WHAT MY CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

Curtis Spencer

We recently worked with Ty as our buying agent in the Comox Valley, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We didn’t know the area that well going into it, but Ty’s local knowledge made all the difference—he helped us figure out which neighbourhoods were the best fit for what we were looking for and was always happy to answer our (many) questions. What stood out right away was how quick and clear he was with communication. Whether it was texts, emails, or phone calls, Ty always got back to us promptly and kept us in the loop every step of the way. That kind of responsiveness made things feel way less stressful. Ty looked out for our interests, didn’t sugarcoat things, and even steered us away from properties that he didn’t think were the right fit or had too many red flags—which we really appreciated. We never felt like he was just trying to close a deal; it was clear he cared about helping us find the right home for our family. Ty also helped coordinate things behind the scenes and was super easy to talk to throughout the process. Ty came as a recommendation to us, and we'd 100% recommend him.

Let me start by saying first… Ty is truly a gem!!! We sold a home, we purchased a home, all with the help and guidance from Ty. He has the patience of a saint… on the hunt for that perfect home, we zigged and zagged our way through the process, starting off zeroing in one type of home (what we thought we wanted) and deciding on a completely different style of home AND in a totally different community to top it off! All the while he stuck with us, supportive, engaged and providing great suggestions – he did not miss a beat. Ty really does pay attention to detail; nothing escapes his eagle eye, and he will quickly share his findings with you. He is professional, meticulous, hard working and thorough in every aspect, whether it is selling or buying a home. Our interactions with him have always been pleasant and we just knew we were in good care with him. It has been refreshing to work with Ty, especially in what can sometimes be a very stressful situation. You won’t go wrong having him as your realtor! Thank you so much Ty, words cannot express our gratitude we have for you.

I have had the pleasure of working with Tyler with Engel & Völkers. Ty has guided me throughout this entire process. His availability, punctuality and dedication to helping me secure my first home made all the difference. His communication, negotiation and responsiveness, both with myself and the seller is outstanding. His thorough research into the property helped me make an informed decision. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent to guide me through this journey. I really appreciate all your hard work and support!

Tom Woods

Ty was a phenomenal real estate agent for our recent house purchase. He went up and beyond as we were negotiating from a distance. He was proactive reaching out to regional district etc over our concerns with possible renovations and restrictions. Couldn’t recommend him enough if you are looking for an agent.

Zachary Betts

My wife and I couldn't be happier after our experience working with Ty. We moved from Vancouver to Nanaimo and what would have been a daunting experience was made much easier with his expert guidance. Ty was kind and knowledgeable. He took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for then graciously accommodated our hectic work schedule to arrange property visits. When it came time to put in an offer, Ty worked tirelessly to secure us our dream home at an affordable price and negotiated to ensure our subjects were met. The move-in day was a hectic 2 day endeavour and disappointingly, the sellers did not fulfill all of their obligations when it came to the professional cleaning of the home. Despite this. Ty immediately arranged for professional cleaning and covered some of the costs. Overall, Ty went above and beyond. We wholeheartedly recommend him for any prospective buyer.

Rebekah Storring

If you are looking for a real estate agent then I highly recommend Ty. Not only is he professional and hardworking but he is very personable and easy to communicate with. What else is refreshing about Ty is hands on approach. Often you meet a realtor and then get handed off and deal mostly with their assistant, but not with Ty. He is with you every step of the way and truly makes it a pleasurable experience. Above and beyond with marketing and extremely involved the process the whole time. Thank for selling our home so quickly Ty. Anyone would be extremely satisfied to have you represent them.

Brittani Schick

Ty is 'realtor legend' status in my books- professional, knows what he's talking about, isn't afraid to get dirty, and wants you to buy the house that's perfect for you. Having an agent that isn't pressuring you into a huge life investment is crucial in this day&age and Ty made sure we were comfortable, satisfied & stoked with our purchase. He's also a part time comedian on the side - to make all the viewings entertaining. Thanks Ty!

