The fact is, there isn't much more to the average agent than the agent themselves. Most agents operate a one-person show - and they're probably breaking their backs trying to do a good job for their clients. Most agents couldn't really work any harder than they're already working.
We know, because we used to do it this way.
But we don't anymore because we found that our client's suffered from our good intentions. The fact is, you may be sympathetic to the fact that your agent is working as hard as humanly possible, but if the quality and profitability of your home sale suffers as a result of them trying to do everything themselves . . . well,
. . .you have a right to feel cheated.
The simple explanation is that we built a team of professionals to help us be in 10 places at once, and therefore greatly enhance the quality of service we can deliver to our clients. This is basically how other professionals like your banker or lawyer operate. And on top of this, we've used cutting edge technology to dramatically improve the speed, efficiency and innovative capabilities of every part of the service we deliver.
We don't expect you to care about the fine-details of the inner-workings of our office. What you should care about is simply this. Because of the highly unique way we've structured our real estate office . . .
Our client's homes sell for more money in less time!
And because our Team sells a lot of homes, we have extensive homeselling experience that puts more money in our client's pockets.

Maria Ho didn’t set out to be a real estate agent; she set out to change lives. A Chinese immigrant who grew up across Brampton, Mississauga, and Montreal, Maria speaks English, French, and Cantonese, and has charted a global path through six countries, backpacking Europe, Asia, and Australia in her early 20s. Her MBA from McGill and a marketing career with global Fortune 500 companies trained her to read markets, position value, and communicate with precision — skills she now channels into helping families find their dream homes.
Maria’s journey into real estate began after international experiences in Tunisia and Dubai and a decade-plus in Mississauga’s evolving neighborhoods. She’s a real estate investor herself, having owned pre-construction condo, renovated fixer-uppers, rent-to-owns, and a portfolio of rentals with her partner across Ontario. That perspective informs every listing, pricing decision, and negotiation strategy she brings to her clients. In 2020, she founded Maria Homes Team to translate her passion for people into a purpose-driven business: enriching lives by helping families discover homes where they feel safe, supported, and able to grow and thrive.
Today, Maria leads a team of caring, service-driven professionals who share one mission: help families find their happiness, peace, and long-term wealth through real estate. With over 30 years of combined experience, the team has helped more than 400 families across the Greater Toronto Area and surrounding suburbs, closing over $250 million in transactions. They’re known for transparent communication, data-driven pricing, and a robust, step-by-step process that often results in listings selling 2–4% higher and up to twice as fast as the market average.
What sets Maria apart isn’t just the numbers—it’s the relationships. Clients describe her as warm, energetic, and trusted from the first conversation. She builds trust quickly, uses a comprehensive omnichannel approach (with a strong social media presence that shares market insights and success stories), and she and her team speak seven languages to serve a diverse client base: English, French, Spanish, Chinese, Urdu, Hindi, and Arabic. Maria’s philosophy is simple: real estate is a life-enhancing journey when you approach it with service, clarity, and heart.
Her work extends beyond transactions. The Maria Homes Team supports investors with portfolio guidance and property management, helping clients build long-term wealth while prioritizing health, balance, and family. Maria’s personal life—her 13-year journey as a single parent to her son Justin, and their now blended family of six with her partner—anchors her approach: resilience, empathy, and a commitment to helping others navigate life’s big transitions with confidence.
