Deciding to return to Ottawa a decade or more ago, I found Dan most helpful and knowledgeable about the local housing market.

Dan…knows the market particularly well in Centretown, Glebe, Ottawa East and Ottawa South. He is very knowledgeable, pays attention to detail, offered good advice/ strategies and is easy to get along with. I was quite pleased with all aspects of the listing and sale of my place.

Moving with the military is one of the worst administrative nightmares imaginable. You can not afford a realtor that is anything less than perfect. Dan stuck out to me in the BGRS database due to his education as a computer engineer, his experience as a realtor and that he decided to start his own business. Although I had high expectations, Dan still managed to blow them away. He paid for several services that increased the value of my property from his own pocket and was available every hour no matter the day. Based on previous experiences, I felt that realtors did barely anything and you had to do all the work – turns out I was just selecting bad ones!

I had the pleasure of working with Jean Marc on the purchase of my first home. As a first time buyer, the process seemed daunting but with Jean Marc’s help, each step was so easy. From the first call to discuss what I was looking for, to setting up visits and driving me around the city, discussing my options, walking me through all the paperwork, recommending a mortgage broker, negotiating the perfect deal…Jean Marc was there! Always professional, knowledgeable, personable, keeping an optimistic but realistic outlook on the process; I could not have asked for a better agent. I would recommend Jean Marc to anyone and will definitely look to him for help when I sell my current home and buy the next one.

Jean Marc was instrumental in helping us navigate the real estate market both as first-time home buyers and, later, as real estate investors. His keen eye for recognizing the hidden potential in properties has been honed over years of buying, renovating and selling many of his own properties. With his expertise and guidance, Jean Marc has helped us to select and purchase 3 properties, each of which were converted into successful income-producing properties. His excellent advice and recommendations were always appreciated; not just during the purchase process, but during the renovation process as well. Thank you, Jean Marc!

I had the challenge of finding a good family home with the potential for a rental unit, on a rather limited budget. Jean Marc came through with flying colours! Not only is he very knowledgeable about the Ottawa Real Estate market he also has extensive experience in developing properties for rental and resale. He has a real knack for identifying properties with developmental potential and then quickly sorting the good from the bad. This saved me much time, money and headache!
On the money side, Jean Marc knows value when he sees it and is very resourceful and strategic in his negotiations. He got me a great deal on a great property.
Respectful, professional, diligent and patient. Jean Marc made the experience of searching, evaluating and ultimately purchasing a very enjoyable one and I am happy to recommend him to my best friends and family.

Dan is an honest, knowledgeable, professional and friendly realtor. As a first time buyer, I had so many questions about the neighbourhood, the type and the value of the home that I should buy. Dan patiently and promptly answered ALL of my questions to my total satisfaction and he was available any time I wanted to view a house. When necessary, he made me his priority and as a result I won a bidding war on a big, beautiful, turn-key home that meets all of my family’s needs. I look forward to working with Dan again in the future when my children have grown, I have retired and I am ready to down-size.

Dan made the stressful process of selling my condo and buying a new home understandable and enjoyable. He responded to my many questions in a timely and complete manner, helped me weigh pros and cons of different options, set up viewings with speed, and reminded me of my objectives when I needed it. I would recommend Dan to anyone looking to sell or purchase property in Ottawa’s downtown.
