Dealing with Andrew Hobbs for the recent sale of our condo has been a great pleasure. His advice on pricing was right on and he was able to calmly manage us through an offer, a release, then multiple offers which resulted in a quick sale over our asking price! I always felt that I could count on him to do what he said he was going to do. I highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking to buy or sell their home!
I was impressed by Andrew's expertise throughout the process of selling my condo. He set realistic expectations and over delivered in the best way! We appreciated the time Andrew took to explain each step and it was remarkable to hear him break down the nuances and provide us with the insight we needed. I can't imagine doing that part of the process alone, I will highly recommend him to friends and family!

Thanks to Jeff and The Condo Group Real Estate, reimagined as Island Realm Real Estate, Ltd for making the purchase of our new home and the sale of our last home an easy experience... we are excited to start a new chapter in our new home!
We were so pleased with Jeff's thoroughness, professionalism, and skill. He steered us clear of pitfalls and guided us through a uniquely complex sale that we had to deal with. Most of all, we both liked and trusted Jeff with our home sale.

Received outstanding service from Jeff Shaw of The Condo Group Real Estate, reimagined as Island Realm Real Estate,. Hardworking and scrupulous. I have just moved into the perfect house in the perfect location for me, and would not have known about it had he not identified the development at an early stage -- the timing was critical, especially on the island. He builds long-term relationships and will stick with you for the long haul -- that is rare.
Chris has helped me buy and sell since moving here in 2015. He’s knowledgeable, reliable, and professional. He made the whole process easy and stress-free. I would highly recommend Chris and The Condo Group Real Estate for your next move!
Allie was great at answering most of my administration questions. I don't think any other team in the city would make it as breezy. Will continue purchasing/selling my properties with this team and highly recommend to others!
Just a quick, but deep, thank you for your care and time from the beginning, for the continued interest and follow-through, and your help and energy with the unexpected rush of the offer and purchase!One never knows what kind of realtor they will get from cold calling on a property and whether they will continue to use that person or not. You were a lucky ‘fall in her lap’ person that worked well, so we thank the stars and you for being at the right place at the right time.
Thanks to the team for making both the purchase of our new home and the sale of our last home where we made many memories an easy experience. It is never easy letting go of your old home but this was as positive an experience as it could have been and we are excited to start a new chapter in our new home. Thanks, everyone!
Jeff Shaw was a jewel to work with...he kept us informed of everything happening on the sale of our condo and the purchase of our townhouse...I highly recommend the Condo Group...
Thanks to Andrew Hrushowy, I live in paradise. Andrew actively listened to my criteria for a home and then showed me only homes that met my criteria. He was systematic in his approach. He first educated me in a classroom about roles and responsibilities. And then he educated me by showing me 5 houses. Once he knew that I was up to speed, we started to look at houses to purchase. And it did not take long to find "the one". Lots of hand-holding with the offer. Andrew even suggested an inspection of the perimeter drains. I have since learned how unusual it is to attend to this level of detail. Possession date: April 1 (yes, during COVID-19). Andrew continued to provide support long after he had received his commission. It's wonderful to know someone like Andrew during these very challenging times.
Many thanks to Chris Gill, who helped me with the purchase of a property in Victoria. He is very knowledgeable about the market and provided excellent advice regarding the type of property I should buy. Shortly after my offer was accepted, my personal circumstances changed, and I wasn’t able to follow through with the purchase. This was a difficult situation, but Chris helped me navigate my way out of it. If you are looking for someone with integrity, who will help you even after the sale, I highly recommend Chris Gill.

I had always wanted to move out west to retire. John Hircock worked with me through a weekend to make that possible and find a beautiful retirement condo!
With the speed of everything that transpired - from contemplating selling my condo to putting it up for sale and then finding a buyer - I could only put this down to the expertise of Mike Pearce (and his staff). The whole experience of the sale was professional and with great energy. Great work!
John Hircock helped me fulfill a decades-long dream - to retire in Victoria. People said I couldn't afford a beautiful condo here. They were mistaken. Don't believe me. Talk to John. There are still some affordable gems.

