Shane Parent / Edmonton Reviews

<p><br /> After twenty two years of marriage, I found myself needing a great divorce lawyer, and an equally great realtor. A good friend said he'd get me a realtor, and a little while later, I got a call from Shane Parent. He explained how he got my phone number, and we chatted for a bit, so he could get an idea as to what I was looking for. I was not yet ready to look at houses, but he set me up with an automated e-mail notification, so I was able to start getting an idea as to what was out there. I had not lived in Edmonton before, so I also needed to find out about the different neighbourhoods, which he patiently helped me with. Over the course of the four months we worked together, I changed what type of house I wanted to buy a couple of times, and each time Shane adjusted his search for me, so I kept getting daily e-mails as to houses that would work for me. At times I would get discouraged, but then I'd get new e-mail notification, and I was able to focus on what I needed: a home for my daughter, myself and our two dogs. When it came time to start looking at houses, Shane was awesome. He patiently drove my daughter and myself around Edmonton looking at different properties in several different neighbourhoods, and explained what each area had to offer. He pointed out some of the "guy" things in the houses that I was considering, such as electrical panels, foundations and pipes, where I was looking at the kitchen cupboards, closets and ensuites! This was one of the most stressful times in my life, and Shane brought sensitivity and a great sense of humor to my situation. He was so patient with me, and I felt very at ease with him. Before too long, I was under amazing pressure to buy a home and get out of the marital home very quickly, so Shane, my daughter and I headed out with one goal: to buy my home, one that I could move into quickly. It seemed that there were so many things working against me, but Shane was very up beat, and confident that I would do it. He showed me a property that I'd not checked out on line, and it was perfect!! We looked at several other houses that day that I thought would work, but none of them did. The first house that I looked at that day is now my beautiful home. It was vacant, so I was able to take possesion in three weeks, which was what I needed. It is everything I was looking for in a home, I am so happy here. I had bought several houses in the past, but always with my then husband. Being a first time home buyer was rather daunting, but he explained everything to me, and never once made me feel that I was asking a stupid questions. Shane was there for the home inspection, and once again he displayed great patience and honest concern for me. He wanted to make sure that I got the best deal, and I did. I would confidently recommend Shane and his Platinum Team to anyone buying or selling.</p>

<p><br /> After six years in my first home, it was time to upgrade. With two dogs the previously perfectly small yard was no longer sufficient and it was time to move into a single family home. Shane helped me buy my first house so it was only right that he be there when I sold it. Shane was patient, understanding and helpful. He helped me through the initial dry spell and was there when the sale suddenly took off in record time. Within 34 days I sold my duplex and bought a bungalow. Shane was there through every step. Couldn't have done it all without him! And his housewarming gift (kitchen shears and cheese spreader/knife) was perfect as I had packed away all my utensils and literally couldn't have eaten without it the first day!</p>

<p><br /> We were looking to upgrade from a small condo to our first house, and we were nervous! Shane came highly recommended from a close friend, and it was quickly clear why. Shane is super friendly and a complete professional. He listened very closely to our needs, and all of his suggestions made us very comfortable with him. With all the trust we had in Shane our nerves quickly left us, and we are now ecstatic to be living in our new home! We would recommend Shane and his team to all of our family and friends, and we would work with the River City team again in a heartbeat!</p>

<p><br /> Working with Shane over the last few months has been fantastic. As a new family our goal was to find something move in ready with all the room we could ever need for a growing family of 3. We were pretty indecisive with our "dream" home and Shane remained patient while we weeded out all the different properties we asked him to find us! In the end we couldn't be happier with our new home and the service that was provided by Shane and the Platinum Team!. Thank you!! - Kyle & Tamara</p>

<p>Working with Shane Parent to buy and sell our home was a great decision! Together we found a house that we loved and made it our home. My husband and I and our two baby girls lived there for just over a year. We decided to build a house in another city and needed to sell our current home quickly. Shane listed our house for us and within two days on the market, we had received multiple offers! We accepted an incredible offer and could not be more pleased with the outcome. We recommend using Shane Parent to anyone we know looking to buy or sell their home. Thank you Shane! - Kaele and Dustin Poburan</p>

<p>We were thinking out loud, talking to some friends about upgrading our house for something a little bigger, We were given Shane's name right away from one of our friends that had used Shane in the past and was very pleased.</p> <p>We met with Shane and two other top agents to discuss selling our home, He was the most energetic, informative and prepared realtor we met, Shane answered all our questions promptly and did not make us feel silly for asking what might seem like simple questions. He put us at ease knowing that he was working hard for us so we did not have to worry about anything.</p> <p>Shane kept us informed and up to date throughout the entire process and explained everything that was going to happen. We had a Quick and Successful sale with trouble free negotiations. There were no surprises." "No one we know will Buy or Sell without meeting with Shane first. - Sean and Angela Korsan</p>
