Testimonials
When our much-beloved rental apartment was listed for sale by our landlords last year, my partner and I set out to purchase our first home. Prior to this, I had had NO idea why anyone would enlist the help of a real estate agent to buy! After all, the tools are all there on the internet for people to find what they’re looking for, right? Wrong. The process was extremely frustrating, and it was obvious some selling agents we spoke to were trying to strongarm us into buying shoddy condos.
The moment we met Michaela, that all changed. Our search was a long one, on account of our small area of interest and exacting specifications, but she tirelessly worked to make sure we were happy. We were given customized property lists for many offerings not yet on the public websites, she arranged countless viewings and escorted us personally to everyone. At the very moment I began to tire of looking, she gave us an amazing surprise: A unit in the building where we were already renting, on the exact same floor! It met every one of our needs, and had been listed not 24 hours before, which meant that we were able to put an offer down before it was advertised publicly. Michaela was our ally and advocate throughout the process, and she always went well beyond the extra mile. She is a warm, lovely person and a consummate professional, and I would recommend her services to absolutely anyone, but *especially* to first time buyers and sellers.
Michaela worked tirelessly to get us into the perfect home for our family. She spent months helping us look and explore different options. She was always available to communicate and navigate the overwhelming journey. When we finally found the house for us Michaela worked every angle to see that we had an upper hand in the stressful process of competing with other offers. Michaela personally presented our offers and didn’t stop communicating with the selling realtor until completion. Buying or selling a home can be such a difficult experience but Michaela did everything she could to make it easier for me and my husband. I would personally recommend her to any family or friends and we will never move without Michaela on our team.
Michaela was the perfect person to walk us through the purchase of our first home. There was so much we didn’t understand or know ahead of time, but she guided us through each step of the process seamlessly. She was so knowledgeable and confident that we immediately knew we could trust her. She went above and beyond for us in many different ways and made our home buying process smooth and as stress free as possible. And she is just a gem of a person. Thank you so much Michaela!
My husband and I decided to put our house up for sale. We knew we had a lot of work ahead of us, it was super stressful. We sat down with Michaela and immediately I felt at ease knowing we made the right decision. She was honest, kind and very personable. She walked us through the entire process. Once the ball started rolling, between the stager and the photographer even I started to fall in love with my house again. It was presented so well that it sold within days of hitting the market, in part to it being priced accurately and shown so well through the outstanding marketing approach. Michaela was also available for any questions or concerns, and in the middle of selling our house she found us our new home as well, all during the pandemic. I would never hesitate to recommend her for any of your real estate needs. She is most definitely the person who will go above and beyond to make your dreams come true.
I want to convey a big thanks to you for bringing our first home in Canada into our lives. It was such a great pleasure to work with you. We believe your honesty, case and efforts will take you to great places in the times to come. And we are extremely happy that we have you as our Realtor for our lives.
We are so grateful we had Michaela to help us find our new home (in the middle of a pandemic no less). Right from the start we felt like she was on our side as she answered all our questions promptly. Michaela was attentive to our needs, and looked into the pet restrictions of the properties within our parameters to ensure we didn’t waste our time on a place that wouldn’t accept our dog.
Since we were coming from Vancouver Island we also only had a week in Vancouver to pick and make an offer on a house. Michaela managed our time well, allowing us to see over 30 properties, including second viewings of our favourites, in three days.
Thanks to her experience she promptly addressed the deficiencies that arose from the home inspection, whether that was initiating a fix or getting clarification on an issue.
Michaela is also just an all around great person! We can’t recommend her enough.
