Craig Doherty LLB Reviews

Craig went above and beyond in selling our house in under two weeks which is exceptional for Lions Bay. He had drone floorplans and pictures done within a week on our schedule and was very mindful of all Covid practises during the process. He also brought Buyers to the table which worked to our benefit. I highly recommend Craig you will be pleased with his knowledge and professionalism.

I would highly recommend Craig. His deep knowledge of the neighborhood, his professionalism, his close attention to all the details and his professional legal background were all important especially when we were selling during a tough time in a buyer's market. For anyone buying or selling in Lions Bay there is also the benefit that Craig has his business right in Lions Bay and is very involved in the neighborhood with a strong stake in its success.

Selling or buying a home is not only a significant financial event in one's life, it can be a very emotional time. Craig understands both. He is outstanding in developing relationships based on a genuine desire to know you, your home and your community. Craig is extremely knowledgeable about the housing market and will work diligently to represent you and your home. He is also a gifted communicator. He not only reads people well, he asks questions to avoid making assumptions and makes himself available to respond to requests and concerns. Add a witty sense of humour and joy for life to round out the experience, and we have felt very fortunate to have Craig as our realtor.

<p>I have bought and sold nine residential properties over the years. The client service and support style that I prefer from a realtor is business based. Having the available facts presented, such as they are, and providing support for opinions offered, as best can be done in a real estate market, is/was what I need to make informed decisions. This is specific to what I think are the four primary service attributes in a realtor's contribution to a (successful) residential property sale: what should be the initial list price (or pricing range) and why; when to drop the price and why; by how much to drop and why; and, negotiating strategy. I found that Mr. Doherty's general orientation to the listing and sales process, and his style in client interaction, well approached the type of service and assistance from a realtor that I prefer.</p>

<p>Craig is an outstanding realtor through and through. He is brilliant on many fronts: the ability to problem-solve, brainstorm creative solutions, and is also very articulate and personable. Always kind, approachable, and patient.<br /> I recommend him highly and without reservation.</p>

<p>For three years we have enjoyed the stunning panoramic views over Howe Sound from our West Vancouver home, but we were moving to Europe on relatively short notice and therefore our house was put up for sale. Several realtors said that they had serious buyers for a property in our neighborhood but Craig was the only one who really seemed interested in matching our need to sell quickly with the buyers' wish to buy a house that would suit them. He explained the realities of the West Vancouver property market at the time and we worked out a pragmatic approach to price our house to sell. The rest is history because Craig had the right contacts with potential buyers and other realtors to generate interest in our house. Within 10 days after listing, our place was under contract at a price that the buyers and we are satisfied with. We are now looking forward to closing and should we ever return to Vancouver, Craig will be the man we contact first.</p>
