I'm sorry the other reviewer had a bad experience, I'm sure that agent is no longer working with us if he was really that unprofessional. Realtors have to police ourselves better, and not be scared to call out bad behaviour.

No doubt there are some truly professional realtors at Kore, but I had the misfortune of working…read morewith one who was a disappointment and whose incompetence resulted in me losing the condo I wanted. Working with him was like working with a call-in centre agent who had ADHD. He put me on speakerphone without telling me. I could hear the entire office, but I couldn't hear him. He didn't listen, he made mistakes, he misinformed me, talked over me, and he didn't give me any guidance. When I told him I wanted to talk to someone else, he kept calling me again and again. Despite his attention, nothing he did was useful in any way. I was abandoned. No words are strong enough to express the stress I was put through, and the anger, betrayal, and hurt I feel. I am heartbroken.

Ariane is the first realtor I have ever had and after contacting a few in the meantime, I felt like she was the best fit. She knew what we wanted, is fun, down-to-earth and very professional. We got a great property and she's been great. Sometimes realtors can be pushy and I like that she isn't. She knows what to look for and definitely knows her stuff. I still have a stack of her business cards to hand to people looking to buy in Vancouver! :) Gillian Dunn

It is my pleasure to recommend Ariane to anyone who is looking to either buy or sell real estate …read more My husband and I have worked with her on numerous occassions and have always found her to be professional, hard working and knowledgeable. Ariane emanates a sense of trust - worthiness that makes you feel very secure during what is without a doubt a very involved process. Her experience at each phase of the sales effort is superior. The whole process from start to finish, whether business related or interpersonal, were accomplished with a noticeable degree of competence, humility, integrity and grace You will not be disappointed with the results.

From Leah who answers the phone to the partners everyone knows your name, your property and is prompt with communication. They do not use lock boxes and will attend every showing in person. Not only did we use them to buy we didn't have to think twice about who we wanted to trust selling our home to. We asked for no feedback unless it was crucial to our home presentation and they respect that request. My preferred communication is by text - no problem. I'd say this is a team that can handle older clients as well as the younger clientele.

We had a couple of Realtors in mind and after meeting with Rebecca it was clear that she was an experienced real estate professional and our decision was made! She and Stephanie brought staging ideas that aligned with our decor, had a virtual tour/photos done in short order. We listed in what is usually a "down time" in real estate however Rebecca marketed well, held an open house and was involved every step of the way in home showings. She expertly guided us through multiple offers and sold our home fast. She referred us to a team of Realtors in the area we are moving to which was fantastic as they worked together to get both the purchase and sale done and possession dates are structured perfectly. If you're looking for a Realtor in the Tri-cities and beyond, call Rebecca!

We first met Rebecca when she was recommended to us by our Real Estate Agent in Ontario as we were…read moremoving across country. The first chat with Rebecca really set the stage for us and we knew at that moment that we wanted to work with her. Rebecca was so easy to talk to, down to earth and really made us feel at ease about our move. Moving across country was already very daunting and involved so many things, but Rebecca was amazing. Rebecca is so knowledgeable and experienced and never got tired of all of our crazy questions, or if she did, she never made us feel like it was ever an imposition. Rebecca's colleague Steph is also amazing, so friendly and very helpful. The personal touches from Rebecca and Steph really make you feel like they are as invested as you are in finding the home you want. Fast forward to our next home purchase and we did not hesitate in contacting Rebecca to help us find our dream home. We looked at so many houses to find the perfect one and Rebecca was always there when we needed advice, wanted to run ideas by her or to just answer one of our MANY questions. Rebecca is a very seasoned Realtor and fights for her clients. When we were in a situation where we got bumped from the house we had an offer in on because our house had not sold yet, we took it as a sign that we weren't supposed to have that house for whatever reason. But then that offer fell through and our house had sold, so we took that as a sign that we were supposed to have that house after all. So Rebecca helped us put another offer in and even helped a very inexperienced Realtor close the deal so they didn't risk losing a second deal for the same house. Working with Rebecca and Steph to find our dream house has been amazing and we would recommend her (and have) to everyone.
