Working with Jim Pilkington during our family’s home search was such a blessing. His patience and knowledge in sales from North Vancouver to Coquitlam gave us the confidence to purchase our first home in Vancouver; Jim stuck with us for over a year and truly delivered a great home-buying experience. We look forward to continue using Jim’s services in the real estate market in the future! - J.P. Roy

We bought our first home at 25 and had no idea what we were doing. Luckily, we had Jim! Jim is patient, responsive, and trustworthy. He’s super knowledgeable about real estate and well-connected in the North Vancouver market. He helped us feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. Plus, Jim pays for professional movers! This is something we would’ve debated spending money on but Jim took that final step off our list of things to worry about. - Amanda W

We met Jim through lynnvalleyhomes website. We really liked his website because of its clean design and functionality. When we got more serious about selling our condo we met with Jim in person. Instantly, his professionalism and knowledge of the market impressed us. We began working with Jim on the sale and then later used him for the purchase of our new place as well. Buying or selling your home can be a very stressful time, but because of Jim, we were quite relaxed. He was truly a God-sent! - Plakilla Sandell

My mom passed away suddenly in Nov. 2019 and we had to deal with clearing and selling my family home in North Vancouver. Living at a distance (in Victoria, on Vancouver Island), we absolutely needed to work with a trustworthy realtor and thank our lucky stars that we found Jim Pilkington. Jim helped us in every way; by finding people to help us improve the house, to marketing and selling the house. He knew the exact right price point to make the sale happen fairly and in good time. Jim comes with my very highest recommendation. He was at all times professional and understanding of our unique circumstances, having to travel by car and ferry every time we came over to North Van. He responded to all my emails right away. He even monitored the home for us while it was vacant and helped pay for the move! I especially appreciated his very positive manner. He inspires confidence. I have the utmost respect for Jim as both a realtor and as a terrific person. If you need a real estate agent, look no further than Jim Pilkington! - Valerie Murray

Jim is now more than our realtor, our FRIEND!!! He is one of the most professional people we have met.

We highly recommend him if your looking for anything related to buying/selling a property. He really knows the real state market, and is such a nice person to deal with. It was a real pleasure to work with him and we are so grateful for all his help and for being so nice with our family! - andreina gonzalez

We had the pleasure of working with Jim Pilkington to sell my elderly mother’s home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Jim went above and beyond—not only handling the sale with professionalism and care, but also assisting with decluttering, junk removal, donation coordination, and staging. Thanks to his support and expert guidance, the home sold quickly and at an excellent price. What could have been a stressful and emotional process was made smooth and worry-free. Jim’s patience, compassion, and knowledge were evident from start to finish.

We were new to North Vancouver and reached to Jim due to his stellar reviews. Jim helped us find the community that suited our needs and wants the best. He even nudged us in the right direction when we had doubts about the house we now own and love. Thank you Jim. - Cindylee Wagar

We found ourselves in a tough spot and needed to sell our home quickly. After meeting with Jim and hearing his game plan, we decided to take a leap and trust him—and we’re so glad we did. Even though the market wasn’t particularly hot at the time, our listing shot to the top of local searches, and the phone started ringing almost immediately. To our surprise, the home sold in just two weeks—at full asking price. Not a dollar less! With the sale complete, we were in a race against time to find a new home before the handover date. We didn’t want to end up in temporary housing or a rental. Jim understood the urgency and didn’t waste a minute. He found us a house that checked every box—and then, against all odds, negotiated it below asking price, even with multiple offers on the table. Jim isn’t just a realtor—he’s a true professional who knows this industry inside and out. We’re incredibly grateful for his dedication, support, and professional standards in execution throughout the entire process. Thank you Jim! - Ken L.

Working with JIm has been nothing short of exceptional. When we were buying our first home, he was right there with us—responsive, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. As first-time buyers, we were navigating a lot of unknowns, but he answered every question and gave us solid, honest advice. We were ready to offer more than asking, but thanks to his sharp negotiation skills, we got the home for a fantastic price. A few years later, we turned to him again to sell my aunt’s apartment as she transitioned into a care facility. Once again, he exceeded expectations. The sale went smoothly, and he managed to get well over our asking price. Throughout it all, he treated my aunt with warmth and respect, which meant a lot to us. We’ve worked with him through both buying and selling, and in every situation, he's earned our complete trust. We’d recommend him without hesitation—he’s professional, reliable, and genuinely cares about his clients. - Nichol

I’ve known Jim for decades, so when it came time to sell our apartment, there was no question who we were going to call. And honestly, he exceeded all expectations. Jim is one of the kindest, most caring people you’ll ever meet, and that comes through in everything he does. He made the entire selling process feel smooth and easy, keeping us informed every step of the way and always making sure we felt comfortable and confident in our decisions. What really stood out is how professional and knowledgeable he is, without ever being pushy or overwhelming. He explained everything clearly, handled all the details behind the scenes, and made sure the apartment was marketed in the best possible way. His advice and support were spot-on, and we ended up with a great result. It’s rare to find someone who’s both incredibly good at what they do and genuinely cares about the people they’re working with—but that’s Jim. We were extremely satisfied with the entire experience and wouldn’t hesitate to work with him again in the future. I’d recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell—he’s simply the best! - Brennan Sekora

Jim was a pleasure to work with during my recent sale and subsequent purchase. Even in this current slow real estate market my apartment sold quickly.

He is a really friendly person and the ultimate professional with a lot of knowledge. I highly recommend Jim. - Helena
