October 2008 “ Without Michael I would be lost ”
“ In a difficult time of my life I was faced with a $130,000.00 Special Assessment on my condo. Not knowing what to do I called Michael for his advice. He offered me several options and assurred me he would be around for whatever I decided. After discussing those options with my family I decided to list my home with Michael. Within 4 weeks my home was sold for a good price and he negotiated that the assessment was looked after by the purchaser. Michael helped me find a more suitable home for a much lower price in the same neighbourhood. Everytime I was unsure I was doing the right thing Michael was there for me. He even made all the arrangements with the lawyers and movers for me. I don’t know what I would have done if it was not for Michael and certainly would recommend him to anyone who was buying or selling a home”……………… Sala M.

In June 2007, we had initially attempted to sell our townhome on our own. After several open houses and over a hundred people through, we weren't getting the quality or quantity of offers were expecting in a timely fashion. With the completion date of our new home purchase just 3 months away, we decided to list with a realtor to speed up the process. We had researched several 'discount brokers' and were on the verge of listing with one, when Michael contacted us, in the neighbourhood dealing with a unit he had recently sold. We were convinced by Michael's track record as the real estate agent with the largest number of sales in our townhome complex, his conviction that he could get us the selling price we needed, and his policy of performance-based contractual agreement.
With a detailed gameplan, Michael was able to get us quality offers and the selling price we were looking for in a shorter time than we expected. Even taking into account selling commission, with a selling price very close to a healthy list price, we were still further ahead than if we had listed with a discount broker, at a lower recommended list price. At the end of the day our 'net proceeds' exceeded our expectations by about $10,000. With the sale of our townhome behind us, we able to look forward to forward to moving into our new home!
We would recommend Michael to anyone wanting to sell their home in a timely manner for a better-than-average price.
gordon,
In July 2001, my spouse and I decided that we had to expeditiously sell our condominium for a number of reasons. There was a time frame involved and we were hoping to sell our condo within 3 months. In Richmond, the market seemed saturated with condominiums and we felt we had little hope of selling for a reasonable price within such a short time.
I found Mr. Ragosin simply by an advertisement which I passed on the way to work everyday. In this case my impulse paid off. I inquired via email and he responded promptly the same evening. The next evening, he came to meet with my spouse and me. He had a market evaluation prepared already, showed it to us, and within a few days, our condo was listed for sale.
I was simply amazed at the network of colleagues Mr. Ragosin works with. We received an offer within one week after only three showings, and other offers came and went, which I found frustrating. Mr. Ragosin, however, remained calm and positive, this was a characteristic which I found extremely reliable and helpful.
We considered renting in the event we could not sell in time. Mr. Ragosin, again positive, assured us that he could act as Property Manager as well. Simply put, he was there for us in every possible way.
I had to go out of town, and during my absence, we received an offer, and Mr. Ragosin diligently worked to complete the offer as if I were in town. He went out of his way to communicate with me long distance, provided me documents to sign, and ensured that the offer which we accepted proceeded smoothly. His reliability is incredible.
I have recommended Mr. Ragosin to several friends. I highly recommend him as he is timely, prompt and readily available to answer his clients' inquiries. His confidentiality, resourcefulness and performance are, in my opinion, outstanding and completely reliable.
PS. We sold within 3 weeks, $3000.00 within our asking price.

I'd previously gone through three realtors before I was referred to Michael Ragosin. I found others hard to reach, never returning messages, never attending any of the showings, or to busy to answer questions. Michael Ragosin, however, returned every phone call within a short period of time. Personally attended every showing of my home, and gave me the personal attention I felt I deserved.

I am truly impressed with Mr. Ragosin's marketing abilities. He listed our home and within 7 days we received 5 offers and sold for $22,000 over the asking price.
I would recommend anyone who is thinking of selling to employ Michael as their listing agent.

Our townhome unit was in direct competition with three neighboring units also for sale in our complex and our sold first. Mike's personal approach was the key reason for the sale of our home at a time when real estate sales had slowed considerably in the Lower Mainland.

Chris and I want to thank you for selling our home. I can't believe that we had a firm offer with no contingencies only 1 week after the home went on MLS. Just eighteen days after we first met you, I have a check from my lawyers. We are happy to recommend your services to our friends and neighbours and hope you share this letter with perspective clients.
When you first met us, you tactfully told us what needed to be done to make our house ready for sale. You helped us pick a new paint colour and even went with us to look at a house painted in the same colour. Your list of experts or everything from window cleaning to carpet repairs made getting the little things done easier. I realize that sometimes it is difficult to tell a seller that the price he wants is too high or the colour he just painted is not attractive, You did so with tact and honesty that was greatly appreciated.
