We have used Lorne before when buying and selling in Victoria and knew he had the knowledge and expertise in this market to sell our condo. He gave us realistic expectations and guided us through another successful sale. - Dale & Kathy MacKie

Lorne made himself available to us on short notice and followed through with all aspects of our recent home purchase. We had used Lorne in a previous home purchase and find that he is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and resourceful. We have no hesitation in recommending Lorne as a buyer's or seller's agent. - Licia and Mike and Paddison

Words cannot describe how happy I am with all the honest advise Lorne gave me .He found me a perfect dream home. I would recommend Lorne to everyone I know with no hesitation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. - Bernice Tortorelli

“If you are looking for an experienced, honest, dedicated, hard-working real estate agent to assist you in your home search and purchase in the greater Victoria area, (and really, who isn’t) then you cannot do better than Lorne Tuplin. Lorne recently guided my wife and I through the process of purchasing a new home and we were extremely satisfied with Lorne’s services. We were on a tight schedule and we live in the lower mainland so coordinating viewings and negotiations was challenging. Lorne did an excellent job finding out what our needs were first, so he didn’t waste our time showing us houses that wouldn’t work for us. Also he listened very well and knew when to offer advice and when to let us think on our own. After two trips to the island we had found our new home and completed the negotiations. Lorne didn’t stop there though, after the agreement was signed he continued to work with us to make sure the deal went through smoothly and that all of our interests were looked after. Finally he came to visit at our new home to bring us a thoughtful gift and to make sure everything had gone well, which I’m pleased to say it had, thanks to Lorne!” - Richard Taylor

This was the best experience we have ever had in a sale of a house. Lorne had real expertise to list and then help us buy our townhouse. He was professional, knowledgeable and also very patient answering any questions or concerns we had. Thank you Lorne! - Mary Burgess

Lorne went out of his way to accommodate my needs and wants while looking at many properties, all of which fit my specs, but none of which I wanted to buy, until he found the perfect condo for me. His after-sale service has also been great. Helping me with merchants and services I need in a new-to-me community. - Audrey Taylor

I enjoyed working with Lorne and would recommend him to family and friends.. - Catherine Johnston

We had an exceptional experience working with Lorne to purchase a home. He was very responsive, excellent market knowledge and easy to work with. I would highly recommend using his services in purchasing or selling a home. - Karla Young

We had 3 agents price out our home for sale. The first agent said "I can get you $720,000", the second agent said "Let's start at low $700,000 and see if we can get a bidding war" and the last agent was Lorne, who said "You have a fantastic yard and garden. This increases the home value significantly and I can sell it to a garden lover for $820,000". We were so happy that Lorne saw the value in our garden that we have put so much love into. And guess what? He did sell it for exactly $820,000. Thanks so much Lorne! We also appreciated your super positive attitude and your recommendations for all the other contacts needed to complete the sale. - Rosalyn Van Dyk

Lorne Tuplin was referred to us by friends when we first started thinking about buying a home. We were first time home buyers and weren’t really sure what we wanted in a house or where we wanted to look. Lorne was incredibly patient and took our lead, providing assistance in explaining the process, making suggestions, and keeping us up to date with the real estate market. When we were finally ready to get serious - there was no delay, Lorne met with us right away. It was clear that he listened to us and knew what was important to us. He didn’t waste our time and he was incredibly flexible when our meetings and viewings often included our kids. We never felt pressured or rushed, we knew that he was there for us and not just to “make a deal”. When the time came to put the offer on our house, he was efficient and fair and advocated for us. His attention to detail and willingness to help did not go unnoticed and he really went above and beyond to ensure we were well cared for. He was present for every walk through and every inspection and answered our countless questions quickly and without hesitation. We would not hesitate to recommend Lorne when buying or selling your home. We cannot adequately express our gratitude for his kindness, knowledge, professionalism and humour throughout this process. - Sandra & James

Lorne is helpful, professional and knowledgeable. He always responded to all our questions and concerns, and in a timely fashion. We have dealt with many realtors and Lorne is one of the best we have had the pleasure of working with - thanks Lorne! - Leslie Y

Lorne took the time to establish our needs, responded quickly to opportunities, gave good advice on conditions and value of properties. Trustworthy and would use him again - Keith Linger

Exceptional, professional, and client-centred! I can't say enough about Lorne Tuplin. He was attentive to all our buying and relocation needs. When I first contacted him over two years ago with an expression of interest to move to Victoria, he quickly established search criteria for a suitable home and consistently kept me updated over several months. When we finally moved to search for a house, he immediately made himself available and addressed all our inquiries. Thanks to Lorne, we quickly found the perfect home and he has continued to facilitate our re-location through information about the community and services. Lorne consistently provided outstanding service and went well beyond the call of duty. He is the best! - Marian Harymann
