"Educational &
Impressive Experience...."
We were very impressed with our experience purchasing
our vacation home. It was interesting and educational for us to be on
the other side of the fence in the home buying experience, as you know new
home sales is our business in Red Deer. The attention to detail and helping us
with the little things was very appreciated. We love our new home away
from home!!

"A very personable, likeable, and easy to work with
person...."
In one afternoon
with Bob I knew from his experiences of living in Canmore that I had
made the right decision in choosing Canmore for our second home. He represents
what is a very good town with good people as its citizens. Bob was a very
easy person to work with. I found him very personable, and likeable.
He gives good advise and knows the Canmore market well and effectively
communicated with us. Bob handled our purchase more then
satisfactory. I especially liked his follow up and keeping in touch with
us after we purchased our new condo. I would definitely go out of my way
to introduce Bob personally to anyone wishing to purchase real estate in
Canmore. - John & Lorraine

"A warm & welcoming ambassador to the
community...." Bob's easy going manner and
interest in finding us the home we wanted make it easy to communicate with
him. We did not really have any problems but questions and requests were
handled promptly and professionally. Bob listened to our needs, wants and
budget and respected them. Bob really made us feel a part of the community
even before we moved there. Bob was recommended to us by friends, and we
have also recommended him to friends and will continue to do so in the
future. - Dave & Lorna Johnson,

"Patience
and Dedication..."
In the
spring of 2001, my wife and I decided that we wanted to buy a condo in
Canmore. A search of the Internet revealed several realtors with Web
sites. Bob Aishford was the first to respond to us, and we were suitably
impressed with his professional demeanour, to choose him as our agent.
Over the next 3 months, we traveled to Canmore several times in
order to view condos that Bob had organized for us to visit. Each of these
trips, were time well-spent. He was punctual and efficient, as we visited
a total of about 30 listings. Bob’s friendly way and easygoing manner put
us at ease, and we began to build trust and confidence in his ability to find
the right condo for us. By asking us questions, gauging our attitude
towards each condo, and using his keen intuition to read what our tastes and
preferences were, Bob was able to narrow the search down to some interesting
choices for us. It was important to have the time to view a good variety
of condos, so that we could decide what was available and know what we were
really looking for. Bob was patient with us while we made up our minds,
and eventually we found the condo that we really wanted, for the right price.
Three years later, we are
completely satisfied with our beautiful condo in the Benchlands, and we have Bob
Aishford to thank for helping us find it. Bob is a long-time resident of
the
Bow
Valley
and knows the community
well. He knew how to make us feel welcome and provided valuable
information about Canmore that was relevant to us. I would recommend Bob
to my friends and family, as he is good at what he does and provides
personalized service.

"Honest and Professional..."
Geri
and I are nearing our 1st anniversary as owners of our dream home in Canmore. We
express our profound gratitude for the time you took (and it was considerable)
to help us find the home which fit our budget in the “Peaks of Grassi”. We are
still pinching each other over the wonderful view of the Bow Valley we have
(from every room). The home is quality built and the neighbours are quiet-and
that’s certainly a bonus.
Both
Geri and I felt so comfortable with you and thought at times that we were taking
up more of your time than we deserved. You really clinched our trust and
confidence when you said “its not a race – we’ll find you the home that suits
you when the time is right”. And you came through.
If
anyone in the future asks us about real estate in Canmore, I won’t hesitate one
moment recommending you as their Realtor. I’m confident, based on my experience
with you, they will be dealing with an honest, professional Realtor, who
genuinely cares about his client and loves the community he serves. Thanks again
Bob for all your help!

"Our
neighbour and friend..."
First,
let me say that our testimonial will probably be a little biased as you were not
just our real estate agent, you were also our neighbour and friend. Thus, we
probably had more contact with you than if you had just been our agent.
Nevertheless, we were very comfortable working with you as you were
knowledgeable about the product, our house, after all who built it? You had the
patience of “Job” listening to us and our reluctance to have open houses. The
whole process was well laid out for us and we would not hesitate to use you
again or recommend you to others. What stands out is the price we got for our
house.

"A
relaxed, happy atmosphere..."
I was
comfortable working with you. I thought I had no problems, all issues were
handled professionally. You always cleared up any situation in a logical manner.
You explained the real estate process. My experience with you was a very
relaxed, happy atmosphere. It was a pleasant experience. I would recommend you
to my friends and relatives.

You
were informative and never pushy. Bob handled all problems promptly and
professionally. You helped by sending us photos of the condo we purchased to
help us furnish it and remember the rooms better. You communicated effectively
and timely and explained the real estate process. We have already recommended
you to friends and relatives and will again. Our experience that stands out is
that you didn’t say too much when we were looking at each place. We didn’t feel
pressured to like it or not. You were impartial, but also pointed out important
things. Was it fun? Yes. You were friendly and warm.
—Cathy
and Dave Harbinson, Edmonton, Alberta
"Prompt
and professional..."
Absolutely, we were comfortable working with you.
Bob handled problems promptly and professionally and totally listened to our
wishes and special needs. In all cases you communicated effectively and timely
and explained the real estate process in good detail. We would certainly
recommend you to friends and relatives. The thing that stands out about our
experience with you is your understanding our goals and making them a priority
for us to achieve them. Our overall experience was delight. Thank you.
