“Candice and Charles were amazing! Not only did they sell our family home, they were the only realtors we interviewed that asked us what our future looked like (after the loss of a parent.) They also helped us purchase a home for ourselves in another town outside the lower mainland. Very professional, knowledgeable, and completely versed in all things real estate...and genuinely lovely people. It would be a shame not to retain their services”
Thank you so much Cathy for the kind comments. It was an absolute pleasure working with you two and for us its not so much about the real estate transaction but its more about the people we work with who are involved with the transaction and what matters to them and the experience they get from it. Thank you for your trust in us in both the sell of your Mom's home and the purchase of your current home. Enjoy your new adventure!

“Charles Bilash was our realtor. We had to sell our condo fast as we had to suddenly leave the country. We had expected rough waters ahead since the market was slowing down and our condo was in its original condition, but with Charles at the helm it was smooth sailing all the way. His knowledge of the market is astounding. He is extremely professional yet very approachable. When we decided to return to Vancouver, we encountered myriad problems trying to find accomodations. Having no-one else to rely on, we turned to Charles. He managed to secure hotel rooms for us, and he did it IN PERSON! We also needed to find a rental unit. After trying for ten days straight, Charles found us someone who would be able to facilitate the process. Talk about post-purchase care. Charles went above and beyond for us. He's an amazing human being. We would recommend Charles to anyone who needs a topnotch realtor who will go the extra mile and truly cares about his clients.”
Thank you so much Rie to you and your Dad! All these years and your Dad always remembered me was a privilege just on that note...Selling was the easy part of this transaction but the real work was to help you after the home sold and how to get you back from Japan safely with a plan for your family to get comfortable in Vancouver again. Was truly my pleasure :)

“I have had the pleasure of working with Charles. He is professional , , super patient, kind heart , generous and always puts his client's best interest first. He help me to buy my house and he did an absolutely amazing job.He was Tremendously helpful as he guided me through every step of the process. I highly recommend this gentleman.”
Thank you Milan, buying the home was a bit of a challenge... however all of my expertise and care was done after the sale to help you through the process. I was glad to be part of it and even more happy that together we got excellent results at the end!!

“Candice and Charles were very personable and pleasant to deal with. There professionalism and expertise was top notch indeed. Our property was not only marketed locally, but nationally and internationally with a most exquisitely produced short film. Even though the market at the time was slow, our property sold within a two (2) week window due to their excellent skills and read of the product sales in that given window in time. I would highly recommend their real estate services and will be sure to engage their services in the future.”
Bruce thank you so much for your great comments! We were so happy to work with you and thank you for your trust in us. Everything lined up perfectly just the way we needed it to roll out!
Candice & Charles
Thank you Ramses for your trust in me! I was honoured to have the opportunity to work with you on the marketing and the sell of your property & our hunt for a new place to call home. Being able to achieve exactly what we needed on that end to bring you closer to Vancouver where you work was super exciting for me. I am happy about your end goal of a shorter commute to work and the new place we found that you now call home I think is just perfect for you. I think I knew weeks before you did ;) I am glad you picked that one to call home. Off to new adventures, enjoy!
Candice
“Four years ago, Candice was referred to us by a friend when we were looking to move from Ontario to the Vancouver area. We were so impressed by her that we enlisted her services again when we moved this year. Candice navigated us through the transition professionally and worked hard to keep potential buyers interested. She counselled us on staging our home and with her many years of experience was able to find an area that we are really enjoying. She is a hard worker and I would recommend her to everyone.”
Thanks Kat, I really appreciate the comments. It really has been an absolute pleasure working with both of you over the years and finding just the right area and product each time. I hope you both enjoy your new journey in your new area.

“Fantastic team. I mostly dealt with Candice, and I can say with full confidence I could not have had a better realtor! She unequivocally had my best interests at heart. She was patient and listened to what I was looking for in a townhouse, but also made creative suggestions to help expand the possibilities. Oh, and she sold my place as well! How did that go you wonder? Well, one open house and it sold over asking, so pretty good I'd say. LoL! Both Charles and Candice gave me advice on what to focus on before my sale, and how to stage it to it's best potential. It was a fair bit of work, but it paid off better than expected. I shouldn't leave out how professional and ethical Candice and Charles are as well. What can I say, they're classy but down to earth. I could go on and on but suffice it to say, I will be urging all of my family and friends to use them.”
Thank you Bonnie for such kind words and your continued trust in the whole process from list to sell to purchase. It was so fun working with you with lots of laughs along the way that's for sure and complete success all round in the end I would say! We appreciate your confidence in referring us in the future and all the amazing things you have said.

