In Thomas's Own Words:

Thomas was extremely helpful and professional through the process of selling our townhouse and finding us our dream home. We’ve known Thomas personally for years and can attest to his character and honesty. We were thrilled to sell our townhouse efficiently considering there was several other units for sale in our area. We also wound up finding a home above and beyond what we had dreamed of. Thomas advocated for us and counselled us through the process and we are thrilled with our new home! - Kehly Carveth
I can't say enough great things about working with Thomas. The commination was immaculate. The excellent video and into for when the house was listed, the pre listed posting. From the first meet to the final signing Thomas was there every step of the way. He is professional, dedicated and trustworthy. Highly respected and most certainly would refer any friends or family to Thomas Kala. THANK YOU THOMAS - Sandra Wolverton
Thomas' knowledge and expertise in the property market made our sale and purchase smooth and without issues. It was comforting knowing that we had someone who genuinely cared about our wishes acting on our behalf. Thomas is very professional, caring and honest. We were able to sell our home for almost asking price in a market where other properties of the same calibre were not selling. Thomas' expertise allowed us to market our property at the right dollar value to expedite a sale and his negotiation skills allowed us to purchase a house for what we were comfortable paying knowing we were getting a good deal. Thank you Thomas for all that you do. - Tracy Wallbank
I was currently working with other realtors and looking for an investment property, we were getting no where. I have been actively looking for about 5 years. I contacted Thomas on a investment property 4 plex listing he had listed. He promptly responded and got me the info. It property wasn't for me, but weeks later he contacted me again asking if I was still interested? Then again, I was surprised as usually that the first time is the last time you hear from most realtors. Then he contacted me again once it was sold. I knew right then that we need to work with Thomas and his persistence and drive would get me the investment property I wanted. We did find our investment property with tones of potential. We will be in contact with more property's to come. Thank you Thomas and your team. Barret and Audra - Barret Bevan
This was our second successful sale with Thomas. He is an expert in his field. He very quickly provided us with the details to price our listing correctly in the market. His team is prompt and courteous and he has aligned his marketing group with the best in the industry. Our listing was photographed, video and marketing materials all completed in a few days. He uses all the marketing resources available in the market and his presentation is always professional. Our listing was sold quickly and efficiently and we were very happy with the outcome. So happy, we then proceeded to purchase our new home with Thomas and his team. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again in a minute. Chris and Krista - Chris Cutlan
Thomas has been an amazing support to us in finding our first home! He was extremely knowledgeable about what repairs would need to be addressed in the near future, or how we could renovate the space, and how much each of these pieces would approximately cost. This was so helpful to us as first time homebuyers attempting to understand the additional costs and possibilities with each place we were considering. Thomas also got us in to see listings very quickly which in the end, was a huge piece of why our offer was accepted on the home we ended up purchasing! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a realtor in Victoria. - Cassi Starc
We are so grateful to have been able to work with Thomas and Courtney. They are knowledgeable, sincere, and efficient. You can easily tell that they are in a business that they value and love. Not only did they help us find our ideal property but they did it with so much integrity. We always felt that they were on our side and any questions that we had were addressed thoroughly. Our family will continue to work with Thomas and Courtney in the future. Thank you! - M.C.
Thomas went truly above and beyond for us! The after sale support was unbelievable. We unfortunately walked into a house that the seller had in the time between us purchasing and occupying, fully neglected. Thomas was just one phone call away, connecting us to cleaners, junk removal...He 100% had us covered! Thomas' experience and understanding of the market conditions made the sell of our house stress free. His outstanding negotiation skills were evident in both the sale and purchase of our houses. If you want a highly professional, knowledable,Ethical agent then we would highly recommend Thomas! - Brian
Thomas turned my house sale around very quickly. We listed on Wed and had multiple offers on Monday and a short possession date. Thomas clearly knew the neighborhood and where to list the asking price. Well done, Thomas! - Jason Scriven
Thomas was professional, smart and very easy to work with. He was efficient and I trusted him with the entire process. He made things incredibly easy and I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in today’s market. - Jenna Carver
This is the second time in less than 3 years that I reached out to Thomas for his help to sell my property and find a more suitable home. Once again, Thomas and his team provided excellent professional services. Thomas is calm and very honest and, above all, very well versed in the industry; it’s evident he knows the market and its fluctuations. [Following the immediate sale of my house, Thomas pushed for continued house showings including an open house (despite my reluctance). In the end, thank goodness this occurred because the sale fell through but since continued advertising was still generating interest, another sale was realized immediately. No time lost.] Thomas has very impressive negotiating skills … these were definitely key to securing the house we felt was perfect for us. I can’t endorse Thomas and his team strongly enough. They don’t miss a step in the process … no gaps, no wondering who to notify or the timeline to follow … this was all spelled out in regular communications from their team. It’s now been over 3 weeks since moving into our new home and we still receive emails to see if everything is going well or if any assistance is needed. - Bernice Bellefontaine
Thomas was wonderful at helping us purchase a property while living out of province! He was someone we could trust, and knew he had all the details covered for us even when we couldn’t be there in person. I would highly recommend him! - Jennifer Carvill
We met Thomas through a personal recommendation. We were happy with our Co-op unit, but wanted to upgrade. Thomas worked diligently, found us the perfect place that ticked all the boxes on our list. He sold our co-op for asking price in under a week. He provided a friendly, efficient service, and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. - Brian Chalmers
Thomas was professional and did everything he said he would and more. Answered phone calls or email or text promptly. I have family members who are going to be selling their homes and Thomas will definitely be getting the listing.👍 - Les Kersey
Thomas made the process of selling my house and purchasing my new home a dream, he made everything simple for me to understand. this was a great experience, thank you Thomas - tracy Gallant
Thomas provided flawless and exceptional service during the purchase of our new home. Throughout the process I was anticipating problems but everything went as smoothly as we could have hoped for. I would highly recommend his services. - Kelly Klassen
Thomas was very supportive and patient with our requests. He provided outstanding service and responded to any any of our texts or phone calls within minutes. I would likely recommend his services to anyone interested in getting a fair deal done. - Kirk Van Helvoirt
Thomas and Cody were amazing! They provided much care and expertise in the selling of my home, during crazy times with the interest rate hikes. They were patient in explaining the process and while being extremely professional they also had a little fun! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy. I highly recommend them.Thank you so much guys!!! - Tina
Thomas and his team provided us with an above expectations services. From knowledge of the area to advices on how to make it happen, we are extremely pleased with the team. - Laurence
Great to deal with. Thomas acted with honesty and integrity. They had a solid marketing plan and a personalized website so buyers could really feel the house before a showing. I'd recommend them to anyone in the Victoria area. - Tyler Hupp
Thomas Kala and his team are simply the best. His modern, savvy marketing strategy paid off and his attention to detail was incredible. He made buying and selling quick and easy. So he’s a great realtor but more importantly he’s also a kind man who is generous with his time, knowledge and experience. I trusted him implicitly, and I seldom say that about anyone. He gave advice and was great at listening to what we wanted, and also responded with care and empathy. I only wish we had engaged his services much sooner in our house hunt. So give him a try. You’ll not regret it. - RP
It was a pleasure working with Thomas to find my home. His knowledge of home construction and things to watch out for were invaluable in the current market. He helped me find the perfect house and I would definitely recommend him - Mike Magnusson
Thomas is an extremely hard working and extremely responsive professional to deal with. I can't imagine a realtor that I would rather go through this harrowing process with than Thomas Kala and his team. - James NC Rogers
Thomas had my house sold after only being on the market for one day! He not only did an amazing job with the showing of my home for it to sell fast, but sold it for well over the cost of what I expected. Listed for $899, 000 and sold for $1, 028,000 speaks for itself. Thanks again Thomas! - Tania Durmuller
We were extremely happy with all aspects of their services. I have already recommend Thomas and Courtney to my family. My family had nothing but appreciation for this introduction. - Greg Fox
Service we received was exceptional. We’ve used Thomas and Courtney on this purchase and earlier transactions and we would highly recommend them. They are very knowledgeable of the market and highly motivated. - Larry/Deb Roney
Thomas was extremely helpful, starting with the search. My plan was to start looking, only, to gauge the market, with the intent of purchasing and relocating from Saskatchewan, in 18-24 months. The perfect-for-me home was listed and with Thomas' reassurance that the house was a nice as the photos, I purchased based on a virtual walk-through. He handled the negotiations professionally, and was prompt to respond. Less than 3 weeks later, I took possession! The property was as good, or better than the pictures. Thomas recommended service suppliers to deal with minor repairs that were noted in the house inspection and was also able to refer some potential tenants, thanks to his wide network of contacts. I have several friends who are considering relocating to the Victoria area, and without a doubt, I will give them Thomas' contact information. - Vicki Radons
We really can't say enough about our experience with Thomas. Reliable, knowledgeable, professional, courteous, connected, I could go on and on. Thomas sold our home in record time and then was ready to take as much time as we needed to find the perfect home. He knows his business - we love our new home and we would recommend Thomas without hesitation. - Stephanie Clark

