I can't say enough good about this brilliant, skilled, easy to work with, powerhouse of a woman! This was our first time buying a home and Carlee came recommended to me from a colleague. We simply couldn't have asked for a better experience. From her keen eye, while we looked at homes, to her straightforward honesty while reviewing our options and sharing her insights, to her efficiency and organization with managing all of the negotiations and paperwork, this woman will bring your home buying adventure to the next level. As DIY'ers, we often like to find our own "team" of people and do our own research first. After many failed attempts at consolidating a team of home inspectors, lawyers, mortgage specialists, etc, we finally started following the mantra "Just go with who Carlee recommended!" She endorses fantastic people with similar work ethic and we were so happy with everyone she referred us to along the way. After closing, we had some issues which she promptly dealt with. This woman is dedicated and passionate about her career and that is exactly why she excels in it.
TL;DR -- Do yourself a HUGE favour with your next home purchase -- choose Carlee! We will every time, for the rest of our lives. ~ Jessica Callin
My husband and I have actually had two experiences with Jahelka Real Estate Group. Our first encounter was with Charles Bentall, who was helping our son and his wife find a home in the Nanaimo area. He worked with them to procure a home in Ladysmith. We met Charles when our kids wanted us to come and see the home they were interested in. We were impressed with his manner and after our kids completed their deal, we contacted him to ask if his company would be interested in the sale of our condo in Nanaimo. Charles arranged for us to meet Devin Jahelka who organized the sale of our property. The sale was done in a very efficient and professional manner. I definitely would recommend this company to anyone looking for a realtor to buy or sell property in the Nanaimo area. ~ Doreen Friesen
My husband and I began looking long-distance for our dream home on the Island and I happened to begin talking to Devin. I felt comfortable right away and made plans to meet with him. My husband and I soon found what we were looking for in a home. Devin was wonderful, he made the process so smooth and easy. We would use him again anytime for a home purchase or sale and have already recommended him to friends and family. ~ Sherry Law
I have worked with the Jahelka Real Estate Group for multiple transactions now and am beyond pleased with all experiences! They know how to get the job done!! They are very knowledgeable and are on top of things right from the beginning. They have no problem answering any and all questions and in a very timely fashion ... and trust me, I ask a lot of questions :) If you're looking for a solid realtor for your next real estate requirement, I would strongly recommend the Jahelka Real Estate Group!! ~ Michael Chiorando
The Jahelka Group was fantastic! I felt supported throughout the whole process. Buying a house is one of the biggest decisions I've made to date and Carlee made sure all my needs were met. She was knowledgeable, professional, and patient. I highly recommend Carlee and her team! ~ Daniella
We had the best experience with Julien Prevost as our realtor when we moved from Montreal to buy a house in Nanaimo. He was 100% engaging in explaining all aspects and elements of the transaction, and what to expect from beginning to end. He was also very professional in helping us to intelligently negotiate the details of the offer of purchase and had ideas that we would never have thought of otherwise. Julien showed us all the great little family-run restaurants in central Nanaimo to eat at that we would never have found which was a great help as we were arriving from out of town. We had to return to Montreal and were not able to be at the house for the building inspection so Julien was there on our behalf and kept us informed every step of the way. Julien is a good negotiator, extremely competent, and thoughtful in all aspects of the buying and selling process. He will always be our realtor in the Nanaimo area from now on. ~ Rob Ross
My husband and I have bought and sold six houses over the last 30 years, all in different communities throughout BC. Carlee came highly recommended by the selling realtor of our last house. We were not disappointed. Over our 2 month journey in the hot Nanaimo real estate market she helped us remain calm and focused. Carlee was extremely professional and always available. ~ Tracey
Carlee was very professional in every way. I was impressed with her market knowledge. She knew all the listings and details about each without having to stop and look anything up. She kept us well informed all the way through the purchase and continued with follow-up after we moved in to ensure everything was right.~ Scott Hunter
We had a great experience working with Julien to buy our new house/studio in Nanaimo. We were looking for a place that we could rebuild to our taste with a central location with an easy access for my clients. We were moving from a slower market to this market which is moving so quickly and we needed an agent who would look after our interests. We found what we were looking for and we were able to obtain the property, thank you to Julien and the entire team of Jahelka Group. We have had a great experience working with you. ~ Joel P
It was a pleasure working with an agent who conducted every aspect of our dealings professionally. Responses to questions were prompt and detailed. Getting depreciation reports when available allowed me to narrow the list of properties and to go in as a more informed buyer. ~ Kerry V
We set an unrealistic goal for Carlee to achieve. She met our goals and surpassed our expectations in every way possible. She was extremely professional, but yet very personable. I was very skeptical at first with using a realtor, but after my experience with Carlee, I would never sell a house without one. I highly recommend Carlee and her team. ~ Jeremy
Devin is very organized and has excellent communication skills, and he gave us peace of mind with his competency as we navigated a complex real estate purchase from 3 provinces away. We highly recommend the Jahelka Group; they are professional, friendly, and effective. ~ Kyle Friesen
