CLIENT REVIEWS

I worked with Diane to purchase my home over 20 years ago, and 20 years later she was the agent of choice for selling that same home. I was thrilled that once again she was in my court.

Diane is an incredibly seasoned and professional real estate agent. In addition to providing excellent advice, she is caring, compassionate, and always has a positive demeanor. Diane goes the extra mile for her clients, and importantly listens. She demonstrated this repeatedly during this recent process.

The decision to sell my home was very emotional and stressful. I do not think that I could have gone through this process with anyone other than Diane. At times I joked that she is a real estate agent, a therapist, a cheerleader and a family member.

Any real estate agent can represent you in a purchase or sale, what distinguishes Diane is her ability to bring her professional insights along with her humanity. A winning combination.

I have moved a number of times over the years and my recent experience with Diane Litchen at Harvey Kalles was excellent! Diane’s response time to emails and texts was almost immediate and she went above and beyond in working with my schedule to ensure that I saw every property that I was interested in, often multiple times. Diane was hugely helpful in narrowing my options and she spent hours comparing properties for me. I ultimately ended up buying the perfect home and I can’t thank Diane enough for all of her hard work and dedication!

Dear Diane, I want to thank you with all my heart for helping me find my new home. We have been living here for awhile now and I can't begin to tell you how much this new home is the perfect fit for us. You patiently worked with me over several months as we explored so many neighbourhoods in Toronto. You were able to give me the pros and cons of each neighbourhood. Thank you for all your patience and persistance. Thank you for your support. I felt so confident working with you. As a single woman I really appreciated your support and your ability to educate me on the important aspects of buying a house. I learned so much in this process with you. You are so knowledgable. I really felt you had my back when we put in that offer and then you made sure that all the i's were dotted and t's crossed to make sure all the paper work was done properly. All your work helped me enjoy the process of house hunting and finding the most wonderful house to create the home I had envisioned.

We are the ones to be thanking you for joining us on this journey! Honestly we were so impressed with you 12 years ago as we embarked on our decision to move or renovate that we always said if we have the opportunity to buy another home you would be the only person we would call. Your always keen interest to research and get information, your incredible calm, and your savvy business sense made this process so much easier and pleasant for Frank and me. So, thank you for being with our family along this exciting adventure.
Fondly,

We would like to offer our full recommendation for Diane Lynn Litchen as a realtor in Toronto. This past summer, it was our pleasure to have Diane as our constant companion and advisor in the process of buying our house and selling our condominium, both in the Annex neighbourhood. Diane’s extensive experience, reliability, attention-to-detail, and perceptiveness were all invaluable assets to us, whether focussed on guiding us through numerous complex documents, attracting potential buyers for our condominium, or explaining the workings of – and of course engaging in – negotiations. Diane was always available to us through email and phone, and endeavoured to address our questions in a timely manner. Diane also connected us to a terrific network of contacts to take care of tangential services related to buying and selling, such as trusted and competent cleaning services, home inspectors, photographers, stagers, and handymen. The result was a speedy home purchase and condominium sale, in both cases exceeding our expectations. You are in safe, capable, friendly, and knowledgeable hands with Diane, and well on your way to finding your dream home or dream home-buyer!

We feel very fortunate to have had Diane in our corner for the search and purchase of our first home. As first time buyers, we appreciated Diane's patience, honesty and guidance. In particular, Diane highlighted important considerations about home construction quality and neighbourhoods that informed our decisions. Her market knowledge and professionalism were invaluable, especially when it came down to a multiple bid situation.

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with real estate agent , Diane Litchen, for both the sale of our house and the purchase of a new home.

Since we had no recent experience in the real estate market , she encouraged and assisted in educating us, so that there would be no hesitation when the right house came along!

Diane is highly knowledgeable regarding the market, but beyond her expertise she is warm, friendly and very patient. She understood our specific needs in a new living space , ie area to create a workshop, a grassy backyard, and kayak storage!

Following some discouragement after looking for several months , Diane’s optimism and support kept us motivated. We received ongoing helpful advice.

The sale of our house and purchase of our new one was smooth and successful . Every detail was looked after, and we couldn’t have asked for a better outcome!

Thank you Diane for always making us feel like we were your priority and for such a positive experience.

For a competent, practical, knowledgeable, trustworthy and "get the job done" real estate agent, I recommend Diane Litchen without reservation.    My husband and I did not purchase our home until almost two years after having employed Diane. We viewed and considered the relative merits of at least 100 properties. Diane always gave sensible advice, in what is invariably a streesful time for a couple -- buying a home in the always-challenging Toronto real estate market.

My husband and I have bought and sold properties in NYC, London, Halifax and Toronto. Diane is the best agent we ever had. We would certainly hire her again.

When we first bought our home in the Leaside/Davisville village area, we wanted a local realtor with strong knowledge of the area, and Diane was that person. She worked tirelessly with us day and night to find a home that would suit our needs. Nine years later when we needed to move due to career change, Diane was delighted to work with us again, and us with her. She maximized the value of our home by pointing out specific details and changes we needed to make to ensure the strongest potential buyer interest. Diane is passionate, energetic and thorough. She absolutely cares about doing the best job she can for her clients, and she delivers! I would not hesitate to recommend Diane to anyone who needs to make a real estate transaction with an engaging and interested realtor.
