Born and raised in the west end, Jordan Rasberry’s passion for Toronto life took shape at an early age. After launching his real estate career with one of Canada’s largest firms, Jordan co-founded Core Assets Real Estate (CARE) in 2012. Since then CARE has sold nearly $2 billion dollars in real estate and has grown into an elite, market-leading brokerage of over 30 professionals with, Jordan serving as the brokerage’s operations manager, event planner, and leading mentor and educator.
Just over a decade later, Jordan’s appreciation for sharp design, modern entrepreneurial concepts, and authentic connections would carve out his vision for a new team: Brake Real Estate, a breath of fresh air in Toronto’s conventional real estate landscape. Brake allows Jordan to focus on serving the west end community he loves with the same unconventionally-positive real estate services that built his brokerage. A lifelong enthusiast of West Toronto’s vibrant cultural profile and spirited resident of Brockton Triangle, Jordan has his finger on the pulse of city life. When housing trends shift, new businesses arrive, or neighbourhood landscapes evolve, Jordan is the first to know. He’s also a keen investor, managing various investment properties and tenants across Toronto.
Beyond real estate, Jordan enjoys spending time with his wife and two kids (Brake Real Estate’s namesake), hosting and entertaining guests at his uniquely-Toronto laneway home, and venturing up north for vacation getaways. He can also be found exploring the west end’s lush parks, enjoying and hosting community events, and shopping at local markets.
“My wife and I used Jordan Rasberry from Core Assets Real Estate to buy my home in South Etobicoke. We were in a situation where there were multiple offers and his detailed research allowed us to narrowly outbid the competition. The property is now worth much more than we paid for it and we couldn't be happier. He saw the potential in the neighbourhood and just a year after buying, we are seeing how right he was. Jordan was able to accurately estimate how much it would cost to do the improvements we wanted to do, and what rents we could get.”
- Andre Persaud“I bought an investment property through Jordan a few years back and to this day he has continued to keep me up to speed with the comparable sales in my neighbourhood. Jordan was extremely knowledgeable, diligent and easy to work with. He has done a great job in helping me to manage my investment and I look forward to expanding my portfolio in the near future. Thanks to Jordan and the Core Assets Team!”
- Mark Manias“Simply exquisite! My husband and I have had the pleasure in working with Jordan Rasberry not only once, but multiple times. From listing our place for sale or purchasing a new home, he has been there for us. Organized, professional and always so catering in every way possible. When searching for our forever home, we looked at two. With Jordan’s help, we didn't have to search any further. The whole process was clear and informative. He sent us electronic documents to sign, which was perfect for our busy schedule. His follow-up is great.”
- Nam Ton“Jordan was available whenever we needed him and was very responsive to our needs; on many occasions, Jordan was able to get us a same-day viewing on short notice. When we were prepared to make an offer, Jordan was in regular contact with the selling agent, providing valuable information on seller expectations. Ultimately, Jordan helped us buy a great house in our desired neighborhood, all for below list price (a rarity in today's market). I would not hesitate to use Jordan or his team for our next real estate transaction.”
