My wife and I recently moved to Vancouver and worked with Mike to find our new home. He was excellent to work with, and made the buying process easy and stress-free even though we were in another city for much of the process. We would highly recommend him!

Mike made selling my condo a breeze! He was extremely professional, efficient, and responsive. My condo was on the market within days of calling him, and sold after only two weekends of open houses. It was a pleasure working with him

Andrea E.


I used Mike to help with the purchase of a pre-sale condo and the sale of my condo. He was reliable and always quick to reply. Mike also marketed my unit very well and was able to provide valuable advise based on his years of experience. Easy to see why he has been so successful over the years and would not hesitate to recommend him for your purchase or sale of your property.

If you are looking for professional and responsive service in moving your real estate transaction smoothly through the process, Mike Stewart and his team are the ones to call.

When we reached out to Mike we were under tight timelines to find a new House on the West Side of Vancouver. Mike understood our needs and helped us refine our requirements to promptly identify several suitable properties for viewing.

After determining our short list of preferred properties, Mike’s market analysis helped inform our offer to purchase.

On our behalf, Mike effectively led the negotiation to purchase our home and skillfully navigated to meet our lawyer’s requirements to finalize the deal. Within a matter of a few weeks we have the keys to our new home and we are confident we have paid the right price.

Thank you Mike and your team for a job very well done!

Mike was a very responsible, professional and honest realtor. He sold our condo within expected time length and a good price. It was a very wise decision to let Mike be my realtor.

He walked me through the entire transaction, informed and educated me along the way. Mike knows the market and how to price my condo. During the listing of my condo, Mike communicated with me on weekly basis to exchange thoughts and gave suggestions; he also shares prospective buyers’ feedback after each open house. After I got the offer, mike help me negotiate the price and analyze counter offer with all the effort to maximize the benefits for me. I will recommend him to everyone I know. Thanks Mike!

I recommend every real estate buyer or seller to contact Mike Stewart, the best Realtor in Vancouver.

Mike is highly professional and extremely efficient. He sold my condo in Coal Harbour within two weeks from the listing date.

He is a miracle realtor, very thorough and means business, however, very pleasant and fun to deal with.

I can’t thank him enough for a great job he did by selling my property so fast.

Mike met with us 6 months ago when we were thinking of possibly selling our house.

We were really quite undecided at that time but Mike spent time with us and did a very thorough market analysis on our property so we knew where we stood in the market.

When we were finally ready to sell Mike and his team were there, came up with a solid plan that made sense to us and our financial goals. He sold our house in less than a month, just as promised.

If you want someone to just get the job done, start … and finish here.

Thanks Mike!

Kind Regards,

Darrell Gilmour


We really enjoyed working with Mike on our Condo sale, his positive attitude and enthusiasm made the experience a true pleasure.

We are extremely satisfied with the outcome and would absolutely recommend Mike, he gets the job done.

Cheers

As first time buyers we really struggled to narrow down exactly what we were looking for in the challenging Vancouver market. Mike and his team where completely amazing, encouraging and professional during our lengthy search. His website played a huge part in keeping us informed and focused. We have highly recommended him to numerous friends and family in the area and will continue to do so. We look forward to working with him again.

Pete & Jess


Mike and Adam were superstars when it came to supporting our new home search in Vancouver. They worked with us for weeks before our arrival in Vancouver, refining their understanding of our needs, and educating us on the property market in BC. We found our dream home within 3 days of arrival, and it was all thanks to their great teamwork; showing the properties, negotiating the deal, helping us use the tech tools we needed on the road, calming us with coffee at the office, executing the purchase paperwork, and even having a welcome basket ready for us when we finally moved in. Thank you Mike and Adam!

Fatima & Nimet


Mike was completely professional and flexible with open house hours. This was especially helpful with a two year old napping schedule to work around. He has an accurate pulse on market and knew exactly when price adjustments were required in order to move our property. Thanks for everything!

Natasha & Cam L.


As a professional businessman I have bought and sold many properties, and I found Mike to be the best realtor I’ve ever dealt with. He is truly a professional himself and he pays attention to every detail when handling your purchase or sale. He was very quick at understanding my needs and his up to date knowledge of the market place was invaluable to making an informed decision. In addition, his negotiating skills were a great asset in completing my transaction. I would not hesitate to recommend Mike to anyone that is considering buying or selling a property. In my opinion, Mike is the only realtor for the job! Thanks again Mike… keep up the great work!

When we decided to sell out apartment we spoke to a few realtors first to decide which to choose. The thing that made Mike stand out from the rest was that he immediately highlighted the fact that the patio should be emphasized as a strong selling point – suggesting that we should stage it with furniture and barbecue etc. so that potential future buyers could imagine themselves enjoying and making full use of it. I was impressed with this because it was the patio that had attracted us when we purchased the property. All the other realtors we spoke to didn’t mention the patio at all as a selling point, but Mike did strongly. This demonstrated to me that he was capable of seeing the property from a buyers’ perspective.

