Testimonials

The following testimonials were written by just some of my happy sellers and buyers. They have all been kind enough to give me permission to show you their correspondence. Their letters and words are very gratifying. It seems that my down-to-earth and honest approach has earned me many friends.

  Sold and Bought in One Week

"We recently worked with David when we decided to upsize our home, and with his easy to use online resources, commitment to clients and invaluable advice, we found our new home and sold our old one in the span of a week!

David exceeded our expectations in every way, from his professional marketing materials to his friendly demeanor with agents and prospective buyers. His extensive experience gave us the confidence we needed during negotiations. We would not hesitate to recommend David and we hope we will get the opportunity to work with him again in the future."

  Highly Recommend David

"I highly recommend David. Everything from the professionally produced brochure to his direct mail campaign are a cut above the rest. He was relentless when negotiating and he was always looking out for our best interests. He was able to generate multiple offers and sell our home in under a month in a softer market. He made the process easy and stress free. I would not hesitate to use David's real estate services again in the future."

  I could not have achieved this success without you
"This email comes to you with great appreciation for all the efforts from you for making the sale of my home a big success.  Your hard work and honest advice helped me to sell my home quickly and at a substantially higher than asking price.  First and foremost, having a really good realtor like you who offers expert and honest advice is paramount.  As a seller, I understand you are not a magician.  However, I do need to act on your recommendations (e.g. staging the property, pricing it correctly, doing the necessary renovations, painting the rooms with neutral colour,  etc.).   You held an incredible open house.  By guiding the  perspective buyers/agents I was able to sell for the best possible price.  Not to mention the food and professional brochures.  I could not have achieved this success without you.  Thanks again.  This has been a much less stressful event than I thought it would be."

  I Appreciate Your Not Pressuring Me
"By the way, thank you for all of your help.  I know that you have worked really hard on this.  I appreciate your not pressuring me when I told you my budget.  I wouldn't have started this house process if you had not called me.  I would have continued to go to many open houses month after month."

  Professional and Knowledgeable
"David Setton is a professional and knowledgeable realtor whose solid research and strong negotiation skills resulted in the purchase of our home. We found David’s straightforward disposition and his residential development and building construction experience invaluable. When we visited open houses, he provided both positive and negative inputs based on objective analysis so that we can make an informed decision. When we were ready to make an offer, he conducted research and provided detailed data of comparables. The level of service he provided was first class, and continued even after closing. We can safely say that it is rare to find people like David who sincerely is always looking out for your best interest. We do not hesitate in recommending his services and we will definitely contact David again in the future."

  Advantage Over Other Realtors
"My husband and I hired David Setton to sell our condo in Kitsilano. He gave us great advice on how to prepare the apartment, had professional photos taken, and was completely dedicated to getting us the best deal. David’s level of commitment and responsiveness was fantastic. He went out of his way to give us great service and with his efforts our condo sold in a very short time and at a good price given the depressed market at the time. He then undertook the task of finding us a new house on the North Shore. His property development experience gave us an edge in looking at houses with determining functionality of layouts and quality of construction. He definitely provides an advantage over other realtors. David’s straightforwardness was refreshing and we felt assured that he was looking after our best interests. The whole selling and buying experience was less stressful and more successful because David was working with us, and for us.”

  David is the man!
“We would definitely recommend David to anyone who is looking for a keen, enthusiastic realtor. His experience in real estate development makes his knowledge of building construction and unit layout invaluable. We gave him our criteria and he was very helpful in finding proprieties that suited our needs, and was available when ever it was convenient for us to see a property. During the showing he helped us narrow down what works and what doesn’t based on our needs. It was great to have him every step of the way to give honest and un-biased opinions on the properties we viewed. Within one month of working with David, we bought our condo. David was great with the negotiation processes, doing lots of research on comparable sales so we knew the best price to offer. His method of offer presentation is the best – there were no anxious days of waiting for a response. If you want to buy or sell a home with a realtor who will treat you as his top priority – David is the man!”

  Extremely Impressed With the Service
"David made everything so easy for us and went over and above our expectations.  As first time home buyers, my wife and I had no idea where to begin. We had a lot of questions and concerns about getting into the market at a young age, but David made everything so easy for us and went over and above our expectations. From pick up and drop off, area specific analysis of each place, we were given all the information that we needed to make an informed decision about buying our home. David made our experience pleasant and practically stress-free. We both were extremely impressed with the service and advice we were given and would strongly recommend David Setton to anyone thinking of buying or selling a house.

  He Did Exactly What He Promised!
"I first met David at an open house he was hosting in our building and was impressed with his professionalism, pleasant attitude and sense of humour. He didn’t seem like the typical real estate agent – he actually knew what he was talking about, was respectful and direct. I was thinking of selling our apartment and decided to interview him after finding out that he had quickly sold a similar suite in our building for a good price. We have a baby so it was important to us to sell the apartment quickly because it is so difficult to stage an apartment with baby clutter everywhere. David implemented his market strategy quickly and within one week of signing with him we had professional photos taken, listed our place and sold it during the first open house weekend for asking price! He did exactly what he promised. I would recommend David to anyone selling or buying a home in Vancouver.

  I strongly recommend using David’s services!
"I would like to introduce you to my friend David Setton. I met David while I was training for the Vancouver marathon in 2005 as we were both part of the Running Room clinic on Alma Street. David is an amazing athlete and has done multiple Ironmans, marathons and other sporting events. David has been in residential development for several years with United Properties and last year he decided to get closer to clients and become a real estate agent. From his development background he knows what should be considered a good property and can also provide ideas for improvements. He is not only a great advisor but his passion, determination and high energy really make him stand out. If you or someone you know would like to buy or sell a property I strongly recommend using David’s services.

  The Property that Fit Our Needs.
"We met David at Tapestry Park in Fairview. We were both pushing our toddlers on the swings and he introduced himself. When we mentioned that we were thinking of purchasing our first home in Vancouver, we exchanged business cards. The next day we were impressed to see that he had followed up with us by sending five or six listing in the condominium building fronting the park. David is not only a knowledgeable real estate agent, he is also a genuine individual. He shared his opinions on the properties that we viewed together and provided us with both the positive and negative attributes for each home. His development background was invaluable, and by showing us a variety of homes, we were quickly able to determine the property that fit our needs."
