Yao Yao

We were operating a franchise store, so aside from the agreement and handover between the buyer and seller, there was also a separate handover process with the franchise company. This made the whole process a bit more complicated and time-consuming. On top of that, the store we were selling was quite small and the sale price wasn’t high. Besides helping us sign the sales agreement, Alvin patiently explained everything and coordinated the differences between both parties throughout the process. Sometimes I became emotional with my words, but Alvin always maintained a professional and positive attitude. Being able to successfully sell the store in the end is inseparable from Alvin’s hard work.

Minhua Xu

First of all, we would like to sincerely thank the Chen Yanshan Team for their genuine service and support. From viewing properties to the final handover, they were dedicated, attentive, and highly efficient throughout the entire process. No matter what real estate questions we had, the Chen Yanshan Team always provided the most professional answers and the highest quality service. They were especially outstanding when it came to scheduling property viewings — incredibly capable and efficient. On one occasion, we were pressed for time and were only available in the afternoon. The Chen Yanshan Team managed to arrange the appointment at noon the same day, and we completed the viewing that very afternoon. Kudos to this amazing team. Wishing the Chen Yanshan Team continued success and an even brighter future ahead.

Helen Liu

The market in Nanaimo is screaming hot at the moment, and Alvin guided us through it very well. He was so pleasant throughout and showed an excellent understanding of the market in the mid-Island area. We were very discouraged to discover how many other buyers were out there competing with us, but Alvin gave us excellent advice as to what he thought a particular place would sell for and what we would likely need to successfully compete with other buyers. Re the place we bought, his advice was right on the mark. Thanks so much, Alvin. We are so glad to have met you.

Larry Barron

Alvin is patient, professional, knowledgeable, and warm-hearted. We went through more than a month of home viewings together. When he arranged in-person showings for us, everything was efficient and well-organized. When we didn’t have time to visit the properties ourselves, he went the extra mile to visit the sites and record videos for us. For real estate matters we didn’t understand, Alvin patiently explained everything in detail. I would recommend Alvin as a real estate agent to every friend who loves the beautiful scenery of Vancouver Island.

Vi Liu

Alvin is very efficient and knowledgeable. He explained everything very clearly making us a stress- free selling. He put a lot of effort to maximize our benefits. Whenever we have questions, he and his team are here for help. Highly recommend Alvin and definitely will use him again in the future.

He is very responsible to his job and clients, he is always the first one who shows up on appointment You can be 100% worry-free when you have Alvin to be your realtor!!!

Lim Yin Ki Kammy

Alvin has been a tremendous help in our search for our new home in Duncan。 He was extremely flexible and made every effort to accommodate our schedules and sometimes our last minute changes. He and his staff organized the showings in ways to make best use of our short stay on the island. Due to our own change of plan, we had to arrange many things in a rush including insurance and bank loans. Without Alvin's guidance and close follow-up we would not have been able to close on the original scheduled date. Thank you Alvin! We will certainly recommend you to our friends and relatives.

Lily Li

He went above and beyond — answering every question, arranging viewings quickly, and always checking in to make sure I felt comfortable and informed.
