We are so happy that everything worked out for you so quickly, considering the market conditions this last year! It was truly the ideal outcome! We loved having the opportunity to serve you!
Working with Simon Ward and Riely Rodrigues at Vantage West has been a real pleasure. Simon helped me find the perfect home. I was moving to Kelowna from another province and before we met in person, we spoke many times. Simon sent me listings for a couple a months before my trip to Kelowna so that I had a better sense of the market and what was available. I wasn't expecting to be able to find a place right away, but that's what happened. A week after I accepted an offer on my place in Ontario, I flew to Kelowna. In two days, I found my dream home. Simon and Riely helped me through all the stages of the purchase. The procedures were a bit different from where I was from. They were patient and quick to respond to my many questions. They also had helpful suggestions about practical things, like converting my drivers license or where to by a mattress. Riely sent me frequent emails to guide me through the various steps and combed through tons of strata documents. Their help didn't end after I moved in. Simon lent me a camping mattress so that I did not have to sleep on the floor. He lent me tools and spent a few hours helping me with my door lock. Simon and Riely make a great team and I am so grateful for their help! - Jody M
Reply: Thanks So much for all these kind words Jody ! It was a Pleasure having the opportunity to serve you and help with the transition to a new province! We are thrilled to hear you are Loving your New Place!
Simon was great to work with when looking to buy a place in the Okanagan. He is knowledgeable, reliable, and highly professional in all regards. Simon took the time to educate us on the local market and made us feel confident in our decision-making. We are thrilled with the property we successfully purchased. It was a seamless process from beginning to end. - Danielle Austin
Reply: Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience with us, Danielle! We are so happy everything worked out the way you wanted, and we hope you are getting settled into your new home! We are always here for you, and we really appreciate having you as a client
Simon has impressed us from the get go and has delivered far beyond our expectations. He cared to listen and understand our needs, putting our priorities ahead of everything in order to find the perfect place. We’re glad we hired him and look forward to working with him again soon. - Rafael Marques
Simon was on the ball from the first minute we signed with him. Always daily updating new buying opportunities and giving honest opinions on the properties we viewed. He definitely has a mind set for repeat business and shows passion for his craft. - Dustin Schmid
Reply: Thanks so much, Dustin, for taking the time to leave us this review! We appreciate the kind words! It was a pleasure to get to know you better and have the opportunity to serve you with your first purchase! We almost timed everything perfectly and got you a great deal on a great unit! Super excited for you, my friend!
Simon is a true professional. I highly recommend him. He's experienced. He knew what to suggest to get the most out of negotiation. I relied on his advice again and again, and I'm glad I did. - Victor Salmon
Simon is a true professional. He is very knowledgeable about the real estate market inlcuding market trends, lending rates, building trends, up and coming neighbourhoods. In addition Simon featured numerous items unique to my property that others had overlooked. This made the difference in a successful sale. - Rick Bondaroff
Reply: Thanks Rick ! It was an absolute pleasure to have the opportunity to serve you! I hope you are getting settled in! I appreciate you taking the time to leave us a great review! Always wishing you nothing but the very best !
Simon is the gold standard when it comes to a highly regarded, trustworthy realtor. His “honesty is the best policy” way of handling business was refreshing, and I had great confidence in his ability to represent me and my family during both buying and selling property. He will continue to be my #1 contact with anything real estate related in the Okanagan region. - Reid
Reply: Hey Reid thank you so much for Sharing your experience and leaving this great review! I really do sincerely appreciate the opportunity to serve you and your family, and look forward to helping create as much value as I can for you guys and continuing to help you with all your real estate needs in the Okanagan!
Simon found a previous seller with an expired listing and through his network of agents approached the sellers. The deal was fast and agreements were drawn and agreed to quickly. We were very happy with the purchase and the details of the deal he helped negotiate. - Rodger Cameron
Reply: Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us this review, Rodger! This always means a lot to us! We did definitely get a great deal on that off-market opportunity I’m glad everything worked out smoothly, and we were able to get you into a great new property. I appreciate having the opportunity to work with and serve your family!
