" Still looking for a realtor? Don’t look any further and contact Leilani. She is hands down the best realtor that I have ever met and hired. Having a 7month old baby, it seemed impossible for us to painlessly sell our condo and buy a detached house in the Lower Mainland. Well, we did it within a month – all thanks to Leilani! We interviewed several realtors before we decided to hire Leilani, and here is why we chose her: She impressed us with her ability to actively listen and respect our priorities, her strong marketing and negotiation skills, and last but not least, her engaging personality and passion for real estate. Long story short, she did not disappoint us. She voluntarily organized and staged our cluttered condo, managing to sell our place within a couple of weeks with multiple offers in a buyer’s market. In addition, she helped us pick a great place while pointing out important factors that we hadn’t thought about as parents; she offered to personally go to some open houses and shared her thoughts. She continuously negotiated on our behalf until she got the best offer. Leilani is a realtor who personally inspired me. She made me believe that nothing is impossible with her great work ethic and passion. Just give her a call if you are thinking of buying or selling. She won’t disappoint you! "

" What an amazing experience working with Leilani! I was looking to sell my condo in New Westminster and from the moment I got in touch with her, I knew I found the perfect agent! Her communication, professionalism, and attention to detail was incredible, as well as her dedication to doing whatever she could to getting my place sold. In only two weeks, her work and marketing paid off as the unit sold for over asking! I couldn't be more thrilled and would highly recommend Leilani to anyone who is look for a realtor. "

" Leilani goes above and beyond for her clients. This is my third time using Leilani to purchase a home and I would not hesitate to use her again. My husband and I started looking at homes when the market started to pick up. Unfortunately, all the homes we liked all had accepted offers already. Leilani reassured us that she would do everything in her power to find us a place and was confident of that. Because of this we were confident in her. She made sure that we saw any new property right away and after a couple of weeks we found a place! After reading through the documents Leilani had some concerns and we decided to not move forward. She was upfront and gave us all the information and let us decide whether to move forward. She never pressured us to buy and always had our best interest at heart. We did eventually find a place which we got a great price on! She fought for us till the end. Even when we finally got our keys and were disappointed with the cleanliness of the unit, Leilani took it upon herself to hire her own cleaners to ensure that it was cleaned properly. Leilani is very knowledgeable about the market. She is also hardworking, caring and always has your back. I would highly suggest her to anyone that wants a realtor that is not just your salesperson but also your friend, advisor and trusted confidant. "

- Jenny Fung

" My experience with purchasing my first place was extremely positive with Leilani as my realtor. Leilani was extremely responsive, organized, hardworking, and professional. She was patient with me as my requirements changed, and she helped provide valuable insights into the properties I was considering. I felt that she was invested in helping me find the right place for me throughout the process. I would highly recommend Leilani for buying or selling a home! "

- Brendan Gribbons

" As a real estate photographer, I've worked with many agents over the years. There are some agents that just want a listing but don't do anything to help the sale. I've shot a couple of listings for Leilani recently, and I am very impressed with her knowledge and how she treats her clients. She knows the market, and she is always at the shoot, does her own staging, making sure the home is photo ready, which as a photographer is very much appreciated. She even sold one of her recent listings within the first week of listing it. Leilani is a genuine person, who truly has her clients best interests in mind. She is my first choice for a realtor. "

- Sally Thompson

" Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness I would like to recommend Leilani Fong. She helped us to find a place in this market, for a fair price, without competing, in the city we wanted, with a very limited budget, in less than a week. Investigated and answered every single question we had (first time buyers!) And gave us all the support we needed. I'd recommend her 110% "

- Sebastian --

" As first time buyers navigating through an extremely challenging market, we are so glad we made the decision to work with Leilani. She worked diligently for us and gave us the advice we needed to find and secure a home we absolutely love. What makes Leilani standout? She is well organized, always on top of things, and extremely responsive. We were able to rely on and trust her knowledge of the various Tri-Cities neighbourhoods, and she didn't hesitate to give honest feedback about various properties we viewed. We felt assured that she genuinely had our best interests at heart. She supported us through the ups and downs of the home search process, and helped us to put together an attractive offer that ultimately enabled us to get the home we wanted. We highly recommend her. "

