ANDREW RICE: RE-MAX Ocean Pacific Realty

We just finished up buying our first house, and we are thrilled that Andrew was our realtor. Andrew has a wealth of knowledge about the Comox Valley, seemingly knows everyone, and went so far above and beyond (I mean that, he got his hands dirty helping with the septic inspection! Thankfully so, they found issues that would have been a huge problem for us down the line!) He showed up on weekends and lined up viewings with almost no notice. There were some late nights in there as well to make sure that the transaction happened. Without reservation, we would recommend Andrew to anyone we know! At the end of the day, we found a house we're thrilled with, and can have confidence that we got a fair deal thanks to Andrew's hard work!

After deciding to move from Ontario to Comox Valley, My wife and I were looking for an agent to help us buying our first house. We were so lucky to get connected with Andrew Rice and he started guiding us and providing very useful information about the new area, housing market and all available options for us, even before we make our move. He was always available to support us and his positive energy and warm smile always helped me and my wife to make the big decision more easily and more comfortably. Finally we were able to buy our first home and even after our move to the new place, he stayed in contact with us to make sure everything was going OK and if we needed further help with anything. I honestly cannot find proper words to describe how highly satisfied we are with this amazing gentleman! Many thanks to Andrew and his team!

As first time buyers, the process of buying a home was intimidating at first. We were referred to Andrew and he went above and beyond to guide us through each step of the process, making us feel much more at ease. From the first meeting to our closing day to helping us move a couch, we couldn't have been happier with working with Andrew. He has an in-depth knowledge of the area and is very well connected in the community. He never hesitated to find answers to any questions we had and did a lot of work behind the scenes between showings. In a very hot real estate market, Andrew helped us purchase our first home for under asking and with conditions. We are thrilled with our home and we couldn't have done it without Andrew's expertise. Without any hesitation, we would recommend Andrew as a realtor!

We are so fortunate to have come across Andrew to help us with our purchase up Mt. Washington! Andrew was friendly, flexible, detail-oriented and highly professional. He truly knows the Comox Valley better than anyone I have ever met and put us in touch with local experts in a variety of areas from construction trades to lawyers. Andrew dug in for us and went above and beyond to help our family purchase the place of our dreams. From last minute early morning weekend showings to late night negotiations Andrew was always there for us. The amount of behind the scenes analysis he did was incredible. Highly recommended. Until next time Andrew!

Our family recently decided to take a great leap and relocate from the chilly North to the Comox Valley - an area completely new to us. Andrew was referred to us as a local expert and is he ever! While not new to home ownership, we were new to purchasing in a red hot market in unfamiliar territory. Despite the pace of the market, Andrew's steady and careful approach helped ensure we didn't leap into something that wasn't right for us. Along the way, some unusual situations presented themselves and it was Andrew's extensive personal connections that allowed us to gather good information very quickly to decide how best to proceed. After a few in person reconnaissance visits to the area, we built a solid personal rapport and when the right listing came along, we fully trusted Andrew to help us navigate our home purchase from afar. He was there every step of the way and even now that we own our place, he stays in regular contact, providing great local recommendations and assistance with our relocation. You are in good hands with Andrew! Jen, Paul and family
