thank you to Troy Gibson of REMAX of Nanaimo on the sale of my home.  Troy was my listing agent and was representing me on the sale of my home.  I had an old character home in Nanaimo.  The building inspection by the Buyer discovered a buried old tank on my property.  I am elderly and not experienced with issues like this, I had no idea what to do. Troy took control of the situation and arranged for the remediation company to assist in the extraction of the oil tank.  The cost to remove was aprox. $25,000 and was completely unexpected. Troy was able to renegotiate on my behalf an additional $10,000 from the Buyer and he took extra steps to contact my agent in Toronto a transaction that Troy had nothing to do with and pushed for the agent to renegotiate the purchase price and got that reduced by $10,000.  In the end my cost to remove the tank was only $5000.  I am forever grateful to have this experienced, caring individual look after me.  I can’t say enough good things about this man. I would highly recommend to anyone and there is not a better person to represent you on any real estate transaction.  He is a good person that cares and take pride in his work.  Thank you again Troy.   Marie.
