Lisa

"Lisa, just a short note to thank you and your staff for all your hard work you did to sell our house. We know we made the right choice in Realtors and won't hesitate if we ever need your services again. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts."

-Brian & Lori

We have known Lisa since she became a licensed realtor in 1987. Our company, Erling Jensen Construction Ltd., built homes in the Salmon Arm/Shuswap area from 1972 to 1998, and we have always been satisfied with her real estate service.

Jerry

"Dear Jerry, this e-mail is to thank you and your staff for your exceptional service with the sale of our home. Both Brian and myself feel that your time and energy was priceless during our transfer. You made our worries disappear and our transition go as smoothly as possible. It was a stressful time for our family, being uprooted and
having so many dynamics to deal with, but yourself and Lisa did all the work for us.

I could certainly recommend (and have) your service to other members and friends that need a Realtor for the purchase or sale of a home. You're always available,

ready to talk, answer questions or bring someone by. You were there for us when we purchased our home and also with the sale. Lisa did a great job finding the perfect buyer.

We will definitely look you up should we be back in that neighbourhood. Thank you again for a job well done."

Sincerely, Julie and Brian Hunter

Over the past twenty years, we have bought and sold houses in both Canada and the US.  It is our experience that you will not find a harder working more dependable realtor than Jerry Emmel.

Jerry is more than just your average realtor he goes out of his way to insure you are well represented and comfortable. Through open discussion he assists you in discovering what houses are available and the one that meets your needs.  Jerry is i the business of selling houses but he does not try to sell you a house, he allows you to find the best home.

Gary

"We found Gary to be very efficient, doing due diligence to all paperwork. It was a pleasure to have him as our Realtor."

-Al and Phyllis Lloyd, Mara BC

"Just a note to thank you for finding us a house that suited our needs. I know it is your job, but you were a great support, especially since we had not moved in 32 years. So it was a huge decision for us. You managed to find us something that was in our price range and did not pressure us into something that we could not afford. And the more time that we have spent here, the more we like it. We wish you success and health in 2006."

Sincerely, Anne-Marie and Herb Young

"Dear Gary, when we decided to purchase a home in Salmon Arm, we chose Shirley Real Estate because you were on their team. We recognized your name from the years you were in Kamloops and knew that you were an ethical, competent person. True to your reputation, the service you have provided and continue to provide for us is exemplary. No one in our experience has listened to us with greater attention or followed through on our requests so quickly. When I missed a viewing appointment, you reserved judgment and made my apologies to an understandable upset tenant. We are completely happy with you and your support team within the Shirley Real Estate company. We have recommended your services and those of Shirley Real Estate many times and will continue to do so. Thank you for taking such good care of us. Mike and I wish you a very Merry Christmas and the best of everything in 2006."

-Aleta Wallace, Canoe, BC

Shirley

"When you aim to please, you don't miss! Thank you for all you've done to help us sell our "old" house and find our "dream" house. The next time we're in our yard - you need to be holding a glass of wine and not paperwork! Please come visit us soon!"

-Jennifer & Chuck

"Thanks Shirley, for all the extra things you did for me. A very Merry Christmas to you all."

From James P. Delaney

"Id like you do know how much I appreciated everything you did for me and how grateful I am for the things you still do. Thank you very much for the lovely gift. We will enjoy it over the holidays. Have a Merry Christmas."

-Cunold & Margaret Haller

We are looking forward to being your neighbors.  May I add that we've certainly appreciated your down-to-earth professionalism.  When we tell people here how you conduct your business they are envious. We have not had or hear of the same standards being set here in Greater Vancouver/Lower Mainland.  We have friends that may soon be looking to buy in Salmon Arm and they have your card.  They are just waiting to see if he gets the job.

-Suzanne Fitzpatrick

Tara

"Our Experience with Tara with our house purchase was outstanding. Tara was exceptional to work with, we were continually informed, our questions were answered completely and efficiently and the whole process was an enjoyable one. Tara particularly impressed me with her attention to detail, she researched and provided detailed answers to every concern and question we had."

-Jody Marshal and Marietta Bielecki-Marshal

"We have recently sold and bought properties through Tara Gallant. We found Tara a very hardworking, considerate and helpful Realtor. She really does her homework so there was no wasted time looking at unsuitable properties. We are very happy in our new home.
We have already recommended Tara to three people who are thinking of selling this year and will not hesitate to recommend her to others. You are very lucky to have her with you. Thank you Tara"

-Tina & Jack Keown

"Tara was a great asset when selling and purchasing our homes. She made every effort in comparing, gathering and issuing all information (and then some) about any questions or concerns we had. Her knowledge and dedication to detail while selling, buying, banking and transferring titles made our experience with real estate less complicated. Tara's enthusiasm, friendship, ethics and exemplary professionalism was a pleasure to have with us while going through this change in our lives."

-Cindy & David Howes

"We see Tara as a person who helped us at anytime under any circumstances regardless of our many wishes and questions. Tara has been extremely helpful, punctual and full of knowledge. Not to forget tech gift certificate she gave us for a local resort at which we had a wonderful time. We will definitely call Tara again next time we buy or sell a home."

Thanks Tara, Anna & Serge
