<p>I recently needed to sell a home in Victoria. But this had to be done remotely, as I live on the island on the other side of Canada !</p> <p>Through a lawyer we asked for three Comparative Market analyses from different sources. One in particular stood out from the others in the detail of its account of the house's strengths and weaknesses, the depth of its market analysis, and the many recommendations for improving the sale prospects. So, despite the fact that their initially suggested asking price was well below the other two, there was no hesitation in engaging the services of Rosemary Tulett and Gary Sims.</p> <p>And I have to say that the service they provided was OUTSTANDING. In the absence of the Seller much beyond the usual perforce fell to them. Although the house was almost empty there remained things to be removed and stored. There was cleaning and floor finishing to be organized. There was paintwork to be done, most of which Gary himself took on. Drapes to be bought, woodwork repairs, groundscaping and garden to be tended to; and all was done with the greatest care and attention to detail.</p> <p>They kept me constantly abreast of the progress by virtual means. And when the house finally went on the market it sold immediately, for well above the new (and much higher) asking price.</p> <p>I could not have had a better experience. I can recommend them without reservation.</p>

<p>Rosemary helped me purchase my first home and I cannot say enough about how knowledgeable she was of the area and process, as well as her attention to detail and patience. She took me to many viewings and was always on-time and well prepared, but at the same time I never felt pressure to rush on a purchase.</p> <p>Throughout the process, Rosemary was always extremely friendly and caring towards me and my family; you can tell that she genuinely cares for you and only wants what’s absolute best for her clients. It is also easy to see that Rosemary is extremely passionate for Real Estate and genuinely enjoys what she does.</p> <p>If you are in the market to purchase a home, I would absolutely recommend Rosemary and would not hesitate to reach out to her again in the future.</p>

<p>As retirees, relocating to Victoria from another province was daunting. Housing markets vary between cities and we weren't even exactly sure what we wanted or could afford to buy. We found Rosemary to be very personable and understanding of the challenges involved and, besides going to work right away seeking out real estate options for us, she shared her realtor knowledge and experience which aided greatly in our decision-making.</p> <p>Rosemary is absolutely thorough when it comes to the process and legalities involved with real estate. The property we purchased is situated on land sub-leased from other parties and therefore had additional layers of paperwork and negotiation. Rosemary ensured all the information was clear and that no process was overlooked which might have ramifications at a later date; all the "i's" were dotted and "t's" crossed! This was most reassuring.</p> <p>We purchased a modestly priced home (as per the Victoria market) however we really appreciated the fact that Rosemary gave us her dedicated attention as if though we had purchased a multi-million dollar property. No matter how big or how small your real estate needs are, whether buying or selling, Rosemary has proven that it is her CLIENT and his/her needs that come first!</p> <p>Rosemary kept us up to date with information every step of the way in a courteous and timely manner. If you are new to buying or selling property, rest assured Rosemary has the expertise to guide you through the process to make the whole experience as smooth and pleasant as possible. We highly recommend her service!</p>

<p>Rosemary helped me to sell my home and downsize into the purchase of a townhouse. She was knowledgeable and well researched throughout the process. I really appreciated all of the extra time she took to explain things throughout both the selling and buying of my home. She ensured that I understood each step in both processes and I never felt rushed. I would definitely recommend Rosemary for selling or buying a new home, especially for seniors, who might want the level of understanding and care for a senior’s specific needs that she can provide.</p>