My family has used Tony and his business for four real estate transactions. What impressed me was their professionalism and ability to go the extra mile to close a deal. If I end up relocating back in Victoria, this will be my first stop.
Awesome people! Definitely recommend

Good energy and vibe in the office when talking to my realtor. It was a really quick and steady process of purchasing my first condo.
Mike Pearce came highly recommended to us. After meeting with Mike it did not take us long to decide that we wanted him as our realtor. He helped us sell our home quickly and find us a new home right away that checked all of the boxes on our list. Everyone that we worked with on Mike's team was knowledgeable, professional, very helpful and friendly. I would recommend Mike and the Condo Group to anyone who is needing a great team of professionals to buy/sell their home.

Mike Pearce is the best realtor around. He is incredibly knowledgeable, taught us a lot about the market, a quality purchase, and guided us to what we wanted. He's speedy, thorough, and service-oriented, plus just pleasant to be around. You know he's working to get you what you want, not just for a commission, and that builds a lot of trust and respect. We also had problems with our seller after the fact, and he continued to provide awesome service to help us. Thanks Mike!

The Condo Group Real Estate, reimagined as Island Realm Real Estate, was amazing, from their clarity, punctuality, energy, and thoroughness.

We had a great experience with Mike Pearce and The Condo Group Real Estate, reimagined as Island Realm Real Estate,. After having been absent from the real estate market for many years we were a little apprehensive about what our experience would be. But both the sale of our house and the purchase of our new condo went more smoothly than we anticipated. We would recommend Mike and The Condo Group Real Estate to other buyers or sellers.

John Hircock looked after us during a tough time and we'll always be grateful! John is a great realtor and a very good friend.
Mike Pearce was hardworking, honest and gave his professional opinions on the condos/areas we were interested in. We trusted Mike Pearce and actually purchased a condo without viewing it in person...once we saw it, we were very pleased with our purchase. Mike's service goes above and beyond, quick response time, knowledge, and patience with all our questions.
Our agent, Chris Gill, always made time to answer all of our questions and made the selling process very easy for us. The whole team was awesome and on top of the game with all the paperwork and communication. We had a great experience and will use The Condo Group Real Estate again for our next purchase/sale.

The resources and knowledge provided to us were what brought us to the amazing house that we call home, today. Kudos to Mike and team!
These professionals quickly sold my house (48 hours!) for more than the asking price! We were very satisfied with their work ethic and attention to detail. Great job Andrew and The Condo Group Real Estate, reimagined as Island Realm Real Estate,!

Moving across the country from Burlington, Ontario to Victoria, BC is a big move. This also makes searching for and buying a house even more challenging. My wife and I were fortunate to work with Mike Pearce on the purchase of our Victoria Condo/Strata. Mike is incredibly knowledgeable about the Victoria condo market, and throughout the entire process, Mike was professional and provided sound guidance and advise. As a result, we were successful in purchasing the condo we wanted! Thanks to Mike and his team at The Condo Group Real Estate for their support the whole way. Highly recommend Mike and The Condo Group Real Estate!
Quick sale and I was glad to get feedback after each showing of the suite that included opinion on pricing.
A very nice young man who took the utmost interest in my particular situation. I highly recommend him to anyone who is planning to buy and/or sell. I am very happy with the condo I purchased.
It gives us great pleasure to share our experience with Chris Gill of The Condo Group Real Estate with respect to the recent sale of an investment condo we owned. The property sold within a couple of days of it hitting the market for FULL PRICE! We were extremely impressed by the level professionalism, knowledge and efficiency displayed by Chris and his team. We were kept apprised of every detail of the process, down to viewing appointments and feedback from potential buyers. We highly recommend Chris Gill and The Condo Group Real Estate to anyone who is looking for the very best!
Chris was always available to answer our questions and lead us (inexperienced sellers) through the entire process!
I always felt like Chris was there to help us out. When Chris was unavailable, other members of The Condo Group Real Estate where quick to answer our questions and support us. The teamwork was fantastic! In addition, the helpful tips about preparing us for our move were extremely helpful. This is the third time I’ve used The Condo Group Real Estate and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Kevin was extremely pleasant to deal with. He answered every question promptly and listened to our concerns.
