Doug is a very personable and knowledgeable Realtor. I found Doug be very thorough and has a keen eye for all the small details. Doug really listens to you and what you want whether it be buying or selling a home. He really does go the extra mile and that in itself made me feel that I chose the right Realtor!

I have had the pleasure of working with Doug for my multiple real-estate transactions over the past couple of years. Doug provides a personalized service - more so than other realtors I have done business with. Doug is trustworthy and will leverage his extensive experience in the industry and in life to help you realize the best-case scenario for you and your family. His attention to detail and ability to get to the root of your requirements is a great asset. I highly recommend Doug for any of your realtor needs.

We recently had Doug work with us for two real estate transactions. He was knowledgeable about the market and we felt confident in having him take the reins. Doug was personable and communications with him were always smooth. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Doug to anyone looking for a realtor. We enjoyed working with him and would call on him again to help us with what can be a stressful time. Thanks Doug!

Thank you, Doug for helping us with our first experience in the real estate market! Starting out, we were both a little unsure of the process but with Doug's help we feel confident in our purchase and are now loving our new home. From our first viewing straight through to the final negotiations Doug was a huge asset. Communication was clear and constant, no question seemed insignificant to ask. Working with Doug really felt like working with a friend. We felt that he always had our best interest in mind and always welcomed any of our requests. We are both very happy with the experience and highly recommend his service. Thanks Doug!

Doug’s professionalism was very much appreciated. Whenever I had a question, he was there for me in a very short time. Doug went above and beyond his duties and kept us informed at all times. I certainly would not hesitate to ask Doug to take on another sale on my behalf.

We really can’t say enough about just how happy we were with Doug Solbrekken as our realtor! Doug recently helped us sell a condo in Kitsilano. And he was extremely helpful, reliable, always available, professional, and was a great communicator throughout the entire process. Doug initially laid out a sales and marketing strategy that best reflected the property and current market conditions. Once we were in agreement on strategy and price he enthusiastically advertised the sale using multiple online and social media platforms ensuring we had the biggest audience possible. He created an amazing video promoting not only the home but also highlighting many of the local neighborhood attractions. He did this by walking through our neighborhood himself and by creating a segment of the video with his own personal drone (Doug has an advanced drone license for the city of Vancouver and is a previous helicopter pilot and instructor so he’s more than qualified here :-). And then he followed up by offering several open houses. Doug then followed up all of the showings and open houses with phone calls to the other realtors to get their thoughts and feedback. He contacted us frequently to let us know how things were going and what the feedback was on the viewings. He managed our expectations throughout the process and was able to relay the current state of the market in an ongoing manner. He ensured we were a part of the process, and was a strong advocate and agent for us in his communications with other realtors and their potential buyers. Doug guided us through the back-and-forth of the offer and counter-offer process. He always had sound advice based on his extensive knowledge of the real estate market, yet also took a personal approach and really listened to our input, concerns and questions.
And importantly although this was a smaller property compared to other properties he has sold he still brought ALL of his skills, professionalism and enthusiasm to our real estate sale.
All in all Doug was a fantastic realtor! And we would very highly recommend Doug for anyones real estate needs.
