“Elizabeth’s devotion to her profession is unparalleled. Her unshakable confidence was evident in every aspect as she helped navigate me through the housing market of 2020. Her professionalism helped to ground and refocus me when I felt like a kid’s lawn sprinkler gone astray. For me, Elizabeth was always “on”… she allowed nothing to slip through her fingers, showing sincerity and respect to everyone involved. Elizabeth was swift to respond and provide guidance at each step of the process in both selling and purchasing. I would highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone.

We were referred to Elizabeth as a local realtor and can honestly say she exceeded our expectations. Our remote house search was quite challenging during COVID and a period where there was limited supply. We ended up purchasing a property without seeing it in person, due to the trust we had in Elizabeth. We would highly recommend Elizabeth as she is experienced, honest, super responsive and will put her client’s needs first.

Elizabeth is the BEST! We were referred to her by a friend for which we are so thankful. We have dealt with her on several occasions now and she never ceases to amaze us with her knowledge of the real estate world – buying and selling – as well as her ability to stage a house perfectly. From beginning to end she is there every step of the way and makes the experience stress-free and enjoyable. We never hesitate to recommend Elizabeth to our family and friends.

We can't say enough about the phenomenal experience we had with Eduardo and Elisabeth during our home search in Ottawa. Moving from GTA, we were completely unfamiliar with the neighborhoods and dynamics of the area. Thankfully, they stepped in and made the transition smooth and enjoyable. From the first meeting, they took the time to understand our needs and preferences, patiently guiding us until we found the perfect match for our family. Their knowledge of the local market was evident, ensuring we made informed decisions in every step of the way. What truly set them apart was their unwavering responsiveness and support. No question or concern was too small, and they were always just a phone call or email away. Their dedication to ensuring our satisfaction was evident in every interaction, making us feel valued and cared for throughout the entire process. As well, their network of contractors has been so helpful. Whenever we needed assistance with home repairs or upgrades, they referred us to skilled professionals who delivered great results! In summary, Eduardo and Elisabeth exceeded our expectations in every way. Their professionalism, warmth, responsiveness, and support are unique, and our family is incredibly grateful for all they've done. We entirely recommend them to anyone in need of a top-notch real estate team. Thank you for everything!

was so fortunate to have Elizabeth to help me to find an ideal home for my parents. I can't recommend her services more than enough! As our Realtor, she helped us find the right house in the right neighborhood for the right price. She was very patient as we were looking for homes over several months in a very competitive market in 2020. She was very informative about the rapidly-changing house market in Ottawa and has no reservations to share her knowledge and insights with us anytime! She even went further to provide information on handyman, house renovations, cleaning services, rental info and etc. We so appreciated that she was our go-to-person for everything related to houses. After closing-date of the house, due to Covid, our parents couldn't come to Canada to live with us in time. Elizabeth helped us again to find ideal tenants to rent out the house in less than a week! In short, she was always on our side working hard to make sure of our needs to be met. The best part about working with Elizabeth was that she was always focused on answering our questions, giving us good and objective advices, and finding homes that met our needs than she was on closing a deal. She is such a professional with a very friendly and uplifting spirit! We would recommend her to anyone anytime!

Nadine was great with helping us find our first home back in Spring 2020. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and listened to our wants and always stayed within our comfort level. Cannot recommend Nadine enough!

We have been Elizabeth Forde's clients through two acquisitions and two sales over the course of six years. She is energetic and conscientious like nobody we've ever worked with before or since (outside of Ottawa, of course). The nicest person you'll encounter--but don't be fooled: a tigress on your behalf. Most importantly, Elizabeth was able to always, patiently elicit what we--a couple that can have different desires--actually needed from the noise of what we said we wanted. We were not disappointed in any way: in the house, the process, the experience. That is worth its weight in gold. We will, again, definitely use this firm for our next real estate transaction in Ottawa area.

My family has had the opportunity to work with Liz Forde on a number of occasions (as both a seller and as a buyer) with each and every time being a fabulous experience! As a seller, Liz and her team know exactly what has to be done to get a home ready for market! They are experts when it comes to establishing a fair market price, staging your home and optimizing marketing opportunities (professional photos, social media etc). These are all done with the goal of maximizing the sales potential of the property; and YES, these things make a huge difference in getting top dollar for your property and for making a quick sale! On the buyer front, Liz really takes time to get to know you (and your family), your needs, style and desires. Liz is NOT a transactional realtor (out to get you into the first house you see for quick buck). I firmly believe that Liz truly wants to put you into a home that fits your needs: the right price and in the right location. Liz is about building long term relationships with her clients, and we trust her with our best interests. We can't recommend Liz highly enough! Professional, knowledgeable, and warm - that is Liz!
