"Shaun's area knowledge and strategic thinking were key to getting sold before the market turned down again for the year. We wholeheartedly recommend Shaun's services to anyone thinking of selling their luxury property in Coal Harbour."

My husband and I had previously listed our Coal Harbour waterfront townhouse twice with two other realtors. They showed our property to countless prospective buyers but were unable to generate a sale. When we finally concluded that we needed the assistance of a local area specialist, we enlisted the services of Shaun. He sold our property in 5 days at very good price in a difficult, rapidly-changing market. As Coal Harbour's most specialized realtor, he is able to "cross-pollinate" his listings. The buyers of our property first went to view another of Shaun's area listings so Shaun took the opportunity to show them through our property. In almost no time, Shaun strategically engineered competition between 3 groups of buyers and achieved a successful sale in a matter of days. Shaun's area knowledge and strategic thinking were key to getting sold before the market turned down again for the year. We wholeheartedly recommend Shaun's services to anyone thinking of selling their luxury property in Coal Harbour.

"The smoothest and most professional real estate experience we have ever had"

The smoothest and most professional real estate experience we have ever had. Shaun was on top of everything keeping us informed and handled all the details.

"We would recommend Shaun's services to other non-resident sellers"

As non-resident sellers, we worked with Shaun on the sale of 2 condo properties, one of which had been listed by another agent and previously remained unsold. We found that Shaun's detailed knowledge of our specific market and his condo specialization experience served us very well and both properties sold during a very difficult period in the real estate market. Shaun's professionalism, attention to detail and timely communications facilitated both sales without requiring our presence in Vancouver on either occasion. We would recommend Shaun's services to other non-resident sellers.

"Shaun made the process of selling property while living outside Canada, seamless and less stressful"

I owned a vacation property for personal use only and had much hesitation around selling my condo as I was unfamiliar with the non-resident process. I needed direction as a first time seller of non-residential property. Shaun made this entire process less intimidating by providing basic information and fundamental direction to get the process started. With each step I felt more confident and less hesitant with the process.

I made the choice to work with Shaun because of his knowledge and ability to provide solid recommendation and direction for a non-resident sale of a property in Canada.

Shaun made the process of selling property while living outside Canada, seamless and less stressful. My condo sold in less than 48 hours for over asking price with competing offers.   I felt that Shaun was very professional and handled the entire process with utmost integrity. I was please and surprised to move so fast.  I knew once I made the decision I wanted things to move fast, however the pace of events was far past my expectations.  Shaun can make recommendations for reliable and professional experts to guide one through the process of a non-resident sale in Canada with great success.

"We would highly recommend him (and have)!"

Shaun Kimmins is a consummate professional who knows the Vancouver real estate market inside and out.  He is smart, hard-working and an excellent negotiator.  He sold our waterfront condo in Coal Harbour. We would highly recommend him (and have)!

"it was reassuring to have a service-oriented realtor who communicated clearly and regularly and who facilitated such a quick and stress-free sale."

Shaun Kimmins was referred to my wife and me for assistance with the sale of our Coal Harbour condo. Shaun’s extensive experience in the Coal Harbour area was evident from the start and his straightforward approach to pricing and marketing was very effective in achieving a quick sale at a very good price.

As a busy professional and part-time resident of the area, it was reassuring to have a service-oriented realtor who communicated clearly and regularly and who facilitated such a quick and stress-free sale.

We have no hesitation in recommending Shaun to both current or future, resident or non-resident Coal Harbour condo owners.

"Shaun succeeded in selling the properties for my asking price within a short period of time"

I have retained Shaun on two occasions to sell my condominiums.  On both occasions Shaun succeeded in selling the properties for my asking price within a short period of time.  In doing so Shaun was professional and very responsive, always returning my calls quickly and providing me with updates on potential buyers.  As a lawyer practicing real estate law I deal with a lot of realtors; most are good but few are exceptional.  In my experience Shaun is an expert in his field and offers an exceptional level of service to his clients.  I will certainly use Shaun again when the time comes and have no hesitation recommending him to others.

"He under promises and over delivers. He is the first and only realtor I would consider"

I have worked with Shaun Kimmins over the last 5 years with the successful sale of 2 condos, one in Coal Harbour, the other in Yaletown. Shaun is a true professional in every aspect of his work. He provides detailed information on the market, the specifics of the local area and the best strategy for my particular requirements. Both condos sold within a week, at prices I was very happy with. Having worked with other realtors in the past, the key reason I continue to work with Shaun and recommended to several of my friends is his integrity. He under promises and over delivers. He is the first and only realtor I would consider.

"We are pleased to offer our enthusiastic and unequivocal endorsement of Shaun’s work"

Shaun Kimmins recently represented us in the purchase of a condominium in Yaletown. We chose Shaun because we found him to be experienced, professional, well-informed, honest, and an exceptional communicator. He understands and explains the challenging Vancouver market extremely well.

Shaun recognized what we wanted; kept us focused in our search; steered us away from many properties that did not meet his standards; and educated us in the new experience of condominium buying (our real estate experience was all with single-family homes). Market conditions shifted as our search progressed, and Shaun kept us continually informed and educated.

When it was time to negotiate a purchase, Shaun’s analysis of property values was formidable. We trusted and followed his advice throughout, and are completely happy with the deal he negotiated and the home we purchased.

We are pleased to offer our enthusiastic and unequivocal endorsement of Shaun’s work. We will certainly use him when we are buying and selling real estate in the future, and we highly recommend him to anyone seeking excellent representation.

– Janet & Ross (Buyers, Vancouver)

"We selected Shaun because of his no-nonsense assessment of the current market and his upfront nature."

Shaun worked with us to establish realistic expectations from the current market and a strategy to sell our house as quickly as  possible. He gave us a comprehensive breakdown of our area complete with competing listings and historical market trends.  This meant a lot to us as we felt comfortable with the entire process and pricing strategy he was recommending.

Shaun was upfront and helpful throughout the entire process.  We are happy to report that he sold our house within 4 weeks and he made it smooth and hassle free for us.  We would happily work with Shaun again and would recommend him to anyone looking to sell their property.  As non-resident sellers, we worked with Shaun on the sale of 2 condo properties, one of which had been listed by another agent and previously remained unsold. We found that Shaun's detailed knowledge of our specific market and his condo specialization experience served us very well and both properties sold during a very difficult period in the real estate market. Shaun's professionalism, attention to detail and timely communications facilitated both sales without requiring our presence in Vancouver on either occasion. We would recommend Shaun's services to other non-resident sellers without hesitation.
