We knew from her initial presentation, with her previous business experience, that our home&amp;nbsp;would be well marketed and that she would offer us the level of customer service we expected from a real estate agent.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';color:blue;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Through the whole process, her devotion to her customers was well beyond what we had anticipated. She was thorough in her follow-ups&amp;nbsp;and would keep us advised of the activity in the market. Although we had a property management company looking after the house, she&amp;nbsp;watched over our home and the work for the property management company we had hire in our absence as if we had been there. Having Debra&amp;nbsp;gave us great peace of mind because in the midst of having to move, relocating the family and starting new jobs, we knew that someone was watching out for us. Beyond everything else, Debra gave us advice and would always ensure to put our interests before her own.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';color:blue;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Debra is someone we have learned to deeply trust and truly appreciate both as an agent and as an individual. We are extremely happy to have chosen her to sell our home. She has been outstanding and we strongly recommend her services to everyone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';color:blue;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Karine Abgrall and Pascal Chouinard&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';color:blue;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Arial','sans-serif';color:blue;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.debracurran.ca/aggbug.aspx?PostID=967901" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Mississauga+Real+Estate+Agent/default.aspx">Mississauga Real Estate Agent</category><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Oakville+Real+Estate/default.aspx">Oakville Real Estate</category><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Debra+Curran+Real+Estate+Agent/default.aspx">Debra Curran Real Estate Agent</category><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Oakville+Royal+LePage+Debra+Curran/default.aspx">Oakville Royal LePage Debra Curran</category></item><item><title>Debra is a very special, perhaps unique realtor</title><link>http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/2011/04/27/job-well-done.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 27 Apr 2011 21:31:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">802185ea-7a5c-4812-815b-ce497dfb3b49:949802</guid><dc:creator>Debra Curran</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/comments/949802.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/commentrss.aspx?PostID=949802</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1f497d;font-size:11pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;Over the years, I&amp;rsquo;ve dealt with many (different kinds of) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1f497d;font-size:11pt;"&gt;realtors&amp;nbsp;and every time I&amp;rsquo;ve had a bad experience, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1f497d;font-size:11pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;except&lt;/u&gt;

We had been in the same home for 18 years and knew what we wanted but needed the experience that Debra offered. We were impressed with Debra when she was conducting an open house and immediately felt that she would be able to provide us with the knowledge and business savvy to help us sell our home and find a new one.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 11.9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:black;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:black;font-size:10pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 11.9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:black;font-size:10pt;"&gt;Debra helped us to prepare our house, offering detailed recommendations and even was there with the&amp;nbsp;photographer to ensure that the home showed well. Her diligence resulted in multiple offers. Her guidance she offered helped us to properly consider each of the offers to make the right decision. This was invaluable to us as first time sellers and provided us with the insights we needed to quickly sell our house over asking price. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 11.9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:black;font-size:10pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 11.9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:black;font-size:10pt;"&gt;In finding a new home for us she tirelessly went through homes on sale and really understood what we were looking for.

She&amp;#39;s a great listener and will do her utmost to satisfy your needs but she&amp;#39;s not shy in suggesting alternatives when she believes it&amp;#39;s in your best interest.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 34.55pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 34.55pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;She did such a thorough job in buying and selling our previous homes that&amp;nbsp;I called her back three and a half years later to do it again. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Our experience the 2&lt;sup&gt;nd&lt;/sup&gt; time around with Debra was even more positive as she provided great advice on preparing the home and featured its best rooms and traits beautifully on her user friendly website, MLS and in stunning hard copy brochures. She also kept us involved every step of the way and her suggested pricing, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;home prep and advertising strategy helped us sell quickly and secure a price that was beyond our expectation. This was no small feat when you consider she pulled this off in one of the toughest markets we&amp;#39;ve seen in decades. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 34.55pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;

