Richard Forget's Magic Show

RICHARD FORGET'S PURE MAGIC 2024

Richard Forget's Magic Show

As many of you may know, our very own Richard Forget was an accomplished magician before he became a top real estate agent and a valued member of The Brian Kondo Real Estate Team.  He’s travelled the world performing his, shall we say, “magic!”  And now he’s scheduled to do an afternoon show at the Regent Theatre in Oshawa on Sunday October 27th.  I’ve seen him before, and he’s real good.  I’d say he’s just as good a magician as he is an agent, and if you’ve been lucky enough to have Richard as your agent, you’ll know what I mean.
