When we made the difficult decision to sell our family home of over 40 years, I visited a Macdonald Real Estate office in my neighbourhood where I met the ‘floor duty’ agent Peter Vanderkooy. It was easy to gain rapport right off the bat, he listened to our concerns and created a course of action that was easy to understand. The information was easy to understand and breaking it down to bite-size pieces made is so much easier for us. We always felt our interests were first and foremost and all the directions were above board, we never felt left out of the process, even our family dog of many years was not upset. Even now after some time we feel we got a fair price, Peter worked hard throughout which is why I choose Peter to help with my next purchase. All in all I appreciate how Peter stays in touch and keeps me current to Real Estate. We would readily recommend Peter.

Happy to be able to write such appreciative words. Peter was recommended to me by a friend. Coming from overseas posed numerous challenges to all areas of the home buying process, but all went incredibly smoothly under Peter’s stewardship and guidance. His great nature, depth of knowledge and attention to our details ensured a stress-free and highly collaborative experience. His professionalism and patience to guide us through all the steps successfully landed us our ideal home. I couldn’t recommend him and the staff at Macdonald Realty higher and am pleased to provide a reference.

“The best thing I can say about our recent experience of working with Peter as our agent is that we started the process as friends and ended it as even better friends! I asked Peter to list my mother's property in a less than encouraging market. However, not only did we meet our deadlines for sale and moving but exceeded them. Throughout, Peter was the epitome of calm professionalism and I always had complete confidence that we would have a successful outcome. Needless to say, I would unreservedly recommend Peter to any prospective client. Kevin, North Vancouver”

I just want to say that when we decided to sell our home and down-size, Peter Vanderkooy was the epitome of a calm and a realistic person. He contacted people who helped us prepare for the Open House with staging and general cleanup. We had been in our home for 40 plus years and so it was very daunting to take the plunge and put it on the market. There were so many memories of raising our family including many family celebrations which meant so much to us. Knowing our neighbours in a wonderful area we were very reluctant to leave, however, Peter put it all into perspective. He acknowledged what we were leaving but pointed in a very positive way what we would be looking forward to. It was a very emotional time for us but he made the transition so easy!

“Hi Peter, thank you for making our return to Vancouver so seamless and welcoming us home! You went above and beyond the call of duty with the numerous email and text queries while we were still in Halifax, gave us regular and constant updates on the market and always responded quickly and professionally. Once the deadline hit and we were down to making the home purchase happen in just a few days, you made the tours, follow ups, offer back and forth, final deal and inspection process all work so quickly and so well. It was a pleasure to work with you!

Peter is a high-integrity person that cares deeply about delivering a professional, “world-class” experience for his real-estate clients. His extensive professional sales background, strong work-ethic and natural charisma give him the ability to command respect, influence and get everyone involved in a real estate negotiation “on-side”. When considering a realtor to represent your real estate interests, Peter Vanderkooy should be high on your list.

I always remember Macdonald Realty because of you as your approach seemed very solid, professional and upfront and honest. You had answered my questions at the showing with conciseness and not ‘ducking and diving’ which I found a lot of during the house search. Thanks and keep up the great work!

“I am so grateful to Peter for his work as a REALTOR on the sale of my townhouse this past summer. It was a seamless experience! Peter is knowledgable, hard-working and completely ethical. He went beyond the usual standard for realtors in his efforts on my behalf, and was always available to respond to my questions and concerns with good humour . Due to his efforts the sale was concluded without effort or stress on my part. Thank you Peter for such a rewarding experience.”
