Ron Parpara, PREC*

We've used Ron for two sales and one purchase so far and would use him again in an instant. He's very thorough, kept us informed every step of the way, and far exceeded our expectations. Ron's very down to earth and friendly, and clearly had our best interests at heart. We couldn't be happier with the results. Highly recommended.

Ron made a big impact on our family as our agent.From the get go he quickly finds out what is important and then walks you through the entire process and minimizes the burden and stress of selling your home. He's available whenever you need him and no showing gets missed.In a business where the majority of agents do what is most lucrative, when you find someone that works in your best interest stick with them. We’ve worked with other agents in the past and know from experience.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ron when I only had four days to find a house in Vancouver. I don’t live in Vancouver and I travel a great deal of the time so time is of the essence. Ron lined up several homes that met my criterion, set up appointments that fit in with my tight schedule, did all the legwork and due diligence necessary to make sure the home was appropriate, and finished the deal! In all my years of working with real estate agents I can honestly say that Ron is head and shoulders above the rest and I can highly recommend him.

Working with Ron has been nothing but a great experience. As a Realtor working in Seattle I would refer Ron to anyone I know looking to buy or sell in Vancouver. Ron and I are in a group of the best agents in North America and we work together to help our clients. Ron is one of the most respected and hardest working agents in Canada and only takes on a select number of clients at any given time, otherwise he will refer them to other reputable agents that he's worked with personally, creating a great experience for his clients. Ron's background in rental properties gives him an edge up knowing the preferred investment options for clients and attracting and keeping high quality tenants, and knowing the buildings, quality and what goes on in these buildings day to day, which most agents wouldn't know. I highly recommend Ron to anyone looking to buy or sell in Vancouver.

Ron was an absolute gem of a realtor. We couldn't have found anyone better. He was personable, patient, knowledgeable, and honest - all you could ask for in a realtor. From the get go, he never was pushy. He gave us all the information we needed to make an informed decision. He provided us a lot of helpful tips as first time home buyers. We were looking to buy in the East Vancouver area, and he was very familiar with the area. He was great at following up with us through the entire process, and even afterwards! We never had to chase time down. He also recommended lots of other great professionals for other parts of the buying process (like home inspectors, reno guys, etc.). We ultimately bought in the River District, after Ron took all our preferences into consideration and gave us some suggestions of places to look. He was very detailed-oriented through the entire process, and pointed out important things for us to consider. He even gave us a list of pros and cons of the property we were looking at! Even though we were willing to go higher, he negotiated the price further down for us. There were so many little things he did that went above and beyond what typical realtors did. For example, when we moved in, the previous occupants left a large shelf and the place wasn't completely cleaned. He arranged for all those things to be taken care of, and he covered the costs. Even after we moved in, Ron has kept in touch and checking in to see how we are settling in. I cannot recommend him enough. I definitely will be suggesting Ron to people we know!

Worked together on a deal. Straight forward, honest and friendly. Fantastic to work with.

Ron is absolutely amazing. We had been trying to find a realtor for a few weeks without success. Somehow we came across Ron's website and before we even mentioned that we wanted him to be our realtor he gave us such amazing advice. At the time we were out of province and Ron did everything to make this a seamless process. When we finally decided to buy a home we made an offer before even seeing it. That's how much we trust Ron. He would FaceTime us and take us through a home, do a mini- interview with the owner. We would send him a list of places we liked and he would give us his unbiased opinion. When he didn't know, he would confer with a colleague just to make sure we were getting accurate info. If you're considering any kind of home purchase, look no further... Ron is the realtor you need.

Ron did an amazing job helping my wife and I purchase an apartment. We were first time buyers and Ron kept us informed throughout the whole process, providing clear instructions on what we needed to do. He also went above and beyond in providing us with requested information, addressing any concerns we had, and negotiating price with the seller. In the end we acquired the apartment we loved, in the neighborhood we wanted for a respectable amount under asking price (Ron worked extra hard to get the price even lower, even though we were comfortable making an offer. He unded up saving us even more money). After the deal, Ron helped us with cleaning and finding contractors for touch ups. I've already recommended Ron to a friend and they're also very happy with his work. A++ agent!

Ron did a great job. He is a truly honest realtor who works hard to make sure his buyers get the place that is right for them. Ron doesn't push places on buyers that may not be the perfect place, even if that means a lot more work on his part to keep doing showings and finding the right place. I would definitely recommend Ron to friends and family as he cares about his clients, and not just about making a quick buck.

"I am very pleased with service provided by Mr. X, throughout the whole contact we kept he displayed an excellent attitude, honesty and wide experience, so that as we landed on Sunday all pending arrangements went effortlessly and by tuesday we were receiving our home."

Ron is a true professional in all areas of Real Estate. His marketing and advertising strategies he uses to benefit his clients are some of the best i've ever seen in the business. Very unique and highly effective. It's been an absolute pleasure working with Ron over the last while and I look forward to working with him for years and years to come. Call Ron to be your Realtor, you'll be glad you did.

Last year Ron Parpara was our realtor from both ends the selling of our condo in Olympic Village and the buying of our townhouse in Coquitlam. It was my first time going through the selling AND buying experience and never really know what to expect but of course our goal was to sell a generous amount over asking and to buy for a reasonable price according to the current market. I am not sure exactly how many years experience Ron has, but I know it's a significant amount because of his outstanding work ethic. Ron guided us with so much patience through the process, taking every pre-caution and all the necessary steps to ensure our condo sold way above asking - with a total of 15 written offers!!! And also at times he may have discouraged us from making offers on a number of townhouses because he knew from his experience and intuition in the industry that we would soon enough find a home that better fits all the descriptions of our dream home 😍 It was surprisingly a pretty quick process for us, 4 weeks or so from completing the purchase to completing the sale. We are forever grateful to have the connection with Ron Parpara-Realtor and the privilege to have him assist us in the very best way possible during this live changing time of lives. Thank-You Ron Parpara-Realtor!!!

I hired Ron almost 2 decades ago when I was a Regional Manager for an International Insurance Company. The qualities that Ron brought to the interview carried all the way through to his Clients. His level of commitment to meeting his Clients needs and work ethic was unprecedented. I would highly recommend Ron if you are seeking a capable, competent, knowledgeable and compassionate person for your Real Estate needs! Fast forward to today, he’s my ‘GO TO’ Realtor for any Vancouver Clients as I’m also a Realtor in London Ontario. He has a wealth of knowledge about the changing market and is very well connected. He knows more about Vancouver neighborhoods and buildings than anyone I know.
