Reviews

“Craig Ackerman and Proof Real Estate were instrumental in selling my family home. Their team assisted in clearing out the property and secured three solid offers. The winning bid exceeded our listing price by $113,500. I cannot speak highly enough of Craig and his team: They played a crucial role in ensuring the smooth and successful sale of our property. The professionalism, expertise, and unwavering commitment displayed by Craig Ackerman and his team throughout the entire process were truly commendable. Their strategic approach and meticulous attention to detail undoubtedly played a significant role in the exceptional results we achieved. Without any hesitation, I wholeheartedly endorse Craig Ackerman and Proof Real Estate for their outstanding service in the real estate transaction realm.”

“I knew that this wasn’t the best time to sell with the difficult market and interest rates not favorable, I was skeptical to say the least but as soon as I met Craig and his team I knew I had chosen the right ones to get the job done. When Craig did a walkthrough of my property, he made professional suggestions that he thought would get me the most bang for the buck. After simple improvements by Craig’s team, on final offer day I had 16 to chose from! And my home sold for $451,000 over the asking price! I sincerely enjoyed working with Craig, Charles, Tiana and the entire Proof Real Estate Team.”

“I am absolutely stoked to share my exceptional experience with Craig Ackerman and Proof Real Estate, who recently sold my home for an incredible price beyond my imagination. I heard about Craig from a friend whom I highly trust. When I fisrt met with Craig at my house, it was very clear that his approach is not just to sell a house but to get top dollar out of it. Craig and his team combines expertise, dedication, and a genuine commitment to bring the most out of a house. Craig was thoroughly assessing my house and gave me valuable insights on how to maximize the appeal to potential buyers with some cosmetic improvements. Craig's attention to detail and in-depth knowledge of the local market were truly impressive. It was a big decision for me to move forward with the improvement plan but Craig and his team were always available to answer any questions or address any concerns. NOTE: Craig has a dedicated team he has been working with for years on all of his projects.”

“Craig just represented our group of siblings in the sale of a set of flats in the Richmond district. He was very well prepared, patient with our fractious group, and was very valuable in keeping the sale going when an unforeseen legal snafu (not of his or our making) threatened the sale. Very glad that he was recommended to us and would use him again happily. Like”

“We went with Proof after seeing several other Realtors. Craig and his team were great. They fast, efficient, through and professional. They were able to generate a lot of interest in a short amount of time. They got us 11 offers and most exceeded our expectations. Thank you Craig and your team for all the help and care you took.”