- Colin Knight

" We had the pleasure of working with Leilani on the recent sale of our condo. We needed to sell quickly and within only one week we had an accepted offer. She went above and beyond for us, fast tracked photography, provided staging and was in constant communication with us the entire time. Her exceptional marketing skills had the desired result of many scheduled viewings and multiple offers over our asking price. We highly recommend her. Thank you Leilani! "

- Carly Coupe

" Leilani is very professional, responsive, and she understood exactly what is my requirement. She helped me through the whole process, from buying the apartment to providing the best contacts in terms of pre-approval, insurance, and even renting the apartment. Although I don't live in BC, she managed to make it easy for me to accomplish all of that without even travelling to BC. I highly recommend her, if you are looking for a great realtor that you can put your trust in, please contact Leilani. I will consider her for any future investment in BC. "

- Eyad Jallad

" I've known Leilani for years and always knew my partner and I would use her when we were ready to buy. Leilani has made our first home buying experience not only positive but enlightening! We learned so much about the market and all the work that goes into searching for that perfect home. She found us listings that were within our means and meet our wish list. Leilani was extremely accommodating and got us the answers to our questions quickly so that we were able to make the best and most informed decisions. In the end, Leilani helped us find the perfect starter home where we will have room to grow. We are so grateful to Leilani for making us and our search for our first home together a priority and cannot wait to move into our new place! "

- Elizabeth Smith

" Leilani is brilliant! As first-time home buyers in Canada, Leilani has been a truly invaluable partner to our family. We felt from the start that we had someone in our corner, who had an instinctive understanding of what we wanted, and who would go out of her way to find the perfect home for us. She was always upfront and honest, and very patient with us as we navigated the market. She is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. We're so grateful we found her and have no hestitation in recommending her services. "

- T Wilson

" Leilani was exceptional in helping us buy a house. We were relocating from a different province and didn't understand regional differences, she recommended the most suitable neighborhoods for us, and she answered the million questions we had. She was extremely patient going through with multiple offer situations on a number of properties and guided us throughout the process with the best outcome for us. She is someone we could trust completely and knew she had our best interest in mind. She did not pressure us at all, in fact she took away the pressure associated with buying a house in an extremely hot market. We ended up purchasing a fixer upper we love and she even helped us connect with contractors! Leilani is a one stop shop for everything real estate! I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a genuine person who cares about your outcome just as much as you do! Thank you Leilani! "

- Safia Khan

" Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value This was my first sale with Leilani as a realtor. However, she had previously helped my husband sell his townhome and buy an apartment. Leilani’s approach to selling is practiced - and it shows. Staging for showings, social media presence and the ability to connect with other top performing realtors across the Lower Mainland. Leilani was able to facilitate 25 showings across 4 days, which netted us 7 incredible viable offers for our apartment sale. As such, our apartment was sold within 5 days of being on the market; Leilani helped to negotiate a rapid close as well (within a month)! If you are looking for a realtor who is passionate about her work, determined to get the most for you, and will guide you through every step of the selling (or buying) process, you cannot go wrong with Leilani. "

- April Ombac

" Leilani was my realtor when I bought my condo in 2008, and then walked me through the process of selling it 12 years later. Leilani has excellent marketing skills! Her contacts for photography and cleaning made my apartment look stunning, and her social media promotion brought over 80 people to the open house. She had perfect timing when she suggested I list my place- I got 14 offers and it sold in less than a week. Leilani was so supportive as we went through the process, and her quick sales are a testament to her experience, confidence and knowledge. She really is the best at what she does! "