My wife and I couldn’t thank Simon and the team at Vantage West enough. Their knowledge and communication made purchasing our first home as easy as it gets. We strongly recommend working with Simon and Riley they won’t disappoint. - Sam Brignall
Reply: Hey Sam thanks so much for these kind words, I’m super glad that you and your wife Came into our office that day looking for assistance. I appreciate having you guys as clients but I’m really glad that I made some good new friends as well! Thanks again for the kind words !
I wish there were more stars to provide Simon, Riely, and the Vantage West team! They truly went above and beyond from the very moment we stepped foot in the office until beyond our closing day. My partner and I are first time home buyers with little to no knowledge of the real estate world. Simon made the process easier to understand, as stress free as possible, and fun! If you’re looking for an agent who truly is looking out for your best interest, look no further. Simons honesty, integrity, and communication has made us life long clients and we look forward to working with Simon again - Brie Fisette
Reply: This means so much to us thank you so much for sharing your experience! It means so much to us that you wish there were more stars! We definetly had tons of fun! Sometimes I wish we didn’t find a place so quickly because I enjoyed spending that time with you guys Exploring our options and immersing ourselves in the market to find the best deal we possibly could! I appreciate your kind words and look forward to the next time we get together!
Simon and Riely were such a pleasure to deal with. I had no idea what I was doing when it came to selling a house and it was extra difficult selling a house from a distance. I'm on the coast and the house was in Peachland. They were always in contact with every step and made a every difficulty seem like no big deal. Simon is an awesome realtor and is extremely knowledgeable. He was on top of everything including market changes and strategies and it was a great pleasure dealing with him. Riley was an absolute gem to deal with and was so on the ball with everything. She went above and beyond at the end of the sale and they really nailed it right at the end with the tight time constraints. I recommend them and will look them up in the future if I relocate! - Ian Wilson
Reply: Ian, thanks so much for taking the time to leave us this fantastic review! Riely is a gem! I am so grateful to have her helping out by my side. We had some challenges and hiccups along the way for sure, but I am happy we were able to get ahead of everything and get things sorted out with our tight timelines. Thanks for putting your trust in us! We appreciate you, and if you do decide to relocate we can't wait to help you!
The importance of choosing the right Realtor cannot be stressed enough. They are managing the sale of your highest value asset and you are trusting them to do so with professionalism, respect and knowledge. We interviewed 3 well known Realtors and chose to hire Simon from Vantage West because he was the best fit for our needs. He promptly understood the unique aspects of our property which translated into a higher sale value. From start to finish we were thrilled with the experience. We received staging advice from Heather to showcase our home in the best possible light. The photographer was amazing and we fell in love with the photos of our house. We appreciated Riley providing email support and ensured all information was sent quickly. Simon was always available to answer questions – prompt and professional. After the showings, Simon and his team provided us with feedback. When the offer was received, he skillfully negotiated the best terms for us. He also provided professional recommendations for companies needed to fulfill subjects. He is beside you the whole way and does an excellent job of communicating his strategy. All of the above is valuable, but most important is the bottom line – price. The best proof of ability is our house selling for 175,000 more than the LISTING price suggested by another company. How long would it take for you to save 175,000? Sold during a downward changing market (Sept 2022). We fully recommend Simon and his team at Vantage West. Professional, reachable, knowledgeable and great to deal with. - Dianne Bondaroff
Reply: Thank you so much Dianne ! It was truly a pleasure having the opportunity to help you with your family‘s real estate goals! I’m so happy for you guys that we were able to get you such a great result in such on certain market conditions, it always really pays off to have a concrete game plan and a systematic approach to ensure you net the most amount of money! We really appreciate the kind words and you sharing your great experience. It’s been a pleasure to serve you and your family!
