Moving from a more affordable Okanagan market to Victoria, my wife and I had to learn about the potential neighbourhoods for our family, adjust our expectations on price and availability, and get up to speed on common issues with older homes. This put us at an initial information disadvantage that could have been exploited by a real estate agent trying to simply ‘close a deal’. As luck would have it, we met Andrew. He always been very patient and honest, and has worked hard to understand our needs. After over a year of looking at homes, we my wife and I both consider Andrew Plank a friend. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a patient and understanding realtor that is willing to invest the time necessary to help them find the right home.

Andrew is clearly an amazing realtor and very respected by his colleagues and clients. He is easy to talk to and fun to be around.

Thank you so much for all of your help. Your walking me through each step made it a very straight forward process and your kind approach turned a scarey feat into a dream. I will certainly recommend you to my friends.

Many thanks for your help with our housing follies! I appreciated your informed & candid approach, and your sensitivity to our needs. Regards, Will

[We] are still thrilled about our home. I am surprised at how happy I am here. It is the first place we have lived that truly feels like our home – and not just because we bought it 🙂 – it just feels right.

Thank you for your wise counsel (even to talk me out of foolish purchases that would have earned you commission), your endless patience and willingness to traipse through dozens of homes over many months to find the perfect one, your unshakeable optimism that I would find just the right home even when I had given up hope, and all your tireless support during my protracted pursuit to find a home of my own. The boys and I are so excited to start moving in next week!

My wife and I have bought and sold several properties in several provinces with varying levels of satisfaction with the services provided by the realtors we had carefully chosen. We were tremendously appreciative of the service we received from Andrew Plank and his supporting staff. His understanding of the current Victoria real estate market, and his strategic approach to sales in our neighbourhood proved to be invaluable! His marketing plan was clear, systematic and effective. Since our property sold within six days of listing, and above asking price, we can only confirm our earlier opinion that Andrew has superior negotiating skills, and is undoubtably one of the best realtors serving Victoria. His pleasant demeanour (during our almost daily communications), patience and overall good humour enhanced each step of the home buying and selling experience. We were never in doubt that he was looking after our best interests at all times. Andrew guided us patiently and effectively through each of the electronic processes, his professionalism apparent at each step. We would have no hesitation at all in recommending Andrew to anyone who is looking for a specialist in the real estate market who will look after their best interests during the home buying and selling process. We certainly will use his services again should the opportunity present itself!

Andrew, I am most pleased with the services that you provided for the sale of the apartment. Your assistance in the valuation and the negotiations with the buyers was greatly appreciated. As well, the fact that you kept me informed throughout the sale process was most helpful when “decision time” came. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to any prospective clients.

We were very fortunate to have Andrew acting for us on both the sale and purchase of homes last year. Our home was marketed effectively leading to a quick sale, and the details of the sale handled professionally. He took a great deal of time to determine our new home needs and searched out exactly the right property for us. We were able to buy our home in a competitive market solely due to Andrew’s diligence in bringing potential properties to our attention quickly. Now settled happily in the ideal home, we look forward to dealing with Andrew again on our next real estate transaction! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJtPFkkqgNU

We strongly would recommend you. We were impressed Andrew, and really appreciated your professionalism and the excellent service you provided. Your honest advice and timing to put our house on the market was right on! The recommendations and suggestions you gave us after the sale were also very helpful to keep focused. We strongly will recommend your services to others in need of an excellent Real Estate Agent.
