We had a first rate experience buying our condo through Laura and her daughter Laney Bourque. We had one deal through before we found the right one. They were patient and we always felt like they had our backs and were not just trying to complete a sale. They worked hard and so did we, but we had fun and got a great result. We highly recommend Laura and we will call her for sure if the time comes again. - Rob Stassen

Laura and Laney were fantastic. We are new to the market and they really helped us focus in on what we wanted in a home. They also made sure to point out things that we might have missed were we looking by ourselves. They always replied to our emails and questions promptly, and made the process so much easier. We really felt supported during our search and the whole process. Definitely recommend both Laura and Laney! - C Patterson

I have used Laura and her team as a buyer's agent before and have had great success finding the right fit. This is the first time as a seller's agent. She sold the property the same weekend that it went live (even though similar properties had sit on the market for weeks). She knows how to price properly and et things done. She is always available for advise and to answer questions and she knows how to get things done. i have recommended her for years and several friends have worked with her, all of us happy customers. Can't recommend enough. - C Campbell

Laura was very supportive, helpful, and patient sifting through dozens of listings to find the perfect home for my family. She provided guidance and insight that gave me confidence in my decision in the buying and selling process. - David Benson

Laura is wonderful to work with and is prompt with all correspondence. When it comes to property comparison, Laura is extremely diligent, presenting all the information a seller would need in order to make decisions. You can't go wrong working with Laura! Such a pleasure to work with! - Pamela Duncan

This is the third house I have purchased using Laura. Think that speaks for itself! Laura is very very timely in her response time which I really appreciate. She is knowledgeable about the local market and excels in her profession. She genuinely wants you to find the best house for you and makes the whole experience enjoyable with her friendly professional approach. - Victoria

Laura is amazing! She helped us purchase our first home and made the experience as easy and seamless as possible. She is extremely professional, friendly, FAST (always responds right away to emails/texts/calls), and an absolute pleasure to work with. Being first time home buyers we really appreciated that she always took the time to look into the listings we were interested in and bring up potential issues - she really makes sure her buyers are fully informed. With her guidance and expertise we waited until we found the perfect place to put in our first ever offer and it was accepted. Thank you Laura for helping us purchase our dream home! - Bosa Dosenovic

I met Laura 10 years ago and she sold my property quickly and for double what I paid. When I found myself wanting to sell I knew exactly who to call. Laura is professional, and certainly knows her stuff. She is on point. Within 2 days of calling her I had pictures taken and was listed. She is amazing and would highly recommend her. You won’t be disappointed. - JoAnne McHutchion

Laura came to us recommended by two other friends. We were first time home buyers, and Laura was able to understand our needs, guide us through the process, and calm us down where we would panic. She was always responsive and professional. I would have no reservations with hiring Laura again when we are in the market again. Thank you Laura! - Erik & Kim

Excellent service all around. Selling your home can be stressful but we were confident Laura was working as hard as she could to get us competitive offers. She is definitely recommended. - Grahame

Selling a home is stressful at the best of times. Selling a home during a pandemic is even more stressful as everything is online and at arm’s length: the listing, the offers, the contract. Laura’s expertise and professionalism eased the stress and made the whole process smooth and easy. Laura spent the most time of all the realtors on the market evaluation “walk through” with me. She didn’t rush, and she really looked closely at our home. She followed COVID-19 protocol completely and put me at ease. Laura asked questions, and took notes. She was so kind and so intuitive. Laura really listened to us. We needed a selling price that would enable us to purchase a home without adding on a new mortgage as we are both retired now; we wanted to downsize, but not into a condo or townhouse. Laura priced our home exactly right, and it sold quickly for the full asking price. Laura went through the offer with us slowly and carefully, step by step, clause by clause, making sure we understood everything. She pointed out things we needed to be aware of, suggested conditions that would benefit and protect us and generally made the sale stress-free and easy. It was amazing how she was really looking out for us the entire time, all the while not rushing, being patient and never pushy. She also has a lovely sense of humour, which was greatly appreciated when things became overwhelming and stressful. We can’t say enough positive things about our experience with Laura. She is knowledgeable, professional, trustworthy, kind and thoughtful. Every question or concern we had, no matter how small or silly, Laura handled with expertise and kindness. She knows the market, knows the business and looks out for her clients. We were so lucky to find Laura and know that the sale of our home went smoothly and quickly because of her. We recommend Laura wholeheartedly! Thank you, Laura! - Pat and Daryl

We have known Laura for a few years now, but had never used her services.  Due to her level of professionalism and friendly attitude, we had recommended her to some family and friends, who were all very happy with her skills.  We were extremely happy with the sale of our house, it sold very quickly and without any issues.  We would definitely use Laura again.   - Brent & Connie