- Sherri Rogers

" Leilani is an excellent buyer's agent, who exceeded our expectations. She helped us buy a townhouse in Coquitlam in late 2021, and we're really happy with it. As first-time homebuyers in the perpetual seller's market of Greater Vancouver, we consider ourselves lucky to have found Leilani to represent us. She is competent, professional, and tenacious. She understands the market, and is an excellent communicator. Leilani was happy to explain the process and the role of the buyer's agent when we started out. We did not know exactly what we wanted/needed, and Leilani patiently helped us figure that out. She listened to our expectations, including price range, and respected them throughout the process. Leilani was honest with us throughout, telling us what to expect and strategising accordingly. When we were ready and had financing arranged, Leilani set up viewings and arranged things around our schedules. Leilani proposed and executed some creative tactics, and within a week we had an accepted offer on a property we really liked. We trusted Leilani and followed her advice, and are glad we did. Leilani worked closely with our mortgage broker to complete the financing arrangements, and remained engaged with us and our notary until closing and possession. On possession, Leilani went beyond the scope of her duties to arrange inspections and additional cleaning where the seller's agent had failed. Throughout the entire process, she was always available via phone or WhatsApp. We felt that she was truly our agent and acted in our best interest. In short, we highly recommend Leilani. "

- Michelle and Mark Volkmann

" Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value We can’t speak high enough about Leilani, and recommend her for any home purchase or sale. From start to finish she was professional, hardworking, and committed. Leilani helped us sell our Coquitlam home in under one week, and achieved 14 offers. We were extremely pleased with her level of real estate expertise and her passion for what she does. She streamlined the process for us, and we were very grateful and happy we chose her. Thank you very much Leilani, we would love to work with you again in the future. "

- Kari Rodgers

" Through our home buying experience Leilani has become more of a family friend and less our realtor. She was incredibly patient with us, understood us and our needs very quickly, and helped us find great partners at multiple steps. She was always available, and very tech-savvy with the tooling in her business. We got our home because of her top notch relationship building skills with everyone involved in the transaction. She brought energy to every visit, blurred the lines around this being a professional association and made us confident we were in caring hands. "

- Swagata Upreti

" Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value "Leilani Fong is just great! She made our buying and selling process easy and smooth! Her professionalism, expertise and excellent interpersonal skills make her a wonderful representative for anyone attempting to purchase or sell a home. She is very organized and patient, walking us through the process and quick to answer any questions we had. She was on top of things and kept us informed every step of the way. It was a real pleasure working with her through the contract agreement, inspection, and final closing details. Thank you so much for all your guidance, help and recommendations; very much appreciated!!!" "

" We were selling our home, and looking for a realtor. A friend of mine recommended Leilani, as she helped him in buying his first home, and selling it a few years later. When I first met Leilani, she came in and was very clear and professional. She gave us a lot of advice to help prepare the home for the sale and what her strategy was to help maximize our chances for a quick sale at the price we were hoping for. All of her suggestions paid off, and we sold our place within a week of listing, and at 25,000 over our asking price! The entire process was very smooth, and Leilani kept us in the loop of everything. Great communication back and forth during the whole thing. I can't recommend Leilani enough. If you're buying or selling a property, you can count on Leilani to help you get the best price! "

- Jon Wiedemann

" Leilani helped my husband and I purchase our first home and we were so happy with the outcome! Leilani met with us prior to our search, got all the necessary information to start helping us search for the perfect place. She attended open houses with us, gave us invaluable advice about placing offers, negotiating offers, reading all the documents, etc. We put a lot of trust in her as first time buyers and it definitely paid off! Leilani was always available to help us with our [many] questions and we are so grateful for all her help! I would highly recommend Leilani to anyone, particularly first-time buyers, as we had a wonderful experience. Thank you Leilani! "

- Kelsey Grubb

" My boyfriend and I were referred to Leilani by our mortgage broker to help us buy our first home. After speaking with several Realtors, we knew that Leilani would be the best fit for us, due to her extensive knowledge and experience, honesty, and client-focused attitude. Leilani made the home-buying process as smooth and stress-free as it can possibly get! She supported us at every step along the way, viewing listings with us, answering our questions, offering practical advice, and providing valuable information on market conditions. She consistently went above and beyond to accommodate our evolving needs, and worked tirelessly to negotiate a good deal on our behalf. We are very happy with our purchase, and this was all thanks to Leilani’s efforts. If you are looking for a professional, proactive Realtor who will work hard for you and take your interests to heart, look no further than Leilani. It’s been a genuine pleasure working with Leilani, and we would happily recommend her services to anyone looking to buy or sell in Greater Vancouver! "

