The following are testimonials from just some of my sellers and buyers. They have all been kind enough to give me permission to share their correspondence on my website. I am truly blessed and so grateful to have been able to work with such fantastic people. I love my job!
Working with Biba was a true pleasure. She is honest, dependable and incredibly capable. She was always easy to reach and kept us well informed during the process of both selling our townhouse and purchasing our house, and one can definitely rely on her for service after the sale is done. We would gladly recommend her services as a realtor to anyone!

Biba sold our townhouse and helped us find our dream house in 2014. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone considering buying or selling a home!
Biba was patient, diligent and wonderful to work with. She was a great support to us in helping us showase our home in the best possible light. Our efforts coupled with her staging ideas worked really well, because she presented us an offer within 24 hours of our first open house.
When it came to finding our new house, Biba helped us stay level-headed and grounded. She reminded us of the practical goals and the realities of staying within our budget. She showed us a number of homes and helped us look at each one with a critical eye. Biba was a great listener who truly considered all of our "must-haves" and kept us focused in our search for our new property by sorting through and sending us electronic matches and letting us know which open houses to attend. In the end, we ended up in a great location with a house that suited our every need. At both ends, Biba worked really hard to get us the fairest price, which we truly appreciated.
Thank you so much Biba, from the bottom of our hearts!

Dear Biba,
I want to thank you for your hard work and incredible patience during the process of selling my house. You went above and beyond with all your efforts with contacting city hall and clearing up the issues there, and for keeping me sane throughout. I know the things you did for me weren't necessarily a regular part of your job, and I appreciate it all. You fought hard for me and I won't forget that. It was a pleasure to meet you and work with you.

Biba helped me sell my condo and buy a new one in record time. Her advice was invaluable when it came to presenting and staging my condo for sale. I had some very particualr requirements for my new home and Biba took the time to fully understand my needs and found me a condo that fits me perfectly.
More than anything, Biba amazed me when it came time to negotiate and close both deals! Biba got me a great price on my sale and purchase in a very competitive market. As a cherry on the top, Biba negotiated for me to have 3 extra days between moving out and moving into my new place after we had closed the deal!
I am looking forward to working with Biba in the future and I feel confident recommending her to anyone!

I am extremely happy with my recent real estate experience with Biba.
As a seller, it was very important to me to not play any tricks or games that other sellers seemed to be playing at that time. Biba was exactly on the same page with me and we had very open and honest communication throughout, which I really appreciated. The transaction was clean and smooth, and she got me a much better price than I expected.
As a buyer, I had a pretty vague idea of my criteria. Biba patiently and compassionately worked through many possibilities with me and helped me narrow down a couple of areas. She was flexible and understanding along the way as some things were shifting, yet she panaged to keep me focused and she didn't let me get discouraged in the competitive buying market.
I never felt even the slightest pressure from her. In the beginning she said she would help me see as many properties as I needed to, and she definitely backed her words up with her attitude until the very end.
I am now extremely happy with my new home and can't thank Biba enough for being with me through buying it!
I know that I will only use her services the next time I'm selling or buying. Overall, she is a pleasure to be around and she exudes calmness and confidence in any situation. I wouldn't be surprised if you'd want to stay friends with her long after your working relationship is over!

Meeting Biba was the best possible thing that could have happened when I decided to sell my condo. Packing up after 25 years and moving across the country was exciting, but also very very stressful. Biba helped me throughout the process, from staging my condo before showings, to helping with movers and cleaners, and even finding me a realtor in Nova Scotia to purchase my retirement home. Not all realtors are created equal, and this is one I would work with again in a heartbeat.

We worked with Biba to sell our condo in downtown Vancouver and buy our first house in South Surrey. We look back on our experience and can honestly say that there is nothing we would change.
Biba really listened to our needs and understood our criteria very well. Due to our budgetary constraints we lost a few bids on houses we liked. At the time, Biba made sure we didn't go outside of our comfort zone and reassured us that the right house would come along. And it did!
The sale of our condo was a much smoother process than we anticipated. Biba took care of absolutely everything and the sale was completed shortly after our first open house.
What sets Biba apart from other realtors is her genuinely caring and compassionate nature. She would never compromise her personal and professional standards. At the same time, her extensive knowledge of the market and exemplary work ethic guarantee that her clients get the best results possible.
We always recommend Biba to our family and friends!
-Katia and Dragan D.
We are so thankful for Biba and blessed to have worked with her on the sale of our condo and the purchase of our first house.
What we appreciate most about Biba is her "no pressure" attitude, patience and her genuine care for us as her clients. Her knowledge of the market from both sides of the process is invaluable, and her ability to visualize the potential in properties gave us the re-assurance we needed as first time house buyers with a modest budget. She understood our requirements perfectly, and we were never shown properties that didn't fit our criteria or budget. For that reason alone, we trusted her judgement unconditionally, knowing that the properties she took us to see were truly contenders worth our time.
But don't let Biba's genuinely sweet demeanor fool you, she will absolutely go to battle for you when needed! Biba fiercely protected our interests during the sale of our North Burnaby condo to a rather difficult buyer, while negotiating the highest sale price on record in the entire complex. Similarly, during the purchase of our house, she skillfully navigated the inticacies of an estate sale by the public trustee, while successfully avoiding a bidding war between 4 contenders. Needless to say, we felt lucky to have her in our corner on both occasions!
All this is why we always, wholeheartedly recommend Biba to our family, friends and anyone who will listen, because we have full confidence that they will be taken care of, just like we were. If you have ever been disappointed by a buying or selling experience in the past, having Biba as your realtor and ally will definitely change your point of view.
She is one in a million, and she will make you feel like her only client, because it's never "just about the sale" with Biba!
