Real Reviews From Real People
“I kept delaying writing this as I can’t begin to describe how wonderful Mariko and Radner are. This was our first sale, so my husband and I interviewed a few realtors and were trying to gage how our condo would fare on the current market. Mariko and Radner came over to see the property and describe their strategies. We had never seen a real estate team so prepared. Not only did they have the comparables already, a fantastic sample brochure and area analysis but they had come with a timeline. Once we saw how far above and beyond they went before we even signed the contract we knew they were truly the gold standard.
This level of customer service never ceased. Their timeline was 100% accurate, we never had any surprises and they always were available for our countless questions. They helped us prepare for the open house (even helped us move furniture!), lended some accent items, and navigated any problems with ease. We received offers after the weekend of our open house and were able to obtain the real estate dream- sell above asking price and purchase below asking price. Their negotiating skills and knowledge of the current real estate climate made us feel confident in our decisions and found us a great new home.
If you are looking for a real estate agent, Mariko and Radner will end your search. We won’t hesitate to use them again and honestly can’t think of anything they could have done better to assist us with the sale and purchase.“

“From the very beginning, Kiyomi listened carefully to our needs, provided honest and expert advice, and handled every detail with precision and care. Her communication was always prompt, clear, and reassuring, making even the most stressful moments feel manageable, especially selling our house very quickly in tough situation .She truly had our best interests at heart and worked tirelessly to ensure the best possible outcomes on both ends of the transaction.
We highly, highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you very much again, Kiyomi, Mariko, Radner, Hana and your team from the bottom of our hearts!“

“If you’re reading this, most likely you’ll be asking yourself right now why would you believe what I am saying? The answer to that is simple: If you’re someone who has family obligations, who works hard for their paycheque, and believes that one of the biggest financial and emotional investment you’ll make in your life is buying a home — then you’ll read on and believe what I am saying.
Mariko and Radner are not only the most professional, smart, and hardworking people my wife and I have met, but also the only people we know in this roller-coaster market who actually listened and understood what my family and I needed. My family and I were more than just a number… We were not just another client or a referral. We felt, that for them, we were family. Their team totally understood that we were making one of the biggest decisions in our lives and not only worked hard to help us, but also protected our interests. You cannot find anyone better in the tri-city area or around Metro Vancouver.“

“I’ve moved with my family 7 or 8 times in my life and experienced working with many realtors through my parents. The experience I had with Bridgewell Group was the best and most amazing ever. They answered all our questions anytime and made sure everything went smoothly.
With their fantastic marketing, we were able to get top dollar for our condo and sell it in 6 days! Buying our new property was a breeze as well. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to sell or purchase a new property. They are go getters!“

“Literally the best. We had the best experience selling our place and buying a new place.
Not only did we sell higher than anyone else in our area, they also negotiated a huge discount on our new build that we bought.
The team was so easy to work with, answering all our questions, ensuring we are ready for our move and sale. We never felt in the dark or confused about anything.
Would definitely use them again and would happily recommend to our friends and family.“

“We had the pleasure of working with the Bridgewell Real Estate team to purchase our single-family home, and our experience exceeded all expectations.
Moving from Toronto to Vancouver, we targeted the Tri-Cities area and we identified Radner and Mariko as local experts through their neighborhood YouTube tours and extensive real estate transaction history. Since they have been brought up in this area, their knowledge is truly invaluable.
A mark of a great realtor is not just finding the right home, but also preventing a bad purchase. We fell in love with a property, ready to proceed despite potential issues. However, Mariko and Radner intervened, explaining the pitfalls and their foresight saved us from a costly mistake and a disappointing first home experience.
Throughout the process, they never pressured us to make decisions hastily, patiently answering every question with detailed explanations. Their professionalism was evident in accommodating our requests and doing their due diligence before submitting offers.
Radner and Mariko work in team setting bouncing ideas with each other and helps to manage their schedule to fill in for each other for home viewings. Their assistant, Hana, was instrumental, efficiently coordinating every time and superfast in her responses. Together, they helped us to put a best offer and negotiated with sellers to address issues before closing.
Above all, we really loved that these folks are truly great human beings to talk and work with, making our first home buying journey blissful rather than a painstaking process. We highly recommend them.“

“Mariko, Radner, and Kiyomi were amazing. My fiancée and I were first time home buyers and really had no prior knowledge to real estate at all. The team at Bridgewell helped educate us on everything we needed to know from our first meet. They provided so much valuable information that helped us feel at ease and confident in our purchase decision.“

“As first time home buyers I cannot recommend the Bridgewell Group enough. They made what I thought was an extremely difficult, daunting, and stressful process into a very enjoyable one from beginning to end. We always felt like they had our best interests at heart, they listened to what we wanted, and never pressured us at all.
This lead to us finding the PERFECT place to call home and we could not be happier! They were with us when we were in an offer/bidding scenario and thankfully they helped us put in a strong offer that was BELOW asking. We even saved money after the inspection as they helped us with negotiations on the property.
They are just a great group of people who we are going to recommend to anyone looking to buy/sell real estate here in BC. A truly wonderful experience.“

“Our condo had been a rental property, which can be a challenge to sell, especially with a tenant in place. However, Mariko and Kiyomi handled the viewings and communication with our tenant with professionalism and patience.
Once the condo was sold, they worked quickly to help us find our dream townhouse within our budget and with all the features we were looking for. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome!
A huge thank you to Mariko, Kiyomi, and their team. We highly recommend them and would absolutely work with them again in the future!“

They were warm and inviting from the very beginning, patient with our requirements and relentlessly positive. They are lightning quick to respond and highly organised. There was never any delay with solutions, suggestions, or required documentation. Their support was invaluable in negotiations to achieve our ideal price for the property. Finally, they’re just great people and a joy to be around. Highly recommended.“

“I can’t speak highly enough of Radner and Mariko. They sold my condo after just SIX days on the market and three open houses! Their friendliness and professionalism was amazing. Radner always kept me informed of everything that was going on. Literally replied to any calls or texts within minutes. And they were able to secure a sale FAR above my asking price. Thank you so much Radner and Mariko! You are an amazing team.“

“As a first-time homebuyer navigating the process on my own, I was initially nervous and unsure of what to expect. However, Kiyomi was there to answer my questions and guide me through every step with patience, expertise, and incredible attention to detail.
I ultimately found my dream home because she visited a unit on my behalf when I couldn’t attend the open house, providing me with a detailed video walkthrough. Thanks her deep understanding of my needs, I found my perfect home!
Throughout the entire process, Kiyomi handled every challenge with professionalism and care. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor—she truly exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking exceptional service!“

“Mariko and Radner went way beyond their work of duty to help a client that was going through a real hard time. I dealt with three transactions with them in a matter of a year and the services where nothing but beyond excellence.
The thing that I admired the most of them, is how knowledgeable, extremely educated and smart they are on everything including real estate wise , including rules, regulations for condo etc,
Most importantly coming from out of town not knowing anything about the areas, I knew I was in good hands with both of them due to their honesty, compassionate hearts and extremely hard working disposition. They never stop to get the results done for anyone and completed transactions within days. Follow ups, returned calls, on top of issues all the time. Answers for everything.
If you want someone out of the ordinary who works for you, take it from a senior lost in a new city. The services where impeccable and I totally put myself in their trust.
Met them on the phone, call to BC Regarding a listing. And they returned my call.These where total strangers to me until I met them in person.“
