Ben Sweet

Ben runs a very professional business. His ability to coach his client through the selling process was very good. This becomes even more critical when markets become more challenging, as they have been recently. We also found his follow up and follow through to be invaluable, and appreciated his attentiveness from start to finish. We would recommend Ben and his associates if you’re looking to sell or purchase a house, as we hired them to do both. - Rob Butler

We worked with Ben to sell our house in tougher than usual market to sell in. From the first time we met with Ben through every meeting thereafter, Ben showed a level of professionalism and confidence that made us feel 100% trust in the process of selling. From listening to our needs in the sale of our home with regard to price and time on market, to providing insight into what a reasonable list price would be in our area, what upgrades could help sell the property more quickly or for a better price, and to knowing when was the right time to get the property on the market. Our home sold very quickly for the price we had hoped for. T he negotiation process was easy and painless and Ben was able to not only get us a great price, but he also helped negotiate the conditions of the sale to help us the best for our situation. The process from start to end was extremely easy and basically stress free, which was a very welcomed experience. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Ben again in the future or to refer him to my friends. - Marc David

Ben was a pleasure to work with. He kept us well informed during the whole process and ended up exceeding our sale price expectations. I liked that he kept us up to date with market trends and seemed to have an inside scoop on similar properties in the neighborhood. I would definitely work with him again in the future. - Greg F

I met Ben Sweet via referral through a friend. It turned out to be the best referral ever. I did speak with at least 5 other agents before choosing Ben. His knowledge, ideas and experience are all top notch. - Holly Crawford

Ben Sweet and his team made the process of selling our home both painless and profitable. His experience and expertise were evident upon first meeting, and we felt comfortable, given his tried and true processes. We really value communication and Ben excelled in that regard as well. We’re so happy we sold through Ben and would definitely do so again! We would definitely recommend him to others and in fact have done so many times already. Thank you, Ben! - Steve Gomori

Ben provided me with excellent service at every step of my house sale. He really understands the market and helped me prepare and price my house for a quick sale above listing price. While I am very satisfied with the value he helped me receive, I am even more pleased with his work to ensure that the deal went smoothly. Ben is an excellent communicator, and he guided me through every step of this journey. I strongly recommend for anyone looking to sell their house to meet with Been. - Steve Kellett

When relocating to Calgary from Ottawa, my local agent provided me with a Calgary real estate agent her brokerage had worked with before and after struggling to make contact for a week, I reached out to Ben Sweet's team based on this sites reviews. I called and was immediately transferred to Ben, even though he was out of town, and after getting my particulars he had his associate Scott Hagel follow-up. Scott exceeded all expectations at every step of our journey to buy a new home. His advice was always great and helped us choose an area that met our needs, he cleared 3 days of his schedule to show us 20+ homes when we flew in to start our search and then performed several virtual tours of houses after we had to return to Ottawa. When negotiating the purchase, he helped set expectations based on past interactions with the sellers realty company and helped guide us with the negotiations to arrive a final offer we were happy with. Every step of the process from initial contact, a thank you package of gourmet brownies, and a happy father's day email have shown that this team takes the idea of a World Class experience to the next level. - Dan Bignell

Ben Sweet has been the best realtor over the years, he helped sell our first home, and thanks to his strategic advice, created a bidding war to get us top dollar. Then he ensured we were able to win the bid on our current (dream) home. Since then he's been our advisor on many home, renovation and realty related questions, and he always takes the time to help us out. He's strategic, knows the Calgary market, has honest, sound advice, and is fun to work with too. Couldn’t recommend Ben Sweet any more! - Irena Knorr

From start to finish, Ben and his team took care of our needs and was able to sell our condo in an incredibly tough market during hard times. He was able to negotiate a price which we were happy with and was higher than the average condo selling in our complex. Ben was incredibly responsive to our questions and often responded within an hour. Early morning or late at night, Ben was there for us. What I was impressed by the most was the care we received after purchasing our first house a few weeks after selling the condo. There were issues with the property found the day before possession such as: leaking appliances, birds nesting in the vents, junk left in the house, and keys that didn't work. The team tried reaching out to the sellers who basically said it was our problem now. This made our first house experience very depressing when we should have been excited. Knowing this, Ben and Scott went above and beyond by literally coming to our house and personally removing leftover trash. They also took care of the three birds nests in our vents and even had a piano professionally removed, which was also left behind. I soon reaiized how Ben and the team truly have their clients' best interest at heart and aim to provide the best experience possible, even when things don't go as expected. - Fritz Tolentino

