When my wife and I decided to look for a retirement property in Victoria we fortunately found Robin via his youtube videos describing different areas of Victoria (which are very informative). We talked with him over the phone and outlined our "ideal home" requests and then met him when we visited Victoria a couple of weeks later and he had created a list of potential options based on our requests. He was very patient in taking us around the various options and although our first visit was unsuccessful we kept in touch and he continued to send us links to homes that came up that met our wish list. When one popped up that seemed very promising he even kindly did a video tour of the property with us and thus we went back to Victoria a few days later. He guided us expertly through the negotiation process to a successful purchase. He then gave us numerous recommendations for a real estate lawyer, inspector, property manager, and various contractors to fix small issues with the house we had bought. We found Robin to be very approachable and kind, responsive, and he gave us excellent advice. He made the process of buying a house in a different province as painless as possible. Many thanks Robin!

We first met Robin at a coffee shop in Cadboro Bay in 2022 while visiting Victoria from out of town. From the very beginning, Robin was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to guiding us through purchasing our first home in Victoria from afar. Robin also connected us with an incredible network of experts, including inspectors, lawyers, lenders, energy auditors, cleaners, painters, plumbers, electricians, landscapers, and more. Being new to Victoria, things that could have been incredibly difficult became easy with Robin’s support. After living in Victoria for a few years, we decided we wanted a change and began exploring new areas. Robin brought thoughtful enthusiasm and market intelligence to our exploration of a wide range of properties, from those entirely off the grid to those nestled in emerging suburbs. He also diligently guided us through selling our first home in a complex market. We recently concluded our home-buying journey with a property we wouldn’t have found or considered without Robin’s help. The house is a unique match for our family—addressing the logistics of our family of five while capturing the imagination with its unique beauty, carefully crafted features, and a location that is deeply embedded in nature yet still close to everything. It’s a gift to have someone as skilled, openhearted, and experienced as Robin on your side for the big transitions of life. We are thankful to Robin for both the journey and the wonderful destination.

Robin made selling my house an absolute breeze! From our very first meeting, Robin put my mind at ease with his kindness and quiet confidence. He had a clear plan and executed it perfectly, resulting in multiple offers within the first couple days. Communication was perfect too - in a process as stressful and as personal as selling your house, having someone you can trust to take the reins makes a world of difference. Robin involved me when necessary, but otherwise handled everything - from oil tank removal to staging. The house hit the market looking like a magazine cover thanks to Nicole’s beautiful staging and sold immediately. It doesn’t get better than that!

As first time homebuyers, we are so glad we chose to work with Robin! He is both friendly and communicative, and his knowledge of the condo market and stratas was so reassuring. He offered a wealth of information by answering our many questions (sometimes before we even knew what to ask!), and offering plenty of recommendations and referrals. Once we found a potential place, Robin helped us negotiate a great offer, and made sure we understood and were happy during each step of the process. We always felt that Robin listened to our needs and concerns, and addressed things quickly and efficiently. We were lucky to have had Robin on our team!
