Bret Schillebeeck PREC* Reviews

I was a first-time home buyer and, right from my initial interview with Bret, I knew I wanted to work with him! He gave me more than an hour of his time upfront to provide a thorough introduction to the world of buying a home and let me know exactly what I was undertaking. Bret has, in my opinion, the perfect mix of professionalism and expertise/experience, combined with a genuine caring and detail-oriented approach. He challenged me early on to figure out my top priorities, then during subsequent home tours, he worked with me to understand my reactions to and feelings about each new place, and supported me while I worked through my issues related to competing priorities, ultimately helping me to fine-tune my wish list. And, wouldn't you know it, Bret knew I was going to love the place I ended up buying before I even saw it! Bret definitely goes above and beyond in his efforts to support his clients. He negotiated a reduction in price after the seller countered my offer. Moreover, knowing that I would love to get a dog in the near future, he made sure that the bylaw amendments being made to my new strata included specific provisions for owners to have one pet. Bret also works with a great team of people, from his office to his recommended network of mortgage brokers and home inspectors. I really could not have bought my dream home without Bret's support and connections. Thank you, Bret, your invitation to my house-warming party is forthcoming! Stay tuned :)

We have known Bret for 10 years now. We met him at an open house and didn't know how to buy a place. He offerred to help us, He taught us what we needed to know and we bought a place. We considered selling a few years ago and he helped us through that and we decided against selling. Just this past month we decided it was time and we listed. He gave us very clear expectations and answered all our questions all along the way. We are now looking to buy and will continue to use and trust Bret through it all. Can't recommend him enough.

Bret was incredibly professional and his knowledge of our area and the City in general was great. He communicated the process of selling and buying clearly and made sure any questions we had were answered. His demeanor helped us feel at ease and comfortable during the whole process. I can't recommend him enough.

<p>I chose to work with Bret again as I found him to be a fantastic negotiator, great communicator and of the utmost stand ards ethically. He was that in spades again! He is current in the market in this area and was able to provide needed advice and guidance while allowing all decisions to be mine. I'm grateful for his representation.</p>

We've known Bret for 16 years since we bought our first home. During this time, Bret was always available to answer my questions about what was going on in the market, insight into strategies of what to do with our home etc. It took us a LONG time to act but we were finally ready to purchase a new home. Bret assisted us every step of the way answering a million questions and guiding us through the purchase process. He helped us find and close on our dream home. He worked closely with the listing agent and provided a great deal of insight on what we needed to do in order to secure this property, calculate all the fees and arranged extra site visits to help us measure up and prepare to move in. We're so glad we maintained our relationship with Bret and while we don't plan on moving again anytime soon, we would highly recommend Bret to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.
