Tina, took client based service to another level. She met and exceeded everything I would have expected from a real estate agent. Talking me through the rough market and the decisions that have to be made when dealing with it. She has an impeccable eye for detail when it comes to know what a buyer will want to see, from the pictures online to where you put certain furniture for staging. Tina is the best !!!!

Told to turn down a good offer because he didn't like the other agent. Left me on the hook for a house when they couldn't sell mine. No offers to help, they just walked away with no accountabilty.

Possibly the worst and most unprofessional experience I have ever had with a realty company. Our…read morehouse has been on the market for approx 4 months and we have had a couple of low ball offers of which we had advised our realtor that we were not going to accept. At one point we had told her to got the a lower price and they took it upon themselves to adjust the price even lower without concent. Originally we had winter pictures and had ask her to come out and take newer spring ones since we had opened the pool and the deck and fire pit were all set up also. She came and took one pic of the front of the house from her car and left, leaving the winter pics up on MLS. We have felt that their effort has been lack luster to say the least, not even driving to meet us in person to present the offers and explain the paperwork, emailing them and we would have to print, sign, scan, and email them back, very unprofessional. Maybe they should stick to condos and multi-million dollar listings in Chester.

I used A La Carte to sell my home. They are a subsidiary of a full service brokerage called…read more"Innovative Realty", but this review is just for their independently named mere posting service. Basically they will get your house listed on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), Realtor.ca, and viewpoint.ca (a popular listing service in Nova Scotia) without you having to hire an agent, for a flat fee. It was roughly $500 to just do the listing with 6 pictures, and $800 bucks for the listing, a lawn sign (with your own phone number on it), and 16 pictures. To give you a sense of the savings, if I had hired an agent at the standard 2.5% on a $300,000 transaction, it would have cost me $7500 + HST. I spent $800 + GST and that's it, so $6700 more dollars in my pocket on the sale, and all I had to do was field a few calls, leave a lockbox on the doorknob, and sit there for a few open houses. (Wayyyyy less than $6700 worth of work by almost anyone's standards.) The customer service agent (Thelma?) was really helpful and responsive, she even gave out a little free advice from time to time. The lawn sign was of very high quality and probably worth it if you're in a high visibility spot (and it also makes you not look too amateurish). Whenever I requested changes (new photos, open house dates etc.) they happened quickly and efficiently. They also profile your home on their own website included in the price. It gives you a link to work with if you want to sell on social media or forward an email, but I doubt it gets much traffic in and of itself. If you want to sell your own place, and you're savvy enough that all you need is a professional looking sign and exposure on MLS/realtor.ca/viewpoint, in my research a-la-carte is best bang for your buck for a mere posting in Nova Scotia, and I had a very positive experience with them. P.S. If you're curious about using them, but think (like I did) that you can just use kijiji for free, we concurrently ran a kijiji ad, and A-La-Carte ran one for us too. I think in the 5 weeks it was listed I got maybe one email. Much to my surprise, kijiji seems kind of useless for this. It seems there's no way around having to spend some money to get on the MLS to be successful)
