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

I have talked real estate with Steve for many years before selling our properties and relocating. Steve is knowledgeable and his advice helped us gauge when to time our sales. His advice on staging saved us spending more than we had to and he had some great ideas we benefitted from too. Steve is a go getter and when he’s not busy with clients he gets out there and does the rounds just chatting and being friendly with everyone who may need his services one day. I gave him a very vague lead on one of our properties and Steve chased it down and had it sold before the listing was even up! It’s easy to be a realtor when the market is hot - but Steve has been a stable performer in all markets - and I would highly recommend using Steve for all your real estate needs. - Ian Clark
Reply: Thank you Ian & Lil. It was a pleasure working with you both. I really appreciate the trust you put in me to sell your properties. It means a lot. Thanks again. Steve
We recently used Steve as an agent to both sell and buy properties in the Chilliwack area. Over the years Steve has always impressed us as one of the most hard working agents around.

We would definitely work with him again and have no hesitation in recommending his services to anyone looking for an agent. - Gary Strahl
