Happy Clients

Chris Perkins enjoyed every part of the process when selling 1575 Henry Street in the South End of Halifax.  Getting to know the owners was a real pleasure, as was learning about all of the work they put into the home over the years.  It was the perfect blend of old-world character combined with the modern conveniences we demand today. 

Chris appreciated all the trust his clients placed in him to properly showcase the property.  When marketing a home, there is way more to it than stating the number of rooms or its square footage. There's more to it than simply listing upgrades.  Homes come with a story that needs to be told.

It’s no secret that in the past several years, people have been flocking to Nova Scotia from across Canada.  Although that has slowed down in recent months, it’s still nice to tell a story about a couple who’ve moved home to Nova Scotia!

Here was a scenario where all of a sudden, my clients were provided with a job offer to move home.  The clock was quickly ticking and we were tasked with finding a home within the period of a dedicated house hunting trip.  Katy came alone, while Junior remained at home - the trust!  

We had a wide search radius from Clayton Park to Sackville to Colby Village. Wanting to stay within a certain budget, we spread our search out to find some areas that were suitable, with an eye for a home that didn’t need a…

Congratulations and welcome home, Vanessa and Kevin!

Vanessa and Kevin placed a lot of trust in Chris during their home search, which is not something he takes lightly.  After an initial Zoom meeting, he learned they were looking to relocate back to Nova Scotia.  To add to the pressure, they wanted to secure a house before they got here to see it in person!

The Covid years made sight-unseen offers a more common occurrence.  Video, 3D tours and FaceTime Virtual walk-throughs allow us to provide more information than ever before, but there’s nothing that replaces the feeling of walking around your potential new home in person.  Luckily for Chris, he and his clients were able to lean on some local family members for them to be the ears and eyes on…
