THE best Realtor I have ever worked with. We appreciated Fil's healthy personality, his knowledge of our special community's circumstances (on Indigenous leased land), was honest, provided an interior decorator and was super responsive on all texts, emails and legal documents associated with our sale. Fil and his company, Vantage Realty exceeded our expectations. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. - Candace Weimer

A family member recommended Fil to us and we couldn’t be happier. As first time home owners, Fil walked us through every step and made us feel very comfortable. I would highly recommend Fil as your real estate agent! - Toni Stronach-Hesp

We are beyond thrilled with the experience we had working with Fil! From start to finish, he absolutely blew us away with his dedication, hard work, and professionalism. Fil and Vantage West’s marketing plan was nothing short of exceptional. Thanks to their strategic approach, our home sold in just days! What really stood out was Fil’s constant communication. He kept us informed every step of the way, making sure we felt confident and supported throughout the entire process. His responsiveness and attention to detail truly made all the difference. Fil’s team also deserves a huge shout-out for their phenomenal communication and support. It was clear from the start that we were in great hands. If you’re looking for a realtor who is committed, knowledgeable, and will exceed your expectations, look no further than Fil. We can’t recommend him highly enough! - Brittany

Fil Stryhereck was an excellent, professional, very knowledgeable, well communicated and experienced a realtor. Fil has lots of knowledge and expertise leading to successful transaction. Fil provided excellent advice on staging and marketing etc. His relationship in the community and his amazing sales skills are what helped my house sold. He was able to sell my house during slow and difficult market. Fil did excellent job selling my house located Upper Mission Kelowna. I’am very impressed and delighted with his work and service. Especially most the time l never there in the house. I was very busy work out and travel abroad US etc. He prepared everything and make things happen. From the beginning moment first time l meet and interview him, I know he will be the right realtor that will sell my house. He understand me so well and what must be done. Also, in September 2022 he sold my girlfriend and her husband house located in Glenmore Kelowna in 36 hours. I would highly recommend Fil and Vantage West Realty to anyone. Thank you so much All the best - Lisa Swanson

Always a pleasure working with Fil! He recently helped me get back into the Kelowna market and his expertise made all the difference. The place I ended up buying wasn’t even on my radar but Fil added it to the showing schedule and it turned out to be the perfect spot. When it’s time for the next upgrade, I’ll be sure to reach out to Fil again. - Emilie Poulin

First off, I rarely ever give a 5/5 or a 10/10. Everyone has room for improvement. That being said, IF I did give 5/5s Fil would get them. I have a property that is for a specific purpose and not generally looked at by the typical buyer. Normally this rental property on Academy Hill would be a hot item but with interest rates and the time of year investors, and Mom’s and Dad’s were few and far between for student housing accommodations. Based on comparables, we were well positioned to sell, and the first offer was a bit lower than expected. It turns out that was the best offer but that’s hindsight. For about 3weeks we had several quality showings then they practically stopped. Fil worked with me, and we modified the price and even then no action. Apparently, there was no activity on the hill for a while. My listing was coming due, and it was going off the market until the late winter/early spring 2025. Fil kept working on the property even without the listing and we did get a purchaser who unfortunately wasn’t fully qualified by the selling agent. Speaking with Fil I re-listed the property, and he kept pushing for showings and finally a new purchaser came and we sold firm a few weeks back closing in Jan 2025. The net result was a little lower than I was expecting but with the carrying costs and the hassle of having tenant trying to sell in the new year I was happy to see it firm up. From my experience, Fil is definitely a dedicated agent who works diligently. Over my life I’ve been a part of dozens of deals, and Fil is likely the hardest working agent I’ve come across. Thanks Fil. Cheers, Stephen - Stephen O'Brien

The first time I engaged Fil was in 2023 when I was handling the sale of my uncle’s home in Kelowna. As I reside in Alberta and am not a Kelowna resident, I started my realtor search on this site to find a realtor to use. I had actually reached out to 3 other realtors from 3 different brokerages prior to reaching out to Fil. I had a specific interview list and requirements I expected of both the realtor and their associated brokerage firm, and the first 3 realtors I had reached out to connect with (also found on this same site) did not satisfy what I was asking for. In other words, they were selling me their services, and not listening to what I was needing. Fil (and Vantage as the brokerage firm) listened to my specific needs and agreed to work with them. Fil was extremely professional, provided sound advice, worked hard to handled some of the unique issues with the property. He delivered top quality service in all areas to finalized the sale. To me, being a top realtor is more than selling to me to get the engagement, it’s listening, being honest and practical along with the providing the services. Fil was all that. I just listed my condo in Kelowna very recently and there was zero question about who my realtor was going to be, as Fil is top quality in my assessment. The advice, posting and early busy activity on the unit are proving to me again that my selection of Fil will be worth every penny. - Ryan Chong

Fil and his team made selling my condo a truly simple, stress free and satisfying endeavour. Fil’s professional team was easy to connect with any and all questions on every subject. The way they staged then presented my condo made it irresistible to buyers and got my first offer within 48 hours!! And yes we ended up selling to that buyer. This is the only team to use when selling your home. I recommend them 100% - Benjamin Hefford

Fil was incredibly easy to work with, he communicated very effectively and made the whole process so smooth. In the future I would definitely work with Fil again and recommend him to anyone needing to buy or sell a property. - Dylan

I am from the Fraser Valley, and began using Vantage West property management team (Chrissy) through a friends’ recommendation a few years ago. Due to unforeseen circumstances, this year I needed to sell my condo asap, unfortunately in an unstable real estate market. Fil and his team were able to successfully sell the condo AND work with their Vantage West property management team to assist us in relocating my tenants in a timely fashion so it would not distrust the sale of the property. Which they were able to execute. Simply amazing what they magaed to accomplish in such a short period of time. From day 1 to the completion of the sale, the Vantage West organization has been first class all the way with their services, communications, and professionalism. Whether you are in town or out of town, Vantage West is THE BEST, and I confidently recommend them to anyone in the market!! And recommend anyone working in the market, be more like Vantage West!! - Mike MacIntosh

We reached out to Vantage West last spring as they had featured a property that we were interested in viewing. We were connected with Fil and it couldn't have been a better recommendation. Fil patiently showed us several properties and we discussed strategy to prepare for selling in the following year. He kept in contact with us and set us up with an online website showing suitable properties coming on market. This spring we were ready to sell but wanted to ensure our choice of agent knew how to navigate in this difficult market. We interviewed 3 others and were satisfied that Fil was indeed the one we wanted to entrust with the sale of our home. We received a solid offer 2 1/2 weeks after listing and closed a week later. We really feel that Fil's networking abilities, his negotiating skills and marketing made the difference in getting a quick sale with so much competition. The advice we received throughout was spot on and we couldn't be happier with the excellent service we received from Fil and the entire Vantage West team. We highly recommend Fil to anyone looking for a competent, knowledgeable and personable professional focused on getting results. - Judy and Len Zachary