Kevin is/was always available to meet any needs we had, from advise to lending a hand in moving from one unit to another. Kevin went out of his way to ensure our son was ferried around the city to view properties and to lend his experience in choosing the right fit for the purchases we made.
Kevin was fantastic, listened to our needs and followed through with exactly what we had asked for.
Kevin was really responsive and totally understood my need to sell quickly, and gave me appropriate, usable guidance. Just the right amount of contact and great, straightforward, honest communication.
We thought Raegan did an excellent job helping us find a condo. He allowed us to view a lot of condos without pushing us into buying something and answered our many questions. The condo's closing time was challenging and he helped us get through it, he alleviated the stress.
Mike was clear and to the point about what needed to be done and when to do it. We appreciated his advice to move quickly, and he was right about timing our sale. Efficient communication, and he always returned our calls and texts promptly!
Jeff Shaw was very accommodating, professional and took the time to understand my needs. Jeff worked extra to ensure that I was looked after during the construction of my home and was always ready to provide a most excellent service. He helped make what could have been a very stressful time a lot more relaxed and comfortable. I would recommend Jeff to everyone that I know.
The organization was amazing! In regards to Mike, we loved his no nonsense attitude, his near perfect knowledge of the market and ability to calm us down and help us think.
Jeff Shaw and The Condo Group Real Estate were phenomenal. Jeff sold my condo within no time, and was a pleasure to deal with. He is extremely knowledgeable, and shared that knowledge with me throughout the selling process. The Condo Group Real Estate has great systems, an awesome online presence, are very tech savvy, and kept me in the loop non-stop. I highly recommend both Jeff and the team behind him!
Entire process was extremely quick, thorough, and painless! We will absolutely use Mike`s services again! Thanks!
Kevin really knows what he is doing. He gave us honest and helpful advice.
Excellent work by Kevin. Responsive and helpful beyond just the sale!
Mike and his team were so amazing and detailed, I felt we just took a university course on buying a condo. He was very responsive and the whole team provided answers to everything. His approach and knowledge is second to none and I cannot believe I talked to anyone else about my purchasing decisions.
Brad is so knowledgeable about the Victoria market! It was great to be able to ask him questions and trust his answers.
Everything was done smoothly and the lines of communication were always open. Mike did a great job of getting all the viewings early and exceeding our price expectations. His support team were in constant contact throughout.
Andrew Hobbs took the time to get to know what my needs and wishes were. Highly helpful was his patience in guiding me through the process of becoming educated on the current market and how to make the wisest decision. Never did I feel pressured which I appreciated!
You can really trust Mike, he won't let you buy until you love the place. If he was just looking for a sale he would have sold me the first place I looked at and didn't love. There is no pressure selling, he understands what you like and dislike.
Our realtor was a complete professional. Always on time, and willing to answer any question I had at any moment during the entire process. As It was my first time buying a home I was in way over my head, Mike made it seem simple. I look forward to working with him and his team in the future.
I want to sincerely thank you for your efforts, patience, commitment, and hard work displayed throughout the entire process of purchasing my first home. I was really impressed with your level of knowledge with respect to the condo market, which enabled me to make informed decisions and gave me leverage in the bargaining process. As a result of your hard work, I feel fantastic in my new living space and optimistic about my investment. I would recommend your services to anyone purchasing a condo in the Victoria area.
This is my second experience working with The Condo Group Real Estate and Tony Zarsadias, where in both instances the level of professionalism, condo knowledge, and overall client appreciation/support will keep this company at the top of my list and recommended to others!
My husband and I had very specific ideas for purchasing a new house, including: layout, size, and location. To make matters more difficult, we had a price point in line that was challenging to accomplish our buying goals. Andrew Hobbs was patient, offered great advice, and thankfully searched for what we wanted with us and without us. He saved us time and kept our goals in mind even when we were starting to waiver. Also, he was able to work around our very inflexible viewing schedule. We have now purchased a great house that matched everything that we were looking for. We would recommend Andrew to anyone and will use his services again.
