Buying our first home as newcomers, was a major milestone, and choosing Zown was the best decision we made. After researching various realtors, we discovered Zown on Facebook. Vinura clearly explained how their innovative model works, which gave us confidence in the process. We were then connected with Sunil and Ensi, who truly went above and beyond to make our home-buying journey seamless and stress-free. Zown’s integrated approach, offering everything from legal support to mortgage services through their trusted partners, made the entire experience worry-free. Ensi, in particular, was outstanding. She was always available to answer our questions and continued to provide support even after our purchase was finalized. Thanks to their dedication, we found our dream home quickly and within our budget. The cashback we received covered nearly all of our closing costs which made a big difference. We have now been settled in our new home for 10 days, and we could not be happier. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their professionalism, transparency, and customer-first approach truly set them apart.

I had the pleasure of attending one of their events, and the CEO, Rishard, was one of the kindest, most caring, and down-to-earth people I have ever met! It’s no wonder he was able to build such a fantastic company that genuinely helps people buy homes.

I saw lot of ads about Zown and their down-payment assistance. I read about it a bit, even before we decided to purchase property. When we decided to buy, I did some research, about similar services with cashback and was still a bit skeptical using them, considering that even working with a realtor we still would get a share from their commission in most cases. I left applications of interest to a few and had some calls. Call with Zown was scheduled by Rishard, their CEO. He explained very well how it will go, how they work, their model and what do we get with them. First, the cashback goes upfront, so this is why it can be used as part of down-payment. Of course 1% will not be enough, its great to cover other expenses like land transfer tax, or legal fees, government fees, fees for a fee 😁. I also asked a blunt question: why I should go with Zown and not with other similar service or agency/agent? And Rishard just showed the number of deals made by Zown compared to others. On the MLS. Not on some marketing materials. And overall, I liked their approach. So we started with Zown. The process was quick and smooth. We had few calls with account manager, described her our budget, our needs and wishes. We were presented some options to look at and also we searched ourselves (as we wanted to look at all options that fit our filters and were very active finding them, so at this point we were more active than them 😄) and were sending and discussing everything in chat or on quick calls. We had showings of every unit we wanted, booked by Zown same day within couple hours (they have contracted agents in different communities who can show almost instantly). At some days we viewed 6 units! Very tiresome, but we wanted to find something that fits well, and we found. We also chose to get their partnered mortgage company. And as they are partnered, they talk to each other. Same with legal. Some communications were done directly, without us working as proxy. Quite smooth and very appreciated as the first mortgage experience in Canada. Now, we are waiting for the deal closure date, excited and glad that all is happening and that fast. Let's see how it goes.till very end, but for now, I'm quite satisfied customer.

I bought my first home through Zown and I had nothing but a completely positive and smooth experience. The customer service I received was amazing. You are doing it right Zown! Keep up the great work!

As a first-time homebuyer, we were overwhelmed by the prices and upfront costs involved in getting into the market especially in Ontario. That’s when I came across Zown, and I’m so glad I did. Their unique model of offering part of their commission as upfront, non-repayable cash for a down payment was a good confidence boost to take the leap into buying a home. The process was smooth, and I felt supported every step of the way, from mortgage pre-approval to viewing homes to closing. My agent was professional, responsive, and never pushy. All the 3rd parties (inspector, lawyer and etc) he recommended were top notch as well. What sets Zown apart is not just the money they offer, but how they’ve redesigned the real estate game to be more approachable for regular people. I’ve already recommended them to a few friends and will continue to do so.

I worked with Zown to purchase my first home! I was so blown away by their support that I had to travel down to Toronto to meet the team. Not only are they masters of their craft, they are also great people. You'll be in good hands!

Wonderful team at Zown, making home buying process easy and affordable for first time home buyers.

Zown is fantastic! Used them for our first home purchase, and they were literally the only reason why we were able to access the market and find our new home. Would recommend to ANYONE! Thanks, Zown!

Hopefully to move Canada soon and get my house keys with only Zown!🏠

I came across The Zown just as I started my home search in Toronto, and I’m really glad I followed up. I’d heard of them before but never looked into how their cashback offer worked. Honestly, I thought I would end up having to pay it back somehow but nope, it’s just straight-up cashback on closing. They were super transparent and took the time to explain everything clearly. The whole process felt smooth, and I’m now in the final steps of closing on my new place. Definitely recommend them if you're buying in the GTA!
