Dawna Candelora Reviews

Dawna was down to earth, and easy to communicate with throughout my entire experience - I always felt as though she was transparent with me and was looking out for my best interests. She went above and beyond to help me get the house I wanted, by thinking outside the box. When things took an unexpected turn, Dawna was calm and collected. Her knowledge, experience, and confidence were very reassuring for me.

Dawna was excellent! Not only that she guided us through the real estate process in a market we were not that familiar with (we bought online as we were forced by the COVID epidemiological circumstances) but she actually helped us with the set-up logistics: she waited for the movers to drop our furniture, helped us getting a tenant downstairs, and helped us have the internet se-up! We didn’t know anyone in the city and we couldn’t have managed to do this move, from Toronto to Halifax, without her help. Dawna was always available to answer our questions and she was always frank when we were seeing houses online- meaning, she would tell us up front if something is overpriced and we shouldn’t go further with an offer. And more importantly, the house we ended up buying- we actually negotiated it down, this in a market where almost every property in South End Halifax goes through a bidding war! It was a pleasure to work with Dawna and will contact her anytime again when the time comes to sell!

Dawna is an absolute pleasure to work with. What makes her stand out among other agents is that she always gets back to you ridiculously fast. No matter what time of day I have a question, I know I can message her and expect a response quickly. Besides her ability to get back to you promptly every time, her patience is unmatched and I've never felt rushed or pressured. Looking forward to many more transactions with Dawna! :)

We first met Dawna Candelora when purchasing our first home in Dartmouth, NS. We had 5 days to purchase, and Dawna made sure that happened. In our first day, we viewed over a dozen homes, and made an offer. Dawna’s expertise on negotiating was key for us, as this would be our first purchase. Her calmness, and knowledge of the market was very reassuring, and after a couple rounds of offers, we had secured our first home! The experience that was had in our first transaction with Dawna, made it an easy choice when selecting a selling realtor 5 years later. From start to finish, very professional, knowledgeable and calm. Our first meeting consisted of pricing, looking at other homes in the same price range and the marketing strategies she would use in selling our home. In under the average listing days for our area, our home was sold. We continue to recommend Dawna to those that are moving to Nova Scotia, and hope for a move back in retirement where we will find our forever home!

Dawna came to us as a recommendation, and we couldn't have been happier with the service she provided. Our experience was an interesting one given she helped us purchase from a private sale, and she sheltered us from a lot of the hassle/ negotiation from the sellers. Dawna was always responsive, professional and personable. We would recommend her to any of our friends and family!