Simon is very helpful and easy to find what you are looking for. Very professional and enthusiastic! Do yourself a favour an go with this guy. He will fight for what you want, and make it easy for you to make a decision in this competitive market. - Candacy
Simon went above and beyond to help us get into our first home (and navigate us through the process with a very short timeline). Simon was extremely professional and personable, he really made the whole experience seamless and stress free. He was very patient and made sure we understood everything as first time home buyers, and was always available when we had questions. We can’t say enough good things about our experience! Highly highly recommend Simon as your realtor. - Chantelle Dent
Simon went beyond expectations while attending to my first home purchase :) his attention to detail was appreciated, and he made the process very quick & simple. I would refer Simon to anyone buying or selling in the Kelowna area. - Michael
We used Simon after being referred to him by some very happy friends who had Simon find them a house also this past year. Even though the housing market was very tough for a buyer this past year Simon continued to have homes for us to see and once we found what we wanted he quickly closed the deal and got us an excellent possession date that satisfied our timeline needs. The team he has around him were also very efficient in telling us what we needed to do on our end so the process moved along seamlessly. Thanks for setting up our family in a stress free transition...greatly appreciated! - Benji & Tannis Miles
Simon is an excellent realtor. He handled negotiations well, was responsive and available to us for showings anytime. I would definitely use him again for another purchase or sale of a property. Highly recommended! - Trevor Glinsbockel
This is my first home purchase Simon helped walk me through all the important things to know he was knowledgeable fast easy to work with and accommodating would recommend to anyone looking for an agent - Mick
We found Simon to be extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful! As we were out of town Simon took the initiative in going to the property and allowing us to view the different options via video. He provided us with his honest opinion, ensured to follow up with us and provided us with all the answers to our questions with great detail. With all the information we felt we were in a position to make a well informed decision of our purchase! We would definitely use Simon as our Relator again and have refereed him to friends. - Victor and Toni De Fazio
Reply: Thanks so much for the kind words! I really appreciate having you as clients, I am really glad we were able to accomplish your goals this year in a crazy market! Looking forward to serving you again to find you your next money maker!
Simon helped my girlfriend and I buy our first home. He was very accommodating of our schedules and dropped everything when it came to helping us .I could count on Simon to answer any stupid question that I may have had without any judgement. Being that it was our first time going through this process we were stressed to say the least, But Simon and the team at Vantage West Realty made our experience easy. With the crazy market we had this year we would still be renting if it weren't for Simon. Looking forward to working with Simon again in the future! - Luke J Vogrinetz
Reply: Thanks so much, Luke for taking the time to leave this great review! Of course, I am always here for you if you need anything, there is never any question too big or small I am always happy to help! I appreciate you putting your trust in me to help score you a great deal in a hot and competitive market . It was great to see the values jump for you too in such a short period of time, I love seeing First-time buyers Like yourself reap the benefits of market appreciation right out of the gates!
My wife and I used Simon to buy our current home and the overall experience was outstanding. Simon displayed extensive knowledge not only in the neighborhoods and homes themselves, but also in helping us see the vision of how our new home could become the dream home with some renovation ideas. The negotiations were intense but Simon made the process smooth and seamless and ultimately got us into our new family home and we couldn't be happier. We have and will continue to recommend Simon to our friends and family anything real estate! - Erik
Had a great experience working with Simon and purchased a lovely condo in the building I wanted to live Simon sent me lots of listings and took me to see a variety of units, including all the ones I asked to see. I ultimately purchased in a great building. He was extremely helpful and easy to work with and offered to show me as many listings as I was necessary to ensure I made the right choice. He is very knowledgeable and personable and was a great agent to work with! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him or Vantage West Realty! - kathy beauchesne
Reply: Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us this review, we really appreciate it more than words can say! I am so glad we were able to get you exactly what you wanted in such a crazy brisk market . We are super excited for you!
Simon has made my buying and selling experience so pleasant that I am wanting to buy in that area just to have the opportunity to work with him again. I am BLOWN away with him. He has set the bar at NEW heights. Nothing other than amazing. I feel so taken care of and looked out for. Excellent advice that landed us crazy returns in 11 months' time.. Literally better than crypto. - Kyleigha Beckmann
Reply: Thanks for the great feed back! I really appreciate it! I am so happy everything went smoothly for you and progressed just as planned. Thanks for putting your trust in me! Looking forward to the next one!
