It depends largely on where you will be working, what sort of house you require (apartment vs. townhouse vs. detached house) and what your budget it. While they do vary in quality, there are schools in every neighborhood.

I agree with you. It depends upon where you want to live and where you are working. I suggest you first hire any real estate agent and get details from him/her regarding to places where you want your home.

I just got married and we’re thinking of buying a home vaughan. Some of our friends are telling us to buy only through the listing agent because we would save. Is this true?

You wouldn't save anything, as you are not paying your agent's commission anyway. The listing agent would just make more money since he doesn't have to share his commission.

you would be better served hiring your own agent who can arrange showings of multiple properties, assist you with negotiations and advise you through the process. Having your own agent also eliminates any potential conflicts of interest.

www.realtor.ca

It's Multiple Listing Service (MLS) shared by various brokers all over Canada. For unlisted property search, you can try Kijiji or individual broker's site (i.e. Re/Max, Royal LePage, Century 21, Magic, Exit, Keller realty etc.).

Toronto is a good place, I love it but sad to say I can't help you because I am an Australian. I heard too much about it, hope you will enjoy there.
