Ron Parpara, PREC*

I worked with Ron to get my first condo in Vancouver. He is extremely professional and went out of his way to help make the process as stress-free as possible given the hot market. Vancouver is a very competitive market and condos are selling tens of thousands over asking and Ron help me secure a great place below asking. He has been extremely helpful and knowledgeable in the process after completion, helping me navigate the new responsibilities as a first time homeowner. There seems to be quite a few shady realtors that we came across in the home buying process and Ron has the proper judgement and intellect to make sure you are fully protected.

Ron is a super agent and the most honest and hard working professional I have met not only in real estate, but any other industry or profession!! He helps me with everything with my property and knows the buildings in Yaletown. He specializes in dealing with investment properties. Thank you Ron for being an exceptional Vancouver realtor and helping me with my unit at Freesia. Your experience and skill do not go unnoticed and there’s a reason you are ranked as the Top 3 Agents in Vancouver! I can’t thank you enough. I’m glad I got to meet you.

Ron helped us sell our condo and purchase a new Townhouse for our family. He is an outstanding and reliable professional as he goes above and beyond to ensure all your house-sale-related issues are met. For example, he would help and follow up on recommendations for movers, cleaners, stagers, etc. Ron was always available for any inquires and in case he was unavailable, made sure that someone else could look after us! He made all the right marketing recommendations end ensured having superior photos and floor plan to ensure it attracts the greatest number of buyers as well as staging the home enhancing all our properties features and bring in the wow factor and made it easy for us to tuck away the light furnishings at the end of the day as we still lived in the unit. Also, he was always available and made sure to work closely with the other professional we were working with such as our own mortgage broker and lawyer. The most remarkable part of Ron’s job was getting an outstanding selling price for our property, there were 2 very comparable listings which were both similar size in our building that came out a few weeks after ours and they both sold for less than ours.

Ron Parpara helped me and my family in the process of choosing the right home for us. He really supported us not only by making sure that we made the best decision in our home purchase but also to help us sell our current condo so we can make an upgrade to meet our family needs and dreams. We immediately felt a connection with Ron and it was a great asset to have his professional and friendly help in any stage of our decision. Ron Parpara made the process of buying and selling our home a very special one and we look forward to keeping him as our realtor of choice for many years to come.

Ron, Thank you so much for helping us purchase our first house!! From the get go, you helped us focus in on what we wanted (and could afford) and adjusted the search along the way accordingly. When we found properties that we liked, the professional way in which you represented us and explained pros and cons for each property, without ever being pushy, was really appreciated. When it came time to make an offer, you were extremely thorough in looking at the details we never would have even thought to investigate -I think your diligence saved us from what could have been a few disasters! We also appreciated your patience in explaining all the legal aspects of buying a property and walking us through the process step by step. You also walked us through all the additional expenses that came along with buying a house, so there were no surprises at the end. Thank you for your dedication and hard work from the moment we hired you to the day you brought us the keys. - we couldn't be any happier with the excellent job you did! Thank you!

I first met Ron when he was representing a client from Toronto who was interested in renting our apartment. I felt he was very detail oriented and was wholly working in the interests of his client. Even though this was a small job for him, I got the feeling that he was giving his 100% and not slacking just because it might've not paid as much. That was 100% the reason that when we needed someone to sell our Yaletown apartment at Richards Living, I called up Ron and asked if he would be interested. We wanted someone who would treat every job equally and give it 100% they had - big or small. Throughout the entire process he was in communication with us, gave us regular updates, and handled everything (getting photos, doing showings, handling repairs, etc). When issues came up, he quickly dealt with it. I would say, working with Ron really exemplifies the saying "when you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all". There was little we had to do from our end, because Ron was able to manage everything seamlessly when issues arose (and they did arise) and when things needed to be taken care of. There is nothing else I could mention about Ron that the other 50 reviews haven't. I wholly recommend Ron for his professionalism, ease of communication, skill in negotiating with other parties, and his eagerness to handle everything and adapt to any unexpected issues that arose. I would say he is definitely one realtor who earned his paycheck and provided significant value to us as his clients.

I've worked with Ron in both his capacity as a real estate agent looking to get into property ownership and then later as a tenant when i decided to take a different route. In all our dealings Ron has demonstrated a high level of professionalism. He is attentive and responsible and shows genuine caring and investment into the happiness and wellbeing of his clients.

Ron is a refreshingly honest and hardworking rare find in a market of thousands. After hours and hours of researching the plethora of real estate agents in Vancouver I was lucky enough to happen upon this Ace! Upon my first meeting with Ron his open and honest nature is immediately apparent and it put me at ease instantly! I could sense his honest desire to really listen to my specific needs and his ongoing dedication continued far beyond even what I expected. An absolute professional, he is skilled at negotiations, knowing exactly when a gentle convincing nudge is necessary and yet a perfect shark when he needed to be. He has such a knack for systematically breaking down each and every step along the way leaving you always feeling informed and more importantly, confident that he's working hard for what you need. Ron is the real deal. His communication was constant, clear, and informative. He calmly and expertly answered all of my questions about the process which left me feeling assured and informed. Without any hesitation I encourage you to reach out to Ron whether you are buying or selling. Save yourself from all of the stress and disappointment of maneuvering through this tough market with an agent that doesn't have your best interest at heart and just call Ron!