“As a Notary Public I have worked with Candice for the past 15 years on dozens of conveyances representing both Sellers and Buyers. On every deal that we have done together she has demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, work ethic, trustworthiness, and knowledge about all aspects of the real estate industry. Candice is not afraid of doing the hard work and will always go above and beyond for her clients providing her clients with the highest level of customer service and attention. Candice will do whatever it takes to get the job done and the deals closed. She is the nicest person, but can be a tough negotiator when necessary, never backing down in tough situations. As a Notary Public often times we encounter challenges in getting deals to close successfully due to unforeseen circumstances and last minute "surprises" when this happens I can always count on Candice to be a reliable partner in the process, always ready and willing to help to ensure that all her deals successfully close, and even after a deal closes she remains available to help her clients in any situation that may arise. I wholeheartedly recommend Candice for all your Real estate needs She is one in a million, a true professional Wanda Wong Wilson Notary Public”
What a wonderful testimonial Wanda. Thank you for everything you have said, it is very much appreciated. I always strive to always offer the best in every given situation to my clients and to make myself available through the whole process even after the sale to assure everything runs as smooth as possible. I have really enjoyed working with you over the years and have to say its one of the reasons I love working with you. It is the same like minded thinking we both have when it comes to clients and putting them first is why I do and will continue to work with you. I look forward to many more years of working together.

“Charles and Candice are phenomenal real estate professionals! They have been supportive with our real estate investments for the past 15 years and go above and beyond to ensure our needs are looked after. They are great at building a client experience by determining our needs and proactively meeting them. Their savvy negotiation skills ensure our best interests are always met. I would only recommend Charles and Candice for our future real estate needs. Thank you Charles and Candice for taking care of us!!”
Thanks Anita, always been an adventure and always exciting to make these investments in Vancouver. We have come a long way from when we first started :)
Thanks again for your continued support

“I worked with Charles when buying my first place a few years ago, and then again earlier this year. Both times he made the process very smooth and painless. Charles is very knowledgeable and professional, and was always available to answer any questions I had. I can't recommend him highly enough!”
Thanks Kristen, your patience and attention to detail made working with you like a seasoned pro!! Very easy to work with and look forward to building your empire :)
Charles

Thanks for your loyalty and trust in me Jamie
Charles
“Caring, professional and understanding. We interviewed several realtors and were very impressed with the presentation they brought to our first meeting. We needed to sell our mothers property who just passed away so it was a delicate situation. They were very understanding and compassionate yet honest about what we could expect in the market, taking the emotion out of it for us. We also used them to purchase our new home but before that we changed our mind on areas and type of properties several times. They were professional and never got annoyed with us. We would highly recommend them to anyone to use.”
Thank you for your kind words. We truly appreciated working and were fully committed to the hurdles to make things happen for your family!
Charles & Candice
“Candice will help you out all through out the process from A-Z. She is very professional and very honest in providing us the necessary information that we needed when we purchased our place.”
Thank you Robert! I enjoyed working with you and Roan each step of the way & had fun doing it! I've enjoyed working with your family over the years with their transactions as well and I look forward to helping you both again in the future.
Candice
“Candice was a rockstar! This was my first property purchase and I had lots of questions which Candice had no problem answering. She was so helpful and made for a very smooth transaction and I am so happy with my new home! Thank you so much for making this happen!!”
Brooke thank you so much. It was so fun working with you through all the first steps of being a first time home buyer and making sure that no stone was unturned as they say. It was very important to me as it always is that everything would go as smoothly as possible for you especially being your first purchase. I absolutely love your place and hope you have lots of enjoyment in your new home.
Candice
“i have worked with Charles for almost a decade and have been fortunate to buy and sell multiple properties he is always honest and incredibly professional he will always keep the clients interest in mind first of all and diligent to find the best deal and best outcome for everyone. i am very highly recommending Charles to anyone and i hope i can work with him for an other ten years”
Well thank you sir!:) Definitely I am entertained and love working with you and your style and sense of humor about everything we do! Always great doing business with you...Look forward to the next one soon :)
Charles
“This is our second time buying a property with Charles's help. It was a trickier purchase because we wanted to put in condition to sell our old place, especially with the current market. Charles was very patient (as always) and provided valuable advise and strategies on contract and pricing negotiation (Charles is a hustler). After 6 months of relatively stress free housing hunting. We sold our old condo for a great price and purchased a new unit in a coveted area. We would certainly recommend Charles to any of our friend that would be interested in buying or selling.”
Really fantastic to hear your experience this time around being a more complex one with the motivating factor being an adorable little Toddler Boss Girl! ( Girl Power ) Both of you were fantastic to work with especially working with your hectic schedules and your little girls nap times :) A real treat to see the impact this change will make for your growing family and lifestyle.
Thank you again.
Charles
“Candice was very attentive and found tons of listings that met our wants and needs. Every day we got an email blast of the latest properties on the market which was great. She was valuable to have on hand during the negotiation process and made the whole process much easier that it would have been otherwise. It's almost a shame we found a home as looking at properties was fun!”
It was an absolute pleasure working with you both from beginning to end and all the steps in between! Congratulations on your first home and I am so happy we found the one that met the most checkboxes in an area you love!
“Charles has always provided excellent, professional service. I have worked with Charles and several real estate transactions and has played an important role in managing my real estate portfolio.”
Thanks Stan! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Joyce to find you the perfect home. The process was so much fun along the way definitely lots of laughs and fun stories. Without a doubt I think the home we found is just perfect for you two and I wish you lots of happiness in your new community.
Candice
