Are there any client testimonials or success stories available?

Yes, we have numerous testimonials from satisfied clients, showcasing our commitment to excellence in real estate services. The easiest place is our 5 star review on Google. But we will highlight a recent one here from Peter Li:

 

“We have been working with Adam and Matt for nearly five years after I initially came across them through their very insightful and informative podcast. During this five year period we have sold three condos, purchased one condo and one half duplex (we’re not investors, just a lot of incremental upsizing). All of these were run by Adam and Matt, together with their team.

I rarely write reviews and it’s hard for me to articulate the profound level of trust I have in Adam and his team. They are incredibly hard working and responsive. You will always hear their honest thoughts, whether it’s the potential shortcomings of a property you’re excited to buy or the potential risks of a property you’re rushing to sell in a down market. Their wisdom and foresight has ensured that we are not only happy when the deal closes but also have found a home we will enjoy for years to come. They are absolutely the ones you want in your corner when there is uncertainty as well. Their approach to negotiations is collaborative and will get the deal done, without the drama. They speak from a great deal of experience, analysis and intuition borne out of a deep passion for the industry.

As someone who regularly engages professional service providers as part of my day job (not in real estate), I have rarely come across the caliber of service, stewardship and thoughtfulness that you will get from this team. They are simply unmatched. It is a privilege to have had them help us through the years and I hope they never retire.”

 

And we have no plans to retire!
