Anne Mainwaring

What do Clients Say?

Buying or selling a house is (obviously) a major financial and personnel decision for most people. My wife and I have been through the process five times in th epast 10 years with four different real estate agents in two major Canadian cities. we had such fantastic experience with Anne that I recommended her to a friend when he was considering selling his house. We greatlt appreciated the quality of her real estate services. This is why I recommend Anne. Anne has an understanding of the Vancouver, Canadian and International housing market. She appreciates that a house is an investment, as well as a home. She understands the big picture and pays attention to the smallest of details. When my wife and I interviewed her to determine if we wanted her to sell our house for us, she took us through the process she would use. Based on the interview we decided to hire her. She made a number of promises during the interview and she kept all of them as our agent.She informed us what she would do and what we would have to do. She worked hard and thoughtfully for us and so did the people with who she works (e.g. photographer). The process was educational and fun too. Our house was priced competitively, and fairly, and sold for above asking. We trusted Anne so much that we recommended her a friend who was thinking of selling his house. He picked her as his agent too and had a great experience. Anne also identified and intervewed a Sotheby's agent for us to consider in the city to which we were moving. We decided to select the agent she identified and had a very good experience with her too. I recommend Anne without reservation.

In Real Estate, there are professionals and then there are leaders. Anne is unquestionhouseably the latter. My experience with her as my agent was so good that it was completely unexpected, I was not aware selling a house could be such a great experience until now. She took care of every possible little detail I could think of and then on top of that got me over-asking on my property, which was competing with several others in the neighborhood. She is a wonderful person and a shrewd negotiator with an uncanny talent for knowing what buyers are looking for. There is no doubt in my mind that she among the best of the best. Give her a call and she will surprise you too!

Anne is amazing!When I decided to sell my house, I resigned myself to hope for the best. Anne Mainwaring changed my feeling of resignation to absolute confidence that I was indeed getting the best service imaginable! With her tireless hard work, the results speak for themselves! In the first few minutes of our first meeting, I could tell that I was dealing with a professional and ethical realtor. Anne put me at ease with her genuine personality, respect, and dedication. Clearly she loves making her clients happy. Everything she did was in my best interest and I could trust beyond a doubt in the advice she gave me. She made the entire process not only painless but enjoyable! She was equally as dedicated and helpful in trying to find my next home. Her connections with other realtors and representatives for developers, allowed her to give me expert and timely advice. As a result, I was able to purchase a beautiful and unique home. I sincerely appreciated Anne’s consistent attention and her extra efforts. I have recommended her to all my friends and family. When I decide to sell again, I will hire Anne without hesitation.

It is thanks to our real estate agent, Mrs. Anne Mainwaring, that the sale of our house in Quilchena, Vancouver BC, turned from an ordeal into a fairly pleasant, albeit serious, event. One only sells one's home a few times in their lives. It is natural to expect difficulties and it becomes essential to sell well especially when downsizing with the hope of receiving some "retirement" funds from the sale. The sale of of our home went through quickly based on the professional advice of Mrs. Mainwaring. With her guidance, we were able to overcome many serious difficulties, including a serious attempt to substantially lower the selling price on the basis of critical, although unsubstantiated, claims. We know that it was to the large extent due to the tactful and very patient efforts by Mrs. Mainwaring, as well as her command of the Chinese language, that we were able to maintain the stability of the initial offer as well as peace at home. Mrs. Mainwaring responded to all challenges without delay, she worked diligently, thoroughly and resourcefully until the problem was solved to our satisfaction, on several occasions, well past midnight.Our initial decision to contact Sotheby's Real Estate Agency was based on their well-known tradition of professional efficiency, honesty and high quality of work as serious international art auctioneers. We have learned that their representative agent, Mrs. Mainwaring, embodies not only these qualities but also charm, humour and generosity of spirit as well as an exceptional dedication to her task. We were happy with the process of selling our home as well as with the results.

Mr. and Mrs. B,

I would highly recommend Anne Mainwaring as a realtor for the following reasons:Professional:She is experienced and savvy with Vancouver real estate markets. She knows the fine points of deciding whether and how to make an offer, how to obtain financing, and how to rent out a property. She has reliable professionals she can recommend in related financial and legal fields. This is so important given the speed with which one needs to make these decisions in today's markets. She gives an honest and intelligent opinion, for example, telling you if she does not think something is a good idea based on her experience. She puts integrity before making a profit. She is punctual and reliable, quick to return calls and emails, abd very efficient with her time.Compassionate:She recognizes the stressful nature of a real estate transaction, i.e. making rapid, life-changing decisions involving large amounts of money. This stress is mitigated by her highly competent and compassionate advice.Charming!She possesses a delightful sense of humour, as well as a unique understanding of human nature. I found her to be very respectful, a good communicator who "get's people. She also dresses in a professional, fashion conscious way. She is pleasant, energetic, and fun too! In summary, I had a 100% fantastic experience dealing with Anne, and have no reservations whatsoever. She is a DIAMOND!!!