I met Laura last month when I was looking for my new home. She was the seller's agent and I was a buyer with no agent.(I have a real estate background and I met and worked with so many realtors in Victoria.) She is VERY experienced, knowledgeable, prompt, proactive and efficient. I can tell why she is the top realtor! She also has a very good personality. I want to say thank you again Laura. You deserve more than 5 stars!!  - J. Jeong

Laura was able to help me obtain my dream home. She is an amazing person and an amazing realtor, all of my communications with her were responded promptly and easily. I would have no issue recommending her to anybody looking to sell and/or buy. She was able to price my condo appropriately and it sold in one day. It was not easy to find a new home for me due to limited supply and quite frankly Laura handled my impatience and near panic with her great sense of humour and positive attitude. In the end I not only found a place but I found my dream home. Thank you Laura. - Angella Thompson

Laura is an absolute pleasure to work with and we were so glad to have her in our corner while buying our first home. Laura walked us through every step in the process and always responded to our questions quickly, professionally, and with good humour. She patiently showed us many houses and in the end we have ended up with a first home that exceeded our expectations. We would recommend Laura to anyone and would not hesitate to work with her again. - Kate Phillips

We are so pleased to have Laura in our corner while purchasing our first home. She is kind, honest and patient. Laura is definitely an expert in her field and it truly shows. She really looked out for our best interest by ensuring we had all the information (pros and cons) to make the best decision with zero sales pressure. She was quick to respond to our messages and extremely prompt in organizing showings. She has an immense wealth of knowledge and is clearly passionate about her work and her clients. Thank you for helping us find our perfect home! - Stephanie Fischer

We expected buying and selling a house to be stressful, but we didn't expect the added stress of doing it in the middle of a pandemic! I'm so glad we had Laura on our side, guiding us through the whole process. Laura was an open and honest communicator with us throughout the process, and gave us solid advice that focused on our interests and not just on making a quick sale to get her commission. She was exceptionally responsive to anything we had to say, and set up showings for us on a moment's notice. We initially listed our place at the beginning of March, and when showings began to feel unsafe due to the pandemic, she was the first to suggest taking our place off the market to wait it out. She was super accommodating, and when we did relist in May, we felt comfortable with the precautions she put in place. I would recommend Laura without hesitation, and I'd also happily just hang out with her because she's super nice and funny! - Chanelle G

Laura got a house in a very tight and competitive housing market for a reasonable price. She goes above and beyond for her clients and is worth every penny. We wouldn’t have our perfect single family home without Laura. - nathan warden

We are first time buyers and new to Victoria and were definitely apprehensive about the entire process. However, dealing with Laura was an absolute pleasure and she guided us through the entire process which put us at ease. Despite her busy schedule, she was always available in case we had any questions, very responsive and extremely prompt in organizing and accompanying us for showings. Laura definitely has the best interest of her client's in mind - She always gave us her frank opinion on properties when we had questions on various issues that propped up which ensured that we didnt make any hasty decisions. She kept reassuring us that we would find the right home for our family and true to her word we finally did! Thank you so much Laura for guiding us every step of the way - Gazala and Nadeem - Nadeem Kajiji

Laura was a pleasure to work with! She helped my husband and I purchase our first home and made the whole process a positive experience. She is knowledgeable and shares her expertise which made us feel comfortable each step of the way. Laura was readily available to answer many questions by email or phone and she is personable. On her day off she took time to show a condo to my husband and I that we loved (and ended up buying!). She knew how important it was for us to see it asap because we loved it so much and homes sell fast in Victoria. She always gives her honest opinion and had our best interests in mind which we really appreciated. We will be contacting Laura again in the future and are so grateful for her truly amazing service. - Michelle & Dave Daley

Laura helped us purchase our first home and made it such a seamless and positive experience. She was always available to answer our many questions, and ensured we got the exact home we wanted and love. One of the most important aspects with noticed while working with Laura was her honesty. She truly wanted us to get a home that included everything we wanted and wouldn't let us settle for less, and we are very thankful for that. - Kristen Calverley

We've used Laura for 3 real estate transactions. Laura is amazing, knowledgeable, and always available to help. Several times in the middle of the night my wife and I would be fretting over a real estate decision, and we would send Laura an email with questions. Within a few minutes we would get an answer. We love Laura because she always gives her honest opinion and truly wants to find the right home for you. - Jesal Shah