Having a history of costly special assessments,and with strata minutes showing there would be a very costly roof replacement in the future, our downtown apartment was tricky and challenging to sell and we were worried at times if it ever would. However Mike was always optimistic and confident that it would sell and of course it did with his persistence.

We have bought and sold in many types of markets, and have found Mike Stewart to be exceptional. He recently assisted us in the sale of a property that sold close to asking, in a week, in a soft market. Amazing. He was very professional and available round the clock to answer questions and assist with the sale. His expert knowledge, advice and negotiating skills set him apart.

M & M


Mike is the best of the best, I have sold and bought with Mike four times over the last 5 years and referred him to family and friends. I’m a very picky person and Mike has always listen to what I wanted and continuously found the the right place at the right price with no pressure. Always taking the time to explain the process and making sure that I always felt comfortable along the way!

Thanks again Mike!

Chef Dale Mackay


Mike Stewart did it again! I have used Mike many times over the years and he always focused and professional in everything he does. Mike sold our last apartment while we were overseas and he took care of the whole process, reducing stress, time and worry… and he was able to do all of this all is just 4 days for the price we wanted. For me the choice is always easy, call Mike.

Jarret & Dana K.


Deb and I wanted to thank you and your team for assisting in making our move from Vancouver to Toronto a smooth one.

So once again, thank you and all your team members for assisting Deb and I in achieving our goals and we wish you continued success.

Thanks

Brian and Deb


We have bought and sold multiple properties and our experience with Mike was exceptional.

Mike sold and purchased our homes in less than two weeks. The process was seamless leaving us with a very positive experience.

Mike is efficient, solution minded and above all, an extremely knowledgeable and hard working realtor.

We would without hesitation, refer Mike and his team to anyone and already have!

Kind Regards,

S & B McGregor


In the 10 months it took to find our home, Mike was a constant source of valuable information and enthusiastic support. We looked at numerous properties and with Mike’s guidance, the list was whittled down to the home that was right for our family. His insight into the market helped us tremendously in formulating our offer. Other testimonials speak to Mike’s ability to sell homes – we recommend Mike to those seeking to purchase a home.

B & J Jung


He knows about the market, he is an expert in terms of everything related to buying a house.

You can trust him with the negotiation and the ability of closing a deal. He keeps everything simple. I finally got the place I want.

We contracted with Mike to sell our Condo at 550 Taylor. We found Mike to be knowledgeable, professional and always easily accessible to respond to any queries we might have in a very timely manner. The sale of our property was challenging as we had a difficult tenant who made the arranging of open house’s difficult. Mike handled this situation very professionally and affectively. We never felt pressured to accept an offer and Mike was successful in getting our asking price in a market that had slowed down significantly at the time.

Thank you Mike.

Wayne and Linda


It has been a pleasure working with Mike Stewart, both in the sale of our Yaletown apartment and in the purchase of our new house. He has been a true professional throughout the process: he sold our place very quickly at a great price, and he was appreciative of the time it took us to find a new home for our growing family. He is very knowledgeable about all aspects of the Vancouver real estate market, very professional, punctual, and he has an exceptional work ethic. We would recommend him enthusiastically and without any reservation. And next time we are in the real estate market, we will definitely work with him again.

Ipek and Ozgur


Thank you to Mike and his team for all the help and assistance in the sale of my Yaletown condo. I greatly appreciate all that you have done to make the selling process easier on me. Many thanks!

After meeting a few realtors I decided to hire Mike after 10 min of talking to him, and sure enough my instinct was right. In less than a month my property was listed and sold. Mike is very professional, honest, dependable and easy to reach, day or night.

He is a man of action and not words. I would recommend Mike in a heartbeat. Keep up the good work Mike.

Cheers

I will recommend Mike Stewart as a realtor to anyone without reservation. I have worked with several realtors before, both as buyer and seller, and they pale in comparison to the quality of service that Mike provides.

My husband and I met Mike when I inquired about a property I found on the MLS website. He came across as very knowledgeable and sincere.

When we decided we needed help in negotiating a purchase, I called him and he came to our home promptly and provided us with very valuable advice and helped us weigh the pros and cons of the property. In the end we decided against the property and asked Mike to help us look for another property to buy.

Looking for a condo was a long process, trying to match a property with our budget, investigating the property to make sure there were no defects, and then putting forward an offer. Through all the ups and downs, Mike was with us all the way. He was always there for the viewing, for the inspection, for the negotiation. If he was away, his team – Adam Scalena and Sean Finnigan — provided very efficient back up for him so we felt we were always well taken care of.

