I am the Enduring POA (power of attorney) for a senior, my 84-year-old brother-in-law. Doug helped me understand the challenges of dealing with a senior that had not sold in decades, and the emotional side of letting go of life-long items. Doug's knowledge, insight and experience was invaluable to me. He reviewed the offers, guided me through the process, and readily answered any questions I had. Doug is a true testament to his profession. Thank you, Doug.

Doug showed a deep understanding of the unique needs and concerns of my parents, who are seniors. Even with a language barrier, he took the time to listen attentively to their preferences and priorities, ensuring that every step of the selling process was tailored to their needs. His patience and empathy made the entire experience stress-free for myself and my parents. I really appreciated his solid knowledge of the local real estate market which allowed us to sell the house quickly and at a price we were happy with. I would recommend Doug to anyone in need of a real estate agent, especially those with elderly loved ones.

My drivers license tells me I am a senior, I live alone, and am still working. My wish list to Doug for a new home was - close to work, balcony, parking, budget, and he found it. His attention to new listings and his relationships with other Realtors got me an early viewing. I always felt I was in good hands with Doug. His knowledge, connections, and work ethic made the whole process a pleasure. Doug still makes house calls! Thanks, Doug!

I am a Senior with mobility challenges. Doug Williams sold my Olympic Village condo for me. in only 14 days, when a fair cash offer was received and accepted. This suited me very well as I had found a suitable retirement home which was holding a unit for me to lease. Friends told me I had been "lucky" to sell so quickly. I attribute the satisfactory outcome mainly to the careful and diligent work Doug did before placing the unit on the market. For example, he took photos of the unit and surrounding neighbourhood, drew up floor plans, arranged for cleaners and even hired, at his own expense, a stager. This person recommended small items inside the unit be removed, but I was always consulted about the items to be removed. Doug did a thorough analysis of similar units before a decision was made on the asking price. The main reason I enjoyed working with Doug was that he was always very thorough and considerate. If a meeting was planned to review details, he was always punctual and friendly.

I was an enduring POA (power of attorney) over a parent during some stressful times. Doug was sensitive to the situation and handled our family with the utmost of care. I spoke with two of his former clients I personally knew from our area. They both assured me that Doug was a top-notch guy and had an encyclopedic knowledge of all the peripherals to the business of selling or buying of one’s home when helping seniors. Doug was tremendously proactive, he had professional photographs, floorplans, city maps, and zoning details on what can be built in place of our home. Also, he was always responsive, prompt, and nice. I was very happy with Doug and our house selling experience.

As an out-of-town Executor of a complex estate in Vancouver, it is very important to have a knowledgeable Realtor working with you through the process. Doug took his time to understand the needs and concerns in selling the estate condo while always treating me with utmost respect. Doug assisted me in some very difficult decisions before the condo was ready to be sold. His vast knowledge, compassion and understanding of the emotional challenges I faced as an executor helped me navigate through the steps, resulting in a successful outcome. He was there every step of the way in his calm, reassuring, patient manner and stayed in constant communication with me throughout the process. He kept track of every detail before and after transaction was completed. Doug has your best interest at heart and you would want on your side to help you through the complexities of selling an estate property.