I am involved in a complex real estate deal and was feeling very overwhelmed. Simon is helping me navigate through the process often going above and beyond my expectations to help me. His professionalism, expert knowledge, patience and caring is exceptional. Knowing he is only a phone call away makes all the difference. Thank you so much Simon - Ann

Dealing to sell our home I choose the best Realtor in Vantage West Realty Inc. Group. Simon Ward just exceeded all my expectations. For the first time we met, I realized, I got a Realtor whose pride is to go above and beyond in his profession. His marketing strategy really impressed me, the speed of process amazed me. He managed to sell the house in 6 days over asking price. I can't be more thankful and grateful for his amazing service and made the process simple and joyful. - Ilona Csula Moric
Reply: Thanks so much for this great review I really appreciate it. I’m glad everything worked out as smooth as we hoped for you ! We are very excited about the outcome for you and helping you move onto the next chapter! It’s a pleasure to have the opportunity to serve you.
Simon is such a personable, kind and attentive realtor. My husband and I were so pleased to purchase our first home in Kelowna with Simon as our realtor. I cannot say enough good things about him to others who are looking to buy or sell. We are now looking to purchase our second property and of course we got into contact with Simon again! He not only helps us out with the task of finding a property but he has also become a friend. Day or night he is always there to answer questions or clarify inquiries we may have had! Thanks Simon! - Stephanie A.
Reply: Thanks so much Steph ! Always a pleasure having the opportunity to work with you guys !
Simon has never hesitated to take the time out to answer questions or set up viewings, regardless of whether i was ready to purchase or not. Simon understands goods business isn't about making the most money, its about investing in relationships and helping you out. - Adam
Reply: Thanks Adam I appreciate having you guys as clients and friends. Thanks for putting your trust in me !
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Simon. The customer service he provided was amazing, he went above and beyond. He made the process of looking for a townhouse a lot less stressful and smooth for my family and I. He was very professional throughout the entire process and made us feel comfortable and got us the best deal possible. He was very knowledge and explained everything very thoroughly. Him and his team were also very easy to communicate with and worked quickly to send out offers, so we didn't miss out. I high recommend choosing Simon to work with, you won't be disappointed. - Manjodh Aujla

Reply: I am so grateful to have the opportunity to have worked with you guys ! I am so glad everything worked out so well for you guys , We got a great deal in a tough market . I really appreciate having you as clients and friends !
Simon was a great help during the challenging times for us as buyers this past summer. In such a busy market he responded timely and accommodated most of our out-of-town viewings and requests. His knowledge of RE market, business, the Okanagan area as well as all around building and construction experience help tremendously with finding and closing on a right property that suites client's specific needs. Simon offers his advise and recommendations but isn't too pushy and listens to the concerns of his clients carefully. We felt more and more confident over time that we're in caring and professional hands! He helps a lot with the closing process and even after! So grateful!!!!!!!!!!! - Irina and Mark
Reply: I really appreciate having the opportunity to serve you guys! I miss your trips down on the weekend and hope to see you back in town soon. I really am grateful to have the opportunity to serve and work with amazing people like your selves! I hope you are well and we wish you the absolute best with everything in this coming new year!
Simon and the Vantage West Realty team are absolutely exceptional! They are by far the most professional Real Estate agency I have had an opportunity to work with. I felt that I was a top priority throughout both the purchasing and selling process. As with buying and selling property, there were moments when I was a bit nervous, but Simon kept me well informed at every step of the process creating a calm and collected experience. All my questions were answered either on the spot or within a few hours. I was so surprised when Simon offered to talk to tenants regarding the sale of my property and the end of their tenancy. The attention and understanding of my position as a landlord was impressive. Simon and the team then communicated directly with the tenants when arranging showings. I also valued when Gayle from Vantage West Team met me at the purchased property to walk through and confirm everything was as it should be before I took possession. At this moment I am happily settling into my new home and enjoying my new neighbourhood. In addition to all I have mentioned, within this chaotic market, Simon was able to negotiate under asking on my property purchase and get top dollar for my property sale, having it sold within a week of listing! I absolutely would look to Simon Ward and the Vantage West Realty team for any future real estate activity and I highly recommend them to anyone purchasing or selling. - Heidi Samida
Reply: Thanks so much for taking the time to write this review Heidi I really appreciate it it’s always an absolute pleasure to be able to serve you. I’m so grateful and happy that everything worked out so smoothly with our balancing act in a difficult market. It’s not always the case that we can get such a great deal on the other side even in a sellers market. I appreciate having you as a client more than words can express Thanks for always putting your trust in me, I hope you’re happy and getting settled in the new place nicely! I’m really looking forward to seeing what you do with the place!
