GuelphHomes.com “We quickly saw the value in listing with Steve Dawkins and recommend his services to all our friends. The value-adds that made for a great experience included: • An initial assessment of how to prepare our home to drive maximum value. • Staging our home in a highly professional manner • A knock-out photo session that created a stunning virtual tour • Marketing our home to attract local and Toronto-based buyers • Professional dealings with prospective buyers • Strategic negotiating advice and execution Our overall experience with Steve both selling and buying was great. He was always there for us, his follow up, advice and execution second to none. He turned what can normally be a trying time into an enjoyable experience. I do not write testimonials often. He earned every dollar of his commission, and I wouldn’t hesitate to have him on my side again or work with my close friends.” — Daryl & Judy W., Guelph

Steve Dawkins Sales Representative 2014

“As a first time buyer, my experience with Steve Dawkins was easy and pleasurable. Knowing absolutely nothing about buying or setting up a home, Steve proved to be a valuable asset in not only buying the house, but also setting up utilities and services such as painting and cleaning. He was able to clearly walk me through each stage of buying the house from start to finish. I am very glad to have gone through this process with Steve.” — Matt M., Guelph
