Sales Representative, Real Estate Homeward, Brokerage
What I offer my clients is simple- Expert Service, Hard Work, Client Care and Exceptional Results!
Buying or selling a home is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. My goal as a real estate agent is to make that experience as stress-free and as rewarding as it can be, and to help my clients make the decisions that are right for them.
I have come to real estate through my passion for architecture and my work in the world of interior design. I’m obsessed with houses. As a writer, I have contributed to publications such as House and Home and Chatelaine. As a designer, I have intimate knowledge of how space works and how it can be presented to its best advantage. For buyers, this means that I can often see potential that others might overlook. For sellers, it means marketing their property in a way that will attract the most buyers and the highest return. I personally stage all my listings, at no extra cost to my clients.
I have lived and worked in Riverdale for over twenty years, where I have raised three kids. I have an intimate knowledge of the city. Toronto offers an incredible variety of neighbourhoods, all of which have their own special character. One of the things I love most about my job is discovering a new corner of the city: a lovely pocket of streets, a great school, the perfect restaurant. But more importantly, what I love if finding the perfect property for you— the first house, the right condo, the best reno project, the right investment.
Buying or selling a home in today’s market involves a number of different services, including modern, online, social marketing that connects with today’s buyers. My connections to the world of the arts in Toronto means that my listings are often showcased in print media as well, giving them incredible exposure. This is also why I have chosen Real Estate Homeward, a brokerage that supports me and my clients with the best professionalism the industry has to offer.
Need a home inspector, a lawyer, a mortgage broker, a mover? I have worked with them all, and will only refer you to independent businesses that have earned my trust.
I’m passionate about real-estate. It would be my honour to put that energy to work for you.

Erika is the best! She surpassed our expectations. We were thrilled with the results. Our house sold 'over-asking' in a neighbourhood where that almost never happens, and in less than the average amount of time it usually takes. In fact, our house sold while others lingered on the market with no action. This is entirely because Erika came up with a clever marketing strategy, pursued all avenues for getting the house attention, and made herself 100% available and committed. She didn't just talk the talk, she made it all happen. I've dealt with a number of agents over the years through different house purchases, and I can honestly say that no one out there is as good. She's honest and straight-forward, practical, creative and energetic. I would never consider using anyone else.

Dear Erika,
We are so content, comfortable and at peace in our new home. Even with boxes piled high, it feels like home, like our place. We are so grateful for all your patient dedication between the rentals and the sales and the purchase and the deliberations!
With gratitude,

When the time came to select a realtor to manage the sale of our parents home in Toronto, I suggested to my siblings that we engage Erika De Vasconcelos. "Why" they asked, not knowing her from any other realtor. Given that my siblings and I live outside of Toronto, we needed to select a realtor that we could trust to manage the process from beginning to end, who would be able to update us and engage us in the necessary steps as efficiently and accurately as possible and someone who would best represent the house our parents had called home for fifty years and understand the importance of the transaction to our family...

... Erika exceeded all expectations. Her professionalism and sincerity immediately prompted a level of trust and comfort that was never in doubt. Talk about handing over the keys and not thinking twice! With Erika's management of the process, we realized a sale above and beyond the list price with the best possible conditions and outcome for our parents.

This is the easiest testimonial I have had to write.
Best advice - listen to your agent. Erika was a pillar of strength; she gave me good, sound advice from the very beginning. Erika literally took all the stress out of selling although I did have a slight moment on the day of listing. Her vision of how the house should show was impeccable. Her negotiating skills equally skillful and because of this I walked away with far more than I could have imagined. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Erika.

Hello Erika,
We are just in the process of moving in and I was reminded how easy this process was and wanted to express my great fullness!

Erika de Vasconcelos is a superlative real estate agent. She's informed, upbeat, professional, intuitive, and a bonus - she's got training in interior design. At every stage of the process, we knew we were in good hands working alongside her. Erika helped us make our buying and selling decisions with complete confidence, even when things had to move very fast. She did a gorgeous job staging our home, and even helped us see the design possibilities in the house we purchased. She exceeded our high expectations, and we recommend her warmly to anyone seeking real estate help.

Past Client
We have bought and sold eight properties over the past 40 years, so we've dealt with many realtors. Erika has a superior knowledge of the business, is easy-- and fun!-- to be with, never missed a property that might have interested us, and always gave us sound advice. We will recommend her highly to all our friends.
George Galt and Alyse Frampton
Past Client
One of Erika's great strengths, aside from her knowledge of the city and her indefatigable energy and good taste, was her eye for the quality and depth of the renovation work done on the properties we looked at. She was also very good at understanding exactly what we were looking for--and needed, and she found it for us!