I would highly recommend Ben Sweet to anyone looking for a successful home sale. I would work with him again in a heartbeat. He was professional throughout the process and responded promptly to all our questions. He is extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market & is an absolute pleasure to work with. - Adarsh M

Ben and Scott are very service focused realtors that were amazing to work with and helped us find a home in our tight timeline. Scott listened to all of our needs, answered all of our questions (including the dumb ones), and was quick to respond at all hours making sure we were taken care of. Scott was able to book our last minute viewing requests and changes, and kept us in check to keep us within our budget. He gave us unfiltered opinions on viewings and let us know when "renovated" homes were of poor craftsmanship. Living in a condo for 18 years and buying our first house, Scott pointed out a lot of details that we would have overlooked which made our decision making easier. When we found a home we loved, Scott was able to negotiate our many of our requests with the seller and managed to get us an additional $1500 off our agreed offer. Scott made sure all of the questions we had for the buyer were answered and followed up with us immediately after hearing back. Scott and Ben were a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend them! - Luis T

This isn’t the first time Ben has helped me out, when I first arrived in Calgary Ben helped me find a condo. He was very careful to make sure everything was what I needed. This time I got Ben to help me sell my house. Once more I wasn’t disappointed, he helped give me tips on what I should do to make the sale look a little more appealing. If I had a question he answered lickety split. I never had to wait to hear from him. He manage to get what I was asking as well. It didn’t hurt that he showed a lot of respect and has a great personality. If I was to do this again I would get Ben to help for sure. - Donna Hill

Ben is very knowledgeable about his industry, professional and pleasant to work with. Anytime I text, email or left phone message he always responded in a timely manner. He truly is an excellent agent. - Alla and Jack Halliday

i'm writing this review for many reasons but one in particular, and that was because what brought me to call Ben Sweets and associates in the first place, it was because of the online reviews! Anyways good thing we did use Ben! You can't pay someone enough to care and definitely Ben and his team cared and were so professional. They definitely knew their stuff, unlike the other realtors we interviewed before Ben. I would ask them questions and they basically were ill informed about their very own industry.. But when we interviewed Ben we also grilled him, as this was our first time listing and selling a house. He never blinked once, was kind and answered all of our questions and concerns and also very responsive from all hours of the day and even night during our sale. We are very happy we hired him. We listed our house and by day 7 we sold it! Ben's marketing really does work and this is proof! Even during a pandemic! So thank you Ben and your team! And I hope when you read this, you will also call because you won't be disappointed. There wasn't enough star options to rate highly but the full 5 will have work! - Edina Krajnovic

For over a decade Ben has been our go-to for any and all realty advice. He has time and again proven to be extremely knowledgeable and professional and a fantastic fella all around. I have many times, without hesitation, recommended him to friends. - Darvin

Ben helped us sell our old house and buy a new one. He is kind, friendly and has a lot of experience and knowledgeable about real estate. He answered all of our questions and gave us very good advice on how to sell and buy. We listened to everything he said and were able to purchase a house that we really wanted. Ben's pricing strategies also allowed us to sell our previous house super quickly. We are very happy with these results. 5 out of 5 starts are not enough. Thank you so much Ben, you are awesome! - Chikako Omine

Ben's attention to detail and customer service were exceptional in both the sale and purchase of our new home! Ben clearly communicated with us and asked us detailed questions regarding our wants and needs regarding the move. We were treated as valued customers and friends. Our interactions were less about the "sale" and more around the “fit” to our needs. The timely, professional advice and expertise that Ben has to offer, exceeded our expectations. We were able to sell beyond our asking price while timing the purchase of our dream home. We can't say enough about Ben, other than if you need a trustworthy, knowledgeable Realtor you need go no further! Thanks, Ben. - Troy Deck

