Saman Habibi was an incredible guide throughout my year-long search for the perfect home. His patience, knowledge, and genuine dedication stood out as we viewed countless properties and navigated an ever-changing market. He provided endless advice, always tailored to my needs, and never made me feel rushed or pressured. Saman’s professionalism and unwavering support made a complex journey feel manageable, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy agent who truly puts their clients first.

Saman was very through throughout the process and went to great lengths to introduce us to the proper contractors to get inspections, etc., completed. We will certainly use Saman as our real estate agent on our future transactions.

If you’re looking for a client centric and honest real estate agent who truly understands the market, Saman Habibi is the agent for you.We were beyond thrilled with our experience working with Saman Habibi of the Durham Region Group (DR Group). Saman is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also exceptionally trustworthy and honest. He took the time to understand our needs, making us feel completely confident throughout the entire process of finding the perfect home in the Durham Region housing market. In working with us, Saman endured a very lengthy home finding/buying journey as we looked to find our forever home in a very specific location at a very specific price range that quite honestly post pandemic, no longer existed. At the end, Saman was able to find us that forever home in our very specific location and well within our budget. His level of understanding, patience and commitment to us throughout this time was unwavering and we could not be happier.In buying a home with Saman as our agent, he was fully committed to ensuring that every step was seamless, with his client-centric approach making us feel like his top priority. His background as a Chartered Accountant (CA) and Certified Public Accountant (CPA), arms him with a very strong analytical and financial skillset that helped us determine the right market value for our buy making the whole process more simple and less stressful.When it came to selling our house, Saman’s deep understanding of real estate trends got us the best results possible. He not only sold our home above asking price (+10%) but did so in a remarkably short timeframe (1 day) at a time when home sales in the Durham Region area were declining YOY and at an annual low. His analytical and strategic approach coupled with a strong pulse on the market was paramount in delivering these results.His honest and positive demeanor, attention to detail and genuine fortitude in working hard to get us the home we wanted within budget is what I believe sets him apart from other agents. Simply put, everyone in the transaction likes working with Saman. You feel good being represented by an agent who conducts business the way Saman does.If you're a first time buyer who needs guidance or an experienced buyer/seller looking for a trustworthy, honest, and 100% client-focused real estate agent in Durham Region, we highly recommend Saman Habibi of the DR Group. You'd be hard pressed to find a better agent.-S.Goddard

From day one Saman was tremendously helpful. We didn't want to remain in our home while it was getting ready to be sold and after the For Sale sign went up. He found us a number of places to consider and took us to view them. He made useful suggestions regarding preparing the house and recommended workmen to do the jobs at reasonable cost. Regarding his personality, he was always very courteous, professional, accommodating to our time and tastes and cheerful. All in all, Saman is a hardworking, quiet-spoken man and certainly got the job done to our complete satisfaction. I would recommend him to anyone.

Saman is a phenomenal agent and super easy to work with. What we find most valuable is he's investor-friendly and has that valuable pair of eyes to identify both the advantages and issues with the properties we saw. Over our 'longer than expected' home shopping journey, he took us to see many properties and was always very patient to explain things to us---very new home buyers who also are interested in having investment properties. He knows Durham Region like the back of his hands and is always able to tell us which neighorhoods are more desirable and which might not be quite as much, as he's a long-time Durham resident himself. So don't hesitate to work with Saman! He's the guy who will make your home shopping and selling a breeze! Cannot wait to have more work done with him in the future!

Selling and buying a property can be an intimidating process, but working with Saman made it a breeze. I was looking for someone I could trust, someone who knows the market inside out, and Saman exceeded my expectations. He is a true expert in his field, with a proven track record of success.Throughout the sale of my property, Saman went above and beyond to ensure that everything was taken care of. Even though I was 9 months pregnant at the time, he was patient and forward-thinking, always considering my unique circumstances. His advice was sound and he took care of every detail, leaving me with peace of mind.I cannot recommend Saman highly enough. If you're looking for a real estate professional who will go the extra mile for you, look no further. I look forward to working with Saman in the future.

I have personally known Saman for nearly twenty years and have worked with him professionally since 2021. I can say with confidence that Saman genuinely cares about his clients, and utilizes his expertise as both a realtor and chartered accountant as a means of providing excellent service time and time again.

Saman is one of a kind. Super knowledgeable, always came prepared to showings and was able to answer any questions we had. We tasked him with purchasing our home and selling our condo and he executed flawlessly. Top dollar for a condo in this market is unheard of all while securing our house way under budget. You can stop your search for a realtor here..he's worth it..and I don't say that too often.

Saman came highly recommended to us and we could not have been in better hands! He is professional and extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market. In our initial meeting for selling our home, he was very prepared and proposed different marketing strategies that proved to be very successful. Our concerns and questions about listing and timing were addressed promptly. Saman took the time understand our goals and expectations and built an effective strategy which made the entire process seamless. He is a very strong communicator and it is reflected in his negotiating skills.We highly recommend Saman. It was a genuine pleasure working with him!

I attended one of Saman's First Time Home Buyers Seminar. I thought Saman did an excellent Job explaining the new mortgage stress test rules, steps to take when purchasing your first house & options people have to enter into the housing market. Saman understands the Durham market & brings a different approach being a Charter Accountant. I will be using Saman as my agent for my next purchase.

I've been working with Riyad to purchase my first home and honestly, it's been such a great experience. He is patient, kind, knowledgeable and goes the extra mile to ensure that you are informed of your decisions and know all possible options.
