You’re probably so used to compliments like this but we want to extend anyway our sincerest appreciation to you and the Hodgins Team.

When we approached you almost a month ago, we were contemplating of selling our home but unaware of market conditions, selling price, preparation works, and other stuff that seem like a mountain of considerations in the selling process. You showed us the selling price of homes in the neighborhood and expressed that it would take approximately 30-days to sell our home. We doubted both price and timing numbers but nevertheless, went to the next steps. Amazingly, we listed our house above the price that what we were expecting . . . sold it for more than the price we listed it at . . . in 10 days! Thank you!!!

Your overall approach is very systematic and it made the whole process swift and smooth for our family as possible.

The initial discussion, staging, preparations, listing, showing, and negotiations have been very professional and every word you gave us even though they were not promises, turned out to be commitments. Please extend our thanks to your team for the orderly coordination of showing schedules and open house and to your team of experts who helped us prepare the house. Thank you!

We recently listed our home with James Hodgins and were immediately impressed with James’ professionalism and market knowledge. Within several days of agreeing to list with James his entire team toured our home, provided excellent suggestions on prepping the house and began actively showing our home. Over the next several weeks James’ team provided us with excellent client feedback and a substantial offer. We were pleased as it was the highest offer for a house on our street to date.

Dear James,

We would like to extend our gratitude to you and your amazing team for making our first home selling experience easy, uncomplicated and pleasant. Selling a house with three little kids running around seemed like a daunting challenge but with your help and guidance we managed to sell our home in two weeks and a load was lifted off our shoulders.

Your advice and experience is exactly what we were looking for and we are so glad that we chose you to sell our house, you and your amazing team delivered exactly what was promised and in an even shorter time than we thought possible.

A friend had asked us who we were planning on listing with and when we said "James Hodgins" his response was "his signs go up and then a sold sign goes up a week later". You know that you have made a good decision when people make comments like this.

Thanks again for all your help, we will be sure to recommend your services to anyone we know that is considering moving.

Regards,

Ron & Helen Vukovic & The Girls

When making the important decision of selecting a realtor, we know who to call. James previously sold homes in our neighbourhood and came highly recommended! This affinity with our home’s natural setting and unique features was immediately evident. In only days James had created an extensive marketing campaign and sourced several of his own qualified buyers, one of whom purchased our home! Peace of mind plus!

Thanks James

It has been a great pleasure working with James Hodgins and his team. He is personable, efficient and creative in mapping out selling strategies. My sons and I greatly enjoyed our frequent dialogues on the phone during the five days period from listing until our property was sold. We believe he has put in a 101% effort in selling our home and that has brought forth the fantastic results of obtaining 101% of our asking price.

To The James Hodgins Team,
I would like to thank everyone for their excellent customer service from the listing to selling of our home. James Hodgins has carefully broken down all aspects of selling a home into manageable components which are handled by each member of his team. This system enables the sellers of a home have all their requests dealt with promptly by calling one telephone number. Ultimately, this system combined with James Hodgins' marketing approach for promoting the sale our home resulted in 3 offers on our home. In closing, I would recommend James Hodgins and his team to sell your home.
