My first introduction to Adrian Hazzi and the team at Vantage West began when I stumbled across his…read moreYouTube tutorials on how to find ideal properties to fix / flip back in 2009. At that point it was just just name recognition and it was not until years later when we decided to move to Kelowna that we reached out to his team for their services. Admittedly, I came into things with a negative bias towards real estate agents, having dealt with some realtors that didn't serve much more than role of tour guide/ key holder/ open house attendant. Not the case here. The team at Vantage consistently delivered valuable insights and their professional advice on how to make a good investment In the market gave us confidence that we were making a well-informed decision. I'd recommend calling them first if you're looking to get a handle on the Local real estate market trends and their insights to make a good investment.

I have recently been a Vantage West Realty client. My agent is Darcy Fiander. I am completely…read morehappy with the service I received from Darcy. He was (and is) extremely professional and always focussed on finding me exactly what I was looking for. Even if it meant a long road of discovery of what I REALLY wanted. Darcy was very patient and supportive all the way along. He continuously "checked in" to make sure we were on the right track. And, Darcy slogged through all the detail of our offer even it meant long hours and late nights. In short, Darcy was there there to help us and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new home.

To start, there's been a new building manager hired since the previous reviewer uploaded their…read morethoughts. He's really good and all of my experiences with him have been positive. He's understanding and while not overly approachable he's very reasonable, fair and effective at what he does. As for the building itself, the lobby is dated but kept absolutely spotless. There are issues here, but this was one of the more inexpensive buildings in town when I was house-hunting. You gotta be realistic; you can't expect the Chateau Mormont at a Best Western Plus rate (or whatever, I don't stay in hotels). We've had some pretty big issues with the plumbing but they were all dealt with quite fast by the building manager. The apartments themselves are what you'd expect for the (inflated, Kelowna market) price. Our unit had horrible tenants before who apparently did a lot of damage but you wouldn't know it by looking at it. One of the best parts about this building is the emphasis on both security and quiet. When we were being interviewed the building manager took us on a tour of the building (of course) and showed off all the security features that are installed. Despite the location I've never felt unsafe here. As for the quiet factor, that was heavily stressed when we were being interviewed and for the most part it's been what we've experienced. There's a rather stompy neighbour upstairs from us but the day after we issued a complaint about it the building manager had dealt with it. All in all, living here has been a positive. The units are basic, but good and well-kept. I'm looking forward to staying here for the next several years.

It was only for 3 months until we found a place closer to work. After living in other place 6 months, we realized that we were in very unenviable company, so we begged managers Finch from Benvoulin O. Manor to return to. We were lucky. The last available apartment was just cleaned and available. The managers were serious and fair to everyone. The garage is a little low, so you can't move furniture into the elevator from it, but you have to park on a very busy street. The family before us lived in that apartment for 4 years, after which they moved to their own house. After The Finches, came new managers who were different but also hardworking and caring. We lived in that apartment for about 5 years and moved to our new apartment. The rent is a bit lower than in other places in overpriced Kelowna, but it should actually be a benchmark for today's economic situation. Whenever we pass by that building, we always say: bye our paradise !

stone sisters disappointment despite previously read reviews. we bought a a home listed by them and…read morethe communication and service was shocking. we bought from out of province, and our realtor who has been consistant amazing for 2 years, received minimal response during the process, and the listing agent took off for closing and possession without letting our realtor know or even arranging keys, its as if she forgot she had a closing! she failed to communicate certain important details with their client resulting in unwanted junk left behind specifically requested to be removed. thankfully our realtor worked her butt off to keep things moving and as trouble free as possible but i know it was above and beyond, her having to make up for the listing agents lack. after possession we had a run in with a family member of the seller who (gave to remove unwanted items) who confirmed they also had issues and were unhappy, the realtor even no-showed a couple of their viewings prior to us. when concern was expressed to one of the owners of stone sisters, it was left unacknowledged. we are really disappointed in the lack of care and wouldn't recommend.
