TestimonialsWhy listen to me ?I could prattle on forever about my heroic deeds in Real Estate, but I think it's much more effective for you to read exact quotes from a smattering of my past delighted buyers and sellers. I'm always amazed when companies cite 90% customer satisfaction as an achievement and yet, if an agent is doing 30 deals a year, he's therefore admitting that he annoyed 3 clients every single year ! If you've been in the business for 10 years, that's at least 30 people running around town with a bad taste in their mouths! That just doesn't cut it for me.I take every single transaction personally and treat each client as I would like to be treated. Ninety percent just doesn't sit well with me and nothing less than a goal of 100% is acceptable. Let's face it, when the bulk of your business is based on past client referrals, as mine is, you can't survive on anything less.
As a side note, every one of these quotes is a real quote from a real person. I have eliminated their last names and numbers to ensure they don't get a barrage of calls. Upon request however I assure you that you can speak personally to each of them. I hope it's single malt.Dear Dave,
We are so greatful for your patience and guidance through our journey to our new home. We are thankful for all of your advice and support along the way!
You once again lived up to your licence plate!
With much gratitude,
George and Nefeli
P. S. George still has that bottle of whiskey for you!
A fellow Realtor would knowHi Dave, you did an absolute perfect job! Thanks you very much for helping John and April. I really appreciate it. Let me steer you through the mazeBoth of us really want to thank you for all your help and the time spent with us. We love the new spot and wouldn’t have been able to get in there without your assistance and helping us navigate through everything. Jamie A. It's good to be saneAs much as I've been nuts during this process I've at least been able to stay some what sane thanks to you. Our bank person Andrew was also impressed and really enjoyed dealing with you. Before we go to bed for the night Frank and I wanted to thank you so much for everything you've done for us. You were able to deal with me when I was stressed out and when I didn't think our place would sell. If anyone we know in the Scarborough/Toronto area needs an agent we'll definately be recommending you. This process went so much better compared to the last time. Hopefully tonight I'll be able to get more than four hours of sleep and Frank more than two. Thanks again for getting us to the point we are now.

Fear notDave I just want to thank you for your excellent job of marketing my home. You were very thorough and also very very helpful when I started to panic. The color brochures of the house were a lovely touch. You were there with a calm head when I panicked and I want to thank you for being so helpful. I will not hesitate to recommend you to anyone that I know who is thinking of selling or buying. Thank you again.

One stop shoppingAs a first time home-buyer and not from the Toronto area, I felt very overwhelmed looking for and purchasing of a home. Dave found me a great location and helped me understand the process to purchasing a home. Dave also arranged a lawyer and mortgage broker which allowed a smooth and worry free environment/closing. Dave was very honest and respectful with me and always looking out and fought for me as a buyer. I highly recommend Dave as an agent and will continue to do so in the future.
Ryan F.

Joyce and Jim B
Aw Shucks !This is the second time I have used the services of Dave Pratt of Keller Williams Referred Realty. To say that Dave is a dynamo at selling houses would be an understatement, but it is his honesty, integrity and diligence that impressed me the most with both sales. He is totally committed to getting you an honest, fair price for your home. I could not recommend anyone higher.
Toty R.

Making new friendsThis was a very overwhelming situation and frustrating sale, it was more like mission impossible but you made it happen. I would like to thank you for not only selling my house but for making me feel more like a friend than a business associate.

Gathering no mossDave was professional, personable, and productive, left no stone unturned and did a great job both in selling and in finding us our pefect new home.
Joy and Mike C., Scarborough
Time is of the essenceDave goes the extra mile. He listened carefully to my wife and I to determine exactly what we wanted and didn't want in a house. He inspected every house we were shown prior to us spending time together looking at houses. This was a tremendous time saver as I worked and lived in Toronto before moving to Pickering. Every house we were shown met our basic criteria. We spent no time looking at homes that didn't meet our needs. Dave was always professional and we felt well served through the whole process. Dave returned calls promptly and did the research required to successfully negotiate our purchase. We would whole-heartedly recommend Dave to anyone looking for a property.
Thomas A., Pickering
Let me ease your anxiety"We whole-heartedly recommend Dave Pratt to anyone who wants to list their house for sale and needs an agent. We found Dave to be very professional, honest and prompt. He explained his plan to us for how he will market our home and carried out each step in a timely manner and exactly as he promised. He provided sound advice on where to price our house according to market conditions for quick movement. Dave also provided valuable input for us to consider in negotiating the best selling price when an offer was submitted, and without the frantic back-and-forth sign-backs that are often the case during offer presentations. Our house sold within only one week for over 97% of our asking price. We were very satisfied with the outcome and the fact that we could quickly move on with the rest of our plans. Thank you, Dave, for your excellent services!"
Agnes R., Pickering
Knowledge is KingDave was extremely professional. With his help and knowledge, our house sold for 98% of the listing price.
Maureen B, Pickering
Pain free treatmentDear Dave, Thank you so very much for making selling our home such a painless experience. We were pleased with your honest and down to earth approach. We appreciate that you were so straight forward about all aspects of the transaction and offered a lot of helpful advice. We were very happy that the house sold so quickly and for what we considered to have been an excellent price. We attribute this, in large part, to your professionalism and hard work in promoting this listing. It was certainly a pleasure working with you. Thanks again.

Another happy couple !Dave Pratt was our real estate agent for the purchase of our new home and the sale of our existing home. Dave was always very helpful and patient as he helped us search for the right home. He was very efficient in making an offer and securing the purchase. We were more than pleased with the quick sale and selling price of our existing home. We found Dave to be a highly professional and effective agent and a very sincere, likeable person to deal with. He helped make the entire process relatively painless. It was always a pleasure dealing with Dave Pratt.

Another happy camperThanks again for your excellent support throughout-it was really good and I felt super taken care of on behalf of our family. Dan N. If I wouldn't buy it myself.......Thanks for your tireless efforts on our house search. You could easily have pressured us into a sale but have been very objective and helpful. Tom and Kate Aw Shucks.OMG you did it !!!! Thanks Dave I know you were the man to sell it !! Donna S. Wow just Wow!After seeing you for the first time in our house, Angelo asked me "how can you compare this guy to xxxxx and I said that that's a very stupid question, there is no comparison at all. It's like from 100 % top to !00% bottom and Angelo was very happy and recognized your professionalism. Knowing how great a professional he was and how successful a businessmen he was I trusted him totally in his opinion. He had nothing but the best to say about you. So although I am dealing with Real Estate Agents almost on daily basis, I too, thought that you are the best of them. It's not about being cunning, lying, tricky etc.. , it's about being intelligent and knowing when, where and how. :) Nancy B Call me the dream weaver.It is with special thanks to you to help us make our dream come true.