- Helen Bowman

" We recently had the pleasure of working with Leilani to sell our Vancouver condo. She made the entire process as seamless and easy for us as possible. Not living in the city ourselves, she took care of every little detail we could not tend to. We were very impressed with her knowledge of the market and commitment from the get go. Her attention to detail, marketing and staging of our property helped us complete our sale within 5 days of listing, with multiple offers, above listing! For comparison, other units had sat on the market for months. We would not hesitate to work with Leailani again or recommend her to anyone! "

- MNP

" We were not the easiest clients. It took us over a year and many viewings in different neighbourhoods to find our forever home. During this time Leilani also guided us through the sale of our condo. Leilani was incredibly patient and assisted in styling our condo for sale. I would call on Leilani again, she is now more than our realtor but a family friend. Leilani took the time to understand the needs of our family and supported us in all aspects of buying and selling our home. "

- Jamie Beliveau

" We had the pleasure of working with Leilani recently, during the second year of Covid. Despite only knowing her for a very short time, Leilani listened to our needs and got in touch as soon as a presale opportunity, which practically met our every need, came up. Within a week, we were shown the model, given the documents, and guided professionally throughout the whole process. Leilani was with us every step of the way, giving us tips where needed. It honestly felt like I was purchasing real estate through a trusted friend, not a realtor. Do not hesitate to contact Leilani if you are looking for a consummate professional as well as a committed human being. "

- Jessica Lam

" It was a pleasure to work with Leilani. I needed to sell my condo in a reasonably short time and she made it happen so smoothly. She is very knowledgeable, highly responsive, sincere and honest. I highly recommend her to anyone that's looking to buy/sell a home. Thanks, Leilani! "

- Avi Andi

" Leilani helped us to purchase an investment condo. It was a new experience for us but she patiently walked us through the process. She provided good advice on choosing the right area that suited our purchasing goals. She was very quick to respond to communication. Solid recommendations for the rest of our purchasing team. I would confidently refer her to friends and family. "

- Jenna Perry

" Just SOLD by the incredible Leilani Fong! From the market assessment to setting the ideal listing price to beautifully staging, Leilani went above and beyond. The outcome of her work was multiple offers and a sale above asking price within 7 days. Leilani exceeded our expectations every step of the way! 5 star approach, 5 star results. "

- Mark Breslaw

" Leilani is everything I needed from a realtor, and more! She helped me buy a condo in 2016, and did a great job of finding places to view that were in my budget and desired neighborhoods. Halfway through, I realized what I really prioritized in a new place, and Leilani adjusted the viewing schedule to match my new priorities well. Later, when I needed to find a tenant for the condo, she helped with that search as well. It was especially appreciated because I was unable to be in the same city around that time, and couldn't host viewings for the whole time I was looking. The tenant we eventually found and signed with was an amazing tenant, which was no surprise because Leilani did all the background checking and legwork perfectly. More recently, I decided to sell the condo. Leilani walked me through the process, including advising me on the proper steps for dealing with the tenant at the time. We communicated regularly, but she never put undue pressure on me to lower my desired price, or to accept unreasonable offers. She even helped me find a handyman to take care of issues with my unit as part of the sale conditions. Start to finish, Leilani has been an excellent realtor who I can truly trust. I would recommend her to any of my friends who are looking, and will ask for her when I'm back in the real estate market. Thank you, Leilani! "

- Akshay Balakrishnan

" We recently sold two downtown condos through Leilani. The service, communication and attention Leilani provided was exceptional. She kept us informed, provided excellent guidance through her knowledge of the market and the location, and made the process seamless. We sold both condo as we had hoped and were given professional, knowledgeable and friendly service from beginning to end...We will no doubt be using Leilani again in the future. "