Thomas is a fantastic young man and a great Realtor, he was so helpful with the sale of my house which was a very emotional journey after 34 years. Thomas was there for me even when the questions seemed silly, he always had an answer or would find one. Thomas also help my children and myself find the perfect home for us to purchase together with a beautiful suite for me. Thomas is very knowledgeable and a hard worker and I am very happy to recommend him to anyone. Thank you Thomas for helping me with the selling of my house and the purchasing of our new forever home. - Karen MacKay
Thomas worked with us for 2 years while we made the move and throughout gave us excellent support and guidance. he went over and above and spent an extensive amount of time finding us the right home once we were reading, and all in a market without much inventory. - Kevin Sutherland
Thomas and Courtney from Pinnacle Luxury Homes sold our house back in the fall. From the moment we sat down to their market analysis, to handing them over the keys for the new home owners, we knew we were in good hands. Their professionalism and knowledge of the local market really gave us confidence in the whole process and they managed to make the experience quite enjoyable for us. Five stars all day long for these two!! - Rebecca Andrews

Really great team, presented and marketed our home brilliantly, with immediate results beyond expectations. Thomas is caring and attentive, really an exceptional level of service. We highly recommend his sophisticated marketing to get you the deal you hoped for. - Neil McKinney
Thomas was an excellent profesional very knowledgeable and with great marketing strategies to successfully sell my condo in this difficult times with Covid and social distancing, but he kept his promised and focus on the sale of my property. - luis cuevas
We hired Thomas to sell our home during the pandemic and we couldn't have been more satisfied with his services. The first time we met, he told us he would market our house like he would market a million dollar home and that is exactly what he did. High quality photos and videos, 3D floor plans, virtual walkthroughs, ads in real estate magazines and a dedicated website for the property are only a fraction of the marketing tools he used to sell our house. We appreciated his professionalism, his sage advice when reviewing offers with us, his availability every time we called, texted or wanted to meet in person, and the fact that we dealt directly with him at every step of the process (i.e. he never referred us to a coworker or an assistant). We highly recommend Thomas to anyone selling a property in Victoria, BC. - Antoine Leblanc
