Our experience with Mardi has been exceptional. She took the time and care to make sure that we were always at the centre of our home-selling/purchasing experience. She treated us like family throughout the entire process. Her exemplary communication skills, honesty, professionalism and vast experience are truly unmatched in the Ottawa market. Mardi is undoubtedly a Five Start Real Estate Agent.   

It is our pleasure to provide a testimonial regarding our real estate agent Mardi Friesz. We met Mardi at an open house and were immediately impressed by her professional and friendly manner. Mardi subsequently assisted us in our search for a new home in Ottawa. We were very appreciative of her years of experience and extensive knowledge of the area. Mardi was very receptive of our wish list and made us aware of new listings that were appropriate for us. Mardi took a personal interest in us and made us feel very welcome to the area. Mardi was generous with her time and was always happy to arrange a showing at a time that was convenient for us. We are very happy with our new home and are very grateful for all of Mardi’s professional help. Mardi was a real pleasure to work with.

Mardi Friesz recently managed the marketing and sale of our property in Manotick. I am writing this letter of recommendation to express my complete satisfaction with Mardi as our realtor. Throughout the entire process Mardi was extremely pleasant, professional, conscientious, and motivated. I felt as though I was her only client. Initially we were uncertain of the asking price, but Mardi provided multiple sources to verify that our pricing was accurate and met our goal of selling the house with our time frame. Mardi guided us through the staging process, held several open houses, and even shoveled the sidewalks when the plow truck didn’t show. That’s commitment! To reiterate, we are nothing but pleased with Mardi and her expertise and we are happy to recommend her to anyone.

Mardi Friesz has been my realtor for over 12 years. She has sold two homes for me and I have bought two homes from her. I would not hesitate to recommend her as your real estate agent. No one will work harder to sell your home. She is extremely organized and efficient and always delivers on what she promises.
She knows the market very well and for Mardi, it is not about marking the sale but about making her client happy. I would highly recommend her as a real estate agent and I would definitely work with her again.

Please feel free to pass this on! I have no problem singing Mardi’s praises. In January of 2011, on a whim, my husband I went to see a house. Mardi was the selling agent and welcomed us into the home more than once in the following weeks. Once we decided to make an offer, we asked Mardi to be our agent to facilitate the process. She was wonderful and worked so hard on the negotiations. Many days we saw her twice; once at 7 am and again at 7 pm. We trusted her completely to get the best price. With the negotiations finally over and our offer accepted, we asked Mardi to sell our present house. Within days, she had us organized. The sign was up, the house was staged and the photos taken. Mardi advised us on the price to ask for the house and she knew exactly what she was talking about. Our hold sold in ONE day! We never had to have an Open House. A great weight was listed from our shoulders. Mardi handled all the paperwork, had our water and septic system tested. She really made it easy. She was always professional and pleasant. It has been one year since we moved into our new house and when I tell people who our Realtor was, it is not uncommon for someone to tell me that they have met Mardi and what a lovely person she is. She is a great part of our community here in Manotick. But despite my best efforts she would not gossip! That would be my only complaint.

We were first time home buyers in the summer of 2018. Mardi was referred to us. I am a natural cynic and don’t really have much faith that people who help other people, REALLY help them, especially if they have something to gain from the helping process. Well let me tell you…Mardi has restored a lot of my faith in people. She met with us, took the time to explain how this all goes and talked about what we could expect. It took months for us to find a house because of our own criteria. Through the entire process, she worked tirelessly for us. We went through two bidding processes and she was on it, minute by minute. We had a unique situation during our final bidding where it was a real nail biter. She was emailing us at 3 a.m.!  She got us our amazing house!  We love it with all of our hearts, and we had the warmest, most hard working, ethical person on our side. We cannot say enough, how much of a pleasure it was to even just meet Mardi and spend time with her. Once the close happened and we were sitting in the house looking at all our boxes to unpack, we reminisced about how we always felt like we must have driven her nuts with all of our questions and insecurities and Mardi always insisted that was nonsense. She knows the business, and she knows the law. We trusted her implicitly and the home buying experience was amazing because of her with us. If you are looking to buy or sell, she is your lady. Trust us.

I wish to advance the following letter in support of Ms. Mardi Friesz. My wife and I have been clients of hers since October, 2011 and have been extremely pleased with all of her professional work. We were impressed with all of Mardi’s knowledge and skills, which include the following:

She is highly knowledgeable about the Ottawa Real Estate Market. My family’s needs are somewhat demanding, in that I require a house for 6 people. Mardi patiently took us to multiple houses in the area we desired. She also demonstrated a strong commitment to see that we would get the “right house”, rather than ever rush us into a situation that might not be ideal.
As a professional, she is impeccable. She is always punctual, honest, and an effective communicator.
It was also a “bonus” for us that she is so pleasant and easy to deal with. In addition to Mardi helping us find the right house, she also showed great experience and effectiveness in helping us sell our current home quickly. From listing to sale was only six weeks, and we were really pleased with all the terms of the sale.

I hope the above remarks show our high degree of respect and admiration for Mardi’s skill, integrity and experience. We would recommend her without reservation to anyone. If I can provide any other information to clarify the above, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

We have known Mardi for almost twenty years. She first impressed us with her outstanding demeanor at an open house we attended in the early 1990’s. At this introduction, we decided that Mardi would unquestionably be the real estate professional we would use when purchasing our first home. There was a professionalism about her that was rivalled by no one. Mardi has very successfully helped us purchase two homes and sell two homes. All four processes were absolutely seamless. In all instances, we knew Mardi was diligently working for us. We never questioned her advice or decisions. Mardi was on our team, and she facilitated the real estate process to best suit our needs and wants. We could not have asked for more. We trusted Mardi because she understood us, our priorities and our real estate goals. Mardi took the time to get to know us! She understood that our home was our biggest asset and she took this very seriously. Mardi knows the real estate market and more importantly she knows how to formulate a trusting relationship. We cannot think of one issue where we felt uncomfortable in the four major transactions that Mardi facilitated for us. Mardi is always consistent. Without the slightest hesitation, we strongly recommend Mardi as a real estate agent whether you are buying or selling a home. Mardi is the best of the best in her professional and we feel honoured to call her our friend.

We would like to take this opportunity to extend our gratitude and appreciation for everything that you have done for us.  Not only did you help us sell our property, you helped us find a new home!  It was not an easy decision for us to put our property up for sale and your professionalism and extended knowledge of the market helped guide us with ease.  You had a calming effect when tensions were high and were able to find solutions efficiently. 

We would be more than happy to recommend you to anyone in the market for a real estate agent.  This is the second home that you have sold for us within a short timeframe.  You are results oriented, for that we are grateful. Once again, thank you for everything that you have done for us and wish you all of the success with what the future holds.  We are extremely grateful to have found an Agent with such passion and dedication to her clients.
