Ms. Berna Yazgan guided us through house tours while my husband and I were still in Istanbul, perfectly aligning with our expectations and preferences for our new home. With her expertise, we found an exceptional 1-bedroom apartment in Yaletown's high-rise, surpassing all our hopes. Her support throughout the entire process was invaluable. We couldn't be more grateful.

We were extremely pleased with Berna Yazgan's service. She quickly understood our requirements and showed us properties that met our needs, effectively saving us a significant amount of time. Throughout the entire process, Berna provided unwavering support and guidance. We are delighted with our new home and know that we could not have found it without her assistance.

We realised the comfort of working with Berna when we came to Canada. I am glad we found and met with her. She lightened our moving with her kindness, sincerity and tolerance, not only renting a house also in every question that she can help. Our house was ready before we arrived and with Berna's support, we are in a home exactly what we want. Both location and home. We are very grateful for understanding our lifestyle without seeing us and providing this. I'm glad we got to know her————

First of all, Berna is a really, really good person. Why am I saying this because she drew us a road map when it was a few months before we came to Canada, and we contacted her a month before. We have a baby, she not only showed us the most suitable houses for us, but also visited those houses tirelessly and added her personal comments, saying if it was good, it was good, if it was bad, it was bad. Moreover, she always gave her true opinion about the houses we liked but should not have. The most important point for us was that she found beds suitable for our child and sent them a link, and when the time came, she found a job for us and shared the link on LinkedIn. I think we are one of the lucky people to have loved our house very much and to have met Berna before coming to Canada. She always shared with us the links we needed for the house we rented, including electricity, water and internet, and we would like to thank her for always being accessible. I'm glad fate brought you to us, thank you. We deeply appreciated her 🙏🏽🎈❤️

Berna is extremely professional and a wonderful person. While helping us find our new home, she cared as if she were searching for a home for herself, not just a client. She provided advice on the best options considering the market conditions and our financial situation, while also making an extraordinary effort to find a home we would be happy living in. She would show homes over video calls and, in cases of time differences, she would send detailed videos, asking questions about the home that we might never have thought of ourselves. Moving to a new country can be psychologically challenging, and it's easy to panic and start settling for less. Here, Berna's friendship and experience really stand out. With her proper guidance, she helps ease your anxiety, encouraging you to continue searching until you find the perfect ending. Working with Berna was an amazing experience.

We met Ms. Berna upon her recommendation and reached her through social media, then we immediately made an appointment and started the house hunting process. She was patient from the beginning to the end of our process and helped us find the home that best suited our needs. Not only about the house, but also for our new move from Turkey to Vancouver, she did her best to help us handle many of our jobs remotely, and apart from finding a house, I really loved her energy and friendliness. I'm glad we got to know you, Ms. Berna, thank you very much.

We worked with Berna when we were trying to find our first home and she was so helpful and quick in action. Finally, we’ve bought our first home in GVA and we can’t thank her enough for her help and effort. She is detail-oriented and friendly. She also keeps helping us after we close the sale and answering our questions and finding the solution. We highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for their dream home.

Berna is a great consultant. We were very worried as we came from Turkey. It was very valuable for us to feel your support regarding our concerns and expectations. She did a great job helping us rent the house we wanted. Thank you for helping us get off to a good start in our new life.
