We live in Northern BC and became interested in lake front real estate in the Okanagan. Friends of ours recommended Amanda as they had recently bought a property on the lake through Amanda and were really impressed with how hard she worked for them. We reached out to Amanda and she gave us an excellent overview of the market and, thru discussions with her, helped us narrow down what we were looking for. She then began sending us postings that fit what we were looking for and had regular communications with us regarding our thoughts on various properties. When a property struck our interest she was quick to find out additional information, and as we were a 10 hour drive away, she would check out the property for us if she was not familiar with it already. We were in the Okanagan visiting family and Amanda made the time to meet with us in person and get to know us better. She continued to keep us informed as new listings came up. When a particularly interesting property in Vernon came up she immediately arranged a walkthrough with us on FaceTime so we could see the house and property. Working with her team we put in a successful offer on the property and began working thru the due diligence. This particular house was relatively old and there were many obstacles to work through. We felt that Amanda always kept our best interest in mind throughout this process. She had a fantastic network of contacts (contractors, home inspector, property managers, etc) that were available on short notice to help us navigate the obstacles that presented themselves, and she was very good at contacting other realtors, city officials, and government officials to ensure that we got the information we needed and the answers to any questions that we had. She was always available when we needed her and we definitely felt that she, and her team, worked very hard for us. Amanda continued to work for us even after we got possession of the property and completed the final walkthrough of the property with the former owner and got the keys on our behalf. I'm sure the fact that we were doing all of this from a distance made Amanda's job more difficult, although she certainly never made us feel that way, and she willingly found ways to make this work. We found Amanda to be very easy to work with, fun, friendly, knowledgeable, passionate about her role, hard working, with a high degree of integrity. We were extremely pleased with our experience buying a home thru her and would not hesitate to recommend her to any prospective clients.
