Testimonials

We would like to extend our gratitude on the sale of our home to Kamer, Brigitte,& Diko ( The Karakas Team). They started with sound advice regarding staging and cleanup that was simple and effective. The marketing photos, video and hand out brochure was way above our expectations. Their marketing was also very impressive. Our Personal folio allowed us to see their marketing exposure through updates. The many countless hours they spent with open houses, private showings. They are number one in our eyes. The professionalism is beyond words can say. We would highly recommend the Karakas Team  

Thank you to the Karakas Team for their exceptional service in selling my property. The entire transaction from start to finish was seamless. They are professional and very knowledgeable and worked with me every step of the way. I’m very happy to have used them and highly recommend them.

Diko was not like any other real estate agent who just want to take your money. Diko is the most patience and caring agent I’ve ever met and interacted. He generously cares for all his clients, he gives his client 110% effort also made sure the developer I chose built in good quality, in good area and If not he would, he would be honest with me. Diko also does not rush me to buy any property or force me to buy something if I don’t like it, he would provide me more options and or even spend extra time viewing the pre-sale, I first felt really bad because I was taking too long to decide however Diko mentioned that if i don’t like it, he could do more research based on my preference (area, style, convenience, and budget) . After a year of searching Diko have finally secured an amazing pre-sale condo for me. I would definitely recommend Diko to my family and friends or anyone who is looking for a real estate agent to help to buy or sell a property.

Diko has been a huge help with purchasing my apartment. Being a new buyer, I had no idea what how much work there was, and how little I knew. Diko was very knowledgeable and guided me throughout the process, asked the right questions, and was always prepared to give me the run down before about each apartment before we went for a showing. He was honest about the positives and negatives of each property, and never sugar coated any of the negatives, I really appreciate how he told you how it really is. If the was ever an urgent matter, and Diko was unavailable, I always had the possibility to call or message Kamer and Brigitte, who were always happy to help! Even though the process took month for me to find the place that I really liked (I kept changing my mind), Diko was patient and never let my indecisiveness affect the quality of service he provided. I don't think I could have made a better choose than working with Diko and The Karakas Team. When the time comes, I will without a doubt contact Diko again!

Diko has been an absolute pleasure to work with. We moved across the province to BC, and were unfamiliar with the real estate market out here. He was patient and educated us on the different neighbourhoods and provide us insightful advice! He made this process so easy and enjoyable for us. We could not have asked for a better realtor - thank you so much!“We would like to thank Brigitte and Kamer for all the help and support they gave us in the buying of our first home. Being ‘First Time Buyers’, they took the time to explain to us everything we needed to know about, what to look for, and what to avoid, when buying a home. At times they were showing us up to 10 properties per week and were very patient when we declined each one of them. When we became anxious, we remember Kamer saying, ” I won’t let you buy a property that is not right for you.”

“Brigitte and Kamer were our realtors for the sale of our home of more than 21 years. As it was a rather emotional sale for us, they both were most understanding and professional with regards to their knowledge, expertise, and most importantly our needs. They helped us select another home which was perfect for our lifestyle – they were patient with us throughout the process of selling our home which, at the time, was during a slight downturn in the market. Their always positive, confident attitudes helped us during the times where we might have questioned whether we were doing the right thing in selling our home. The transission to our new home went better for us than we could ever have imagined – we thank the team of Brigitte and Kamer for their integrity and wisdom in the real estate market in guiding us in the right direction. We have and will recommend them to our friends and know they will always be outstanding and can be counted on when selling or buying a home. Thank you both for your sincerity in represent us!”

“We first met Kamer when we relocated to West Vancouver and bought a house he owned from him. His straightforward negotiations and honest approach impressed us. As well, having lived on the North Shore for many years, he also showed a great deal of knowledge about the North Shore Real Estate market. For these reasons, when we were considering purchasing an investment property in West Vancouver, we asked Kamer to help us. Again, we found him to be accommodating and vigilant concerning new listings. He kept us aware of the market, but did not make us feel pressured into buying. Finally, the “right” house came on the market, and while the transaction required a sense of urgency, Kamer made it an uncomplicated matter. ”

“Dear Prospective Home Buyer:
We’d like to share with you our recent home buying experience with Prudential agent Kamer Karakas. When we set out to buy a new home, we had very specific requirements in mind. For almost a year Kamer showed us a many homes that had just one of these elements missing. Never did he get frustrated, give up, or apply any undo pressure. Until one day the right home appeared on the market. We actually saw it before the “For Sale” sign went up because he was constantly monitoring new listings on the computer. As soon as it was listed, we were there first. And when we saw it we knew. We made the decision to buy this house in one hour. I’ve spent more time buying shoes. The reason we were so comfortable in making such a quick decision was that Kamer had done his homework and shown us enough homes so that we knew the market well enough to realize this is the home we wanted. The house did require some renovations. The great part was that Kamer, who has built several homes, was very helpful in advising us and recommending reliable trades people he had worked with before. Although we ourselves had no prior experience in home renovation, with Kamer’s help it was on budget and on time. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Kamer to act as your agent in buying or selling your next home. We are sure you will be as satisfied as we were. ”
