I facilitated buying a home for my elderly parents with Steve and he was everything we could ask for and more. He is exceptionally well versed with the strata/gated communities and how leased land and strata works which was a huge relief to my family. Steve was not pushy at all, we were not just a sale to him, he wanted to make sure we found the right home in the right area at the right price. He was extremely responsive to emails and texts and the purchase documents were very straightforward leading to a quick and successful buy. Whether buying or selling, I would definitely recommend Steve! - Tammy Davis

We initially saw a home for sale in Chilliwack. We were not very familiar with the area and Steve was the listing agent for the property and we contacted him to view the home. Steve was well prepared and knowledgeable about the area. We did not put an offer on that property but we felt comfortable asking Steve to arrange for us to view a number of homes in the area. He put together homes in neighborhoods he felt would be suitable. We eventually found a home that has met our needs for the past 12 years. I feel Steve did an excellent job for us without pressuring us to make a decision. - Gary Crooks
