Nanaimo Realty and Real Estate Solutions for Nanaimo Homes and Vancouver Island with the RE/MAX touch

Testimonials
I recently have had occasion to view several, probably more than a dozen or so, mobile homes in the Parksville, Nanaoose Bay, Chase River and Nanaimo areas-all conducted by Mr. Mark Koch. I wish to ensure that you are aware of how my family and I were impressed with Mark’s skills, especially his business acumen, patience, ethics, people skills, knowledge and politeness. As well, if there were any question for which he could not immediately have an answer to, he always somehow found an answer for me. He answered all calls and emails and went out of his way to try and find a suitable home for me. Also, he was polite and extremely personable to myself and to my family.I would recommend Mark as a realtor to anyone.
Yours truly,
Julia Mitchell.

Dear Dave Thompson
On behalf of everyone at Woodgrove Center and the United Way of Nanaimo & District, I wish to express our sincere appreciation for your support of the 2004 Let's Go Groucho campaign.While we were slightly under the required number of signatures to break the current Guinness World Record, the event was hugely successful in term of public awareness and support. Hundreds of people participated with enthusiasm wearing their Groucho glasses, and went away feeling like they had made a contribution. The event was also successful in raising $5641.00 for the United Way. Without your commitment to the community, this event simply would not have been a success. Thank you again!
Sincerely,
Nola Dunn, CMD.
Marketing Manager,
Woodgrove Center.

I have bought and sold many properties over the years and have dealt with numerous realtors. Mark Koch has been the only realtor that has impressed me enough to write this letter of recommendation. He was professional, courteous, knowledgeable and very helpful. My condo had been on the market for 1 1/2 years in Victoria. Mark listened to what my needs were in the Nanaimo market and kept in touch, sending me listings within my price range and requirements. When I finally sold my Victoria condo I of course listed with Mark in Nanaimo. It was refreshing to have a realtor who "really" listened to what my goals were and then helped me make the choice of a property that was the best fit. When viewing listings he kept me on track with good advice about which aspects of the property would help or hinder my 5 year goal. When presenting an offer he "went to bat" for me and made sure he got the best deal possible. The key was on going communication as we were in different cities, and when he was working with me I felt I was his priority. When it comes time for me to sell my property in the future Mark Koch will be the only realtor I'll call.

Dear Brian
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the excellent service that you and your co-workers provided to me in the selling of my home and the purchase of my new home. From our first meeting, I was very impressed with the time and effort that you took to educate me on the current market conditions and all the information you provided with regard to comparable listings. You provided outstanding advertising tools and my home sold within 2 weeks. In the purchase of my new home your professionalism and expertise was a huge asset ...one particular tip from you saved me thousands of dollars. Your help and support in dealing with a difficult project manager went beyond your responsibility, but is truly appreciated and will not be forgotten.You are a true professional and I will continue to recommend you to family and friends.
Thanks again.
Yours truly

Hi Dave,
We just wanted to thank you and Debbie and all of your crew for the fast, easy, smooth sale of our house. We were very fortunate with the timing of the listing and you also presented the house so very nicely. Thank you for the lovely unexpected gift. We are doing very well and not looking back. Everything has fallen into place as if the move was meant to be. If you are ever down this way look us up.
Thanks again,
Gail & Ken.

It took me 3 years of on and off looking to find my new home. In those 3 years, Brian Godfrey was consistently supportive and professional. He never once showed impatience and was always willling to arrange for me to see listings, even if he knew it would not be a good choice for me. And, when Brian was not available, his partner, Dave Thompson took good care of me as well. Furthermore, the office staff was pleasant, caring, and thorough. Finally, what I find extraordinary is that, even after the sale was made, Brian continued to be supportive, offering to help in any way he could should any issues arise. He truly wants what's best for me. It's not just another sale. If you want a team that will really be there for you, go to the Thompson Godfrey Group. I love my new home!

Mark,
Betty and I would like to thank you and the whole Thompson Godfrey team for your services in selling our home and assisting us in the purchase of our home here in Craig Bay. We were very impressed and satisfied with your approach, advice, availability and diligence in performing your tasks.
We are excited about the amenities in our new home and the opportunities and challenges that will be presented to us in the weeks, months and years to come. Thank you for the house warming gifts and if you are up our way, please don't hesitate to drop in for a cup of coffee and a visit.

To Dave
Nathan and I wanted to thank you for your huge effort in selling our house. We were impressed by the amount of advertising that you used, our house was everywhere and I am certain that contributed to its sale in the time frame needed. I also want to compliment you on your knowledge of market value for houses in different areas especially ours. You listed our house at a fair and competitive price. We appreciated the feedback that you gave us after each showing; it gave us a little insight into the buyers mind. I know that you and your team were extremely busy but we never got that impression, you always called us back right away and kept us up to date on any information. It was a pleasure to deal with you and your team; we would highly recommend you anytime.
Thank you again
Koreen and Nathan Trobridge

Dear Dave and Brian,
This letter of appreciation is long overdue, especially in consideration of the outstanding service you provided in marketing and selling my mother's house. Your advice about setting a listing price, arranging carpet cleaning and electrical repairs, all within mere hours of meeting with you, was more than I could have possibly expected. Because of your immediate response in the drawing up documents, photographing and listing, a purchaser was found within two weeks. Also, the communication with my sister and our lawyer provided a smooth transition to the final completion of the sale.Thank you once again for making a difficult time free of potential hazards.
Yours truly,
Linda Patterson.

I just wanted to let you know that my wife and I really enjoyed Mark working with us. He listened to what we were looking for and gave us great help & suggestions. He was very personal and professional as well as running around for us when needed. We really felt that he was looking out for our best interests.He helped us purchase 3060 Rock City rd from a VERY difficult seller. I just wanted to let you know that you have a very good realtor working for you and because of this we WILL be working with Mark again. We plan on buying a investment property soon and Mark will get our call.
