How do I find a verified real estate agent in Ontario?
Updated November 6, 2026
Every agent you can contact on LIQWD holds an active licence that was matched to the regulator's public record, RECO in Ontario, before their page went live. The directory lists them with their brokerage, the areas they work and the new homes they know, and the message you send goes to that agent alone.
You can also check any agent yourself on RECO's public register, which is free.
What to look at on an agent page
The brokerage and title, which the rules require on every page. The areas they name. The projects they keep current, which tells you where they actually work. Reviews where clients have left them. Whether they answer the same day, which you learn by writing.
If you are not sure who to ask
Tell LIQWD what you are after and up to three verified agents in your city are shown the request. The first to reach you is the one who wanted to.
