They were knowledgeable, professional, and always available to answer my questions. Their expertise and dedication made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Larry Thornley to anyone looking to buy, sell or lease a home!" When the condo market sales pick up, we will most certainly list our condo with the Steve Augustine Team. Thank you, Larry!"

"Steve and his whole team are so skilled and professional in their work. When Steve sold our home, he put us at ease from the outset. He gave us an overview of his sales process and then talked us through what we needed to do to get our home ready. Our home was beautifully staged and photographed - and it never looked better! As a result, we had over 30 showings in less than two days and our house sold for well-beyond our asking price. When we purchased our new home, we benefited from Tom's expertise in making the right offer, without any haggling or frustration. We could not have asked for a better home buying and home selling experience. Thanks guys!"

"We had the opportunity to work with Tim Goodwin at the Augustine Team during the search of our new home. He was a pleasure to work with and helped us find a lease that worked for us when we had no idea what we were looking for to begin with. He was super supportive and communicative through the whole process and made everything easy for us. Definitely appreciate all his hard work and help. Would’ve have been able to do it without him, we recommend doing business with him. Thank you so much Tim!"

We would recommend Tom and the Augustine team to anyone looking to purchase a home!"

Everything wowed us including the staging, the photos, and the strategy and techniques used to sell our home for the most money possible. Communication was great, with The Team only being a quick text away. They put the time in.. including coming to our home months before selling to offer advice on final reno projects to complete. We recommend The Augustine Team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Niagara region."

"Truly the best buying/selling experience we’ve had! We have worked with a couple other realtors and the level of excellence that Steve and his team delivered can’t be matched! Throughout our selling experience I felt as though every choice we made with Steve was intentional. He was honest, kind, thorough and so professional. He fought for us! When buying our new house and viewing so many, we always felt looked after. The team was very attentive and Steve and Tom made the experience enjoyable instead of tasking. I would recommend the Steve Augustine team to everyone, hands down!"

"We recently sold a home with Andrew Hildebrand from the Augustine Team. Andrew met with my wife and me to discuss our needs in advance and helped us work through a plan to get the home on the market. He had a strong knowledge of the market and provided a clear strategy to market and sell the home. I was impressed with his communication throughout the entire process; from the first meeting until the final sale. He kept in constant communication via phone, text, or video messages. He advocated strongly on our behalf in the negotiations. The pictures and virtual staging helped the home showcase its best features. I would recommend Andrew and the team here. You won’t regret your decision to give Andrew a call and let him lead you through this process."

"My fiancé and I recently purchased our first home with the help of Tom Lang. As not only first time home buyers but also young home buyers this was a completly new process for us. However, from the start, Tom was exceptional. He made us feel comfortable and was able to help us approach topics and questions in ways we were able to better understand. He never left us waiting and was always able to accomodate our schedules. Tom is both an amazing agent and human being, with him we did not feel like just another client. Thankfully we were able to find our home within just a few weeks of working with him but we knew he would be with us until we found the one. Not enough good things can be said regarding Tom and the entire Augustine team. When the time comes for our next purchase, without hesitation we will return to Tom. You will not regret your choice in working with him."
Natasha W.
"We are so thankful that we had Tom to bring us through this house hunting/purchasing process. His knowledge, honesty, communication, and reliability were the reasons that we were able to purchase our first home in a location we never thought we would be able to get with the first purchase. He went above and beyond in order to make sure we had all of the most accurate information we could get and gave us tons of peace of mind when entering into this purchase. We are forever thankful and grateful for Tom and HIGHLY recommend him."

"My parents had such a great experience with Steve Augustine. This is what they had to say: "Thank you for your efficiency and professionalism in selling our house. You made it as seamless as possible, and all your work was done in a more than satisfactory way. We appreciate you accommodating our wishes for a COVID-safe experience. The staging of our home was so well done and beautiful, we felt like moving back in! Thanks for a positive experience all around. E&L""

"My wife and I had a great experience recently working with Tom Lang to buy our first home! Tom made the process of looking at homes fun and easy. He always made the time for us and helped answer our many questions. Once we found the house we loved Tom was pivotal in closing the deal. Without Tom’s expertise I’m sure we would have missed this home. Tom made us feel confident and comfortable in our offer and worked to protect us the whole way. As first time homebuyers Tom helped us navigate this process in a way that was not scary. I highly recommend working with Tom and can confidently say you will feel well taken care of at the end."

Moving can be stressful, but Tom’s kindness, understanding, and patience made all the difference. He always made us feel supported and heard, even during our more challenging moments. His professionalism and dedication smoothed the entire process, and we are so grateful for his guidance. We highly recommend Tom to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate real estate professional."