Simon provided such valuable information and resources to ensure my partner and I had an easy and stress free purchase. He was very accommodating of our schedules when setting up showings, extremely organized and personable. The team at Vantage West Realty complimented Simons' skills very well as they were all so helpful and responsive to any of our needs. Trevor has also been amazing with his property management and tenant placement services. His confidence and high standard of care made us very comfortable knowing that our investment is in good hands. We can not thank Simon and the rest of Vantage West enough for everything they have done for us. Looking forward to working with Simon again in the future and referring him to all of our friends and family! - Rachael B
Reply: Thank you so much for the kind words. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet you guys and help you through the process. I appreciate the great referrals you sent and I look forward to seeing you guys more when she get to town. Always wishing you both absolutely nothing but the very best! Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to serve you.
It was an absolute pleasure working with Simon and the team at Vantage West Realty!! My family and I are forever thankful for having the opportunity to work with him and his team! They took a stressful situation and made it a pleasant experience for all of us! Taking the bull by the horns is an understatement! He listed our property and my wife and I began our journey to our new home across the country. And before we had reached our destination we had multiple offers and our home was sold! Cheers Simon, here's to selling another 1000! - Donnie Schiestel
Reply: Thanks Donnie, so glad everything worked out so smoothly for you guys, I hope you guys are really enjoying being back close to family and your support system. Wish you nothing but the best with all your endeavours moving forward. Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to help you with your goals!
Simon was great, he was always able to come up with lots of properties that fit my criteria, and we placed several offers before finally having one accepted. He was able to get me into the very first showing, and with an immediate offer, we got the place. I am very happy with my purchase, and he was very helpful. He sometimes wears too much cologne, but he also stopped wearing it around me when I mentioned it. - Michael
Reply: Thanks for taking the time to leave this review Michael, of course I always do whatever I can to be accommodating where I can be. So glad we got into that property when we did, I’m super excited for you when I see how well it’s done for you!
As out of town buyers, what seemed like a daunting task was made extraordinarily easier with Simon as our realtor. He was very prepared with plenty of listings the two weekends we came into town to look at properties and didn’t waste any time. His contractor background was an asset in giving us honest feedback about the homes we viewed. His negotiation skills and tenacity really stood out to us when it came time to make an offer, and we were rewarded with a house purchased under asking! Simon was always quick to respond to all of our questions, big and small, throughout the whole process. We had a couple hiccups in our move (not real estate related at all) and he was able to offer a helping hand, which really made him a stand-out in our minds- going that extra mile for us even after the deal was done. We are so thankful to Simon and the Vantage West team in helping make our move to the Okanagan a smooth one! - Adelyn Au
Reply: Thanks so much for taking the time to write this ! I am so glad I had the opportunity to work with you guys ! I had a blast spending time with you and miss the fun we had out on showings ! I hope you guys are enjoying the new home and all the great things the neighbour hood has to offer !
Simon ward has been the most professional realtor my wife and I have ever worked with. The customer service he provided was absolutely incredible, and goes that extra mile to make sure we where satisfied. He got us more for our house that we sold then we expected, and also got our new home for a lot better deal then we would have ever hoped for. I would recommend Simon to anyone, he provides a full great experience with no headaches for any seller or buyer. We are super pleased with him and we would never use anyone else! Thank you Simon for all your hard work for selling our old home, and getting us into our dream home! He is an amazing realtor! - Christian bader
Reply: Thanks Christian ! I am so greatful to have the chance to work with you guys and have you as clients . Looking forward to a long lasting friendship and business relationship !