This is the second time I have worked with Laura and will continue using her services. The biggest differentiating factor with Laura is that she is responsive, doesn't matter the time of the day, or whether it is a weekend. She is honest in her opinion. She doesn't push for a sale, she ensures that the buyer has all the facts (the good and the bad) to make the decision themselves, and she is absolutely honest with her opinion. Laura is also incredibly knowledgeable about various areas, buildings, and stratas. Have a question about an area, and Laura will not hesitate to give her honest opinion. Lastly, Laura is just a very approachable and likeable person. Her professionalism combined with her friendly approach makes it a dream to work with her. Highly recommended agent. - Abhinav Rai

I am so grateful Laura was there to guide me through the purchase of my first home. She is a true expert and shares her knowledge so that you're comfortable with every step of the process. I'll never forget the truly amazing service. - Olivia

This is the second time I have worked with Laura to sell and buy a home. I also worked with her while in a tenancy situation where the home I rented was put up for sale. In all cases Laura was professional, knowledgeable and seemed to know exactly what I wanted and needed. One thing I particularly appreciate in my dealings with Laura is how responsive she is. Communication is immediate- I don’t know how she does it but she always gets back to me right away! She offers great advice and knows her stuff! I would not hesitate to work with Laura again and would recommend her to my friends and family. - Victoria Scott

Laura was truly outstanding. She provided a very professional service. At all times, she gave clear and useful advice, encouragement and helped us make decisions quickly and decisively. Thanks to Laura, we now have our dream home. We recommend her wholeheartedly. - Alison Moran

Laura is great to work with. She has helped us sell two residential properties and buy one. She is responsive and knowledgeable, and great at her job. I know I can always count on Laura to give her best effort and advice, and to give her honest opinion. It's been a real pleasure to work with Laura and I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. - Deborah Herbert

Finding a home in Victoria, while currently living out of province, could have been a very difficult experience. We worked with other realtors before contacting Laura - mostly due to her high ratings on this site. Our first meeting with Laura showed us clearly what a thorough, knowledgeable and honest realtor we had selected. Laura takes her job very seriously and shows, in every interaction, that her client's needs are top priority. She is very straight forward and will let you know when she sees something in a house that may be concerning. She does this despite the fact that bringing up these issues may affect her ability to close the deal. She is also incredibly knowledgeable about different areas in Victoria and has a huge list of resources that she makes available to her clients. So helpful for buyers who are new to the area! Since we were out of province, Laura handled all the coordination for our inspections and was extremely responsive during the entire process (despite the deal closing over the holidays!). We have a lot of respect for Laura and her approach to business. She is diligent, available and just an overall great person. She is completely on your side throughout the entire process. Such refreshing client service! Our recommendation couldn't be any higher (we would give her six stars if we could!!) Thanks for helping us find our dream home Laura! Lisa & Darryl - Lisa Fonagy

Laura is an extremely knowledgeable, responsive agent that knows her position inside and out, and always goes the extra mile in terms of guidance and communication for each step of the buying process. Laura made the purchasing of our first home so easy and stress-free. Knowing that we had someone on our side with a wealth of knowledge and support was extremely helpful and for that we cannot thank her enough! I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Laura to everyone we know. So happy to have utilized Laura’s services which ultimately made our first home purchasing experience a smooth and happy one. Thank you Laura! - Rhiannon H.

Laura was a tremendous help throughout the selling and buying of our home. She gave us great advice on how to get the best value on our sale, subsequently we sold our property quickly and for a price we were happy with. For our purchase Laura used her insight to help us find the right house for us, steering us clear of properties that could have become problematic. We highly recommend Laura to anyone who wants a knowledgeable, hard working and helpful agent. - E. Lee

Laura's knowledge of the market and of the condos in the area is unmatched. Laura never hesitated to quickly answer all of my questions and always reassured me. She even went the extra mile for me at times. I would not consider any other realtor if I am in the market again. Thank you Laura for getting me in my home! - A. Thompson

Laura's knowledge of the condo market in Victoria is absolutely unparalleled. I bought my condo through Laura in 2018 and didn't even consider calling anyone else when it came time to sell. The fact that I was able to sell less than 12 months after buying without taking a loss speaks to Laura's ability to give really solid advice that results in a solid investment. I subsequently had to buy property in another province and lamented every second that Laura couldn't act as my realtor there too. I can't recommend her highly enough - she is incredibly efficient, patient, and brings a depth of knowledge that most realtors just can't provide. She seems to know every detail of every condo building in the entire city and is able to make sure you only buy into a building of good value. I also felt that she negotiated hard for me when I eventually sold my unit. - Katharina Clausius

Laura was really great to work with. She pointed out issues both small and large with every property that we looked at and gave us lots of solid advice. We highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future! - K.P
