Testimonials

There are many things I can say about the high quality of service I provide to my home seller and home buyer clients, but probably none would be as credible as testimonials from some of my recent clients themselves.

So please take a moment to read the following testimonials. I hope they indicate my experience and integrity, as well as make it clear how much I enjoy helping people with their real estate needs.

I would be happy to email you additional testimonials if you are interested.

 

"... I have bought and sold five homes through Barrie over the years, because I trust him."

"This is just a short note to again say thank you for a job very well done.

My parents passed away and I am one of the three kids left to deal with the estate.

It was a very emotional time where mistakes could be made in dealing with such matters and the goal was to do the right thing and have professional help when and where needed. A few local real estate agents were consulted and they spoke to the realistic price that we would be a reasonable expectation, on the market, at the time for the property. As there were three of us a decision had to be made on the right realtor to do the best job of marketing our much beloved property. Up to this point the “so called” estimated selling prices seemed too low. It was at this time we met with Barrie Vattoy to cast his opinion on our dilemma. Barrie was not a realtor who worked in the area, where our house was to be sold but he reassured us that sound marketing reasoning would lead him to think that this property was under valued by the agents in the area. He did a market analysis and came up with a good well backed value for our property even though he was primarily working in another market in another part of the city.

We gave the listing to Barrie and he went to work in his effort to get the house ready for a weekend showing, one week away. He held an open house over two days and within two days after the open he had three offers. The house sold for $140,000.00 over the expectations that the local experts had told us we would be selling for. What a smooth transaction especially at a time when all of our emotions were running high. To this day we are thankful; we did our due diligence and maximized our selling price for a very special property that my parents worked a life time to achieve."

Thanks again Barrie

guided us through unfamilar territory never pressuring us but always watching
out for our welfare until we found exactly what we were looking for.When it came
time for my husbands' mother to relocate it didn't enter our minds to think of
anyone else but Barrie." P.C. Port Coquitlam"

"Barrie Vattoy is the best realtor in the Tri-cities. He has years and years of experience in the area, but also ensured we gained enough product knowledge to make smart decisions. We were out with him practically every weekend to explore all our options and he would never let us settle for
less than what we wanted. We ended up with truly the house of our dreams at an excellent price in a neighbourhood where we are excited to raise our family."

As a first time home buyer, starting the process of buying a place seemed like a daunting task. When I started working with Barrie, he assured me that house hunting did not have to be a complex ordeal. As my agent, he showed me the in's and out's of how the process works. He made sure I was always one of the first to see a new listing when it came on the market. With over 25 years of experience in the industry, he knew all the right questions to ask and the potential signs of danger when viewing a place. I developed a great relationship while working with him and have to say that if you pass up the opportunity for him to represent you, it will be one of the biggest mistakes you could make when trying to buy a place. His professionalism and knowledge made the process a fun and exhilarating experience, as it should be."
