About Jeffrey Luciano

It’s a pleasure to meet you! I’m Jeff, a full-time real estate agent, living in Toronto and working in the greater Toronto area. In addition to my professional designations I have a BA in Sociology from McMaster University and an MBA from the University of Toronto. My undergrad degree in Sociology has influenced how I work with my clients, and I strive to make sure that during every step of the process my clients feel comfortable and in control. Many of my clients tell me they chose to work with me because they immediately felt they could trust me.
