As a first time home buyer, it was a fairly daunting experience. But Sylvia was just an absolute pleasure to work with. My wife and I had tons of questions and Sylvia was extremely patient and very thorough in helping us with it all. She listened keenly to what our needs are, showed us properties that matched our needs and then some more to help us with a comparative analysis of the market. By the time we settled on one, as buyers we were very confident with our purchase. After purchasing the home she stayed in touch with updates regarding the property market near my home, basically going above and beyond in every possible way. I have already recommended her to family and friends knowing that they'll be in good hands her. I'm so glad that I got to work with her and am looking forward to doing it again in the future!

I could not have asked for a better realtor. I found Sylvia at an open house after a few months of my wife and I trying to do the condo search on our own. She's very knowledgeable and honest about the places we viewed, and didn't shy away from telling us any deficiencies with the unit. She definitely was working in our best interest, as we didn't feel pressure to buy until we found the right place. She was also very quick to respond to my many emails. Probably the best part of my experience was seeing Sylvia's negotiation skills. I had submitted offers on 4 places before I finally got one that was accepted, but before each one we would have a chat to come up with a strategy (and also helped come up with price-points when I wasn't sure). All of the offers I lost were bidding-war type situations, of which it was hard to compete in this city. My winning offer avoided this situation because Sylvia was able to get me a sneak peek of the condo the day after it was listed (it was not even on REW at this point). After having an accepted offer the next day, I came back to scope out the open house on the weekend and it was packed. So definitely avoided another multiple offer situation there. Sylvia went above and beyond, so I can't recommend her enough. Just to give an example, after finding some painters for my new place, Sylvia suggested that she give them a call too. She was able to lower the price by 15% by contacting one of her acquaintances. Due to all her hard work, we'll definitely be looking for Sylvia again the next time we decide to move.

We had a great experience with Sylvia when we were looking to buy our first home. She was personable, professional, and a joy to work with. She clearly cares about her clients, as she helped search for and guide us to our wonderful home (after only 2 weeks of looking!). We would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in or around the Vancouver area.

I had used Sylvia Nguyen as my agent to buy my first condo. When I was looking for condo I did canvas different realtor, but I chose to go with Sylvia. Compared to others, I felt that with Sylvia she would understand and know her client to best help them find what they need and what works best for them. She is very professional and knowledgeable and uses her resources well. I am very glad I went with Sylvia as she went over and beyond her duties to help me find and purchase my place.

We cannot say enough about having Sylvia as our realtor for the recent sale of our home. She worked meticulously from the beginning getting a professional photographer and creating both a brochure and hundreds of postcards which she distributed around our neighborhood and surrounding area, she even knocked on doors talking to residents about the upcoming listing of our property. Her open houses were very well planned and made sure that everything was warm and welcoming for prospective clients whom she spent time with upon their visit(s). Sylvia even had suggestions for rental suite ideas as many new buyers in the market for housing these days depend on that. At a time when real estate sales were starting to slow and seeing housing prices starting to decrease, Sylvia was able to bring us an offer we accepted within two weeks of listing. In addition to all of this, we are looking to purchase a new home in the Salmon Arm area and Sylvia utilized her network of contacts to recommend several realtors in that area to which we could pick from going above and beyond the sale of our home. Her knowledge of the market is very solid. We highly recommend Sylvia as a passionate and dedicated realtor! You will be very happy you chose her. We certainly are.

This is a long overdue review, but Sylvia is professional, knowledgeable and great to deal with. She helped with my first home purchase. Being a first time buyer can be a bit daunting at first, but she walked me through the entire process. She's a great negotiator and went above and beyond what I was expecting, and was able to settle the purchase with a price below what I was willing to pay. I'd definitely recommend Sylvia to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Sylvia helped me sell my property and I was super satisfied with her service. She is a very passionate person and she loves what she is doing. She always stands by the client' side and make the best for the client. She does things step by step, and make the process very clear and almost perfect. In order to market the property well, she does research and gives good advice to me, and she is the best open house show person I have ever seen. Sylvia works very hard and makes me feel that she is selling her own property. If you want to find a trustworthy realtor, she is the one. I will definitely recommend her to my family and friends.

Sylvia was very professional and knowledgeable in selling my home as well as when helping me find a new place. She responded to calls quickly and answered any questions I had. I did not expect my house to sell quickly as the market for detached homes had slowed. However, with Sylvia's marketing skills and eye for showcasing a home to prospective buyers, my house sold within a couple of weeks. Her knowledge of the real estate market and the dedication she shows her clients is impressive. I would highly recommend Sylvia to anyone who is looking for an agent.

My husband & I had a great experience working with Sylvia. We first used her to manage our unit as a renatal property. She handled everything from the start! We felt so lucky to have her. I know the tennant's were very fond of her as well. When it came time to sell our property, we had no doubt we would use her as our agent! I honestly can't say enough good things about Syliva. She was knowledgeable, approachable, patient, confident and trustworthy. She worked hard for us, organized all the open houses, follow ups ect. She really did make what could have been a very stressful time seem like a breeze. I have and will continue to recommend Sylvia to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She is truely talented 😀

Sylvia Nguyen is a professional in every sense of the word. My mother had the pleasure of having her help sell her home. Since the market for detached homes has slowed down considerably we were expecting the house to be listed for awhile, however to our pleasant surprise Sylvia was able to close a deal in less than two weeks at the price my mother was seeking. She did this with her undeniable passion for the industry and devotion to her clients. She is one of the few agents I have seen that takes great care in showcasing the property she is representing, not only through advertisement but with her amazing open houses. The element that makes her open houses different than other agents open houses is she makes it an experience when walking into the home. She is very knowledgeable of the property she is selling, and the neighbourhood it is in, highlighting the best features of the home she is presenting. She paints a picture to all that are interested in buying the property, making it easy for them to envision themselves living in the home and area. Most agents just put up a couple of signs and do not even interact with the parties that walk through. it is clear to me after how she worked with my mother that if you want an agent that will actually put the care and energy into you and your home, whether you are buying or selling, you will not be disappointed hiring Sylvia as your agent.

After working with few realtors in the past , I have concluded that Sylvia is one of the best realtors one can have . She is very patient, genuine, caring, and hard working realtor who has very good knowledge in the housing market in the Metro Vancouver area. As a buyer, she helped me to land on a very good purchase deal after intensive search in a very busy housing market. She acted very fast, negotiated very well, and made thorough assessment (all the pros and cons) of the purchased unit. Even when the deal was completed and she got her commission , she continued to work with me (on a voluntary basis) on few outstanding issues related to purchased unit.
