Hello Gary,Just to inform you that I have done 2 deals recently through ICI! It is, no doubt, the best online site in Canada for real estate – especially commercial. I’ve already sold:
“Bargain Shop” – in an extremely remote and small Northern Ontario area through ICI – another realtor saw my posting and come up with her client’s offer that has now been accepted.
Retirement Home in Niagara Falls – I contacted the owner who posted his ad on ICI – but was not able to sell on its own – the buyer saw it through my web-site and the deal has gone through – that was an example of using ICI and redirecting info through another marketing source.
I also got in touch with numerous investors and realtors through your website and most likely there will be more deals as a direct, or indirect, result of it.
Best Regards,
Leo Hara

Tony Sirozzotti, Sales Representative, HomeLife/Durham Real Estate Corp., Brokerage placed an 11 plex apartment on ICIWorld in July. Among the calls he received was from another real estate salesperson from Royal LePage. They sold it in Sept. and it closed in November.

Erwin Stone, Broker, Royal LePage Heartland Realty, reports several deals such as 5 plexes and other residential income producing properties.

Sam Schariefy, Abr., Sres., Re/Max Realtron Realty Inc., Brokerage. Someone saw an ad on ICIWorld on one of Sams exclusive listings. Sam developed a business relationship with them and said that property was not the right property for you. We have other listings and told him about another one. He also invited him to come into office and had a two hour meeting. Sam suggested a property. Sam knew about a person who was thinking about selling. He called him and ended up doing a deal $1,100,000. $30,000 commission and a job well done for both parties. They were both very happy.
Sam also has buyers from overseas looking to buy a business and home, and more buyers and sellers.

Gurcharan Singh, Broker, Homelife/Miracle Realty Ltd., Brokerage, had a buyer looking for a gas station. He saw one on ICIWorld that was placed by another member and they sold it. Gurcharan has also sold farmland and makes connections regularly to do real estate business. Here is his mobile website. The advantage of Gurcharan’s website is that the public can search three major world networks of listings not just real estate board listings but also exclusive listings not on real estate boards.

Brokerage reports selling a property in Wasaga Beach $300,000. The buyer saw it on ICIWorld, called his own agent who then approached Sam and sold it with Sam. He also sold other properties such as detached homes in the GTA, store plus apartment. He says he gets calls on a regular basis and likes the networking. He also leased an apartment for $2,900 per month in North York.

Hugh Nichols, Broker, Re/Max North Country Realty Inc. Brokerage has sold two buildings and leased out some retail space. One was a main street building commercial with two apartments as an investment $339,000 and the other was a commercial building with nine residential units and two commercial units also in Gravenhurst. They were both placed on ICIWorld. Hugh received about four calls and two of them purchased. The leased unit 3,200 sq. ft. was for a restaurant and he received one call and they leased it for five years. Whenever Hugh receives calls they tend to be well qualified as prospects. The Muskoka area that Hugh works is a tourist and a growing senior community. Feel free to contact him anytime.

John Gallagher, Associate Broker, Blair Blanchard Stapleton Limited. A large hotel trust had tried numerous methods to sell one of their landmark Toronto hotels without any success for over TWO years. Using our proprietary marketing methods which included Gary’s ICIWorld we were able to get the property under contract within 85 days. Not bad for a $21,500,000 property that was a fixer upper!