It was a pleasure to work with Ron for a few years. He was the owner's agent for the place we rented. I always found him very helpful, polite, friendly, personable, and more than anything honest. It was easy to communicate with him and benefit from his good advice. Even when the owner wanted to sell, Ron was still quite respectful and supportive trying to help us the whole way through. He is definitely a good realtor to work with!

Ron is by far the best agent I have ever worked with! His attention to details and big care for the whole experience made me feel that Ron is definitely a true professional since the first minute we met! He found an amazing, sunny and spacious appartment for our family in the heart of mount pleasant with a good price which is very valuable thing these days! He has been extremely helpful in the moments we had any questions or a need for anything and he is always very quick in replying and coming up with solutions! Highly recommended, big professional!

If there is anyone you want on your team, it’s Ron Parpara! He not only brings a wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to real estate but his strategic marketing ensures that his clients gets the best possible price in a highly competitive market. Congratulations on setting record price for your sellers!

Great realtor! Very thorough and knowledgeable ! Would highly recommend!

Ron is a real pleasure to work with. As a mortgage broker, the most important aspect of a relationship with a realtor is good, open communication. After working together with several mutual clients, this is something that has always impressed me about Ron. He is quick to respond and is always willing to talk through potential hurdles, making finding solutions fast and efficient. Dedicated to his clients, a creative problem solver, and a true professional, Ron is a top shelf realtor... and a great guy too!

Ron was great to work with. He was the buyer's agent for one of my listings in the West End, which required more work than usual as the building had upcoming work. He managed this difficult purchase gracefully and helped his buyer navigate and understand the engineer's reports and associated documents, which required a significant amount of time and effort. Ron is a professional through and through -- knowledgeable, patient, and courteous. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with him again in the future.

I met Ron and instantly found him to be personable and professional. He helped me find my ideal residence, presenting me with several options and always pointing out pros and cons of each property in a very honest fashion. I would definitely go to Ron again to have him assist in this crazy real estate environment. Irwin Bliss

I was introduced to Ron as the realtor of a client I was helping with a mortgage. Ron was thoughtful and courteous throughout, taking care that the client was protected from risks in a fast moving market. I would not hesitate to recommend Ron for real estate needs

Ron helped me purchase my first place in Vancouver, which was during the housing market craze. He was excellent to work with; professional, diligent, and went out of his way several times to accommodate my requests, or to ensure due diligence on his part. One example would be hiring a surveyor at his expense to check the apartment area. Ron was definitely a step above any realtors I have worked with in the past. He was not pushy, and gave honest advice. It was also a plus that he knew some good people for other home buying matters. I was very impressed with the home inspector he recommended. Overall, I had a great home-buying experience, down to the housewarming gift, and would recommend Ron!

Ron has great knowledge of yaletown and has helped greatly. I had an excellent experience when dealing with him in my building at Pinnacle.

Ron was very helpful throughout our purchasing process. Different from other realtors we had been with before, he was very proactive in following up, scheduled many showings matching our criterias, and giving us his professional insights in each of the units we had seen (e.x. What this building is known for, what to check etc.) I would recommend him to any of my family and friends.

We have worked with Ron for just over a year now on some investment properties. He is very professional, responsive and flexible, willing to go above and beyond to make sure to answer all our questions and to guide us appropriately.

I've worked with Ron for several years now and am impressed with his level of service and dedication to his clients. Ron's a realtor who cares and knows the business - buyers and sellers can't go wrong with a realtor as professional as Ron!

I’ve enjoyed an excellent rapport and can recommend Ron as a competent and efficient Agent.

Anytime I have questions about real estate Ron is always genuinely happy to help. You can tell that it comes natural to him and he really knows his stuff. When it came time for us to purchase, I called Ron to discuss the process in great detail. He was happy to help and caution me about any potential red flags. Ron never once mentioned about compensation and we ended up purchasing this property directly from the owner (it was the property we were currently renting) bc we live in Penticton. Without a doubt, I would recommend Ron for all your real estate needs. If I ever move back to Vancouver, he will be my realtor of choice without any hesitation.

I was really lucky to meet Ron and Sutton Group Del Mar when I moved to Vancouver and needed to find a new home for me and my family. Not only Ron has high-end properties in his portfolio, he also works hard to answer to all our needs and make sure we are hassle-free. He was friendly, responsive and thoughtful throughout the whole time. He is a good and honest professional, that I am happy to recommend. I will certainly reach out to them again if I have the need in the future. Thank you!

What I loved most about Ron's service is his utmost work ethics and incredible knowledge of Yaletown. Next time I'll be looking for a condo to buy (or to sell my current one for that matter), I'll go with Ron.
