Testimonials

We wish there were 10 stars cause 5 is just not enough! Blair and his team were awesome. Right from the first meeting to the last details of both buying our second home and selling our first – everything was exceptional. Blair knew the ins and outs of the market and was able to guide our family through challenging negotiations. He is super easy to work with and very respectful of our wishes, needs, and wants. Blair also has the keenest instinct on where we needed the hand-holding, cause there were moments we needed it the most 🙂

The service that he and House Selling Group provided was all around impressive. He build us a solid A-Team of lawyers, photographers, inspectors, etc who supported us throughout the scary and emotionally draining processes.

He is a joy to work with, professional through and through, so glad we were recommended to him, and a fantastic partner to wade through the crazy real estate land. We absolutely recommend Blair and the House Selling Group to anyone. We are so thankful to have met him.

We recently purchased our first property using Blair as our Realtor. He was incredible to work with. Blair worked quickly in a market that requires a proactive approach and always prioritized our best interests. He went above and beyond doing the necessary due diligence on multiple properties and never pushed us. We truly feel fortunate to have found Blair for our realtor.

Blair helped us purchase a new home and sell our townhouse. He was helpful, kind, and very responsive in an absolutely crazy housing market. I had almost given up hope of finding a new home when Blair suggested we look at the place we ended up purchasing. I highly recommend working with Blair, it’s been a great experience!

Selling or buying a house could be extremely stressful during this unprecedented crazy housing market.  Blair and his team helped me sell my house two weeks ago.  The entire process was very smooth, putting the stress to a minimal level.  I was informed of every step from the first meeting with Blair.  He is kind, honest, responsive and very patient.  I highly recommend him and the house selling group and will definitely use them again for my next real estate transaction.

Blair and his team are fantastic! They helped us to buy and sell our first home and I cannot recommend them enough. Blair is friendly, honest, and diligent. He is highly responsive; when I called/emailed with a question, I knew I would soon have a thoughtful reply. He made sure we were equipped with the right information to make the best decisions for our family. I felt confident with Blair and his team every step of the way.

We could not have asked for a better real estate agent to buy a new family home in Victoria than Blair who came highly recommended to us. Blair was extremely knowledgeable about the current market and helped us put a strong but fair offer on our dream home which was accepted right away. His past experience as a contractor was especially invaluable as he was able to give us a good idea of the potential downfalls of properties we were considering. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to buy a home in the Victoria area.
Richard & Erin

Blair and his team did a great job for our family. In 2019 they helped us buy a home, in Cordova Bay, a few blocks from our current house, which is almost renovated. Two weeks ago we sold our current home, and he helped us achieve everything we wanted and more. Blair advised use how to prepare our home for sale, introduced us to a great painter, and house stager. We are very pleased. Thanks so much!

Tom & Jennifer

Blair recently helped my husband and I buy our first home in the challenging market of Victoria. I have a very busy, demanding work schedule and a young toddler, and Blair was very accommodating of this —booking showings, contacting selling agents, and submitting offers at all hours/days of the week. He was always readily available to answer our questions by email or phone throughout the process. Because we are new to home ownership, we also appreciated Blair’s expertise regarding what to look for and expect in terms of maintenance/upgrading. After only a few weeks of active searching, we were able to find the perfect home for our young family in a desirable neighbourhood! We’re very happy with Blair and excited to move into our new home.

Blair and Katrina did an amazing job helping us sell our home. As first time sellers in a very busy market, we needed help and guidance throughout. They were both very helpful and responsive. Katrina sent a schedule of showings every morning, as well as updates throughout the day, and she was always available to answer questions by text. Blair priced and marketed our house so that we got a lot of interest as well as offers… I would recommend them to anyone who is looking to buy or sell.
Andrea & Jon

Working with Blair and his team on our recent search and purchase was an absolute pleasure. Blair was very professional, not pushy in the least, and ensured we were on top of each step. He also provided a great set of references for all our other property purchase needs. Highly recommended!
Greg C

Blair helped our family with an estate sale. Since we had to arrange things from out of town, we needed a lot of advice about the local market, service providers and getting final maintenance work done. Blair explained the whole process to us, answered our many questions and kept us up to date as the house went on the market. His team provided daily updates of showings. We were happy to get a quick sale and were very pleased with the service Blair provided.
Matthew E

Blair and his team are top notch! They helped us through purchasing our dream property and selling our current home. Blair is very well rounded. He is calm, friendly, knowledgeable, and will go to bat for you.
His assistant Katrina is amazing too! She’s very responsive, friendly, and efficient. We can’t thank them enough for all their hard work on our new purchase and sale of our house. Thanks guys!
Julie & John

My family has worked with Blair over a number of years to find and buy that perfect home (not a simple feat in Victoria). He has always been patient and professional in his dealings, complemented with wonderful support by his assistant Katrina. He is responsive and strikes that fine balance between providing real concrete information (certainly knows a lot about construction!) and not being in “sales mode”. I would certainly recommend Blair and his team to my friends and colleagues.
Rowland K

My husband and I have purchased two properties through Blair (and Katrina). On each occasion, we bought the properties sight-unseen so Blair checked them out on our behalf and provided very detailed and honest feedback. This enabled us to move forward with each sale with the comfort of knowing that there would be no surprises when we actually viewed the place(s) ourselves. And there wasn’t! Both purchase transactions were excellent in every way. Their response time to every question we had was amazing and they could not have been more thorough. We would have marked 10 stars if that had been an option. Our sincerest thanks to them both!

We were only in town for a few days but Blair set up an impressive lineup of condos to view.
Among those shown was the unit we ultimately purchased. His team completed the transaction smoothly and efficiently.
Thank for helping us find our new home.
Steve & Karen

Blair, Deanna, Katrina and the rest of the team are excellent! Can’t recommend them enough. They helped my wife and I find the right home for our family and helped guide us through our first property sale.
The whole process was stress-free! They are always professional and quick to respond to questions
Moses & Rosalyn

Blair and the team at Remax were very helpful and always responded quickly, answering all my questions and patiently taking me to all of the properties that fit my criteria. Blair took the time to understand what I was wanting in my new home, and found the perfect fit! Thank you so much!
Shelley L

I bought my home with Blair. He was absolutely amazing! Always quick to respond and was there to show me places within 24 hours. Always a smile on his face and looking out for my best interests. I would highly recommend him and his team. He went above and beyond.
Michelle F

Blair said his team have mow helped me through 6 different real estate transactions over the years, and I keep going back to him as he’s so knowledgeable and approachable. He’s quick to get back to me with any questions I might have. I always come out of the transaction feeling confident that I made the best deal possible; that he’s got my back. I highly recommend Blair and his team!!
Ann & Jim

The House Selling Group was the perfect choice when it came to helping our family sell and purchase our home.
We are so grateful to Blair, Katrina and Dustin for everything they have helped us with! From our first appointment together, we felt listened to and cared for when it came to our wants and needs in the selling and purchasing processes.
With unwavering professionalism and patience, the team made themselves available to us no matter the time of day or the request we had.
As this was our first sale, there was a lot of hand-holding as Blair and Katrina helped us navigate the many steps that needed to be followed. The team helped us through all those necessary steps with continued kindness, expertise and insight that we would not have been able to find elsewhere.
Communication and accessibility seemed effortless to Blair, Katrina and Dustin, and because of them, we sold our home in record-breaking time and purchased our dream home to raise our family in. Thank you Blair, Katrina and Dustin for all your efforts and for everything you helped us with on this journey. We couldn’t have done any of it without each of you!
