In my almost a decade as a Real Estate Broker, I can say that Me. Kostakos is one of the most professional and responsive notaries in the West Island. Effie is not only the 'go-to' notary for our clients, but my personal notary for my Real Estate transactions and other notarial services. 'Honest', 'knowledgeable' and 'patient' are the most common comments I receive from clients about Effie! She has my endorsement, 100%.

I recently hired Mrs Kostakos's services as a notary to close the deal on a property that I just purchased and I was very satisfied with the services offered. She's fluent in both English and French, very professional and took the time to explain thoroughly the transaction and answered all my questions patiently. I would definitely recommend her or hire her again!

Effie made the transaction super smooth and took the time to explain all the small details to us. We recommend her to everyone we know.

Effie isn’t only someone I can confidently refer to my clients as a realtor, she is the notary I use for my personal transactions. She is knowledgeable, efficient, always answers my questions promptly, and is simply a pleasure to work with. And she is able to help her clients in English, French, Spanish and Greek to top it all off. Absolutely recommend.

I want to share my experience with Me. Effie Kostakos. She helped me go through all legal papers and stuff after my mother's funeral. I felt like she was family and from then I only use her firm services. Thank you for everything ????????????

Me Effie Kostakos definitely knows her stuff and takes the time to explain the unknown when it comes to her expertise. Her patience and empathy are definitely qualities that make the experience that much better. I have been using her services for over 10 years and referred her many times over. Only got great feedback. Not only are her prices competitive, her person and service quality definitely sets the bar high. And she also supports local community organizations. FYI she is fluent in French, English, Spanish and Greek!

Effie is not only professional and experienced, but adds a personal touch to the transaction. She puts all parties at ease and makes sure everyone knows exactly what they're signing. I have referred her to a few of my friends, and they are also thrilled with her service!

I recently had the occasion to work with Effie during the sale of my mother’s home. I really appreciated the attention to detail that was taken to ensure my mother was completely comfortable during what was a massive transaction for her. For that I am very grateful and absolutely recommend her highly

Richad Abuani

Effie was very knowledgeful when assisting me with my first home purchase, so knowledgeful that without hesitation we went with her for our second purchase. Not only was she efficient given the limited timeline but also did her due diligence and found things we had missed in the negotiations prior to final signing. Definitely would recommend her for anyone looking for a notary looking to take care of her customers. Will reach out to her the next time I am in need of a notary.

poor knowledge , poor communicator and lacks respect.... her lack of knowledge does not help when it comes closing a transaction . she caused so much stress that was absolutely unnecessary. did not even apologize for her so many mistakes .... Had a trouble experience and never ever again

Mark Balcar

Over the years, I've completed over 100 transactions with Effie. I'm a local mortgage broker. Effie is awesome with my clients and I never worry when she handles a refinance or a purchase. She's very positive, proactive and very transparent. My mortgages are usually complex and difficult. Effie is instrumental. Mortgage financing can be complex and not always easy. Having a notary like Effie support my clients is paramount. I cannoy say enough good things about her. I would recommend her anytime and any day. Period.

Luka Grubac

I can only say that I was blessed to have Mrs. Kostakos on my side. Five stars for professionalism! She had protected my interests above everything and even though it was a last minute complicated file I always had the impression that Mrs. Kostakos treated my file as if it was her own. I would strongly recommend her services to my friends and my clients.

Maître Effie Kostakos has been an amazing notary for my family. She is fluent in several languages (English, French, Greek, Spanish) and was able to serve my mother comfortably in Spanish, her birth language. Effie was also extremely professional, caring and sensitive when revising my parents’ will after their divorce. Recently, Effie processed the purchase deed for my condo and was quick, efficient, and very accommodating, especially given the restrictions during the pandemic. Highly recommend!!
