and information sharing was extremely helpful. All in all, I couldn't be happier! Thank you Lisa!!!
By: Jenni & Jason Wood & Calvin
Lisa & Felipe, Buying our first home could not have been a more comfortable and enjoyable experience as it was working with both of you. It is rare to find an Agent where you can feel 100% confident that they only have their clients' best interests in mind while house shopping. You shared your expertise and advice throughout the entire process and ensured we felt comfortable throughout this competitive spring market. One of the most important things in finding a great realtor is finding someone whose morals and ethics go beyond the bare minimum. We can honestly say that you have far exceeded these expectations! You both helped with your humor and flexibility to make this process for us nothing less than amazing. We both want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us find the home of our dreams! Thank you again! We look forward to working with you in the future for the next stage in our lives and upsizing :) Sincerely, Jenni & Jay

I met Lisa and Felipe through my parents, John and Annie Gibson, who were selling their house in Mississauga to move to a retirement residence in Newmarket. My parents heard of Lisa from a neighbour of theirs who had recently sold for the same reason and who were very pleased with the service and satisfaction given by Lisa. John set out to find Lisa when his time came to move. Lisa and Felipe showed up and that's when we met as I was there for support for my elderly parents who can have difficulty communicating. Lisa and Felipe were very patient, understanding and explained everything to my parents and myself. A few months later when my parents were actually ready to list, Lisa and Felipe came back and proceeded with the listing. They were informative, honest, helpful and reassuring through the whole process and courteous with staging and rearranging their personal possessions. The house was listed on a Tuesday and by Thursday, after staging and pictures, there were showings, showings on the Friday with an inspection and an offer but there were more showings and also an open house scheduled on the Saturday with anticipation of more offers. Lisa and Felipe were very courteous and accommodating of my parents through this whole busy time and were working very diligently to be fair to all, including keeping myself informed so I could be supportive to my parents. They searched for a copy of the survey themselves when the original could not be located. It was a marathon real estate experience. By Sunday afternoon my sister, Barb, myself, my parents and Lisa and Felipe sat and discussed the two offers now that had come in and were delighted to settle for $5,000 over the asking price. Lisa and Felipe made this whole transition in our lives one of exciting and happy memories. I thank them for their devotion and hard work in selling my parents home not their house. I recommend Lisa Lanoue and Felipe Berrizbeitia to be trusted names with experience, knowledge and integrity just like their business card says. Again I say, you two are awesome. You made it happen and our family is so grateful for the opportunity to deal with people like you. Hope someday we will see you again. Thank you, Ann Schneider

Hi, just a note to say thanks for all you have done for us throughout this process. As first time buyers, we had a lot of unanswered questions regarding the purchase of our home. Thank you for providing the answers to many of these and giving us informed advice on the homes that we visited!