We so appreciated Chris’ patience and dedication to finding us the “right” property. We fully trusted his judgement and couldn’t be happier with the outcome!
My wife and I just purchased a condo in Oak Bay. Chris Gill was the best realtor to work with. We are from the states so we thought it was not going to be easy to purchase in Oak Bay without lots of stress. Chris Gill was there every minute to answer all our questions and help us through the whole procedure. He was willing to talk with us any time of day and made sure we had everything we needed to purchase our condo. Chris took the stress of buying out of country completely away for us. We so appreciative of all the work he did for us. We would recommend Chris to anyone interested in purchasing property in Victoria. His calmness and confidence will leave you knowing you are in the right hands.
Mike recently sold our house in less than a week. He provided clear direction on what needed done to prepare the property for sale along with great advice on pricing the property correctly. Mike’s attention to detail, constant communication and the ability to calm any apprehension we had was second to none. We wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend Mike as a choice for realtor.
I would highly recommend working with Tony Zarsadias. He was very professional and his knowledge of the condo market is second to none. He was able to provide us with excellent market evaluations and I must say he was very accurate. If we had of listened to his advice originally the property would have sold much quicker. We did end up selling the condo in Sidney for right around Tony’s original listing price request.
When it comes to financial investments I’m a shrewd investor; for real estate, when push comes to shove, I’m glad Mike Pearce is in my corner.
A big thanks to you and your great team at The Condo Group Real Estate for getting my place sold. You are so relaxed & great to work with. It seemed you knew exactly what to do when. Its interesting to see other condos in my building that were listed before I listed and they are still for sale, obviously I had the advantage.
My wife and I were both thoroughly impressed with Andrew. As first time buyers, the whole process can seem a bit overwhelming. Andrew made it simple and explained everything fully in an easy to understand way. He didn’t try to rush us and made sure we understood the pros and cons of each property. He was always polite, friendly, and organized. We would easily recommend him to anyone looking to buy!
Andrew restarted a set of negotiations that a previous realtor was unable to conclude. It was our desired property. His ability to close the deal to the satisfaction of both parties was impressive. The skill set and level of integrity he displayed is exactly what is needed in today’s real estate market. We have no hesitation in recommending Andrew to anyone looking for a top-notch realtor.
As a young condo hunter, I have appreciated the incredible patience, character, and dedication that Andrew has shared with me during my condo buying process. Andrew took the time to answer each question I threw at him, while also carefully explaining any other relevant aspects of the real estate process. Over the past few months, Andrew has shown his extraordinary commitment by being available with flexible appointment times, via text message, or through responding extremely promptly to emails. We had to negotiate many players through the purchase of my condo, including family and selective sellers, and Andrew displayed only professionalism, creativity, and persistence over the course of reaching an agreement. Through his hard work, we found the perfect condo and I adore it to bits. Andrew is exactly the kind of real estate agent that clients hope to find – honesty, integrity, patience, and humour are only a few of the courtesies that Andrew has extended my way. I will most definitely turn to Andrew with any future real estate purchases. Andrew – thank you again for everything.
From beginning to end, Mike P. and his team at the Condo Group continuously went above and beyond with ensuring that our needs were met! Finding the perfect condo is a hard task for all, but with the determination and careful consideration Mike P. provided to us, the entire process allowed for a stress free search! We will continue to highly recommend The Condo Group Real Estate for years to come!!
Jason and I selected Graham Bavington as our realtor because of many years of friendship. But we ended up working with more than just Graham and we loved everyone on the team. Chris Gill came to all meetings and Graham and Chris took turns negotiating. Amy Francoeur did a great job booking appointments. We really appreciated all the help and support during the process. The team did a great job helping us step by step and we were very happy with the success of selling our home and getting into our beautiful new one. I would highly recommend this team for any real estate venture!
Thank you!
