"I had an absolutely fantastic experience using Kent McFadyen as my realtor. As a senior who is moving to assisted living I really appreciated his patience, how he explained all of the details to me and the friendly and accommodating demeanor he possesses really helped the process go smoothly. Kent's trustworthiness and commitment were clear throughout which was really important to me. The listing photos, videos, and brochures were beautifully done, and the open house was a huge success. Most impressively, he managed to sell the property well above the assessed value in only one day. I wholeheartedly recommend Kent's McFadyen if you are buying or selling a property anytime soon."