Simon is the absolute best realtor in Kelowna! He is very professional, well spoken, and accessible. We have bought and sold houses with Simon in the past few years and he has gotten us top dollar on sales on the first day of listing! He has also negotiated exceptional deals on houses that we have purchased saving us hundreds of thousands of dollars. Listing with Vantage West Realty comes with some huge advantages including an entire team dedicated to selling your house such as stagers, photographers, and many others. I would highly recommend anyone looking to either buy or sell a property in Kelowna to go with Simon and Vantage West. - Kristen Olychuck
Reply: Thanks Kristen ! You guys mean so much to me . So glad you feel so well Taken care of . Always a pleasure to work with you and help you with your goals !
I was put in contact with Simon last April through Krissy at vantage west. She recommended him and I am very happy she did. Simon was very patient with me throughout searching for the property that suited me best which was big for me working out of town. When we would go out to view properties i felt a good comfort level with Simon as a friend and my realtor which made buying my first house much more comforting. Anybody looking for an honest, hard working and knowledgable agent, Simon is your guy! - Robert Linsley
Reply: Thank you for these kind words Rob! I am very grateful to have connected with you and had the opportunity to secure you such an awesome place in a great location.I hope you are enjoying the new place . Looking forward to connecting with you again very soon hopefully! All the best , Your friend in Real Estate , Simon -
Simon was excellent throughout the whole process. We were impressed with his, and the whole vantage west teams, professionalism and unique approach to real estate, right from the first interview. The team put together an excellent video marketing package that got our home showcased in front of thousands of potential buyers, even from out of province, in the middle of a pandemic with travel restrictions. The communication was great throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend Simon and the vantage west team! - Carly Schmolke

Simon Ward is absolutely one of the best agents you could possibly work with, hands down! We recently closed on two properties that we absolutely love, all thanks to his boundless efforts and neverending help. He went above and beyond - from the moment we first met, to when we had some tenant troubles a few weeks ago, Simon has always been there with us at every step of the way and he’s definitely earned our trust and future business. As a professional, Simon is efficient, thorough, patient, honest, and highly effective when it comes to getting the deal done right! Thank you to Simon and the entire Vantage West Realty team for helping us make these deals happen, and we look forward to working with you again soon. And if even after reading this review, you find yourself wondering whether or not to call Simon - the answer is yes, you’ll thank me later! - Nickita Nemickin

Simon was awesome! This was our first time buying a home and he started out with making sure we were educated in the home buying process and the market that we were dealing with. He was super patient with us and made sure that we only went for listings that met our criteria. We never felt rushed or pushed - he made us stick to what we wanted. And when we were ready to make a move, he was there and acted fast and we always felt like he made our wants and needs top priority. We would highly recommend Simon and plan on going through him for any future sales or purchases. - Skylar & Korynn

Simon was very professional through the entire process of buying a place. His communication was on point, always willing to respond to us fast, and to show us new places. He respected us, not pushy, but when we wanted to make a deal he was on it right away. Would recommend Simon to anyone out there wanting to buy or sell. - Skighe Evans

This was the first property we have ever sold, so we were nervous and novices! Simon made us very comfortable, and took us through the various stages and tasks needed for a successful sale. It's a complicated site, with a Restrictive Covenant and some other issues. He and Riely Rodrigues did a great job of preparing/staging our house on the lakeshore, minimizing the impact (on us) of showings, and keeping us informed at every stage. They had to deal with the forest fires in the immediate area. Simon advised us to adjust our asking price based on issues identified in private ('Coming Soon') showings. Once 'public', he managed the various offers by potential buyers, and we ended up getting a sale at more than our initial asking number.We felt both comfortable and confident with Simon and his team partner Riely. They were professional, friendly and competent, and made the whole process as much a pleasure as such a process can be. They even gave us a beautiful rendering of our cottage of 32 years on the Lake, to keep as a mmeory. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND SIMON AND HIS TEAM TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A REALTOR IN THIS AREA OF THE OKANAGAN! - Nick Finn (and Heidi Schroter)