Just a short note to thank you and your team for the excellent and highly professional services provided to me in selling my late mother’s condo. From the moment I made contact with you, I felt comfortable with the advice you were providing and confident that I had chosen the right Realtor. As I was from out of province, I was not familiar with the specific real estate market – your expertise and detailed knowledge pertaining to the condo market in Victoria was enormously helpful, practical and valued. I was also very impressed with the system that The Condo Group Real Estate has put in place for notifying clients about showings and for providing feedback following showings. Despite the fact that I was far away, I felt as if I was being kept informed at all times. When an offer was made, you helped me through that difficult process in a very effective manner, both by phone and by email. I am most appreciativethat the electronic means were available to handle all of the documents from a distance. The happy end result was a sale that satisfied all of my family, which was of paramount importance to me as Executrix of the estate. I really appreciate your sensitivity to the situation. I would cheerfully recommend you to anyone having a condo to sell in Greater Victoria.
Thanks again for all of your help and that of your very fine team.
Just wanted to let you know that we very much appreciate your professionalism, knowledge, and pleasant manner. You made our recent purchase in Victoria enjoyable and the services and professionals you recommended during the due diligence and closing phases were very helpful as well. Thanks so much for the time you took with us and the assistance you provided in the purchase of our home.
Three weeks ago I went to Tony Zarsadias and Chris Gill and said I wanted to buy a condo and I wanted it quick! Within a day, they set me up with a great mortgage broker and I was pre-approved. Chris and Tony met with me the next day to ask what I was looking for. Two days after that I was looking at places, and I ended up buying the first one I looked at. For what I was looking for, it was/is perfect. Jessica in the office kept everything flowing when the boys couldn’t and within two weeks, I had possession.
The Condo Group Real Estate hammered it out of the park and I am stoked to be in my new 2 bedroom condo downtown in Victoria. Thanks a lot for all your hard work. Love my new place!
I love my condo. The building is well maintained and surprisingly quiet. It’s convenient to everything and there’s a dock just a few steps up the street. There’s a nice sense of community in the Railyards as well.
The purchase of the condo was one of the best things I have done for myself.
Thank you for all your help and guidance, Andrew.
Being both a resident and local investor, Andrew has helped me with several real estate transactions over the last three years. I am impressed with both his breadth and depth of knowledge in real estate. He is up to the second with any changes in the local market. Not only has Andrew found me some great properties, but he has also steered me away from what I thought were great investments, with knowledge only an experienced realtor would have, saving me thousands. I would not hesitate to use Andrew for my next real estate transaction.
I truly appreciated your assistance and will recommend you to my friends and associates!
We listed our house with Chris Gill and the Condo Group in March 2015. The results speak for themselves. They sold our property in less than 24 hours for 20K over asking. It was a dream scenario.
Chris personally took on the task of hyping and marketing our property not only to the public but also to an elite group of realtors prior to our house hitting the MLS. It is without a doubt that this tactic generated the buzz and hype needed to provide this kind of result.
Equally impressive is the work of Amy Francoeur, The Condo Group Real Estate office manager. She was incredibly responsive with any task we asked of her. Anytime we reached out, regardless of the format of communication or how trivial the matter was, we received responses within minutes. MINUTES!
That really is the difference. With the Condo Group you get the whole team working for you. They are completely systematic yet have not lost their soul along the way.
The cherry on top is the technology they provide you with to track comparable listings, sales and showing feedback. It was easy to use and kept us connected as to what was happening with our property.
We refer them in the highest regard and will undoubtedly have all of our future business.
We believe in using the best of the best and have unconditional confidence in Andrew and The Condo Group Real Estate and will gladly give your name to anyone interested in selling their condo.
We recently listed our rental property with The Condo Group Real Estate. Tony and his team were extremely efficient and professional with helping us set the price, market the property and make the sale of our house. As a result we sold quickly and very near to our asking price. We would highly recommend them!
HUGE thank you to Chris Gill and his amazing, efficient and professional team at The Condo Group Real Estate for not only selling our condo in an hour, but for also finding us the perfect house in one week during a crazy paced market! This was a very overwhelming process for me, and they held our hands, working day and night, to make this dream of ours happen. We are forever grateful for all you have done for us!
Thanks so much Chris! You’ve made this whole process so seamless & so easy, it was a great experience!
