We highly recommend Jay Bell and the Williamson Team! Our family has had the pleasure of working with the Williamson team previously, but working with Jay was new for this sale and purchase. From our first meeting, it was clear that Jay was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping us find the perfect home. Jay took the time to understand our needs and preferences, guided us through every step of the process, and was always available to answer questions—even outside regular hours. The Williamsons have raised their family in North Vancouver and have a deep understanding of the North Van market. They have an attention to detail that helped us feel confident in every decision. What really stood out was Jay’s honesty and patience—never any pressure, just great advice and support. Thanks to Jay, we found a home we love, and the entire experience was smooth and stress-free. If you're buying or selling in North Van, do yourself a favor and work with a team who truly cares. We are so grateful to Jay and the Williamson Team for their expertise and dedication. Definitely a 5-star experience from start to finish!

We have had the privilege of knowing Jim and Dawn Williamson not through their professional capacity, but because we were all fortunate enough to have grown beautiful roots in the community of Lynn Valley together. We have raised our kids here and enjoyed many years of family connections with each other, and we have had the privilege of seeing the Williamson team develop into a vibrant and successful family business. When we made the incredibly bittersweet decision to downsize and leave the Lynn Valley community, the Williamson team went above and beyond to make our transition as comfortable and seamless as possible, fully committing to using their wealth of knowledge of North Vancouver to find us a space that we will surely enjoy for the years to come. I can think of no better team well suited to turning the dreams of families- in all stages of life- into a beautiful and attainable reality. We are so grateful for the effort and consideration the Williamson team has showed us. They are truly the personification of the North Shore values we have so loved over our years here. Eternally grateful, The Barracloughs

Thanks to Dawn and Jim's advice and help, we received and accepted a good offer for our house in one day. Dawn made the sale process very easy. We will definitely return to the Williamson Team if we move back to the region.

Williamson Team provided an exceptional level of service to guide the purchase of our first home. Jay was professional, supportive, and patient as we toured dozens of houses and made several changes to our original plan. He was also knowledgeable about the market, gathered information quickly, and had established great relationships with other realtors. I could not recommend Jay or Williamson more.

Jay Bell is an exceptional real estate agent, who is always willing to go over and above for his clients! He helped us purchase an amazing property when we didn’t think it would work out (our offer wasn't accepted at first) and then ensured that everything stayed on track with a very tight timeline with selling our old place. Jay was in constant communication, guiding us through various issues and explaining details when need. What we found valuable working with Jay that always had our interest, very caring, humble, and his expertise and knowledge of the North Van market is a HUGE bonus. Would definitely recommend Jay to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.

The service we received from Jay Bell and the Williamson Team was exceptional! When we set out on our home search, it seemed that it would be impossible within our budget to find what we were looking for. From beginning to end, Jay was instrumental in the process to find and purchase that home. In the moments when we needed to move quickly, Jay was right there to act our behalf. Every obstacle we faced, Jay was able to handle with skill, professionalism, and competence. The home we now proudly own exceeds even our original expectations and we are very grateful for Jay’s excellent work in helping us find and acquire it!

A Fantastic First Home Buying Experience with The Williamson Team! We recently purchased our first home in Woodcroft with the incredible assistance of Brooke Williamson and her team, "The Williamson Team." Brooke's professionalism and deep knowledge of the Woodcroft area and real estate market made the entire process seamless. Communication with The Williamson Team was exceptional, with prompt responses to our questions and updates on new listings. Brooke's negotiation skills were top-notch, securing the best deal for us and instilling confidence in every step. The overall experience exceeded our expectations, making the typically daunting process of buying a first home enjoyable and stress-free. We wholeheartedly recommend Brooke Williamson and The Williamson Team for their expertise and genuine care in turning our dream of homeownership into a reality. Chris & Cheyanne

After thirty two years in my home it was time to sell . So I looked no further than Jay Bell and the Williamson team who have been very successful selling homes in my Lynn Valley community for several years. From the moment Jay arrived at my door for the first time, I knew I was in the best hands possible. His professionalism and work ethic put my mind at ease immediately. Jay constantly kept me in the loop daily as to what was happening with the whole selling process, both him and his team were really there for me and truly delivered the exact results I was hoping for. I honestly can't say enough positive things about Jay and the Williamson Team, they were rock stars. I can clearly see why the team is so popular and successful in the community now that I have worked with them. I have and will continue to recommend Jay Bell and the Williamson team to anyone who is looking for the same great experience that i just had. Thank you so much Jay and the rest of the team for selling my home.

We bought our first house in January 2023 (we are a family of 4 with 2 little kids). It was our first experience buying a property, but Jay (from Williamson team) was fantastic. We viewed several properties with him, until we found a house, which suited our needs. Jay walked us along the way with all the paperwork and we get a pretty good deal. So far, we are very happy that Jay was our realtor, definitely will recommend Jay and the team.

Jim and Dawn (and now Bre, Brooke, and Jay) have helped us buy and sell several properties over the last 20 years. Each experience has been excellent. Their knowledge of the neighborhood and their support of clients past and present are unmatched. If you are looking for a home on Vancouver’s North Shore, you won’t find a better team of realtors.

Bre was my realtor who helped me get into the housing market and purchase my very first apartment in North Vancouver, BC. She was very thorough, professional and lovely to deal with. She has always been very conscious of the wants and needs I was looking for when it came to finding the right home for me, and she helped me think outside of the box as well when searching for the right fit. She also very candid when it came to certain potential purchases that might not be the best investment and she steered me in the right direction. I highly recommend Bre and the Williamson team for your realty search and needs! They are wonderful people to work with, who are full of experience and great advice!

Their honest opinions and attention to detail really helped us to find our new home. Overall, their communication and willingness to help with every request that we threw at them were the keys to our successful transactions.

We had the pleasure of having Jim and Dawn sell two of our townhouses, to say they’re exceptional realtors would be an understatement! We were relatively young and doing this for our first time and they walked us through everything, my husband and I felt so supported nothing seemed overwhelming. Both our properties sold in a matter of days and with zero complications, not because they’re weren’t any complications but because Jim and Dawn and their team looked after everything for us ! We no longer reside on the north shore but if we ever move back I would never use anyone else. They also give back to their community on so many levels, not only amazing realtors but just really awesome humans !!!! 10/10 recommend, look no further!

My wife and I are extremely impressed with Dawn and her team for helping us buy a condo and sell our house. Dawn listened and understood what our needs were and went out and found us exactly what we were looking for. It was a truly amazing job by her and her team in finding us our new home.