Whereas other realtors I have worked with before only had a quick sale as objective, Mike always had our welfare in mind. His knowledge about the real estate market is wide and he was able to give us an honest appraisal of each property’s quality of construction and sale history. These were valuable inputs in our assessment of what to buy.

In the end, we found the property that was best for us. We are very happy with our purchase, thanks to Mike’s guidance. After a month, we heard from Mike again who called just to make sure that we were satisfied with our home. Thank you, Mike, Adam and Sean, for all your help.

Chris & Nori


We hired Mike Stewart to help us sell our property at 1067 Marinaside in Yaletown. Throughout the process he was helpful, professional, and easy to get hold of but most importantly he got our suite sold. I strongly recommend Mike Stewart as Realtor

Aly J


I could go on and on about what a pleasure it was to work with Mike Stewart – how efficient, hardworking and professional he is – but the bottom line is this:

Less than two weeks after listing my property, he brought multiple offers, and I accepted one… for full price. Outstanding.

Erin Nichol


Mike helped me buy my first home. He understood my needs and was very respectful of my time. He only showed me options that worked for my lifestyle and found me the perfect place. It has been a year and a half since I bought my place and he still checks in regularly. Mike is efficient, always available and enthusiastic
I look forward to working with him to buy my next home!

TF


Mike’s professional advice and assistance throughout the sales process was instrumental to me obtaining multiple offers for my property, including a sale for the full asking price within a week of it being listed. Mike was always available day or night to deal with any issues or questions, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking to buy or sell real estate in Vancouver.

Joe


I recently listed my property with Mike Stewart in Vancouver’s Cambie Village. After listing with two other Realtors unsuccessfully, thank goodness I found Mike. He said he could sell my property and he did!

Thanks so much,

Janine


Mike was a huge asset in the purchase of our new home. He was honest and unbiased in his feedback and provided invaluable insight into the purchasing process. Mike was extremely accessible and supportive throughout our home search and was a reliable resource. We would highly recommend Mike to anyone considering the sale or purchase of a property in the Lower Mainland and intend to recommend him to any friends or family intending entering the real estate market.

Sean & Stacee


It’s been a couple of months in our new place and Steve and I wanted to express our sincere thanks for your assistance in the process. I’m so glad that you kept following up with me since our first meeting a couple years ago at an open house. Your persistence allowed you to be the only Realtor we called when we finally were ready to buy. Your expertise of buildings and developers in Vancouver gave us insight into things we hadn’t considered before. Thanks also for taking the time to explain everything clearly to us and giving us the information to make an informed choice. We appreciated that you were very thorough and always available to us.

Thank you again!

Camille & Steve


Mike Stewart sold my condo recently located at 618 Abbott Street and I couldn’t be happier. He gave great input through the sales process, and clear directions on needed updates. The property was marketed extremely well, with open houses every weekend. I really enjoyed working with Mike and would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a quality agent.

Sincerely

Esther Wong


Mike Stewart recently helped me sell my West End Downtown Vancouver condo located at 1050 Smithe, the Sterling. He did a great analysis of the Downtown Vancouver condo market and helped me determine a good and fair list price and gave great honest advice that helped get my suite sold. I was very happy with the whole process and I would strongly recommend Mike to anyone looking to sell or buy a condo in Downtown Vancouver.

To Whom It May Concern:

In so far as real estate transactions occur, the most important component of a successful sale is the quality of the realtor. I recently had the opportunity to work with Mike Stewart of Century 21 In Town Realty on the sale of our False Creek condominium and was impressed with his professionalism from the moment we first spoke. Mike is incredibly knowledgeable about his business and therefore able to provide a comprehensive overview of not only the market, but also of the transaction in hand. His courteous nature, excellent time-management skills, strong negotiating tactics and thorough follow-through are keys to his success. Mike attention to detail and incredible marketing of our property enabled us to complete the sale in an incredible 2 weeks!

It is with great pleasure that I highly recommend Mike Stewart as the go-to Real Estate Agent for the Yaletown, Coal Harbour and Downtown areas of Vancouver.

Sincerely,

Andrea Wagner


We engaged Mike based on a recommendation from a very good friend of mine. It was initially a selfish transaction as we just wanted some market colour from an expert. We were debating buying a property on leasehold land, and were curious about the long term value of this sort of purchase. Mike took the time to answer our questions, and attempted to get a read on our situation to ensure we had all the necessary information to hand.

Mike made us feel comfortable straight away and we engaged him to help us in our search. He always made the necessary time for us, whether it was for showings, or simply answering a myriad of questions from two inexperienced buyers. Despite a couple of setbacks (a common occurrence in Vancouver market I should imagine) we were 100% confident that Mike wouldn’t match us to a building/place that didn’t suit our long term needs simply to ‘get a sale’.