type of sales person. After talking with her and hearing how she worked, it was a given that she was going to be my agent. She pays attention to detail and wants to understand your needs, it&amp;rsquo;s not about her, she is all about her clients. She wants to provide you with the best possible outcome. In selling my house, she was instrumental in &amp;lsquo;staging&amp;rsquo; the house to allow it to show it&amp;rsquo;s true potential, that even meant re-painting walls and with reluctance but true faith it was done. Re-arranging your home is stressful but Debra kept re-assuring me that this is how to get the maximum show ability and it worked. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;When it came time to negotiate the deal Debra was there with her calm and collected demeanor, she goes into the negotiation 100% committed to you and getting the best price, her ongoing communication&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt; with me and the &amp;lsquo;What next steps&amp;rsquo; to take advice was so helpful and re-assuring that the deal came off so smoothly.&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;When it came time to buy, Debra again gave me all her focus and attention to understand what I wanted in &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;a home and even though I may have not been clear - she already knew, because she really listens and gets to know you so she has that idea of what type of place you will be happy in to suit you, your lifestyle and your budget. We looked at many homes but she knew as soon as we walked through the front door of one that &amp;lsquo;This was it&amp;rsquo; and she was not wrong, I bought it, we had a tough negotiation but Debra persevered and really went to bat for me, knowing we could not let this on get away. It was tense times but Debra kept me calm and always kept the communication open to what was going on both sides. To end this great story my new home became the talk of her office, as during the home inspection we found that &amp;ldquo;Surprise&amp;rdquo; in the attic above the garage and not even&amp;nbsp;THAT could phase her &amp;ndash; as&amp;nbsp;we both knew this still was the house for me. ***&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;Thanks Debra for all you hard work, it was such an enjoyable experience.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 12pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Iain Hastie,&amp;nbsp; RBC, Royal Bank of Canada, Toronto, Ontario&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 9.35pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt 9.35pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;Visit Debra at &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.debracurran.ca/"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" size="3"&gt;http://www.debracurran.ca&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.debracurran.ca/aggbug.aspx?PostID=559396" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Selling+with+Debra+Curran/default.aspx">Selling with Debra Curran</category><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Hastie+RBC/default.aspx">Hastie RBC</category></item><item><title>Thank you from the Ligieza Family - to Debra Curran</title><link>http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/2009/10/19/thank-you-from-the-ligieza-family.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 19 Oct 2009 19:05:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">802185ea-7a5c-4812-815b-ce497dfb3b49:559389</guid><dc:creator>Debra Curran</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/comments/559389.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/commentrss.aspx?PostID=559389</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;Buying a home can be a complicated and stressful endeavor.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; When my husband and I decided to look for a new house, we soon discovered we weren&amp;rsquo;t quite sure what we were looking for.&amp;nbsp; For two years we attempted to do it on our own, looking through MLS, going to open houses and never being able to find what we wanted.&amp;nbsp; We were about to give up and stay put when we met Debra.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;We immediately fell for her charm and friendly personality and asked her to be our agent.&amp;nbsp; It was the best thing we could have done.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;We can honestly say that&amp;nbsp;Debra is the perfect agent.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;She puts you first, makes you a priority and treats you like her only client.&amp;nbsp; She listened to our wants and really paid attention to our needs.&amp;nbsp; When Debra showed us properties, she was always enthusiastic and never made us feel rushed or pressured.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;She was always available to us, had the time to answer all of our questions and returned all of our emails and calls immediately. Her skills and knowledge of the local market and the purchasing process were invaluable.&amp;nbsp; When we found our perfect home, &amp;nbsp;just a few months later, Debra guided us every step of the way in putting in an offer, negotiating with the seller, and getting our offer accepted in a very short time.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;One of her strongest assets, and where she really shines, is her negotiating skills.&amp;nbsp; She fought for us and got us the best possible deal.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; During all of this, she ensured everything went well during an anxious period, comforting us and allaying any concerns we had.&amp;nbsp; Once our offer was accepted, Debra utilized her contacts, helped us with the inspection and offered good consultation on the remainder of the process.&amp;nbsp; When the time came to sell our old house, we were full of confidence knowing that we had Debra on our side.&amp;nbsp; She actually exceeded expectations and brought much more to the table then we could have asked for.&amp;nbsp; She gave us advice and made suggestions on preparing for the sale and making small improvements to our home in order to maximize our profit.&amp;nbsp; Debra always kept us involved in the process and had respect for our input, consulting and working with us on every decision.&amp;nbsp; This was so helpful because we actually felt quite in control of the whole process.&amp;nbsp; Because of Debra&amp;rsquo;s knowledge and negotiating skills we ended up selling our home for a price very close to what we paid for the new one (which is twice as big!).&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;We can&amp;rsquo;t express just how grateful we are, that Debra was a part of the whole experience.&amp;nbsp; We could not have asked for anyone better to work with.&amp;nbsp; Debra is a hardworking agent that will look out for you and your best interests and not see you as a &amp;ldquo;commission cheque&amp;rdquo;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;Miroslaw &amp;amp; Grazyna Ligieza&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;Visit Debra at &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.debracurran.ca/"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman" size="3"&gt;http://www.debracurran.ca&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;color:black;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.debracurran.ca/aggbug.aspx?PostID=559389" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Selling+with+Debra+Curran/default.aspx">Selling with Debra Curran</category><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Debra+Curran/default.aspx">Debra Curran</category><category domain="http://www.debracurran.ca/blogs/debra_curran_clients/archive/tags/Ligieza+Family/default.aspx">Ligieza Family</category></item></channel></rss>
