I could write a book about how fabulous Jim has been as my realtor. From November 2023 until I finally moved into my new (older) townhome in Abbotsford mid-2025, Jim has endured every challenge that you could imagine in both purchasing and selling my homes. Yet through all our adventures, Jim was so supportive, professional, empathetic, caring and on the ball. Nothing was too much trouble, day or night. I dragged him from one end of Abbotsford to the other looking for the right home and neighbourhood. Yet he never complained and took the time to weigh each one, along with my needs, always pointing out both the pros and cons. We listed my home just as the market crashed in 2024 and some offers fell through. Jim held open houses, promoted through social media and did everything to help sell the home. We re-listed in 2025, once again in difficult real estate market times. We faced many challenges with the ultimate sale, yet Jim was constantly there, advising how to navigate the challenges and with good sound, professional advice. He always went over and above what anyone would expect from a realtor to help to move the sale along. Ultimately, my new (old) home was the only one available when my sale concluded. Although I was hesitant to buy this home, Jim pointed out all the great aspects of the neighbourhood and the price was more than right. We therefore had the ability to renovate my new home. I love it and love the complex where I live. The people are absolutely amazing and I am so close to everything in a delightfully friendly and quiet complex and area, and near a large park for walking. It was indeed the right move. I cannot thank Jim enough for hanging in there and putting up with all the complex challenges we faced, both in the sale and purchase. If you want the best person to sell your home or to find your dream home, and someone who will care about you and go above and beyond expectations, then Jim is your man.

Christine Corbett-Gallos worked with Jim Verwoerd in 2025.
Jim went above and beyond to help us list and sell our home in Abbotsford! He was kind, professional, and personable in all of our interactions. I felt like he really listened to what my husband and I wanted and worked with us in all aspects of the sale. He also helped us to list and sell furniture and other items that we didn’t want to keep for the move. A lot of our interactions had to happen from out of town as we had already moved out of the country at the time of selling and Jim helped to make everything work smoothly even from a distance. I highly recommend Jim as a realtor!

We called Jim after he knocked on our door to introduce himself as an agent. We were considering selling our home and a few months later decided to sell.

Once we started working with Jim his strengths were apparent. He is an excellent communicator and kept us informed and up to date in every aspect.

Helped Sarah to buy a house in Chilliwack in 2022.
Jim was referred to me by family members and we were not disappointed! He helped us find a family home in Chilliwack and we were so glad to have him as a partner. Jim really goes above and beyond. Before our first home tour he took the time to visit our preferred neighborhood and houses we had shown interest in, and made videos of the area and sent us his thoughts. He patiently took us on our house tours and was very honest with his feedback and patient with our questions. When we found the house we liked, he was extremely communicative through the offer process and did wonderful due diligence for us. He would respond to our questions, even if we texted him at odd hours. He was always pleasant, informative, and funny! He treated us like long-time friends and it built a lot of trust between us. In the end, we got the house we wanted, in the neighborhood we wanted and at a price better than we expected. He was able to connect us to insurance providers and contractors, as needed. We strongly recommend Jim, without hesitation.
