Thank you for visiting buyaproperty.ca. I'm Al, and I know that when it comes to Real Estate, there are always a LOT of questions: When is the right time to buy or sell? What if the market drops or I lose my job? Will I ever be able to afford my dream home? How can buying a property now help secure my retirement later? As a dynamic, tech-savvy sales representative, my goal is to help you navigate these tough questions in a clear, concise, and pressure-free manner.

I was born and raised in Toronto, but today make my home in Durham Region. I specialize in the following areas: Toronto, York Region, Durham Region, Northumberland County, Kawartha Lakes, Muskoka, and Haliburton. From new builds to assignments, resale homes to waterfront properties, I can help you through the process of finding your next home, or selling your current one by providing local experience that you won't get elsewhere. I am a proud memeber of one of the largest real estate brokerages in the GTA with over 1100 sales representatives, which gives me a massive network of contacts to market your property to, and incomparable access to new developments that only a top-producing office can provide.

Are you a millenial struggling to make sense of how you'll be able to afford to buy into the red hot GTA housing market? As prices continue to climb, more and more young people believe there is no hope of them being anything more than life-long renters. That's where I come in; as someone who has been where you are, I can help you understand the benefits of investing in pre-construction and recreational properties to help you turn a modest downpayment into the equity you need for your first home. Already have your home? Let me guide you on the exciting path of income properties, and show you how your investments can make money for you!

My mission is Service. Any salesperson can pop a sign on your lawn a post your home on MLS. My goal is to develop trust, to help you make money, to improve your understanding of the market, and to take the stress out of buying and selling your home. I cannot wait to work with you. Contact me today.
