Calgary Real Estate Testimonials

Here is what our great Clients are saying:

"Manny worked as our Calgary real estate agent this year and I can say with complete confidence that we would not have ended up with the beautiful home we now have without Manny’s hard work and dedication. It took us 3 months to find our perfect home and in that time Manny worked tirelessly to help ensure that we never settled, never felt rushed, and never paid more than we were comfortable paying. We appreciated the time Manny spent in not only showing us over 20 different homes but also previewing dozens of homes on our behalf. We felt so confident that Manny understood our requirements that he could easily deem whether a property was worthy of us viewing it. Having an agent spend so much time getting to know us and our needs and also working for us in our absence helped us tremendously. He saved us hours of time and frustration. I remember once apologizing to Manny that we had not yet put an offer in on a house and he responded in the most sincere manner telling us that he never wanted us to put an offer on a house, he wanted us to find our perfect home. We truly trust Manny, feel comfortable with him, and relied upon his knowledge and research. I appreciated that he would willingly point out attributes of a property that improved its’ value as well as speaking honestly about concerns he may have with it. Manny was always well versed and well prepared for our showings. Usually he had seen the house before us and was seeing it again with us for a second time. Manny familiarized himself with the communities we were interested in and could counsel us on schools, parks, access, etc. We really felt like we had an ace up our sleeve having Manny on our team. 

His guidance and expertise comforted us through the process of writing and negotiating an offer. He was always calm, confident, and honest with us. We were thrilled when our offer was so well received and we bought our new home. Above all we appreciated that Manny was flexible, available, and constantly staying in touch with us. We never felt alone in the buying process. We always felt supported and that our best interests were being carefully protected. I would wholeheartedly recommend Manny to anyone interested in finding their perfect home. I know that he will work with dedication to ensure his client’s satisfaction."

"Listing and Selling our house with Manny changed the way we felt about the Real Estate Industry. It was such a pleasure to work with an honest, hard working, professional agent who truly had our best interests in mind. We felt as if we had created a highly motivated team who was working hard towards the same goal. Manny provided us with many resources that enhanced our ability to sell our home for our asking price quickly. As soon as we decided to list our home an action plan was put into place. Within a matter of days we were staged, photographed, and advertised. We had over ten showings on our first official day on the market and received a full asking price offer that same day. Manny has a deep understanding of the trends in the market and easily helped us price our property realistically. 

What I appreciated the most about working with Manny was his ability to explain the Calgary Real Estate industry in a thoughtful, respectful, and informative way. He always took the time to listen to and validate our concerns and then helped us make decisions by giving us honest insight. Not only did we sell our house but we learned a lot about Real Estate in the process. 

I would not hesitate to fully recommend Manny’s services to my closest friends and family. Thank you!"

 "Advancing years and increasing health issues obliged my parents to move into a lodge from their home of 55 years.  The decision to sell the property was a difficult one, especially since my father had built much of the house with his own hands.  I knew it was critically important to find a capable realtor who could relate well with my elderly parents, as they dealt with a challenging situation.  I called upon Manny Aldea.  From their first meeting, Manny inspired trust and confidence.  His warm, open honesty and natural empathy immediately assured all of us that he understood my parents’ needs and would serve them with respect.  Throughout the whole undertaking, Manny kept mum and dad fully informed, while at the same time clarifying and simplifying what can be a bewildering process.  My parents did get a good price for their home and in a timely fashion; however, much more importantly, they always felt fully in control, with their dignity completely respected.  I would heartily recommend Manny Aldea to anyone considering a real estate transaction. "

"Manny was fabulous!  We hadn’t planned on moving until we happened upon our dream home while visiting friends in Lake Chaparral. It had just been listed that morning and when we called Manny late that afternoon he dropped everything and promptly arranged a viewing for us.  We learned that there was another very interested party and thanks to Manny’s savvy negotiating skills we were able to successfully purchase the house later that evening.
 
Now that we had secured our dream home, we had the daunting task of selling our house.  Manny was able to quickly get our house listed on the market.  We were impressed with his marketing materials and the well composed photographs showcasing the main selling features of our house.  In just four short days, our house sold and we were able to breathe a sigh of relief.
 
It was a pleasure working with Manny.  We thoroughly appreciated his knowledge, expertise, honesty, attention to detail and also enjoyed his sense of humor which helped us through what we considered to be a stressful process. 

We have recommended him to many friends and family and will continue to do so."

"Manny is an exceptional realtor he was employed to sell my existing home and assist in finding a new home. I could not have asked any more from a Realtor in both areas. He was professional, friendly, trustworthy and honest. 

In the selling of my existing home he helped out with many “little things” such as checking on my pets, turning air conditioning or lights off and on and generally any small things I may have forgotten. I could count on him. Manny kept me well informed on both buying and selling aspects. 

I looked forward to viewing homes with him; we had many interesting conversations while on route to various neighbourhoods. Manny was patient and always went the “extra” mile. He stayed within the “specifics” I had set out until I found the perfect home. Selling and purchasing a home is stressful, Manny kept it fun and interesting. I had dealt with previous realtors but had never found the experience to be as pleasant or positive. 

I would not hesitate to recommend Manny to others interested in purchasing or selling a home and would definitely call him should need a realtor in future. "

Thank you Manny!
