So, I called the your number on the screen and got to meet you first over the phone then in person. I appreciated the upfront and honest opinion you gave which is so authentic with you having lived in and around the surrounding areas most of your life! I cant say enough of how hard Karen works for you when looking for a property / home to purchase! I have not met a real estate representative that shows such supreme work ethic like she does! (And this isn't my first Rodeo, trying to find a home to purchase, trust me!!!) Karen is a definite "go getter" keeping the persons best interest at heart! You are also so fantastic with understanding the urgency needed when time crunch is so very important! If anyone is searching for a new dwelling of sorts, this Rep should be at the TOP of your list by far! I really appreciate you Karen for being the hard worker and good person you are!!!

This is my second time using Karen as my agent to sell and purchase a new home. Home selling and…read morepurchasing is not always an easy road to navigate but Karen is excellent at reassuring and redirecting when required. Her knowledge of the market and her network of professionals made the process seamless. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Jaquie Smith was not my real estate agent, she did represent though the seller of tge house I…read morerecently bought. From what Iheard from my Remax agent,Nigel, and from how she conducted the sale transaction, I was impressed by Jaquie. I felt that she cared about her client's interests and that she was fair. She was respectful and honest throughout the negotiations ' and sale process. I would definitely recommend Jaquie to others.

So this can be a big saving on how much you get back on the sale. That being said, you still may not pay the 1% to the other agent, as I found out in my case (only reason not full 5 stars, as I was never told this in the beginning). If the buyer had signed an agreement to their agent on the usual commission, then you are obliged to pay them the normal rate (so 3.5/1.5% for their portion). I still saved money though, as I only paid my agent 1%. This is something you will have to discuss with the realtor. That being said, I had recommended my friend in using the same agent to sell his house, and he did pay only 2% commissions. For people fearing that other agents may not show your home due to them not getting a bigger commission, I would not worry. Legally they are obliged to show your home if a client inquiries about it. As well, people looking to buy a home now a days are computer savvy, and will look online on their own time, so aren't dependent on their agent. My agent was Steve Kehoe and I got nothing but awesome service. I also got the $200 referral fee when my buddy sold his house through him. If I was selling again, they would be my first choice once more. Any less commission, you can go Comfree, but to me that's more of a hassle trying to sell it yourself.

I did a sale with Laura Green, she original helped with the purchase when the market was high a…read moredecade ago and how was helping with the sale in the most tumultuous buyers market. The property was sold in Edmonton South. Laura Green is quick, efficient, resourceful, knowledgeable and works to push the sale to the client's best interest. This is one person you want on your side when you are buying or selling a home in Edmonton. Having made the sale as an Owner based in Ontario, she made my visit into Edmonton efficient. When she suggested some furniture and fixings would help, we asked her cost for staging and she said she would do it complimentary. Her basic staging was simple. When I needed some post-tenant fix up like light bulb change and assistance to change microwave out with a new one, she was armed and ready to have a handyman assist. The last and final thing that we truly applaud her for is closing the sale with a closing the sale with two competing offers. We listed below all other similar units and she had competing offers pretty much matching the other listed units. She did a great job and we are definitely excited to refer to any friends and family looking for a home in Edmonton. Thanks for making our sale an easy process.

we bought a house from sue currie/mike currie (noralta-stony plain road office) who were the…read more listing agents. what a nightmare this was !!!! their highlite sheet portrayed the deck as having ornamental metal custom rails. my wife really liked them and the location of the house. we probably paid more than we should have but this was just the start of our ordeal. the house inspection showed the rails where not up to city code and was dangerous in that a child could get their head stuck in there. should not an experienced real estate agent know this ???? we checked how much it would be to replace them and several tradesman mentioned about five thousand dollars. they offered us one thousand dollars or ese wood rails. again we swallowed the difference because it was take it or leave it. they probably knew we had sold our house and had to be out in a short period of time. our ordeal was still not over...we has put in the contract for the garage door to be fixed...we found out it was not done because sue currie said the garage door was fine as long as it can go up and down. the lawyer said it would not be advantageous to sue since it would cost us more than we could get. my wife approached sue currie and said that if the garage door specialist found no problem with the door we would pay for the service call and if there was a problem,they would pay. she of course refused...was she confident about her experienced judgement...what do you think???? to top every thing off: when we got they key, the back door key was missing. sue did not answer her calls until she had to be texted. sue said that was all the keys. we asked for her to call the previous owner to see if he still had the keys and she did not want to. i guess that once the contract is signed and the commission is received,that is the end of her job....... even when we we are two professional people with a university education the is happen to us......beware of sue currie and lepage noralta realty

He helped us price our home with the help of market listings for our area and we ended up listing higher than we originally thought we could in this market. We had lots of viewings and ended up with an offer after only 7 days on the market and sold for only $1400 less than the listing price! Ryan was very helpful in guiding us through the selling process, was an excellent negotiator and was extremely professional. We would highly recommend him to anyone.

Me and my husband had the great pleasure of having Ryan as our realtor. This last fall we entered…read moreinto the real estate market for the second time but this time we were selling and not just buying. With the market being much more competitive for people selling this fall vs last fall it was much harder being on the market. We had originally listed with another agent who we were getting lots of showings but not great offers. In the end we switched to Ryan and he came in gave us great pointers that helped make our house show all that it had to offer. Within a month of our first meeting with Ryan our house had multiple offers and sold. I would recommend his services to anyone looking at selling or buying who wants someone with amazing market knowledge and great customer service.

When we decided to make the move to Edmonton from Halifax based on a job offer I received, Patti…read morecame highly recommended from my VP whom he had used when purchasing his house while making an international move a few years ago. For the three days that we were in Edmonton for our house hunting trip, Patti spent most of that time in constant touch with us. We gave her the profile of the areas and homes we were looking for in advance, and she compiled a number that fit our criteria - and then deftly changed directions when we changed some of those criteria while here. We ended up purchasing a new infill in Old Strathcona and worked tirelessly on our behalf despite having to declare a conflict (her brokerage also represented the builder). When she found out that there were a couple of items not completely finished by our closing date, she worked all day to ensure they were taken care of so the house was move-in ready (as we'd been living in a hotel with pets for a couple of days prior to closing, we REALLY wanted to be in our new place on time). The whole time she was very professional. This was our third time using a Realtor and the previous time when we purchased our house in Halifax was in complete contrast to Patti (the Halifax agent was a very poor experience). Patti made the purchase as smooth as possible, and allowed us to focus our thoughts on other aspects of the move. We'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home - particularly those in central Edmonton.

If I could choose less than a 1 star I would. Patti was completely unprofessional towards us…read more(renters, who's landlord was selling the house we are in). Things were moved in our house and weren't put back, she complained to our landlord about our lawn (which we mow regularly but has dandelions in the summer), she ignored our instruction to leave one of the rooms alone during a cleaning as our puppy was in there (I came home to take him out and the door was open), they scheduled viewings at times that didn't work for us despite my informing them of availability and when I let her know that didn't work and that I had already told them of this, she insulted the kennel that my puppy is in when I'm not in the house (which is perfectly acceptable for his size as he's not fully house trained yet). I have never experience such a level of unprofessionalism and would not recommend her. Can't speak for any of the other realtor's at the company.