Over the past thirty years I have bought and sold homes in Victoria with various realtors, but this was the first time I have used the Condo Group, and I can now say I am a loyal customer. The service provided by Mike and his team was professional, timely and honest. As an out of town owner, their use of technology to process documents and keep me up to speed was especially appreciated. Marketing of my property was targeted and generated a lot of showings, follow up was thorough and accurate and best of all, the final transaction was trouble free thanks to Mike’s perseverance. I will most definitely use the Condo Group again.
Just wanted to drop you a quick note and say how much we enjoyed working with you. Thank you for the professional, friendly service and great result.
Mike Pearce and The Condo Group Real Estate made my downsizing effort quick, easy and very beneficial. Mike is very much in touch with the market. He had motivated contacts that were wanting to buy and sell in the very product that I was buying and selling. Our closing was effortless, and did I mention, quick? We must have set a record time for my listing, showing and accepted offer on both selling my unit and purchasing another. Well done and extremely professional.
We recently purchased a new home with Mike and were extremely impressed with his professionalism, attention to detail, and forthright concern for our best interests. We felt that Mike was committed to finding the best home for us, not just the first one that met our requirements. He took us through the purchase process carefully and skillfully, ensuring that all our questions were answered, and any reservations were resolved before finalizing the process. We wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone looking to buy, and, if the time comes for us to sell, we will absolutely look to him for assistance with that process as well.
Thank you so much, what a great job & a great team! Kudos, I’m a happy customer. You were organized, polite, accommodating, motivating & effective.
I couldn’t ask for a better realtor than Chris Gill. He made things happen on the hour, and after hours. He made my dreams come true with my new condo, and at the end, I gained a new friend.
My real estate adventure started when I got dreamy eyes for the new development at The Railyards – as a new first-time homeowner, the learning curve was steep.
As soon as I met Mike, my nervous feelings drifted away. I knew that I was in good hands and that I was working with someone who truly had my best interests in mind. Mike was responsive, caring, and most importantly, very honest. I could tell that his main priority was to find a condo that worked well for me and never felt pressured to rush into anything. He did his due diligence and found out pertinent information to ensure that I had a well-rounded, wide-eyed view of the properties I was seeing.
Mike brought a lot of knowledge to the table and he also brought a lot of fun. After I found the perfect place for me, Mike provided guidance through each step of the purchase process and made sure that I was comfortably moved into my space. In my opinion, he went above and beyond.
Mike is a gem of a realtor and has earned a raging fan. I would, and will, recommend him to any of my friends or family members who are looking to find a great place to purchase in Victoria.
Our realtor provided good and timely advice throughout the selling and purchasing process. He and his team helped us get a great sale price on our condo, and then helped us to find a gem of a home.
I have worked with The Condo Group Real Estate on a number of projects and have always found them to be very professional and knowledgeable about the condo market.
Very responsive, honest and helpful. The support staff were awesome.
Fantastic service and the best knowledge/experience in the Victoria condo segment. If you’re thinking of buying or selling a condo, you’d be silly to go through anyone else.
You were able to find us the best condo we could possibly afford, in a short period of time, without seeing a lot of places. You already realized what our needs were.
Thank you again Andrew!
Thanks Andrew; you are such a helpful person indeed. I’ve worked with many realtors over the years and honestly you are the calmest and best informed realtor I’ve ever worked with.
A big THANK YOU to Mike Pearce, Chris Gill & The Condo Group Real Estate team for selling our Victoria townhouse only one day on the market and for almost full asking price! If you are looking for a strong real estate team in Victoria I would highly recommend The Condo Group Real Estate.
We liked working with someone who was so knowledgeable about condos. Our agent was very easy going in his approach. As out-of-country purchasers, we feel he went the extra mile to make sure things went as smoothly as possible for us. His assistant Kaley was also great.
Mike was patient and worked with me even though a move to Victoria wasn’t certain. Once we started the ball rolling with the unit I wanted at The Railyards, he was amazing to communicate with and I always felt he was looking after me.
Mike’s responses to any enquiry were instant. He never gave up the mission to find our sons first home in BC. It wasn’t his biggest Condo Sale by far, that didn’t seem to matter, we got VIP treatment from beginning to end. Mike Janes and the team at The Condo Group Real Estate are AMAZING. Thank you so much.
