Testimonials

"Living in Winnipeg with a condo to sell in Ottawa West presented significant challenges.  Deb and Dave met these challenges very well.  They are excellent communicators who listen carefully and provide timely practical advice, along with regular progress reports. Initially, they provided a detailed market evaluation and the condo sold higher than the estimate in a very competitive situation.  I highly recommend Deb and Dave for effective, trustworthy service in the selling of real estate.  Thanks a bunch!"

"Deb and Dave, words can’t express my gratitude.  There was potential for things to go very wrong.  Thank you so much for making this onerous task palatable...almost fun.  I could not have accomplished the sale of the house without your ongoing guidance.  I want to thank you for  your professionalism, your straightforwardness in all dealings and above all Deb for so patiently listening to me and answering all my questions...I know I had hundreds of them; specially when I was stressed.

My experience, to date, had been very limited when it comes to Real Estate and I want to thank you for making this whole process easy and above all a positive learning experience."

"We were transferred from the West Coast to Ottawa and needed to buy a new home.  I cannot believe how lucky we were to get Deb and Dave as our realtors.  They listened to what we wanted in a new house and asked what we had in our old house.  They searched through 100’s of listings and selected ones that were matches.  Deb sensed that while we liked some of the houses we first saw they were not going to be a “home” for us and she kept digging to find other options.  When we saw the home we ended up buying we knew it was the one but Deb insisted we see a few more to make sure.  She did not have to give up her time but in keeping to her true customer service she wanted to make sure we had seen every option so we would make the best choice for our family.  When we were faced with multiple offers on the house both Deb and Dave guided us through the process and offered invaluable suggestions that ensured our offer was selected.  Our whole family is excited to be moving to Ottawa into a dream home, all made possible by the tireless efforts of Deb and Dave.  I truly believe they set the standard for customer service for Realtors in Ottawa."

"A big thank you to Deb and Dave.  Not only are they both professional and knowledgeable, they make you feel that you are either their only client or one of very few.  The personalized service was excellent.  They understood well our needs and found us a home that met those. Both are patient and extremely client oriented.  It’s those little extras that make the difference between a good agent/broker and an excellent one.  We have no hesitation in recommending the ‘D’ team to others and certainly won’t hesitate to use their services in future (gosh – did we say that?)."

"This letter is to simply acknowledge one of the true “teams” at Royal LePage “Team” Realty.  David & Deb give a whole new meaning to the definition of real estate agent.  They are real in every way. I met David at an open house back in June, a house I was not even interested in buying. I talked to him about what I was looking for; he listened and heard what I had to say. As a team Deb & Dave directed and represented “me” in the successful purchase of my new home in Stonebridge. Not once during the purchase negotiations did they push to secure the listing of the house where I was living. I made the choice to list my Manotick home with Deb & Dave and it was the best of all choices.  The whole experience from start to finish was geared for success. They are a real team and through the whole process, they were working for me with respect and integrity.  They are two professionals. The house in Manotick sold and the “price was more than right”.  I said it before and I will say it again, someone was smiling on me when I walked into that open house in June and met David.  Thank you Deb & Dave for making this whole experience a pleasant one.  You are the best!"

"Selling a house is not a stressful experience when you enlist the right real estate people. We recently sold our home in Stonebridge. Deb Burgoyne and David Oikle were sensitive to our needs and worked with us to ensure our expectations were met. We were extremely happy with the results."

"Deb & Dave, you provided us with professional realty services of the highest caliber. This of course did not come as a surprise as we know that you strive for excellence in all that you do. We are thankful to have been the beneficiaries of your expert knowledge and enthusiasm and really can't thank you enough for the terrific job you did in handling the sale of our home."

" Working with Deb and Dave was a pleasure.  They were efficient and professional when we bought our new home and exceeded our expectations by selling our old house in less than a week for more than we hoped for.  We felt comfortable and confident throughout the entire process.  We would recommend them to anyone."

"As first time home buyers both my wife and I had a lot of questions concerning all facets of the purchase of our new home. In this respect, Deb & Dave were extremely helpful in aiding us to navigate this process and made every effort to make us feel comfortable and confident in our decisions along the way. With their expert help, we were able to find a home that was perfect for us, in a neighborhood that we love. Clearly, we have absolutely no reservations about recommending Deb & Dave; their attention to detail, dedication and expertise make them an ideal match for the first-time home buyer. We very much look forward to working with them in future."

" We would like to thank you once again for all of the effort you put toward our search for the "perfect duplex" over the past 2 years. At times it seemed frustrating but you persisted and we are very happy with the result. David is in a good environment and is happy to be on his own and much closer to the university.   We found that your knowledge of the bylaws of the city and personal finances was particularly reassuring and kept us from making errors in real estate judgement. Steve and I appreciated when you "went the extra mile" to help us secure people that would give us sound advice and your willingness to help us by attending meetings with contractors and assessors when we were unable to due to work obligations. Steve and I would not hesitate to recommend you or Deb to friends or family who are looking for real estate in the Ottawa area."

"This is our first home selling experienced and could not have asked for any better. We like the preparation of Deb & Dave - well researched prior to the price setting proposal. They kept us updated with comments from viewers at all time. We gladly recommend Deb & Dave to our friends and families for their service."

"Thanks Deborah & Dave for looking after selling our house. Our experience with you was magnificent and totally changed my perception of real state agents. Hanen and I were very impressed by your professionalism and your innovative way of doing business. As a project manager, I learned from you that project management could be applied to anything including real estate. I can tell you that this project was a success and we are grateful for that."

"I initially listed with another agent, and my home was on the market for 5 weeks with no results, few showings and no offers. I changed agents and listed with Deb & Dave on a Thursday night. My house was sold the following Tuesday, less than 5 days later. They promised they would "get right on it" and they kept their promise, with lots of great media exposure, and lots of showings.    I was more impressed with the fact that Deb & Dave took the time to get to know me as a person and not just a name on a listing. They are genuinely warm and friendly people, and very supportive. Deb & Dave kept in touch with me from the moment I listed until I moved  from my home to make sure everything was going smoothly and to offer any help I might need.   I would highly recommend them to anyone without hesitation. I could not have asked for better service, and I thank them for that."

"We sold two homes with Deb and Dave, each taking only a couple of days, not because we priced them too low, but because they read the market exactly right and positioned them perfectly.  Complicated transactions such as real estate only go smoothly when all the details are taken care of in a timely, professional manner, and both of our transactions were not only smooth but stress-free.  They made the process simple, kept us informed of the progress, and made sure we knew what each step was.  There were no surprises, no difficulties and best of all, we had a chance to work with genuinely nice people.  If we ever sell a house again, we know exactly where to go.

"Just a note to say thanks and appreciation for the efforts that you made in selling our house. We are more than pleased with the service you provided, constantly updating us on what was happening, regularly giving us feedback on viewings of our house, and generally just giving us the feeling that you were indeed working on our behalf.  As we have stated to both of you, we have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who might be looking for an agent. As a matter of fact, Vivian has already passed your name to someone who was looking for an agent in Barrhaven.  Again, many thanks."
