Ana Santos & Sara Branco | Toronto Realtors at Harvey Kalles Real Estate

Ana has been my Toronto area realtor for many years now. When it came to sell my son's university property which is located out of town, I decided to give Ana and Sara the listing instead of a local agent located in that city. Ana and Sara quickly arranged for painters, rented a truck and drove out to beautifully stage the property. We received 3 offers within one week, and the home was sold for 99% of asking price in a somewhat challenging market. It was also sold for top dollar/sales in that area. I am grateful for their hard work and top negotiating skills.Alex and Ben.

To Whom It May Concern:Our first encounter with Ana was at an open house she conducted last year. That's when we started our magical connection with her. Since then we started to work together to search for our right home. While we have bought and sold a number of houses and real estates, we have never before experienced such a level of excellence.Ana guided us through the whole process with lots of patience and respect. Not once did we feel that we were pushed in any direction. She just simply provided the information we needed to make a decision. Ana is veryknowledgeable with the real estate market. And with her extensive connections and network, we ended up with an opportunity to purchase a new custom built home even before it was listed.When it came to our time to sell, Ana proved herself again with very realistic strategies. We were amazed that she was so capable in all aspects. From being a photographer, staging, to interior design. She really does it ALL! Mostimportantly, our house was sold within just 10 days!The services provided were above and beyond our expectation. She is so passionate and enthusiastic. Everybody that deals with her just loves her uplifting personality. Her goal really is simply taking care of her clients. In fact,we have already recommended her to both friends and relatives who have mentioned purchasing or selling their homes.And our relationship doesn't end with the sales. We will not only be references for life, but also friends. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Ana!Stephen Yuen

It was our lucky day when we decided to pick up the phone and call Ana Santos to sell our home. Listing, prepping, and selling our home with Ana and Sara was both a pleasure and an excellent decision. From our first meeting to when the house was sold, we always felt that they had our best interests in mind. They were easy to talk to and were always accessible, guiding us through the process with demonstrated knowledge/experience.When advising on price, Ana demonstrated an intimate and thorough understanding of the value of homes listed and sold in various locations in and around our neighbourhood. As such she was able to accurately estimate a value range (and handicap the risks) in this time of interest rate changes.Our home was beautifully staged. Updates were completed by experienced and personable professionals. Ana spent a great deal of time sourcing and designing the above, and she always consulted with us to ensure that we felt part of the process.Ana and Sara also did an excellent job marketing our home on social media and through MLS. The photography and the marketing materials for agents and their clients was also extremely well done.Showings and communication/feedback from realtors and clients was smooth and well organized. Ana provided feedback on her interactions with realtors, and stood firm when necessary – highly professional.Once again, we feel very happy that we chose Ana and Sara as our realtors. They were very sensitive to us in this stressful period, and they were able to problem solve creatively and with a sense of humour. We would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.

Ana and Sara are seriously the best in the biz! Within a couple of days of listing we got an offer on our place that was much higher than we expected. The staging was incredible, our place has never looked better. They were extremely attentive (even facilitated a late night deal on a Saturday night), and knowledgeable every step of the way. We will definitely be asking Ana and Sara to represent us again in the future. 10/10 recommend! Thank you!!

When Ana and Sara say they are about building relationships that last—they really really mean it! I started working with Ana 5 years ago before Sara joined her…and as life goes we changed our minds about the timing of a move. Over those years if I called Ana, she was always accessible and generous with information and support. Add to this, she marries her detailed knowledge of communities and housing/market history with flexibility and understanding of our specific context and needs. Through the entire process—the strategy of selling/buying timing and this crazy market, renovating, staging, selling and purchasing, and the transition time after—we could completely trust Ana and Sara to…know or solve literally everything!! They have a network of trusted professionals and tradesmen that they have fostered over many years, and they really worked as a team with us. If any little or bigger “emergency” happened I had complete trust it could be efficiently and calmly problem-solved—and with a sense of goodwill and…even humour sometimes! We feel very very lucky and are deeply grateful that Ana and Sara were with us through all the ups and downs— we feel we arrived in the best place we possibly could because of their dedication and love for their work.

I will never work with another team of real estate agents! We had a very unique situation. Ana & Sara had the utmost patience with us in making it happen. Our purchases and sale were seamless. We had complete trust in all advice that was given. Buying and selling can be a very stressful time. Their experience, knowledge, know-how and advice made the process so much easier. They managed the process from start to finish; from connecting us with financial experts and legal to staging and advertising. We were assisted in all aspects of the transition from looking for a home to the final move. We are so grateful for Ana & Sara’s time, patience and guidance. We could not have asked for a better experience!

Ana Santos and Sara Branco are an amazing real estate duo! My wife and I had been anxious about beginning the search for a new home given all the horror stories we had heard about bidding wars and escalating prices. We lucked out when we chose this team to help us in this search. Ana and Sara had helpedour parents out in the past and we were impressed with their knowledge of the area as well as their vast networking capabilities. In the matter of four visits to different homes, we were ready to place a bully offer on a home we liked. When going for a second visit to that home in order to prepare the offer, there wasanother listing that came to market that also ticked all of our boxes. Proactively, Ana set up an appointment for us to go see that house right after. Good thing she did, because before we went to sleep that night, we had put it an offer for that home that was ultimately accepted. It didn't end there fortunately for us. As soon as that offer had solidified, Ana also had a private buyer set up to come see our current property. Three nights later, that home was also sold! We couldn't have been happier as this team made the process seamless and not to mention very prompt. We will definitely refer Ana and Sara to any one of our friends and family as they are professionals in what they do!

What a wonderful experience it was working with Ana. She understood our needs, wants and then she delivered big time. Ana responded quickly, effectively at all hours of the day and night. She coordinated the sale from start to end with dedication, compassion and everyone came out a winner. I highly recommend Ana as your realtor if you want the job done right.

We heard about Ana and Sara after we had purchased our first home in Etobicoke. Thinking it was our forever home we joked that if we ever sold, we would call them. Job opportunities called and after 2 years of ownership, we called Ana to help us sell our home. We were 75% through our renovations and Ana and Sara provided a very thoughtful tiered approach to finishing we could take, without any pressure throughout thesale process. From providing quality contractor contacts, offering style input, thoughtful staging, timing expertise, to strong negotiating, Ana and Sara brought a professional and executorial presence that alleviated all nervesthat come with selling. We look forward to calling them again and referring them to our friends.

It is wholeheartedly and without reservation that I recommend Ana Santos. From the second she walked into our home to meet us and it, she was professional, insightful, and gave us the impression that our happiness andsuccess would be assured. She shouldered not only the usual and expected responsibilities with grace and integrity but went beyond the call of duty when we found ourselves having to manage the property and its sale from abroad. She has a keen eye and consistently displays an admirable dedication and expertise. If you want a capable and reliable talent to work with on the sale of your home, Ana’s your agent
