My References
Companies don’t hire people without first checking their references. You shouldn’t work with someone without checking their references either. This is what some of my clients have said about me recently here.

Dear Charlene,

Thank you so much for everything you did for our family to sell our home.  You are extremely professional and committed to what you do.  The dedication you provided to us was above and beyond.  You made the whole experience as painless as possible and you worked hard to get us a selling price that we were happy with.  Thank you for all the time you spent evaluating the market to ensure we came to a fair market value of our home.

We also thank you for providing us with a great referral in another province so that we could buy our new dream home.  Now that we are settled in our new home I wanted to take the time to write and thank you for all that you hve done for our family.  We will be sure to recommend you to any of our friends and family that require real estate advise.

Hi Charlene,

I wanted to email you a big thank you for being so awesome and amazing throughout our entire purchase process.  You took care of us before, during and after the move.  We would have been absolutely lost without your patience, guidance and support.  We are very happy in our new home. 

Again...thank you from the very bottom of our hearts.  I hope you know how much you helped us.  We really appreciate all that you have done.  You are definitely a unique and special person, which is why you stick out from the rest.

As always, we will continue to recommend your services to anyone we know that’s in the market to buy or sell.

Sincerely,

Cheryl & Brian

What can I say about Charlene Speers except grab her if you can!

I mentioned to a colleague that my husband and I were looking for a new home. She immediately said you have to talk to Charlene and promptly got her on the phone. Were they friends? Absolutely! They met when my colleague purchased her home through Charlene. I’ve since said on many occasions, that that referral was one of the nicest things anyone had done for me.

Charlene was there for us day and night. She went out of her way to find us the home of our dreams and then she sold our townhouse in record time, for much more than we hoped.

Excited and enthusiastic about her work, Charlene made the process of purchasing our new home and selling our old, an absolute delight! She is professional, highly knowledgeable, very friendly and most importantly, honest and trustworthy. Her high level of integrity should be valued as something very special

Now Charlene is the only realtor we would consider using and we don’t hesitate to refer her to both our friends and our family. Just one more thing -- her husband Ken is great too!

Charlene made our house buying experience wonderful. This was our second house but our first experience with a realtor. We purchased our first house privately and although everything got completed, it was a stressful endeavor. The difference it made having Charlene to help us with the purchase was unbelievable.

For our second house we needed to purchase it on a quick deadline as our home had already sold and we needed a place to go ASAP. Charlene was recommended to us by a fellow realtor, and we are glad she was. She listened to exactly what we were looking for on our first phone call. Within the day she emailed us listings and specs with pictures of almost a dozen houses to look at. We were absolutely amazed at how fast she responded to finding us houses that were exactly what we said we wanted to look at.

Touring the houses with Charlene was a pleasure. She never once pushed us to make a decision. She had done her research on the home to answer any questions for us and what she couldn’t answer she followed up on and let us know. She listened to our comments on things we liked and disliked so that when she searched for other houses for us to look at on the MLS listing she could ensure she was showing us houses we would like. Charlene always made herself available for us which was excellent due to our tight schedule to purchase a new home.

Charlene was an integral part in helping us find and buy our dream home. We have now lived in it for a year and are still so happy with it. We have recommended Charlene to everyone we know looking to buy or sell a home.

Thanks so much Charlene!

Sincerely,

Craig and Jacqueline.

We were extremely lucky to meet Charlene and have her sell our home. Charlene was always very helpful, she promptly answered all our questions, gave us suggestions and was very professional, she also became a friend.

Charlene was quick to get our house on the market, signs posted and hold several open houses. She kept us up to date with the process in selling our house and was always just a phone call away. She walked us through the final process of selling our home with ease, clearly stated all options available to us and was always honest and thorough.

It was great to have a real estate agent who was excited and eager to sell our home for us. She made selling our home a really enjoyable experience. We really enjoyed our time working with Charlene and enjoyed all conversations with her.

Charlene is truly an amazing woman and real estate agent. I would and will highly recommend her to my family and friends.

Deciding to buy a new home and to sell the one I had lived in for 35 years was very stressful.  Luckily,  I found Charlene and she proved to be the ideal agent for me.  With her husband, Ken, she was my anchor in the storm, keeping me on track and providing a good model of cool-headed decision-making.  
 
Charlene guided my real estate experience so that it was very successful and I was happy with the results.  I was always encouraged to take the time necessary to think carefully before acting and to feel good about my final decisions.  The Speers made me feel like I was the most important person in their lives at that time, giving me what seemed to be their undivided attention.  They didn’t answer ringing cell phones or pagers while we were together and appointments were always at my convenience.

Without question, I would recommend Charlene Speers as the realtor of choice in Edmonton.

Charlene, From the time we contacted you, you were ready to place our home on the market. You didn’t pressure us and once we decided to list, you came to our home for consultation, answered our questions and promptly undertook the task of marketing through a variety of means. We were impressed with your professionalism, your patience and your quick responses to our e-mails or calls. You stand out among the crowd of realtors, and you exhibit resilience and determination for all times of markets, be it a buyer’s or seller’s market. We have already referred you to our friends, and we will be using you for our future needs. Thanks again for everything!   Sarah and Ted.

Charlene

Thank you so much for assisting us with the purchase of our new home.

We never thought that trying to purchase a new home while living so far from Edmonton would go so smoothly.  From the moment we met you we felt as though we were working with someone we had known all our lives. The honesty, patience and professionalism you displayed while showing us homes made the whole process informative and stress free.

It was a huge relief that you listened to our description of what we were looking for and found homes to view that so closely matched our wishes.  We never once felt that you were pressuring us into making a decision that we weren’t ready for. 

The way you adjusted your schedule to meet with us and also helping with details once the deal was finalized was greatly appreciated.

We wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to contact you again if we are looking at purchasing or selling another home and we would definitely recommend you to any of our friends that might be looking to do the same. 

Again thank you so much and take care.

Ted, Grace, Adrienne and Steven
