“As buyers, Kathy and Pavlena were there for us every step of the way. They worked with us as our family grew, and our needs changed, and were extremely patient, thorough and accommodating—even when our search extended beyond Toronto. They were always looking out for us, sending us great listings and keeping us informed of market changes. When we loved a house we saw, they gave us the scoop—and not just about the house; about the neighbourhood, the recent sales, and what to expect in the event that we made an offer. With the Nested team, we always felt very taken care of, and in the end, we found a house that will now be our nest, for many years to come.

We are extremely grateful to the Nested team for the amazing work they did to sell our home in Toronto’s west end. Not only did they work with us to take an already great home and make it over the top gorgeous, but they worked diligently to think through the right sales and marketing strategy including: insights to determine an ideal time to market, data to support our pricing decision, an impressive promotional campaign with unbelievable social and direct marketing support, and professional sales materials that told the story of our home with “magazine quality” copy and photography.

As seasoned sellers, we were truly blown away. The results were amazing, and we are especially delighted that the home we once loved so dearly will continue to bring joy to the new nesters for years to come. If you are looking for a team to understand your needs, help execute on a vision, and make things happen in a very professional way—the Nested team is it. They are top notch.”

“We recently sold our home in Parkdale and were lucky enough to meet Pavlena and Kathy—the savvy Nested team—when they knocked on our door one day to introduce themselves as neighborhood specialists, and that they decidedly were! The dynamic duo expertly staged our home to enhance its natural beauty and identify its best features.

They possessed insightful knowledge about the history of Parkdale and demonstrated a smart, effective strategy in a changing market that still resulted in multiple offers. We really enjoyed working with them and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a realtor.”

“Kathy and Pavlena are exactly the people you want as your realtors. They are friendly, know what they’re doing, and get things done. The level of experience they have is a huge asset. My partner and I used Nested for both selling and purchasing a new home, so I feel like we’ve seen both sides of things. Each time we worked with them it felt like they went the extra mile to make sure our needs were met. I recommend Nested to friends in person pretty regularly. I highly recommend their services.”

“Kathy and Pavlena helped us buy our new house and sell our condo. They were always available to discuss our situation and explain everything we needed to know to keep calm during the process. I want to emphasize their amazing work on staging our place, the astonishing pictures, and marketing. Our condo was sold extremely fast and above our expected price! Thank you again for all your help!”

“NESTED NAILED IT!

We decided to sell our house in Roncesvalles because we wanted more space for our growing family. Our first choice was to stay in the neighbourhood. We had grown to love Roncy and couldn’t imagine leaving, but we convinced ourselves we had to based on the current market trends. In short, we felt priced out of our own neighbourhood. Nested reassured us that wasn’t the case.

Kathy and Pavlena are a dream team. They really took the time to get to know us and our family’s needs. They made this stressful process very manageable and their communication style was clear and concise. They are very well connected—from handymen to mortgage brokers—they know everyone you need to close the deal. We want to stress that their advice was always honest; we never felt like they were telling us what we wanted to hear, which was invaluable to us. And we genuinely enjoyed our time spent with them.

After only four days on the market, Nested’s amazing staging and marketing campaign resulted in a bully offer which led to multiple bids that were beyond our expectations.”

At the same time, a house that checked all the boxes had come up for sale in our neighbourhood and because of their coaching, we were ready to make a bully offer less than 24 hours after receiving one. We bought and sold on the same weekend… And to top it off we ended up staying on our street!

We’ve been in our new home for 5 months now and we absolutely love it. If you are thinking of buying or selling, please take the time to chat with these two, you won’t regret it!

“Pavlena and Kathy recently found me the perfect condo investment in a competitive neighbourhood in west Toronto. Their deep knowledge of Toronto real estate helped me understand where and when I should invest. When it came time to make an offer on a property that met my criteria, I knew the Nested team was in my court when they negotiated a fantastic price and sale in my best interests.

What do I like about this team? Not only do they know Toronto real estate trends they strive to understand where you are in life and what home or investment property is right for you. I am also a repeat client of Kathy, as she sold my home in 2015 $100K+ over list price. You can’t go wrong with the Nested team!”

“Kathy and Pavlena went above and beyond and sold our house in less than a week on the market! They staged our place beautifully, did a wonderful marketing campaign and generated a ton of interest for our semi-detached house. They are organized, great with communication, and we would certainly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell!”

“We sold our Bloor West Village home with Kathy and Pavlena in March 2017 and couldn’t be happier with this dynamic team! We trusted Kathy’s expertise in this market to help us complete final upgrades and finishing touches to our home, which were highlighted beautifully by their impeccable taste in staging. Kathy and Pavlena’s marketing efforts drew in huge traffic and we sold our house in a matter of days for over list price. Throughout this process, Kathy and Pavlena were consummate professionals and wonderful to deal with. Thank you, Kathy and Pavlena!”

“Kathy was amazing to work with. It was our very first time making a home purchase, and so we were completely lost going into the housing market. Kathy was great from the beginning—she was super patient with us and walked us through each and every step of home buying. She was very honest with her recommendations and advice, which we greatly appreciated.

She is also incredibly hard working, working practically around the clock sending us listings and taking us to private viewings. Given the stress of home buying, her super upbeat and cheery personality definitely helped take the edge off, and was incredibly encouraging throughout. We couldn’t recommend her enough! I would definitely work with her in the future should we ever need real estate help!”

“Kathy recently helped us sell our home in Bloor West Village and she really went above and beyond in so many ways. We feel her effort and expertise was the main factor as to why our house sold significantly over list price in just one week. Over a five-week period she worked with us daily—from providing professional staging and a detailed to-do list to get our house ready for sale, to creating a customized marketing and sales strategy that most agents don’t typically offer.

We were very impressed with her professionalism, creativity, and marketing-savvy and we couldn’t have been happier with the website, photos and video tour, and all the marketing materials she created to make our home stand out in the market. Kathy demonstrated a deep knowledge of the local real estate market and effectively targeted active buyers, which resulted in 40+ viewings in six days! And, on a personal note, Kathy is a very personable, level-headed, honest, and very hard-working agent who made the process so much easier for us! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone selling a home.”

“Kathy and Pavlena are the best at what they do! They helped us get our dream home and sold our previous property in record time. They went above all expectations and worked extremely hard for us. They were both on call at all times to answer any questions we had. They made what can usually be a very stressful experience, an easy and comfortable one. From staging to marketing to their knowledge of the business, I recommend them 100% if you want to get your home sold fast for top dollar or finally purchase the home you’ve always wanted.”

“Choosing to work with Kathy and Pavlena was the best real estate decision we could have made. Not only did they help us find the home of our dreams, but when it came time for us to sell our house, they made things very easy for us. From an organized schedule to sound advice on decluttering and high-value updates, they were a true partner in the process.

They also work with best-in-class partners (e.g., stagers, photographers, home inspectors, social media, etc.) which ensured our home received a ton of interest during the sale and ultimately resulted in a very favourable outcome and seamless transition. I’d recommend Kathy and Pavlena to anyone.”
