Quite simply, my partner and I wouldn't have been able to secure the kind of accomodation we were looking for without Gavin's help. This was our first time renting in the city, we had a very specific set of requirements and a hard deadline... so stakes were high.
Gavin wasn't the only agent I initially contacted when I was looking for condos, but it quickly became clear that he was the professional I wanted to work with. I'd like to give 3 reasons why we credit Gavin personally with helping us find a great condo.
Care & follow-through: Gavin volunteered to remotely view properties for us, always putting in high-effort in visiting those locations and going through every one of our questiond
1) Professionalism and rapport: My favorite quality in Gavin is how he strikes a great balance between being professional as well as candid/friendly with us, with one never coming at the expense of the other. As someone who also works with clients, I can tell you this isn't easy to pull off, and many agents get the balance wrong. Gavin would always deliver on-time, from planned viewings, prospect proposals and ongoing advice as we narrowed down our list. He was instantly approachable yet thorough, making us feel comfortable in using his time, and we never got the impression he was pushing us to settle on an offer quickly.
2) Attention to detail: Gavin clearly had a wealth of knowledge that allowed him to advise us on the most minute details to take into consideration as we went through the process. This included not just aspects of the condos themselves, but the fine print in renting in the city, what kind of buildings to look out for, how to navigate contracts and terms etc. This was invaluable knowledge for us coming to tghe city for the first time. He was our single point of contact and proved to be spot-on on all his advice.
3) Care & follow-through: Gavin volunteered to remotely view properties for us, always putting in high-effort in visiting those locations and going through every one of our questions, even offering to help outside the 9-5. This was key, as was his proactive offer to help us review the contrat and get smoothly settled-in during and after deal closure. It wasn't just about the deal for Gavin - we knew we could reach out for his help or advice weeks later, which is more care than I've ever received for a simple lease.
Gavin going above and beyond was a major reason why we managed to secure an ideal offer, and when the need arises I'd surely work with him again.
