Most of the time, when buying or selling property, the work solicitors do to ensure the proper transaction’s legal status and piece of mind of involved parties, is often taken for granted. Especially, buying the condominium, one of the very important things is the financial status and reserve fund of the condominium property management corporation. This may affect the future buyer’s expenses in many ways.
This is exactly where John’s special attention to details comes in the picture. John saved me $2,700 in my purchase transaction. He did the same a few years ago representing my son in the condominium purchase by saving him $1,330.
Thank you John.
For the past 5 years I have been committed to using John Poletes for all real estate transactions & have had nothing but great experiences.
He really went above and beyond during the most recent transaction & saved my real estate deal over the Christmas holidays!
Extremely grateful for John and his team .. thank you.
John Poletes and his staff were very helpful to us this year as they handled both a property purchase and sale this year. When we purchased, the mortgage money was delayed by the lenders. It was only through the hard work and dedication of the firm that the deal to concluded on the closing date and we were able to obtain the keys late that day.
The lawyer on the vendor’s side made errors in regards to the amount of property taxes paid and once again the firm came through and assisted us in recovering the funds owed to us.
The fees were very reasonable. I would not hesitate to recommend John Poletes to others.
Last week I took Legal issues in Real Estate, a mandatory course offered by the Real Estate Institute of Canada as the last step in my FRI designation. The faculty instructor was John Poletes.
It is important that the student share their learning experience with the REIC which help improve the education it is providing to students like me. My passion is real estate and the success of fellow realtors and clients is my priority.
I put great efforts in learning from teacher like John Poletes, FRI so that I can do a better job in promoting professional integrity, honest & competent real estate services to my clients and customers. It is also important for me to recognize those instructors who teach us and appreciate their contribution to our profession.
I am extremely impressed with the teaching style of Mr. John Poletes, who stimulated real conversation with students to teach REIC 2800 Legal Issues in Real Estate. What struck me the most was him sharing his life long experiences in real estate and connecting with the subjects being discussed in REIC 2800. He was very polite, smiling and engaged the class in a very effective manner. It made my learning experience a pleasant surprised. It is a very effective method of teaching when a teacher becomes a part of the class and helps stimulate intelligent conversation among all participants. We participated openly and expressed opinions (right or wrong), and it was an amazing environment for learning. It was superbly done by Mr. John Poletes.
Mr. Poletes made his students comfortable in the class, made his teaching method effective, and helped student understand the complex legal issues in real estate easily to prepare the students to avoid pit falls in the future.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge & experience with all of us.
Last October I attended a Legal Issues in Real Estate course offered by the Real Estate Institute of Canada. John Poletes was our instructor. This is the last course required for my FRI designation. I have been working on this for some time.
I also just wanted to let you know that this was one of the best courses I have taken since I started my RE career. The venue and class was all about RE and issues dealt in our daily world. I will certainly be looking to take more courses like this in the coming months.
Also I have realized real value in these courses and am anxious to get my designation.
Thank you again!
I’ve been a Real Estate Representative for many years. I first met John Poletes when he came into our office to do a presentation on a legal topic related to the industry. I make a conscientious effort to go to all presentations on the various legal matters John discusses, as he is so well informed. I have referred clients to him, who also have been most impressed. I highly recommend him.
