“Because of Tim, we were able to find not one but two homes. When we began looking for our first, real estate was moving quickly. Tim was extremely kind and patient while helping us to see a variety of places in and out of the West End. In the end, Tim suggested a new listing that would have otherwise flown under our radar. We fell in love and shortly after, it became our first home. Later, when we began to think about upsizing, Tim came to us with a listing he thought would suit us. Because of his close attention to detail and understanding of our preferences, he was able to once again pinpoint a home that was perfect for us. All the while, he made the sale of our first home exceptionally easy. After buying and selling our first home with Tim, and then buying our second, we are absolutely delighted and thrilled with him and can’t imagine ever working with anyone else. Through all three transactions, Tim has been amazing and incredibly hardworking.”

Testimonials
A walk in the park
“Not only have I found my dream place but because of Tim the whole experience was a walk in the park. He quickly learned what I needed and always alerted me to new listings of interest. He respected my opinion and was never too pushy. I trust him completely and would recommend him to anyone. It’s because of Tim’s market knowledge that I was able to beat out the other bids and buy my place at the right price. Thanks Tim!”

Knowledge, patience and moderate attitude
“I found my ideal place in 2010 by the help of Tim. Some of my Chinese friends couldn’t understand why I chose Tim’s service with my bashful English. But Tim’s professional knowledge, patience and moderate attitude relieved my anxious and unreasonable worry which every new buyer may behave when he/she makes a decision to buy or sell a property. I know using English in property transaction for a new immigrant is not an easy thing. But I always recommend Tim to my Chinese friends even their English is not good because I believe to get a deal is not just a business of language. Learning different language and knowledge during the deal may make us rejoiced and benefited. Meanwhile you could avoid the push-buying feeling from some other ordinary realtors. I am so happy to have such friend, Tim in my new town, Vancouver.”

Ideas and enthusiasm
“Tim was wonderful to work with. He had excellent ideas about how to stage and sell my condo, he was always available and walked me through each step of the process of selling my place. My condo was difficult to sell because of the view onto another building and minimal light and Tim’s enthusiasm for the condo and the building really came across both to me and to buyers.”

You always took the time to really listen
“Dear Tim,
Thank you so much for all your help in the recent purchase of my West End condo. Your warmth, enthusiasm and integrity were apparent from the first time I met you. Your conscientious approach was evident in everything you did whether it was researching a property, tracking down information or managing the many details. Of all the great qualities that you brought to the process, what stands out the most is that you always took the time to really listen — you weren’t just trying to sell me a property, you genuinely wanted to help me find just the right place to call home. I feel extremely fortunate to have worked with you and I would recommend you to others in a heartbeat.”

It was a pleasure working with someone as attentive as you
“Tim,
A quick note to thank you so much for all of the work you’ve done assisting with the sale of our place, the purchase of our new home, and all of the related transitional items that followed. Over the years, Roger and I have worked with many different Realtors and you have been exceptional. We’ve been impressed by your diligence, conscientiousness, intelligence, attention to detail, and integrity. As two detail-oriented people ourselves, it was a pleasure working with someone as attentive as you. In an age where customer service seems to be waning, it’s nice to find someone who genuinely cares about client satisfaction. Thank you again!”

You were like a family member to us
“Tim, we feel very fortunate to have met you and to have had you as our real estate agent. Coming from outside Vancouver, we were lost in the maze of terms, rules and regulations regarding real estate in B.C. and in Vancouver in particular. But, you patiently explained to us all the differences between the terms and the rules governing the sales of different types of condos, which helped us make a decision more easily. You were very quick and efficient in your responses, and you were not afraid to stand up for us even if a sale might fall through. Once the offer was accepted, you stood by our side and helped us go through the sale process step by step with your referrals and answers to any questions we had. At critical times you were more than a real estate agent, rather you were like a family member to us. So, thank you for everything. We really appreciate your dedication. We would gladly recommend you to anyone who needs to buy or sell a place in Vancouver. We wish you the very best.”

He really fought for my bids and the results were great
“Tim helped me think of issues and questions that I would not have on my own. He was very patient while I looked at a lot of properties. He provided great service through the entire process and continues to keep me up to date with market pulses even now, 2 years later. I would not hesitate to recommend Tim as a realtor in Vancouver. He really fought for my bids and the results were great. Now when I am looking at real estate I am a bit of a hawk thanks to my experience with Tim.”

Professionalism and ethical approach
“Dear Tim,
I just wanted to thank you for your assistance over the last 6 months in helping me finding my Vancouver apartment. You have been diligent and accessible at all time and have always kept my very specific criteria in mind when proposing opportunities to me. I very much appreciated your unbiased approach in guiding me through the different options that I had. Your professionalism and ethical approach meant that I could trust your judgement, which was particularly important for me, being located overseas. You really made my life easier!! Thanks again and best wishes for the future.”
