Godfrey Forssman Milandro & Jannette PacrisJune 6 Greg & Susan Nottle"I am pleased to offer my thanks to Gail Seymour for all of her assistance relating to the search and eventual purchase of our house in Kitsilano, Vancouver. We appointed Gail as “buyers agent” earlier in the year, when we re-located to Vancouver from Australia. Even before we arrived Gail was very helpful in offering advice as to a wide range of real estate issues, such as location , school catchments, prices and prevailing market conditions. She was extremely valuable in allowing us to better understand the Vancouver real estate “system” and the benefits or otherwise of one suburb over another. Once we began the search for a house to buy Gail was very effective in identifying suitable properties and escorted us to every open house. We found her opinions and observations extremely valuable. We appreciated her insights on every house and found she had a very good eye for value. Gail was always available for our calls and enquiries and would often come and visit to discuss any matters at all. Gail was also very effective once we entered negotiations on properties, especially as we were new to the process in BC. Gail was able to provide valuable feedback as to the agent – agent negotiations and in no small way was instrumental in ensuring that we were the successful party once we decided on the house we liked. I have no hesitation in recommending Gail Seymour to any prospective buyer or seller as a person of high professional standards, integrity and honesty. With kind regards, Greg and Susan Nottle" Roger L. Francke"PROGRESSIVE CONSTRUCTION LTD August 29, 2011 Reference for Gail Seymour To Whom it may concern, Gail Seymour was the selling agent engaged to sell a unit owned in the “The Sakura” building at 1333 West 11th Avenue, Vancouver, in April 2011. The unit was a rental unit. The task was a challenge as there were three competing units for sale in the building at the time, particularly in a building that had above market condo fees with little or no amenities, other than above average location and views. Gail conducted open house viewings herself rather than delegating what is typically an unrewarding task, providing weekly feedback as to the number of viewings and gauging the level of interest. Her research of the overall market and recommendation as to listing price and expectation of ultimate selling price was uncannily accurate. What was most impressive was Gail’s tenacity and enthusiasm when it appeared that the listing was perhaps getting “stale”. The ultimate buyers were very particular and even though the property managers had “refreshed” the unit (complete re-paint, fix/ repair all appliances, lights, etc.,) there were a number of fussy items the buyers requested be fixed prior to closing. Gail took the initiative and arranged for all the items to be fixed to the satisfaction of the buyers. When the buyers requested a move-in date prior to closing, Gail took care of all the paperwork and oversaw the physical move-in to protect the buyer and the seller. Above all the unit sold in 8 weeks for the price Gail thought she could achieve, which is the ultimate test. I would not hesitate to use Gail again should the occasion arise. Yours Truly, PROGESSIVE CONSTRUCTION Roger L. Francke Senior Vice President" Irene"I looked for over a year to find the perfect home – one that has character, close to everything and is easy to maintain.

I was always happy with how hard she worked for us. We fully recommend Gail to be the one to help you find your next home! Akio & Soowon Kimoto " Glenn & Mary Hughes"Upon newly arriving in BC and looking at many online listings we could not find a rental unit that we were happy with and so decided to purchase a townhouse or condominium. We found Gail's website was easy to use; it allowed us to enter various parameters to narrow our searches for places to buy. However, when you are not familiar with the Vancouver area it can be confusing where to live and what to buy. We contacted Gail and she was quick to respond to our inquiry, treating us as if we were her only clients. She kept in frequent contact and supplied us with many places to consider. She tried hard to anticipate our needs and used her experience to point out the strong and weak points about the places we considered and ultimately led us to a condo that we are extremely happy with. We would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks again Gail." Glenn and Mary Hughes" Andrew and Pramonika"We love our new home. Gail has gone beyond and above our wish list. We are a very satisfied with our purchase and dealings with Gail. I would highly recommend using Gail to anyone purchasing a house. Thank you Gail for your commitment to our family and dream. Thank you Pramonika, Andrew, Brandon, Lucky, Cooper and Lacy" Kim RosenmayerWhen I first returned to Vancouver I started looking for a home for my family. She listened to what I wanted and I felt confident that she had my best interests at heart. She kept me in the loop through the whole process and made it less stressful. I have now purchased my second home and again used her services. I would recommend her services to anybody Dianna SimmonsWhen I decided it was time for me to move on up and get a home closer to my dream home. I contacted Gail and asked her to help me. It was a decision that has had a profound effect on my life! Not only did she sell the condo I had been living in for 4 years, but she also helped me purchase a beautiful new home! Through her hard work and understanding nature, Gail made me feel as if I was her only client, and a friendship easily blossomed between us. She did whatever she could to make sure I understood every step of the journey, and was always available to patiently answer my many questions and what if scenarios. Her genuine smile eased my worries, and her honest approach calmed any growing fears I had, and allowed me to actually relax and let the process work. I am thrilled to be the owner of a fantastic new home, and am very excited to embark on a new chapter in my life! Thank you Gail... I would not have managed to create my dream without you! (Vancouver) John ChuThank you again for all the effort you have put in from the very beginning with the sale of my house till it was sold. Most importantly, I was surprised the house could be sold within only 2-3 weeks. This results enabled me not only to pay off the mortgage soon and also to relief the great strain put on me for a long time. In addition there are a few points that impressed me very deeply during the process of the sale. 1. A brief but clear and complete description about the house was liste on the market. The description of the house in terms of the amenities and it ideal location attractived many buyers.2. You have always kept a positive and optimistic attitude even if there was a issue encountered in the process of the sale of the house. It filled me with confidence.3.With positive negotiations skills and good work ethics you choose the right offer as well as the right buyer. With detailed analysis and a professional judgement this made the sale of the house a certainty. I would like to recomment you as a realtor to all my friends in North Vancouver who are planning to sell//buy a new house. Mrs. L. KumarI am sending this letter to you in appreciation and effort you have put in selling my condo. I had previously tried to sell my condo through different agents but was not successful. Very frustrated and trying to look for a good agent is very difficult to find. Finally I went through the listing agents who did recent sales at Coal Harbour and saw your name. Without a second thought in my mind I contacted you to list my property and realized I made the right decision. You did all the open house yourself and not having someone else to act on your behalf which really made a difference. Thank you for your hard work and dedication through all the tough negotiations. I will recommend anyone who is selling or buying a property to her. Mrs. L. Kumar |