In August of 2014, I contacted The Condo Group Real Estate when looking for a place to buy in Victoria. The agent assigned to help me in my search provided to be a true professional; never pressuring any decisions, always responsive to numerous inquiries and very knowledgable about the market. I did not feel ready to transition to the West at that time, but I was kept informed of available properties throughout 2015 when I returned to Victoria. Again, he was extremely helpful and patient, making the process pleasant and stress free.
I am happy to say that I am now the owner of a condo which is the right fit. I would highly recommend The Condo Group Real Estate for any real estate needs.
The Condo Group Real Estate had amazing communication skills and always kept in the loop and were available to answer any questions. They made my first home buying experience easy to understand with no pressure or intimidation. I could not have asked for a better experience! I am beyond excited to call The Railyards my new home and would recommend The Condo Group Real Estate to anyone looking to buy in Victoria. The entire process was informative, enjoyable, and exciting; wouldn’t have done it any other way. Thanks Team!
I especially appreciated Andrew’s personal yet professional demeanour. He is well spoken and articulate when explaining real estate transactions, and he complements that with a great sense of humour. Also, the office staff at The Condo Group Real Estate were always organized and efficient.
Andrew offered insightful information regarding current trends in real estate. He felt more like a consultant than a salesperson.
We just wanted to thank you, Mike, and the rest of the team at The Condo group once again for your very impressive service in the promotion and sale of our condo in Brentwood Bay. It was a seamless process with excellent communication, planning and prompt feedback to us and within your organization.
Your calm approach, professionalism and knowledge about real estate and marketing are strong assets in making your clients feel well taken care of. The degree of detail that the office handles certainly minimizes the stress for the client.
We are both happy to provide a very strong recommendation to future clientele based on our experience with The Condo Group Real Estate.
Andrew helped us with our purchase. They were always quick to respond with any questions or concerns we had and made the transaction as smooth as possible. Extremely happy with them both.
Kevin Jones was a fantastic agent. He was friendly and helpful and listened to what I was looking for. He was knowledgeable about condos and stratas, which was a new experience for me.
You made the process of selling my condo so easy and seamless and I really appreciate your stellar help. I may be biased but you guys truly are the best in the biz!
My realtor was very professional and full of information. I was extremely impressedwith The Condo Group Real Estate. They used every angle of marketing to their advantage and didn’t miss a beat. They have a huge online presence and following. Teamwork and communication were constant, and I always knew what was going on.
Kevin Jones was fantastic. He called me immediately when the condo that I liked was available. The Condo Group Real Estate is definitely the way to go.
It was great to know that there was a team working behind the scenes to help me sell and buy. Mike Pearce was great, and helped me to navigate a challenging purchase.
The Condo Group Real Estate does not just provide outstanding service and expertise for those buying and selling condos – they were absolutely amazing at helping me sell my house, too! Chris Gill went above and beyond and took care of every detail from the moment I decided to list. He was remarkably patient in responding to all my questions and concerns, as well as making time to work around my busy work and mama schedule. The house sold two days after it was listed, and Chris continued to be supportive at every step after that until it closed earlier this month. Shout out to Tony Zarsadias too – both of these guys were incredible at not just taking care of all the details of the house sale but also of me – they regularly checked in to see how things were going in the mix of emotions that comes along with selling a house. Thank you, Chris and Tony – and the rest of the team at The Condo Group Real Estate (especially Amy!) for EVERYTHING! I’d recommend checking them out for any of your real estate needs.
I liked the ease of notifications for showings, the online feedback portal, the prompt and friendly communicationsfrom my agent and all the support team, and I liked that everyone seemed organized in terms of paperwork and dates.
Chris Gill and his team worked very hard for us and made selling easy . I also appreciated Chris’s extensive market knowledge which allowed us to fetch top dollar.
Chris made us feel like we were his only clients, he always responded to us immediately. Even if he couldn’t answer our question right away, he always acknowledged it and told us he’d look into it and let us know. He was soknowledgeable and supportive, absolutely the best professional we dealt with through the whole buying process
Our realtor was flexible; spent time understanding our goals and provided good pre-sale advice. Also, The Condo Group Real Estate’s presence on the Internet leads potential buyers to them and to their customer’s listings.
