Meet Our Team

Real estate has always run in our family, just not always in the way you’d expect.

Long before there was a “Lourantos Group,” there was Janette closing deals at the dining room table, and Christo watching how Janette worked. Janette started her real estate career in Cape Town in 2002. It was a move that felt right, since her schedule could accommodate her young family. It was those days that inspired Christo to follow in his mother’s footsteps.

In 2004, our family moved from South Africa to the GTA. Janette started her business from scratch all over again, the same way she’d started it back in Cape Town: one client, and one relationship, at a time.

In 2013, Christo became licensed and joined Janette, just over a decade after her career began. Building a team is a delicate process. The wrong match, or a misallocation of work and skills, can bring a team down just as fast as it can bring one together. Janette’s success in business was built on doing the right thing, and always representing her clients’ best interests. Christo knew from day one, that to join Janette meant doing business the same way.

We wanted our clients, and their family, to trust our family for all their real estate needs.

Today, our success comes back to that same principle: always put our clients first. We believe people can tell when you honestly put their interests first, and that feeling is what keeps them coming back to us when it’s time to buy or sell.

Our business is highly focused in Oakville and Burlington, the towns that have always felt like home to us, but because most of our business comes from referrals and past clients. That means when someone needs a trustworthy advocate outside of our immediate neighbourhood, we will help them in neighbouring communities like Hamilton, Mississauga, or Toronto.
