Testimonials

We were introduced to Nathalie and Janice through a friend. What you learn instantly during your first meeting with them is that they are unlike any other real estate agents you have met. Firstly, they are a team and bring two complementary but accretive perspectives to the table for the same price. Secondly, they certainly have the deep knowledge of where the market is and how to be successful in the market, but their real differentiator is their hands-on approach. They make you feel you are their most important client and they focus on even the smallest of details to ensure the presentation of your house and the strategy for selling your home maximize the market opportunity available.
