Client Testimonials

Pemberton Holmes – Salt Spring

Fiona Walls is an incredible REALTOR®. She offered helpful suggestions for staging our home for the real estate market. Her suggestion of price range was bang on. In the end, our property sold very quickly and Fiona was there to help us through the inspection, the bidding and the closing process. She truly listened and asked very relevant questions. She helped us focus on listings more effectively. With her two decades of experience, Fiona offered a range of possible homes for us to view. We always felt that she was well informed about the listings. Fiona’s experience was greatly appreciated when supplying us with additional information about homes we had shortlisted. Not finding a home on Salt Spring that suited our needs, Fiona connected us with two different agents in nearby Vancouver Island communities. Even though we were now looking off Salt Spring, she stayed connected. In conclusion, we cannot say enough about Fiona’s integrity, experience, knowledge and thoughtfulness. Fiona is a superb REALTOR® and we were so fortunate to have her as our REALTOR®.

We worked with Christina during the spring of 2022 for the sale of our undeveloped family property on Salt Spring Island. Given we were all geographically dispersed and located outside of British Columbia, Christina’s professionalism and flexibility, at one point coordinating across four time zones with multiple offers in play, proved to be an invaluable asset to the sale of our property. Despite the uniqueness of our listing, with her guidance we were able to secure a listing price in line with the market and finalize a deal far ahead of our expected timelines. Her attention to detail when it came to marketing our property was exceptional, and we truly believe it contributed to the quick sale. Christina was responsive, respectful, and helped guide us through the process to ultimately secure the best possible offer for our family. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again in the future.

My wife and I have recently worked closely with Levi to find and purchase a house on Salt Spring Island. Levi has been an integral part of the team. He helped us discover and fine tune our needs and wants, identify a workable price point in a changing market and locate properties that fit those criteria, while also being affordable for us. He showed us properties we had identified as interesting and found ones he thought would work. We ultimately found the perfect house for ourselves and our family and Levi then guided us through the negotiations like the pro he is. I would wholeheartedly recommend working with Levi and would certainly work with him again.

Fiona Walls has integrity, steadfastness and a strong ability to listen to the clients’ needs. It was reassuring to have her list my house when it was time to sell. Fiona skillfully helped me negotiate the sale and the closing of my house. When we wanted to purchase our new home we knew Fiona would be our first choice as our REALTOR® once again. Both of us felt heard and understood, as she carefully listened to all the requirements we had for our new home, and kept us on track. She wisely guided us through all the negotiations, and made the closing seamless. We strongly recommend Fiona to take care of all of your real estate needs.

We were so grateful to have been referred to Fiona when we started our search for a home on Salt Spring. We got to know her over the 2 years we were looking and could not recommend her more! She was wonderful to work with in so many ways, but to list a few….she is very knowledgeable about the housing market, she is easy to communicate with, had great insights regarding the community and what might be important for our family, many connections to other supports we needed along the way, and was calm and supportive in all the ways we needed. We would recommend her to anyone looking for their Salt Spring Island Home! Thank you Fiona!!

In 1995 I decided to move to Salt Spring Island and was looking for a real estate agent. I contacted Myles Wilson, as he was highly recommended to me. Based on his vast experience and knowledge of the island, he carefully and diligently guided me through each phase, allowing me to confidently select and purchase the perfect island home. What I appreciate and respect the most about Myles is his honest, down-to-earth attitude. He is diligent with the details, especially hidden ones easily overlooked by the client, and he will not mismatch a home to a client simply to make a sale. Hands down, I highly recommend Myles to others!

Look no further for your Salt Spring REALTOR® needs. Fiona is the one to work with to realize your island living dreams! Choosing a REALTOR® in a new area where you don’t currently live can be extremely challenging as you need someone who is going to advocate for your needs and find you the perfect place to call home. Fiona is an incredible REALTOR®, who knows the unique opportunities and challenges of each neighbourhood of the island. We purchased an incredibly complex property with many facets and Fiona guided us through the entire process to a very positive outcome.

It took me a year and a half to find exactly what would work for me. Norman never once showed anything but support for the decisions I made. I found Norman was well versed in the Salt Spring market, and spot on to the value of real estate on the island. Norman’s attention to client well-being didn’t stop with the purchase of my new property. I have received two or three follow-up calls to ensure that all was going well. He has been very clear that if I need any help adjusting to my new place, he is there for me.

Fiona made the job of selling my long time home on Salt Spring quick, easy and enjoyable. She was always available for consultation, and her knowledgeable advice was often asked for and freely given. Her many recommendations for contractors to help get the house ready for sale were invaluable. I do believe she knows everybody on the island! I wouldn’t have wanted to undertake this journey with anyone else. I highly recommend her if you want to feel you have someone in your corner at all times. Thank you Fiona!

I want to take this opportunity to express my admiration for, trust in, and appreciation of Peter Allan. My situation was unique dealing with my parents both 94 years of age. Peter is a true professional and a genuinely down-to-earth nice guy. To be compassionate is not just to tell someone that you care, but also to show them that you care by being there before they even are asked, and Peter did just that. I think you’d be hard-pressed to find a better REALTOR®. Peter, thank you!

My family had a very positive experience working with Levi and I highly recommend him. He helped us find the perfect home for our family on Salt Spring Island. Throughout the entire process Levi demonstrated exceptional patience, thoughtfulness and professionalism. He worked diligently around our schedules and the many requirements of our multi-generational family. Levi also provided great creative ideas and showed remarkable patience as we navigated the home buying journey.

We were relocating from the mainland and had no idea where to start. Myles patiently walked us through the entire process, from understanding the unique zoning and water districts to finding a home that felt just right. His local knowledge and calm presence made what could have been a stressful experience truly enjoyable. We’re so grateful to be starting this new chapter on Salt Spring, thanks to Myles.

Of the 5 real estate agents that I’ve worked with over the years, Rob is by far the best, in a class of his own. He is always available but not pushy. He provides sales guidance, local information, referrals, and suggestions, all with a gentle, informative manner. He even helped us move into our new home! I would recommend Rob to my best friend, without hesitation.

I can't say enough positive things about working with Levi. His vast knowledge of the island and the real estate market made the whole process a pleasure and a success. Levi continued to help long after the purchase process was complete and went above and beyond helping with moving to the island. I recommend him for any of your real estate needs on Salt Spring.

Donny Keane

Levi went above and beyond in helping us purchase a rental property. It was a tricky sale and he really made sure that all parties felt good. We especially appreciated his attention to detail and his guidance as we went through the process. Don’t let his young face fool you — Levi knows his stuff and will soon be in very high demand. Get him while you can!

We found Norman to be a very personable and professional REALTOR® who did a great job communicating with us. He is genuine and very knowledgeable about the local market. He provided a keen ability in reading our needs while shepherding us through the home buying process. Our experience with him was a pleasure and we cannot recommend him highly enough.

We’ve worked with Myles on both the buying and selling sides, and wouldn’t go with anyone else. He knows Salt Spring inside and out, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his clients. Whether it’s recommending a good surveyor or navigating a tricky approval, he’s always one step ahead. Highly recommend.

My wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Rob Irving over the years on three real estate transactions. We valued Rob’s expert, objective, practical and professional guidance and would highly recommend Rob Irving as a REALTOR®.
