As first time home buyers, the entire process can be very overwhelming. Steve was helpful, honest, knowledgeable, and encouraging through each step. He was always available via text, call, or in person for questions and advice when needed. We sincerely appreciated Steve advocating for us and allowing us to find the perfect home to start our family in. In very busy times for us, Steve was also able to adjust as needed to complete all of the formalities and get us into the house as soon as possible. We loved working with Steve!
As a first time homebuyer, I could not have asked for a better agent. Stephen was patient, knowledgeable and made sure I understood each step of the process. He was always available to answer questions and to discuss the pros & cons of the different homes we saw. I would highly recommend him to my family & friends.
With an out of state and pretty complex move Steve did a great job. He communicated well, followed up when he said he would, and was extremely helpful with his knowledge and real estate. We had an excellent experience with Steve and would recommend him to anyone looking in the Toledo area.
I was a first time homebuyer and Steve and Karen walked me through the process, step by step. Often, they were answering my questions or providing me with information before I could ask! They were always on top of new listings that might fit my interests and went above and beyond to make time for me.
Stephen's knowledge of the Northwest OH market was very apparent by my wife and I early. We knew we were in good hands as we decided to move quickly on a forever home that we were not local to see. Stephen was easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable working through this process remotely. He met our family members at open houses, and scheduled walk throughs for us on holiday weekends because it was the only time we'd be in the area. I'd recommend Stephen to anyone buying a home in the area, you will not be disappointed!
When Zach and I decided to sell our house, we immediately reached out to Karen and Steven Toon as we knew and trusted them. Having known the Toons, I felt certain that we would receive honest, forthcoming feedback regarding price, necessary repairs, and worthwhile cosmetic changes. I think many realtors would suggest that we invest as much as possible into a quick sale. However, with the Toons, we had a candid discussion regarding the cost-benefit for added changes. In addition to discussing these concerns, Steven and Karen paid specific attention to the history and character of our Victorian home, taking notes on all aspects of the original blueprints and functions of each room, as well as noting specific pieces that were to remain within the home. Upon showing the house, Karen had beautifully created signs placed throughout the house highlighting these details and historic pieces. Steven had arranged for professional satellite photos, interior shots, and a virtual tour, all of which was posted online. Additionally, he had gorgeous brochures with photos and information available for showings. While it did not seem necessary for us to have a virtual tour, on Steven's end, he wanted to attract every potential buyer, including those out-of-state. This did in fact bring an additional offer to the table. Even more surprising to us, at every stage of our sale, Karen offered to help pack, declutter, and rearrange furniture! This was not simply because I knew her; rather, she offers this service to all clients because she is committed to creating a positive and successful sales experience. For our convenience, the Toons scheduled two, all-day showings, which generated multiple offers. Within this timeframe, our family was able to "step-out", go to a hotel, and have Karen and Steven set up and lock up for the scheduled showings. It was a simple process, and we appreciate all the help we received from the Toons.
Stephen was awesome to work with and has a great sense of humor. He made the selling of our home and the purchasing of our new home seamless. He was extremely helpful, open and transparent through the whole process. He cared and understood our wants and needs from the beginning and always had our best interest in mind. His experience, availability and proactiveness are something we appreciated and so will you.
My wife and I are incredibly thankful to have been able to work with Stephen. Since my family and I have lived in Columbus, OH, for most of our lives, it was great to work with someone who has extensive knowledge of the market in Northwest OH, great communication and always very professional. You can tell that he cares about his clients and that he listens to your wants and needs. He was patient, honest, and helpful throughout this entire process and helped us find a beautiful home. It was awesome working with Stephen Toon!
Stephen was wonderful to work with and made the process very easy for my family. The house was sold almost immediately above asking price. We would highly recommend and would definitely use again
I didn't have to worry one bit about the sale of my house, he guided me and made sure everything went smoothly.
Stephen & Karen are an amazing team! I have never encountered a team of realtors who dedicated so much time to helping us prepare our home to put on the market. They connected us with reliable, competent contractors on tight timelines, provided thoughtful advice and even staged the home for us at no additional cost. They are detail-oriented, hardworking, honest and skilled at making every step of the selling process seamless for homeowners.
