Josh Sebastian & Monika Sormova

"As first time buyers, we relied on Helen's extensive knowledge, expertise & patience.  She treated us like family & made buying our first home a pleasurable experience.  Always available, always professional & a wonderful sense of humour too!  We will not hesitate in recommending her to anyone looking for a great agent."

Allyson O'Shea & Jason Brennan

"Helen was great.  It was our first house and we didn't know a lot about the process or the million little things you need to plan for on the purchase.  Helen seemed to read our minds and was there with the answer sometimes even before we realized what the question was.  She makes it easy to trust her."

Todd & Cherri Brown

"In 1990, Helen was recommended to us as a real estate agent by a good friend whose judgement we trusted.  Our experience was that Helen really seemed to understand the market, she listened, she worked independently to seek out new options, and we never felt under pressure to make a decision.  As a result of that first experience & after living out of the Metro market for 14 years, on our return in 2004 it was Helen we sought out to help us find our current home.  We have & will continue to recommend Helen to friends and colleagues; confident that they will be as pleased with her professionalism & sensitivity as we have been."

Bryan & Gil Maycock

"We had spent a considerable length of time looking to buy a condo when we met Helen at an Open House.  She was motivated enough to talk to us about our needs and we found that she was very knowledgable.  She really wanted to help us.  Helen found us a condo and sold our property within 24 hours of listing.  She is a wonderfuld person and we would recommend here to everyone."

Audrey & Bert Staples

"We're very thankful to Helen for helping us find & purchase our first home.  She listened carefully to our needs, wants, likes & dislikes and found the perfect home for us!  Her extensive knowledge of the home buying process was very helpful and certainly minimized any fears we had."

Jen & Brent

"For this, our first time as sellers, we were initially intimidated.  After meeting Helen, our minds were quickly put at ease.  Her thorough research, attention to detail and knowledge of the Real Estate Market in Halifax/Dartmouth is unsurpassed.  Couple this with her genuine interest in her client's needs, comforting demeanor and her wonderful sense of humour and you have a recipe for success.  Her no-nonsense, no-pressure approach to client support was a perfect match for us and we quickly felt equipped as confident and informed sellers.  At every point in the process of selling our home, from preparation of our property for sale, pricing, marketing, negotiation of offers, to house-closing, Helen was there with answers to all our questions and provided welcome and sound advise that was always delivered with a reminder that it was our decision and no matter what, she would do everything to best meet our needs and secure the best deal possible.  The level of respect she has for, not only her clients, but all those involved in the deal, is evident, admirable and refreshing.  We sold our house within four days of listing at a price higher than we ever thought we would get.  Needless to say, we are thrilled with the results and we happily pursue our next real estate adventure with Helen anytime!"

"I Sell Homes...It All Begins With Trust!"

Thanks for reading my testimonials - I am very proud to offer them. Helen

"Over the past 30 years, I have bought & sold several properties in Dartmouth & consequently have worked with several Real Estate Agents.  Helen Anstey is at the top of my list.  She has a wealth of knowledge that comes from experience and dedication.  Her goal is to do the best for her clients and always with integrity.  Most recently, in the early months of 2008, I was selling my house to move out of province and I found that one of the most reassuring aspects of Helen's work is that she would get back to me almost immediately after there had been a showing on my house.  If the showing agent did not contact her, she would contact them.  Thus, the feedback that she gave me along the way allowed me to judge where I stood at any point in time and to make changes that might improve my chances of selling.  In the cold and snowy weather, my house was sold.  Thank you, Helen."

Pam Love

"We were referred to Helen by a good friend.  As first time buyers, Helen provided us with experienced professionalism tailored to our needs right from the start.  She made us feel comfortable and we apprecidated that she worked to our schedule.  We felt that her depth of knowledge of the market helped us make a good purchase decision, one that we are happy with.  As our agent, she helped to keep things going smoothly right up to our close date and beyond.  We would certainly recommend her to our friends."
