TESTIMONIALS

"Melvin was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond my expectations. I was so pleased with his efforts on marketing and staging my home beautifully. I believe the sold sign would have been up faster if we didn't hit the pandemic. Melvin didn't let us down he added virtual tour and our home was still having a lot of views online. I never felt pushed or rushed to make any decisions from him. His patience and diligence really impressed us and he always has his best interest at heart. I now highly recommend him to my friends and family for any of their real estate needs."

- Lillian Wu

"It was a pleasure having Melvin as our realtor. I think the most important quality of a realtor is one who listens, one who is responsive, and most importantly, one who is focused on the needs of the client. Melvin is just that type of realtor, earnest, diligent, and patient. He understands that finding the right home is huge commitment and doesn’t push his clients to make hasty decisions.

On a personal level, I was impressed how he didn’t just leave us after we moved in. He followed up to make sure we were happy. We would definitively use him again and we’ve already recommended him to a few of our friends."

-Thomas Chan

"It was a great pleasure to have Melvin as our real estate agent. From our initial conversation over phone in late 2018 until finding a perfect fit for our family Melvin was super patient and supportive. Dealing in real estate market is no fun specially when you are new to the place and have no knowledge of how things work. We moved from United States to Canada 3 months back but we were working with Melvin since Dec 2018. He has been a great help though out the process specially answering all of our questions and understanding deeply what we are looking for our family. We highly recommend Melvin for his professionalism, prompt response, knowledge of local real estate market and friendliness. Five cheers to you Melvin! We were honored to have you as our realtor."

I can't say enough about how amazing my experience was with Melvin and Milton. As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous, overwhelmed, and unsure about the whole process, but from the very first conversation, Milton made me feel at ease. They were incredibly patient with me, taking the time to explain each step and answer my endless questions—never once making me feel rushed or like I was asking too much. What truly stood out to me was how thoughtful and genuine they are. It was clear that they weren’t just trying to close a deal, but were truly invested in helping me find the perfect home. They listened carefully to my preferences and made sure to understand what I wanted, even when I wasn’t entirely sure myself. Their focus was always on me as a client, not just on making a sale. They guided me through the process with such care and respect, making sure I felt confident with every decision I made. Melvin and Milton have unique abilities to be both professional and personal, offering valuable advice while also respecting my space and wishes. I never felt pressured or rushed into anything; instead, it felt like we were working together toward finding a place I would truly love. Their dedication to my happiness was apparent in every interaction, and I am so grateful for the trust they built with me. If you're a first-time homebuyer or just looking for someone who truly cares about your needs, I highly recommend working with MC Real Estate Group. Their attention to detail, kindness, and patience made this experience incredibly positive, and I couldn’t be happier with the home we found. Thank you, Melvin and Milton, for being such wonderful guides through this exciting journey!

Helped Melanie Gold to buy a house in Vancouver in 2024.
I had the pleasure of working with Melvin Chan this summer to purchase a new home, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the start, I found Melvin exceptionally knowledgeable and easy to work with. He consistently stayed on top of every detail and provided clear communication. Moving from another city, we relied heavily on his recommendations such as the right communities for us. It was reassuring to know that he always offered the best guidance. Throughout our search, Melvin was incredibly attentive to our preferences and dislikes after each showing. Even when we initially overlooked the listing of our now-home, Melvin completely understood our needs and urged us to a showing, which turned out to be the perfect home. For this, I am extremely grateful as the house was even better than we had hoped for. We were further impressed by Melvin throughout the purchasing process. He was patient, thoroughly explained each process, and provided expert opinions. Melvin’s dedication ensured that we found our dream home within our price range. His commitment to us was truly exceptional, and we are deeply grateful for his expertise and support. I will absolutely be recommending Melvin to our friends and family!

Helped Jonathan Burrows to buy a house in Vancouver in 2024.
Melvin is an exemplary realtor. My partner and I were moving to Vancouver with limited knowledge of the area, and Melvin expertly guided us through every step of the process. He started by showing us different neighborhoods, offering honest, pragmatic, and insightful feedback on what to expect from each. He also provided realistic expectations for our budget in each area. He wasn't shy to the current market conditions, and helped coach us on what to expect in a buyer's market. As we visited open houses, Melvin actively listened to our priorities and helped us find homes that matched our needs. The house we ended up purchasing was initially overlooked by me, and we only went to a viewing due to Melvins steering us there. Melvin truly excelled during the closing process. Since we were new to the area, we didn’t have any contacts for financing, appraisers, inspectors, notaries, etc. Melvin gave us excellent recommendations for all of these, making the entire closing process smooth and stress-free.

I bought with Melvin this August and I have to say it was the best, most professional purchase experience of my life. He is truly so knowledgeable, and not only that, he makes the process so easy for the buyer. He listened adamantly to my wants and needs, and I never once felt pushed to go in a certain direction as he would provide his professional insight, and then let me lead the rest of the way. I highly recommend buying with Melvin in the Vancouver Real Estate market. Whether looking for an investment property, a value-property, or your forever home - you cannot go wrong working with Melvin.

We have worked with a handful of real estate professionals over the years, and interviewed countless more. I am super picky. Melvin has shown himself to be one of the best realtors we've worked with. Don't let his youthfulness deter you. He's a savvy and skilled negotiator with lots of experience. We were able to rest easy knowing that Melvin ​was in our corner. No matter how busy he was, Melvin treated us as if we ​were his only clients, and this speaks volumes. He was readily available, patiently answered all our questions, and updated us at every step. All of the above makes for a smooth transaction and happy clients.

I am so glad I chose to work with the best realtor, Melvin Chan. Before working with Melvin, I was super stress having to move from one place to another and feeling lost that I couldn’t find the “right” realtor for me. Then, I saw Melvin on social media and immediately I knew he was the one. I was drawn by his sincere, honest and trust-worthy personality. Melvin was extremely professional, polite, intelligent and knowledgeable. Melvin and his team did a fantastic job with marketing; they were able to showcase my place in a warm and inviting way. He was always quick to communicate with me. I had the best experience working with Melvin and I will continue to work him in the future.
