Sept 11 2025 We are currently working with Mr. Joel now. It is unusual in that I don't do reviews until we finish buying a unit. Am making the exception in this case. This is our 2nd purchase. So not a super experience buyer. We will surely use Joel to sell our current one perhaps in 2 years. I think the litmus test is this: do I feel and believe the realtor is looking out for my best interest. Malcolm Gladwell wrote a piece stating that often ... many realtors aren't slotted in this category. I find Joel responsive either through a telephone call or text or email. Has over 30 years of industry experience. He is worldly and brings an air of leadership and respect when he shows up for a viewing. Though I find 'honesty' refreshing in us humans but my default position in life is to scan for deception in others (as well as myself) through their words or actions. I found Joel honest in what he can do for us or what he cannot. Another quality that Joel has is that he meets the client where they are at. Joel talks to us and find out things about our interests, my my wife (wolfie) do for work etc etc. I think all top realtor or top folks in any field ... know and practice this ... relational ... it is all about relationship and how to connect with people where they are at and know their outlooks, hopes, fears, and wants. He not speak to us (his clients) but he speak to the seller realtor (developers realtor). He probe them and use active listening and then joust and squeeze them for purposeful information. That's the differences between having a realtor who shows up and smile aka a body there and having a master realtor work the crowd and scan and evaluate the scene and scenario. And afterward advises and guides you. Our first and only realtor before Joel is a very nice person. We wanted someone this time to be assertive and offensive and most of all - who looks out for our best interest. So far we only looked at 2 condo units ... Popolo and Grafia (my wife calls them Mafia by mistake ... but she might not he far off from the Freudian slip there lol). We put in an offer and received a counter from one of them. Also, I asked Joel for a mortgage broker referral and we are using his guy for this deal. Will post update if any. - Phillip Vu-Tran

There really isn't enough I can say about the service we received from Joel. We tested the market in June even though our set closing date was November 30th and with one offer that didn't go through he recommended we taking it off the market and try again in September. Within a couple of week of doing that we had an offer and sold within a few days. We were so happy. He even took into consideration that he was going on vacation and added another realtor to take care of the deal while he was away. Steve was fantastic and the transition was so smooth. They are so professional and wonderful to work with, we cannot say enough amazing things about them. We highly recommend them, over and over again. - Alina Kouneva Tremblay

This was my second purchase with Joel and I would never work with anyone else. Joel made buying a condo in a market with almost no inventory in my price range a breeze. This purchase is nothing short of a miracle, and testament of Joel’s exceptional skill to listen for my needs, apply due diligence to the search, and effectively communicate with his large network of colleagues. Joel’s number one objective is to be of service to his clients, and he applied great attention to every step of the process. Joel is both easy going and fiercely effective. Can’t recommend him enough. - Klara Manhal

Joel is a very knowlegeable and conscientious realtor. He is very accessible any time of day and is willing to work hard on your behalf to secure your home.

Joel provided excellent advirtising of my property, he responded to my questions promptly, and even fed my cat during the showing process when I was not able to be there on business. Very personable. - Scott Jorsvick

I’m blessed to have Joel. There’s no rating that can encompass his value and impact on me and my family, This rating should be a billion stars. Our situation was complicated and Joel was of complete service and caused miracles to happen. I’m forever in gratitude. - Manny Abecia

Joel helped my parents purchase their condo several years ago, and I decided to request his assistance when it came time for me to do the same. I'm so happy that I chose to do so because, as a first-time buyer with very little practical knowledge of the Vancouver real estate market, Joel helped me navigate the entire process with ease. He provided me with excellent advice every step of the way, and was always super prompt to reply to my (many) questions. Knowing how competitive the market is in the Lower Mainland, I anticipated the process of finding and then successfully purchasing a property to take around a year - but with Joel's guidance I was able to successfully find and buy a great condo around four months after I first started looking. I love my new place and I'm super glad to have been able to work with Joel - would definitely recommend and work with him again. - Ningxin

I have been assisted by Joel over 4 transactions already. I bought and sold twice with him and every time has been a successful transaction. Joel is very knowledgeable of any type of Vancouver real estate and is not shy to advise in favor or against a property, based on aspects you may have not noticed at first. His experience is very broad and his attentiveness and work ethic/standards very high. I would always recommend Joel if you need a ready to go, professional and experienced real estate. Thanks Joel for all your help and dedication thus far! - Paolo Rubini

We were very happy to use Joel for our home search. He had helped my partner purchase and sell two previous apartments. Joel was proactive in getting us viewings and being honest in his assessment of different properties. We found our home in a short period of time. Thank you Joel! - Anita Yang

After 5 real estate transactions with Joel Korn as my representative, I cannot say enough about him. If you are fortunate enough to see this testimonial, do not let this realtor pass you by. This humble, unassuming man is a rare gem. He operates with the utmost integrity and professionalism, not to mention sheer mastery of communication and negotiation. He goes above and beyond for his clients and best of all, he really listens. I am grateful to know him and I’ll be doing many more real estate transactions with him in the future. -Crystal Redlich, Vancouver - Crystal C Redlich

I am a first time buyer and was a little nervous about the whole process. My worries disappeared quickly when we hired Joel as our realtor. Joel is professional, has great attention to detail and had my best interests at heart. I would not hesitate to hire Joel again in the future. - Laurel McLaughlin

Joel was very thorough and insightful in his research. Always on time and prepared with valid data that helped us make a decision. He was even so kind to pick us up from the airport since we were flying in from another city. - B Singh & S kaur

My family have been working with Joel for the last 6 years. We found him very knowledgeable and responsible. He always put our interest first and be able to give us best advice! We will not hesitate to work with him again in the future! - Tony Fung

Joel helped my wife and I find the perfect home for our family. Every weekend we were out with Joel looking at open houses and private showings. And almost every other week we made an offer in a market that was heating up with multiple offers and bidding wars. Finally one night Joel spotted the home we were looking for. His quick action and understanding of the market was responsible for getting us an early showing and an accepted offer before the open house that weekend. - Dick Chan

Joel was very knowledgeable about all the different levels of real estate, condo's, townhouses, and single dwelling homes. During the time of selling, there were some ups and downs in the market but Joel helped see me through it. He picked me up from the skytrain and drove me around to see many places. He was always available after normal work hours and weekends. My experience with Joel was far better then some other realtors I have used in the past. - Trevor Cheung

Joel is easily one of the best realtors working in Metro-Vancouver. In a competitive market where condos were selling fast, Joel was able to find me my perfect fit and it even has an ocean view. Joel not only brokered the sale but served as an invaluable resource for questions I had about properties, and went above and beyond to understand the history and strata of the place. I am now settled in and couldn’t be happier. - Klara Manhal

Joel has been with me through thick abs thin. Bought two apartments and sold one with him. He helped us buy in a market when it seemed impossible to win a bid. Joel has been fantastic. - Mark Enns

I’ve done real estate transactions with 4 different realtors in the past 4 years and Joel Korn is the best there is. I highly recommend him. He’s the best listener, he’s responsive, responsible and highly skillful in both acquiring properties and selling properties. I’m just grateful that a realtor like him exists. I can’t say enough about him. - Crystal Redlich

Joel was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He provided insight on different areas of Vancouver that he recommended for our family based on our needs and wants.

We would highly recommend Joel to anyone looking for a quality realtor. - Gary Singh

Joel is truly a pro . He is patient and thorough in every phase of listing, marketing, and eventual sale of the property.
