We found Michael through a yard sign in the neighbourhood, and from our very first meeting we knew we were in good hands. He responded quickly, came exceptionally prepared with information about his services, market research for the area, and a realistic estimate of what he believed our home could sell for. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. Michael was always responsive by text, email, or phone, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure our needs were not only met, but exceeded. His knowledge, professionalism, and thoughtful marketing strategy gave us confidence every step of the way. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated real estate professional who delivers top-notch service.
When we first decided to list our home, the process felt overwhelming. Michael’s expertise made all the difference—he guided us through every step with confidence and care. He kept us informed about local market trends to ensure our listing price was competitive. When it came time to sell and then purchase, Michael was incredibly patient and understanding. During showings, he pointed out details we hadn’t considered, which helped us make informed decisions. When we were ready to submit an offer, he kept us updated throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Michael for anyone looking to sell, buy, or both!
If you're considering Michael and somehow stumbled upon his name through the grape vine, just know it's for good reason. Michael is as good as they come and you can rest assured that you no longer need to look for a broker. Michael is not only professional but personable. He is willing to sit down with his clients and understand their needs, their desires, and their current circumstance so that he can create a picture of how to best serve them. At no point in the entire process of buying a house did I feel out of place or uncomfortable because I knew Michael had both mine and my fiancé's best interest in mind. I'm not sure if its his perfectly tailored suits, his calm demeanor or his ability to explain the elements of buying a house or a combination of all of the above, but Michael is a consummate professional. He will undoubtedly get the job done and ensure that you're satisfied through the entire process. He'll take time out of his day to explain things if you have questions, see whatever residence you want to see, and be a voice of honesty and integrity when discussing your purchase. As long as Michael is a broker, we won't be looking any further.
Michael was always available to answer our questions. He always worked around our schedule and was very knowledgeable about not only each home we viewed but the area in which we wanted to move.
Michael was able to find my dream house and get it negotiated at a decent price for me given the market conditions
Michael handled the sale of my property well with ongoing changing real estate market conditions
Michael was absolutely amazing in addressing every little detail, from sold prices in the area, to finding out if there’s any issues in the homes we saw. His knowledge of electrical and construction sets him apart from other realtors. His professionalism is unparalleled, I honestly don’t know how he does it. I have learned a lot about how I want to live my own life through Michael. If there is anyone looking to purchase or sell their property, please give Michael a call. You will be so glad that you did. Especially in this current market, where everything is so uncertain. Michael will provide you with that necessary calmness in the chaos.
We heard about Michael Da Silva through our friend, Don Chen, who's a mortgage broker. We gave Michael a shot, had a lot of questions for him during our first meeting and had a relatively good idea of deciding to go with him after that. Little did we know, we signed up with one of the most generous, hard-working, affable, great energy realtors who went above and beyond to prepare/coordinate the listings we were interested in. When we found our gem, he worked so hard that night to get our offer through and like that, our first offer got accepted. With both my husband and I having busy work schedules, Michael went above and beyond to see that our deposit cheque got to the seller's realtor. 36 McCulley St. will forever have its initial memory with Michael Da Silva in mind, for as long as we live there. And I would go back to him the day we want to sell and look for a new place. I'd strongly recommend him to friends, family and work colleagues - Michael, you've been SUCH A PLEASURE to work with, I feel like we've made a new friend out of the 10 days and 15+ showings we went to together! At every listing viewing, he would inspect the house thoroughly with us, exchange his opinions and entertain our ideas. The fact that he has a trades background in electrician and a little bit of plumbing, really helped us with understanding the inner workings of a proper functioning home. He has such a patient and kind soul, the whole process felt like such a breeze with him. I felt supported as a client, I felt like my needs were heard and met, and he was extremely adaptable. I can write an entire novel documenting our experience end-to-end with Michael, but I won't bore you with the details! Our overall sales experience with Michael has left such a positive impression and memory in our first detached home buying experience in this crazy market today. I definitely think it's a combination of the realtor and client that can establish this - and Michael certainly made it extremely easy for us to connect with him quickly. Obviously with the amount of money required to buy a home these days, these experiences become very personal and I'm really glad with the entire process of signing with Michael to represent us, to the day we got our offer accepted, and the follow-ups/communication with the selling agent afterwards, it's definitely left an impression on me :)