Mike Pearce was a very knowledgeable condo expert. We really appreciated his no-nonsense approach and experience in the field.
I really enjoyed working with Mike! He was always available to chat and got back to me right away when I messaged him. He made the whole experience fun and easy. I never felt out of the loop or overwhelmed by anything. I’d recommend Mike to anyone looking to buy or sell their condo.
I especially liked being informed of every viewing and the potential buyers comments on the condo. Mike is a keeper, he worked really hard and never showed any frustration!
Every aspect was most efficiently handled. Chris was available at a moment’s notice for us. Your office staff could not have been more helpful. We understand why your firm is one of the up and coming real estate companies in the Greater Victoria area.
Chris was a dream to work with. He made sure I understood what was going on at all times, discussed decisions with me and explained my options … and of course ended up getting me a totally brilliant deal!
My wife and I found Mike to be very organized in a very crazy business. There was nothing he didn’t have an answer for. He is knowledgeable in all aspects of his job. He also has a great sense of humour, which helps when you are dealing with clients under a lot of pressure to find the right place at the right price.
The force of team members to help you with the process from beginning to end. Love your savvy use of social media!
Above all, Chris and Tony’s knowledge of the market and confidence in their work was the best part of our experience. Secondly, their excellent patience for our personal house shopping process and understanding of what we wanted made us feel comfortable and let us enjoy a potentially stressful process.
I was very happy with how responsive Jeff was and appreciated the communication throughout the closing process. Fantastic client service from start to finish!
I can’t tell you how much we love our new home and neighbourhood. We went to the Buccaneer Days midway the night before we left and the kids had a blast. Our neighbours are awesome. We seriously couldn’t be happier.Thanks so much for helping us find the perfect place for us.
Our needs were met quickly and efficiently. We got to view what we wanted, and were given realistic advice and information. We didn’t have a clue going into this so it was nice to be walked through it.
We were very pleased with our experience working with Mike Pearce. He was a calming influence in a hectic time. He sold our house fast and then helped us find the perfect condo. We have recommended him to our friends and they are very pleased with him.
Chris was patient and understanding about what we were looking for and what our time constraints were. Chris has a great personality. He is not arrogant or obnoxious. He is humble and has a great sense of humour. He knows Victoria well and speaks about it proudly. He gave us great advice along the way and was honest with us. He was extremely professional. He stayed in touch with us over the years and did “extras” for us with regards to the closing since we were out of country at the time. We have already referred Chris to friends who are considering moving to Victoria- told them they would be well looked after if they choose Chris as their real estate guy.
Chris was very knowledgeable and Personable. He is was always happy to help and the office was very efficient and had excellent customer service.
Everything was timely, professional and never was a question left unanswered. The responses were quick and accurate. It was easy to trust Kevin. It was the best restate experience I’ve ever had.
Chris Gill and The Condo Group Real Estate were extremely professional and made the selling process very easy. They anticipated everything and took care of so much. I’m truly grateful for the positive experience.
Andrew, and later Mike, were exceptionally professional. They immediately built a great sense of trust with us.
I really felt comfortable talking with Brad. He eased any worries I had about selling and explained things in full detail. I would highly recommend him to my friends.
We just want you to know how much we appreciate all that you have done for us, first of all in finding the perfect condo for us, then in going the extra mile by selling our home. We admire the honesty and integrity you displayed in your interactions with us. We feel there were some challenges along the way for you, but you were able to bring this to a successful conclusion. We have no hesitation in passing along your name to anyone looking for help in selling their home.
Chris Gill, your entire team is amazing! Very professional and fully entrenched in using every aspect of selling available. I am completely thrilled with the end result given the tough current market. I can’t think of a single thing to suggest, everything was handled perfectly in every way. Thank you so very much!
Jeff is an outstanding, knowledgable realtor and was helpful and supportive throughout this process. I have worked with other realtors over the years, but Jeff is exceptional – so lucky for us!
The sale went so smoothly! Andrew Hrushowy was so easy to communicate with – and I loved the pictures, they made the house look amazing!