We bought an investment property in Calgary and were represented by Scott and Ben. Scott is very knowledgeable, full of energy and honest. I fully recommend Scott and Ben and would love to do business with them in the future. - Optimum Rentals

Ben Sweet is thorough and professional. He did a lot more for me than I ever expected from a Realtor. I really appreciated how he was on top of things and how he kept me informed every step of the way. Very highly recommended! - Emily Liu

Ben and his team were very friendly, reliable and helpful. We were able to have our house sold in very little time at a reasonable price. I was very appreciative of the ease with which this went during even while Covid-19 is going on. Such a safe and practical method, with ideas and patience. Professional knowledge of the neighborhood to sell our house in a timely, safe and amicable fashion. I definitely recommend working with this team. - Trish Taylor

As a first time home buyer I was easily overwhelmed but Scott came through for me time and time again. I would 100% recommend him. He did great work. - Simone Graw

You are probably wondering why you only see 5 star reviews and thinking to yourself, are these reviews all actually real? Yes they absolutely are. Ben is very professional, timely, and knowledgeable. The current covid market has become a little bit unpredictable and very fast paced with extremely limited inventory in our price range. Ben was ready to jump at anything that peaked our interest right away. Most the time I felt like I was his only client as to how much focus he put in our interests. Upon taking us on what seemed like numerous property walk throughs (we were quite picky), he was quick to point out things of interest right away. He was thorough, funny and very personable. As a first time home buyer, you aren't quite sure what you need in a realtor. Ben is all those things you don't even think about. His knowledge base is extensive and will aid you in making the right purchase. I cannot recommend Ben enough, trust me, you will be left in good hands. Solid 10/10. - Niko Doikas

Professional and knows their stuff! Highly recommended! Ben is great and so is his team! You won't regret hiring him, he sold our house in 7 days! His marketing is on point! - Naz Elamine

We had a great experience with Ben. He really took the time to get to know us, what we value and what we were looking for in a home. Most importantly, it seemed to us that Ben was in the realtor business for the right reasons - to provide valuable information and thus help us throughout the biggest investment decision of our lives. It never felt that it was all about the money. Ben explained everything in detail, kept us well informed at all times, and was quick to act when an opportunity presented itself. We always felt in great hands and would recommend him anytime. - Nicole Schaefer

What an amazing experience. Ben was very patient walking us through all the steps, helping us with challenges and always available when needed (no matter what time or day of the week. I would highly recommend Ben and his team of professionals. - Pilar Gimenez Melo

I've used Ben Sweet and Associates a number of times, and I have always been completely at e ase and satisfied with their service. Recently, in the midst of a global pandemic, the challenges seemed insurmountable. I live part-time in the US so you can imagine the challenges (quarantining, having my house 'show ready', etc.) we faced trying to sell my home in Calgary. Ben was fantastic, going above and beyond, every step of the way. I had no choice but to ask for extra service and Ben never hesitated. I can't recommend Ben and his team enough! - Blythe Ibatuan

Ben was great! This is the first house that I have ever purchased and I feel very confident in my buying decision thanks to him. Ben was very knowledgeable about the various neighbourhoods that we visited and he provided a lot of good insight on the houses that we viewed. He also ensured that the houses we looked met my needs and fit my lifestyle. If you are looking for a real estate agent, I highly recommend Ben. - Rhys Witzke

Ben made every aspect of both selling and buying a home very easy, stress free and transparent. He always provided an honest, no pressure - professional opinion and was willing to work endlessly to ensure his clients were happy. If you have even the smallest inkling of hiring a realtor, save yourself the time and energy searching and go with Ben - you'll be glad you did! - Kyle Fode

We are so glad we called Ben to sell our house. He is very professional and knowledgeable. He sold our house in 5 days for more than asking price!! He was available for texts and emails anytime and was willing to meet with us whenever we asked. He made it painless and actually a bit fun! We would highly recommend Ben ti anyone wanting to buy or sell their home. He is the best!!!! - Michelle Thurlow