We are very happy with where we ended up and how the final process took place. Mike was honest and professional throughout, always working to the pace we dictated. I would happily recommend Mike to anyone looking in Vancouver.

Charlie & Becky C.


I would highly recommend Mike as your next real estate agent. We were first time home buyers with a lot of trepidation about the buying process. Mike was very patient with us figuring out what we wanted and his expertise with the buildings in Downtown Vancouver helped steer us towards finding a place we absolutely loved for our needs and budget. Mike always found time to quickly return phone calls and emails as we poured through the listings found with his online tools. Not only is Mike excellent with the personal interaction but he is also highly technical and helped us filter and explore from our computers which empowered us, and we were able to get tons of information from his website and videos that we could follow up with in person.

Brian and Kasia


The easiest part of purchasing my first home was working with Mike. As a first time home buyer I had a lot of questions and really wanted someone who could walk me through the whole process. In a competitive market it’s important to have someone who knows the lay of the land. Mike always returned my emails or phone calls quickly and when time can be of the essence in snapping up your dream place, his timeliness was greatly appreciated. His depth of knowledge, patience and responsiveness really made the entire buying process go smoothly and with as little stress possible. Despite being a busy guy you will always feel like his only client!

Aside from how great Mike is, all the resources he offers online are awesome. I personally love to research on my own, both to gain knowledge but also not to get taken for a ride. With his many blog posts and videos you can easily learn about the process, what to expect and generally what’s happening in the market so you can make the most informed decision possible.

Mike’s attention didn’t end at the time of sale – he called to make sure I was settling in and to attend to any lingering issues or answer additional questions.

I would have NO hesitation in working with Mike again and highly recommend him. Choosing him will be the best and easiest decision you’ll make in your real estate buying process!

Cassie


As a first-time home buyer, I was a little overwhelmed with the steps which would be necessary in the purchase of my West End dream home. I found Mike Stewart Realtor through his First Home Buyer Video tutorials which gave me the information I needed to start my purchase.

In only 4 short weeks after meeting Mike Stewart and Adam Scalena, I am happy to say that I am currently sitting in my West End dream home. With the help of Mike and Adam, I was able to find,

purchase and close my perfect home effortlessly.

I owe this to the hard work and wisdom they were able to provide to me throughout the purchase of my new home. Their quick response with answering questions and providing comments on prospective purchases made the task of looking for a new home very simple. I would gladly recommend Mike and Adam as a West End Realtor to any first-time home buyers looking for an effortless purchase of their future dream home!

Thanks again Mike and Adam for all your hard work!

Sincerely,

Cody Brown


My wife and I were very new to the Vancouver area and we were pretty lost trying to find a home to start a new life. Being a very young couple we were pretty overwhelmed with the new concepts and technicalities of housing and what makes a house a good or bad choice. Confused and struggling, we contacted a number of realtors and to be frank we had some pretty poor experiences. Eventually we found Mike Stewart and honestly we were very wary of him at first. BUT WHAT A SURPRISE! Mike was friendly, down to Earth and professional! With his expertise and wealthy body of knowledge he answered all of our questions and took his time helping us finding a home that fit our needs. He was always available to help us out and very flexible in working out a time for us. Not only did we learn everything we needed to make a good decision but he made home finding enjoyable while fitting around our schedule. We HIGHLY recommend Mike Stewart! Thank you Mike so much for helping us find our home!!!

Thanks again Mike!

Laurence and Anqi


Mike Stewart is an excellent realtor. In my mind there are a few important differences between Mike, and the rest of the Realtors I have met. First, despite his busy schedule he always seems to have enough time to help you out with some small detail. Two, Mike has an excellent phone call turn around time, if you don’t get him the first time, you will usually get a call back within an hour. Third, when you work with Mike Stewart at Century 21, you work with Mike, he doesn’t pass you off to junior realtors. If you get his name then you get his experience. I think Mike is an excellent choice for first time buyers like me, with all the resources he brings to the table. Having said that, I know I will continue to use him down the road for second and third purchases because of his professionalism, his knowledge, and the aforementioned reasons.

Cheers, Kevin


We first met Mike at an open house that we attended as we began our search for a home in Yaletown that met the needs of our growing family. Cognizant of both our budget and stringent requirements, he arranged a number of appointments and took us to numerous open houses before we finally settled on a unit that seemed perfect for us. To make a long story short, we purchased a unit that was 400 square feet larger than our previous residence for less money than we obtained from the sale of our condo. This was in large part due to Mike’s tenacity in negotiating favourable prices, especially when it came to our purchase.

You will not find a REALTOR ® who will work as hard as Mike. He will be at your disposal 24 hours a day and will work tirelessly to sell your home if it means working 7 days a week, doing daily open houses, or running all over the city late at night to sign and deliver contracts.

Our experience with Mike worked out to be extremely beneficial, and we would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home!
