Gavin Hughes Real Estate Team

It was truly a pleasure doing business with Gavin Hughes. He made himself available to us whenever we wished to see a property and, as first time home buyers, he gave us a great deal of useful advice throughout the process. He also made us feel very comfortable through his friendly and honest manner and we developed a good deal of trust in him. We would (in fact already have) recommend Gavin to any of our friends or family should they wish to purchase or sell a home in the future."

My experience with Gavin and Nova was excellent. My wife and I bought and sold with their support and they were professional, approachable and timely from start to finish. I won't hesitate to contact them again for the next sale/purchase.

Nova and Gavin are top notch. I started just *thinking* about selling my condo and trying to buy a house 4 years ago and Gavin was supportive and non judgemental about my very non-committal looking. When my search became serious in the last year or so, Nova was out there pounding the pavement, driving to all the corners of Vancouver (during COVID no less!), and calling me whenever I emailed. I don't think she ever took a day off! Nova talked me through the offers, the counter offers, the subjects, and was there with a bottle of wine when I finally got the keys! I've recommended them to friends and, while I absolutely never want to move again, if I have to, I sure hope Nova and Gavin are around to do that with me.

"I was a first time homebuyer, and had known my realtor Gavin Hughes as a family friend. I decided to work with Gavin given his friendly attitude and honest intentions. My experience with Gavin was extremely positive at all stages of the home buying process. Gavin worked extremely hard for me in order to meet my specific criteria, he was very detailed and uncompromising in his search for me. Gavin was very helpful during the negotiation process, he found creative ways to pursue delicate negotiations, and made many useful recommendations to aid in the process. Gavin was also very informative in keeping me abreast of the progress of the negotiations. He was very straight forward and gave me timely and accurate information that was needed to guide my decisions. Gavin was also very helpful at post sale time! I did not expect him to continue to give me such great service at this time, but he did. He even made the moving in process a joy by have a considerate "care" package waiting for me upon my arrival in my new home. I would highly recommend Gavin Hughes to anybody in search of a trustworthy, no nonsense realtor. His individual attention and integrity put me at ease the whole way through my home buying process. Thank you Gavin!!"

We've worked with Gavin a few times and have nothing be great things to say. He's experienced and knows his stuff, and he's delightful to work with. He's responsive, helpful and just generally a great person! Buying and selling a home can be very stressful, and he's a really good resource to have by your side, guiding you through each step.

I would highly recommend Gavin and his team for the initial search, the negotiations and closing, and for post-sale service. Last year, we decided to move back to Canada after many years in the States. Gavin came recommended to us by a realtor in Victoria known for his client-focus, smarts, and integrity and whom I had asked to suggest a Vancouver realtor with the same traits; he could not have steered us better. Gavin was incredibly helpful to us months before we had committed to a move, explaining the various areas to consider around the greater Vancouver area, and setting up computer searches for us a few months out so we could get a feel for the Lower Mainland. When we finally arrived in the Fall to look at North Shore houses, we were on a very tight deadline as we had had to do the 14-day quarantine first. Gavin could not have been more responsive, springing to get us in to see homes and helping us analyze their pros and cons with his local knowledge and expertise. We found a home we loved, with some unusual circumstances, and Gavin could not have been any better at driving the negotiations to a swift conclusion, helping us understand issues that might be unfamiliar to those doing a cross-border move, and protecting us from any problems. He was super responsive and timely with everything, despite the very condensed time frame. And Gavin and Nova really shone post-sale. They were always available for any questions we might have in the 4 months before the home closed, and for handling items on our behalf. For instance, we needed internet and a/v set up before we arrived for our post-border-crossing 14-day quarantine and his team made themselves available to meet a slew of technicians to ensure the house was ready for our arrival. Gavin has continued to help with recommendations and the few questions we have had as we settle in our lovely new neighbourhood. Based on our experience, you could not go wrong with Gavin as a realtor.

My experience with Gavin and Nova was fantastic! They are a friendly, professional, and down to earth team, who provide expert advice and assistance in a timely manner. They went above and beyond to make my first home purchase, coming from out of province, a success. The process was positive from start to finish. I felt assured at many instances throughout the unfamiliar aspects, and grateful to be working with such patient, knowledgeable, kind, and trustworthy individuals. Gavin was referred to me by a friend. He was completely on the ball, from the moment I first contacted him. He and Nova created a genuinely warm welcome to BC and are both still helpful and available post-sale. I have already referred them to family. Highly recommend!

We have nothing but positive things to say about Gavin and Nova. We worked with them when selling two of our properties a couple of years apart. As repeat customers, we found them to be super easy to work, very pleasant and professional, and willing to go the extra mile to get the property sold! Both properties sold in the first weekend of listing, including one in the spring of 2019 in a market where many properties sat were not moving at all. We trust Gavin's advice on pricing and strategy. We have already recommended him to all of our friends.
