She brings this corporate edge into every transaction, helping clients sell for record prices and buy with clarity and confidence.

Having bought, sold, and renovated multiple properties herself, she has an incredible eye for design and a sharp instinct for spotting value and potential, skills that help her clients maximize every opportunity.
Denise founded the Mai Real Estate Group in 2023 with a mission to help people achieve their real estate goals while mentoring agents to become leaders in the industry. In just one year, her team earned top recognition as one of Vancouver’s top 10% Medallion Teams and among the top 10 teams in British Columbia.
Known for her powerful marketing strategies, negotiation expertise, and results-driven mindset, Denise continues to redefine what’s possible for her clients, whether it’s securing a dream home, maximizing a sale, or building long-term financial freedom through real estate.
Her clients often describe her as professional, strategic, and deeply caring, someone who treats every deal like her own.

Denise is Professional, Ethical, Elegant, Committed, Honest, Respectful and an Understanding business woman.
Such a personality is very hard to find in a business environment regardless of the industry or the country you are trading in.
Along all my years as an international business person I only came across with few people having so many business skills and the strength to get things done on time, under any circumstances.
Denise, sold 2 of my condos during the worst Real Estate market in 2018.
As a business person I’m extremely hard to please, before hiring Denise I interviewed 7 realtors and I’m very happy to see that she “worked with me and for me” to complete the sales of my two properties on timely manner.
My suggestion is that you hire her and follow her business advices with trust and confidence.

Denise is an incredible realtor. She helped me break into the Vancouver real estate market (no easy feat!) when I was in my twenties and later helped me sell the same property. She was fantastic both times. I appreciated her no-pressure approach but also her willingness to put in the work to get a deal done. I can't recommend her enough.

Denise is beyond amazing. She helped us find our first condo 5 years ago, and just recently worked with us again to sell it and purchase our new bigger home. The most incredible thing is our condo sold for way over asking and with 22 offers! Denise works magic!
She's brilliant, thoughtful, and truly cares - plus she's real sweet and enjoyable to be around which is a total bonus.
We always recommend her a million times over.

So I put my place up for rent online. A person named Varun Seth calls me to tell me he has potential buyers for it and sets up a meeting with me. Even sends me a confirmation email and then never shows. No phone call no email not even a text to say he won't be coming.
Little that he knows I've rearranged my day to make this meeting!
I even called the listed number on denisemai website and left a message and no return..and I doubt I will ever hear from them. Don't call people and talk all this rubish if you aren't serious!!!
