<p>I received a letter from Taras after my house failed to sell. The way that he wrote to us was very inspiring and impressive. It showed that he was very interested in the way my house was built and its Mediterranean / Santa Fe style. He asked if he could view my house, he told me that he could sell my property in no time. His knowledge about design and market value came definite out when he viewed the home for the first time.</p> <p>Taras, in a city of many realtors, specially stood out as he has a unique approach to real estate. After the initial viewing he followed up with two letters in a short space of time and insisted on our approval for the property listing. Not one of our previous realtors had ever approached us in a determined way to give us the service and attention we required. Our home had been on the market for several years, coming on and off the market.</p> <p>I was very happy with his mature approach, his excellent real estate marketing material, and his professional conduct in showing our home and dealings with all clients who came to see our home. Taras got us a full asking offer, negotiated smart and protected our interests throughout.</p> <p>I recommend Taras's expertise and energy to all future clients for this outstanding performance. His European background and his professionalism will be an asset for a quicker sale or assistance for finding the right home for you and the family.</p> <p>Alphons and Nel Witteman</p>

<p>Taras Kinash has been a fantastic realtor for myself & my family . Over the past 8 months, my parents and my sister have moved within Penticton and I have purchased a rental property in Penticton. Altogether Taras has assisted with 4 real estate transactions for us in that short period of time & every one has been FUN & put us WAY AHEAD. It is a pleasure to work with Taras, as he is the complete professional, with exceptional attention to detail, yet totally relaxed and INTERESTED in his clients. His background in architectural design comes through constantly in his sage advice to both buyers and sellers. I only wish we had met him earlier as my parents struggled to sell the old family home with multiple, seemingly indifferent local realtors. Thank you for everything ,Taras !!!</p>

<p>TARAS! Thank you for all your help and hard work! We found it!! I really appreciate everything you did on my behalf; all the house showings, all the late evenings explaining contracts, the house call and getting your car stuck in the snow. You are really awesome at your job! I know you'll go far. I'll recommend you to everyone. Thank you!</p>

<p>I looked at a few different properties in Penticton and Taras was able to identify important details in the properties history and point out significant positives and negatives to each property. He conducted himself in a professional manner and had enthusiasm for all aspects of the transaction. Taras worked hard during our process which included helping me close a deal while in Spain, he clearly enjoys being a real estate agent and it shows in his work!</p>

<p>Taras Kinash was instrumental to our successful purchase of a vacation property in Penticton. He listened carefully to all of our criteria and found properties that met or exceeded these needs. Viewing real estate with Taras was awesome! Taras was eager, energetic and always optimistic in our real estate search. Being an out of province Buyer, Taras kept in constant communication with us and made himself available to show property whenever we were in Penticton. Taras’s experience in property development and building design was very helpful in determining the potential of each home we viewed. It feels good to know that my real estate representative understands how homes are built, how they can be altered and all the planning and permitting that is required to remodel a home. He spent hours with us in one property helping us envision its potential redesign options. He was patient and gave us the space and time to make a decision on which property we eventually wanted to make an offer on. <br /> <br /> In terms of creating a purchase offer and the subsequent negotiations, Taras explained the real estate purchase process clearly to us and drafted a compelling offer/contract which we felt protected our interests. We appreciate that Taras presented our offer to the Sellers in person. Taras made a great impression with the Sellers, and he has informed us that the Sellers have referred him to other friends and family. We also had recommended Taras to a friend who purchased property with him. With our purchase offer, he was able to negotiate a great price and reasonable terms of sale for us. He was simply amazing in his congenial negotiation tactics and gave nothing less than 100% effort to make the process of purchasing our home hassle free and smooth. Our purchase was not straight forward yet Taras managed it professionally and calmly.</p> <p>Taras was thorough in researching the home, property history, making sure all permits were granted, and helped us assess the property for potential expansion in the future. We were very happy with the other professionals Taras referred to us, specifically our home inspector and lawyer. We felt assured that Taras performed the highest standard of due diligence.</p> <p>We are very satisfied with our lakefront home and enjoy everything that it has to offer. Taras helped us find a home that met our criteria and needs and as a result we are over the moon happy with the property. He is a great resource and his service extends beyond our sale date. Taras still communicates with us regularly and is always happy to help whenever we need assistance with our home, whether it is to recommend an air conditioner repair technician, or a dock installer, Taras is on hand. He is not only the real estate expert we trust, he is a friend who cares about our home and our life in the Okanagan. We are considering purchasing another investment property and Taras is our man!</p>
