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."

- Sandeep Kaur

I trust his opinions and knowledge and fully recommend!"

Thank you, Melvin!"

It has been amazing to work with Melvin. He is very knowledgable and does a very good research of the neighbourhood. We had a lot of questions during the entire home search process and I'm glad we had him. He is a true professional, very easy to talk with and helped us patiently throughout the process. He worked really hard to make sure we got the deal over the line. I highly recommend Melvin!

Melvin helped me purchase my first home, and I'm very grateful to have found him on REW. He took the time to explore our initial needs, and was very patient and helpful in explaining the beginnings and ends of the home buying process with my fiancee and I. We had many many questions along the way, and he would answer them every time. He came to every open house with us, even after we moved our options from the initial Richmond/Delta area to Burnaby/Coquitlam/New West, and I am very thankful for that, as he does notice things that we didn't quite yet have a trained eye for. He provided all the details I needed to comfortably lock in an offer, and know clearmindedly what my next steps of the purchase were (he also provided notary references, home inspection references, etc.). So very helpful, and honestly, just a genuinely nice person. Would definetely recommend him as a realtor for any first-time home buyer!

Melvin helped my fiancé purchase his first home and helped make the experience a forever core memory in our lives. He was available 7am to 3pm to 12am to answer all of our questions (sorry for that!). He would go out of his way to join us in ALL our open houses, hit us with additional "Fun Facts " about previous showings, and took the time to learn the details of our lives, making sure to book times that he knew would give us time to eat a late lunch. Day in and day out he helped us work together and added additional info and research to my partner and my own due diligence. He is also fluent in Cantonese and allowed us to bring our mom to showings too. Prior to purchasing, we looked in every location possible! Luckily, Melvin was knowledgeable in all the districts we viewed Delta, Coquitlam, New West, Burnaby and Vancouver, I'm sure his range is even greater. First time home buyers may not know exactly what they want, but you can trust in Melvin to snag you the perfect home. We would definitely use him again in the future! Ps. You know he's good when strangers start asking him about particular showings and for his contact info while he's visiting an open house with us.

As a first time home buyer, I obviously didn't know where to start when it came to even browsing potential homes. Melvin patiently fielded all my questions and gave me a nice summarized introduction into what kind of properties I should be considering, what metrics to be evaluating, and what the purchase process would be like. After almost a year of watching the market, I finally closed on a presale this year and Melvin was very helpful in ironing out details and facilitating the process conveniently. He seemed to always keep my interests at heart, which gave me peace of mind. I recommend him to other first time home buyers who are in a similar situation as I was. Many thanks, Melvin.

Melvin showed great persistence and hard work finding me my first home. Given how hot the market is I thought it would be impossible to purchase my first home; however, Melvin made the process very easy. Melvin was also very knowledgeable with his statistics, which made buying the right home that much easier. Melvin has been amazing to work with over the last 6 months and showed a tremendous level of professionalism while finding me my first home!
