Looking to sell your property, buy a new home, or just need some expert real estate advice?
I have been in residential real estate sales since 2009 and consider myself a Sunshine Coast neighborhood expert! I recently received the Royal LePage Directors Platinum Award, which places me in the top 5% of Realtors. This award means so much to me, and I'm grateful to all my clients for trusting me with their real estate needs. I genuinely care about my clients and listen carefully to their needs, desires, dreams, and future plans. I strive to exceed expectations, going the extra mile to provide the personal service my clients deserve.
When I'm not working, I like to relax, tend to my garden, and enjoy spending time at the barn with my horse! It truly is the best therapy for all of life's little challenges. I firmly believe the Sunshine Coast is Vancouver's "Best Kept Secret," and I feel grateful and blessed to live and work here.
Ratings & Reviews
My wife and I interviewed three Sunshine Coast Realtors, and also asked them for an evaluation of our home.
Louise Vella was our choice. The reasons :
1) We thought her evaluation was the most accurate.
2) We liked her approach and she understood our needs.
3) We knew we could work with her and she could work with us.
The house sold at very close to the asking price and in a short space of time.
We have no hesitation in recommending the real estate services of Louise Vella.
Louise worked with us to sell our home fast! We wanted to have a larger property with a bigger house that had a fixer upper on it. Louise gave us several options and we found the perfect home.
We needed to list our house and have it sell quickly as the house we chose was a court ordered sale and needed a fast closing. Louise was bang on with her comparative market analysis on our house as it sold for almost the exact price she suggested. Louise set up many showings to find the us the perfect Buyers.
We had no experience purchasing a court ordered sale, but she walked us through all the paperwork and red tape, and attended court in Vancouver as our representative. Louise helped us secure the purchase of the home.We would highly recommend Louise, she is hardworking and puts 100% into her work.
Louise is the best Realtor I have ever had.
She is honest and thorough.
She was also considerate enough to pick me up at the ferry every weekend, so that I did not need to pay for bringing my car over. I came to Gibsons quite a few weekends and she kept me busy with well paced and appropriately priced viewings.
I saw many homes before I decided on the house that I fell in love with. However, Louise continued to show me alternate listings on another visit to ensure that I had done enough comparison shopping, before I decided.
I never felt rushed or pressured. On the contrary, sometimes over coffee or lunch and a bit of sightseeing, I felt rather spoiled.
The paperwork and the closing on the home was easy and I still feel blessed to have found this home.Louise works very hard and I would definitely recommend her.
Louise provided excellent support for my brother and I during his search for a home on the Sunshine Coast. She took the time to understand what we were looking for and what his specific needs for a home were. She provided helpful insights to the different areas of the coast and was very knowledgeable about the different units we considered. Working with Louise, my brother was successful in finding a townhouse that was a great fit for him (and his dog). Beyond just helping with his home purchase, Louise went out of her way to provide follow-up after the sale by giving my brother connections and advice with the different services needed when settling in to a new home and a new town; it was a great help. Thank you Louise!
Thank you again for all your help. Sully (and Roxy) are very happy in their new place.
Take care,
Sean Ennis
