WHAT MICHAEL'S CLIENTS ARE SAYING:

"After my father passed away & my mother moved to an assisted living condo, we (my brother's 2 sisters & myself) needed to sell the home we all grew up in. We chose Michael Cowling of RE/MAX in Richmond BC based on his track record of selling Richmond homes. As all 4 of us live outside of the area, Michael put together a conference call and gave us his opinion of value & explained his marketing plan. We signed with Michael at his recommended price and had an acceptable offer to us within 30 days. Throughout the entire process, Michael communicated with all 4 of us, keeping us up to date. with regards to showings etc. His professional manner along with his ability to orchestrate a timely sale make him a great choice as a Richmond Realtor " Lew M.

"Michael Cowling is a top notch realtor. He sold our place in a week and over the asking price! He was super easy and professional to work with. He's a total rock star and get'er done kind of a guy. A real cowboy in the industry if you ask me. I very highly recommend him! " Laurel B.

"Having bought and sold three times with Michael, I can assure you that his market knowledge will lead to a higher than expected sale price when you are selling and a lower than expected purchase price when buying. He makes a complicated process simple & stress free. " Harold - Richmond, B.C

"Best realtor ever! Michael and his team are top-notch professionals. I was really comfortable working with them, and the whole time we could tell they cared that we got what we really wanted, at the price we really wanted too! The end result? We sold our place in 6 days way over the asking price! But the best part was following this when they really took the time out to help us find where we would be moving next, and worked magic to get us in way under the list price! We recommended them to our friends and will continue to do so...Really amazing service!!!" Kyle P.
