We Service All Segments of the Market
We have clients who are first time home-buyers and others who are leaving a home they have been in for 50+ years. We have helped individuals upgrade within their condo building, families move to Toronto from halfway across the world, and investors build their real estate portfolios. Whatever our clients’ reason for buying and selling is, we provide the facts and market analysis to help make this major life transition as informed as possible.

Outstanding Personal Service
Our elevated approach to service is based on true dedication and responsiveness. Outstanding client care is the foundation of our success. We always act in our clients’ best interests. Our integrity has led to exceptional client experience and repeat business. Many of our relationships go back decades.
Proven Strategies + Innovation
Traditional advertising methods are still effective, but we are also deeply engaged in the fast-changing world of digital marketing. We believe innovation, creativity and open-mindedness are essential to achieving success in the world of real estate today.
Superior Pricing + Negotiating Skills
An experienced Toronto realtor is critical to understanding the nuances of pricing strategies for the different areas of the city. We don’t “buy listings” by inflating value and giving clients false hope of what their home is worth. We outline scenarios based on factual analysis. And purchasing in today’s heated real estate market requires a realtor with vast experience in negotiation. We are constantly brokering deals and are finely attuned to trends, pressures, and opportunities.

We are leaders in our field. Our focus on the market, our attention to detail and our connection to our clients have delivered consistent benchmark results. Our reputation for outstanding performance is well established, however, our motivations for success are rooted in maximizing value and client satisfaction.
We always act in our clients best interests, critically assessing the market and opportunity to give the best advice possible. We look at properties through multiple lenses.

And of course the practical and the functional must be integrated to make a home truly beautiful.
Personal client care is the foundation of our success. We will treat you with honesty, respect and particular attention. Through a combination of analysis and experience we will work with you to understand your goals and aspirations to achieve remarkable results. We look beyond price to find value.

Founded in Toronto in 1990, Chestnut Park Real Estate has grown to a team of over 500 agents providing the finest real estate service in prime urban and recreational markets across Ontario. Chestnut Park Real Estate opened its first office in Toronto in 1990, with only five real estate agents on the roster. In 1994, the firm established a presence in Muskoka with our Port Carling office. In the ten years that followed, the sales team grew and by 2008 Chestnut Park opened offices in two other major recreational markets: Collingwood and Prince Edward County.
In 2011 Chestnut Park’s affiliation with Christie's International Real Estate was formed, elevating the Chestnut Park brand further to the forefront of the Ontario luxury market.
With Christie's elite global presence and footprint, Chestnut Park properties are marketed to discerning buyers through a vast sales network that reaches around the world. Our exclusive connection to this long established luxury brand gives Molloy + Van Wert a crucial competitive edge in today's high-end marketplace.