Paul Macara

We recently engaged Ty to sell my mother's home in Courtenay. I have been in the real estate business for over a decade, worked with many agents, and seen it all. Ty was nothing short of exceptional. In an unpredictable market, he was able to secure a fantastic offer on my mother's home in an impressive timeline. He was extremely professional and communicative throughout the process. If you want the best, Ty is your guy!

ellen macara

When selling my house, Ty has gone above and beyond to make this experience smooth. As I was away during the first week my house was listed Ty kept me up to date and brought in a buyer very shortly after my house was on the market. Ty is very professional and respectful of your property. Thank you Ty for making this experience a positive one.

Alan Phillips

Ty is dedicated, professional, enthusiastic and goes WAY beyond any other realtor I have ever worked with. We sold our house and at the last minute encountered some issues that could of potentially stalled or derailed the sale of the house. Ty stepped up and pain stackenly worked with all parties, ensuring a smooth closing that was more then satisfactory for the buyer and seller. His quick thinking and immediate action was inspirational. Ty will be handling all of our future real-estate ventures. Thank you Ty, until next time.

Paige Phillips

To say that Ty went above and beyond for the sale of my house is a huge understatement. We ran into a very difficult situation and Ty was knowledgeable about the legal process we should follow and then rolled up his sleeve on the ground to ensure of the sale was completed. Ty is communicative, reliable, and knows his stuff. From the first day we met him he kept in constant communication and always had a solution and plan before a problem even presented itself. I will be telling every person I know on the island to seek out Ty as a realtor as he is worth every penny and a lot more. If you are buying or selling a house go with Ty, he will work hard to get you the best deal and then celebrate with you when you get more than you were looking for.

Mike Woodhead

In a word: Amazing! I recently had the pleasure of working with Ty Collyer from Engels & Volkers, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. Ty guided me through the home-buying process with professionalism, expertise, and genuine care. He listened attentively to my needs and preferences, ensuring that he presented me with properties that aligned perfectly with my requirements, and, just as importantly, steered me clear of properties with any potential problems with genuinely impressive attention to detail. It was comforting to know the biggest purchase of my life was in safe and professional hands. His knowledge of the local market was impressive, and his negotiation skills were top-notch, resulting in a successful purchase that exceeded my expectations. Ty made the entire process smooth and stress-free, and I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a dedicated and reliable real estate agent.

Nuvola Capitanio

I had the pleasure of working with Ty when my clients decided to make a move to the Island this fall. Excellent communication, attention to detail and customer care was provided at all times. I would highly recommend him to all my clients moving to the Island. Thank you Ty for your hard work and for delivering everything that we had requested! Can't wait to work together again.

Working with Ty has been nothing short of amazing. He made purchasing my first home one of the easiest and stress-free experiences I've ever had. Whether it was reminding me throughout the process to get house insurance down to ensuring financing is going well. Additionally, purchasing a condo as my first home required extensive review of Strata documentation. Not being so familiar with how to read these documents, Ty set ample time aside from his surely busy schedule to go over them in great detail. I felt from our first conversation that Ty has my best interest in mind and it completely removed the "Realtor" feel. He made me feel extremely comfortable with my purchase and his confidence and support for me is greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Ty for any home purchasing adventure and I'm sure to work with him again when it comes to my second home.

Sabrina Voerman

I cannot speak highly enough of Ty. As a first time home buyer, this was a whole new world for me and I didn't know the ins and outs of it. Ty made it easy to understand, answered all my questions, and made me feel secure in this major decision in my life. Not only that, but I truly felt like Ty had my best interest in mind, was always transparent, and went above and beyond. I'm beyond impressed with the level of service received by Ty, and highly recommend him if you're looking for honesty and integrity. You're in good hands with Ty!

Dave Seitz

Ty was extremely helpful to us through every step of our home-buying journey. He was friendly and happy to answer our questions from our very first conversation (and being first-time home buyers, we had a lot). He’s also very knowledgeable of the area, and had advice for where to look and what to expect. Ty helped us through the entire process, and made excellent recommendations for lawyers, home inspectors, and other necessary experts. We couldn’t be happier with our new home and the work Ty put in to help us get here!

Monique Wilberg

Detail oriented. Responsive and respectful - Ty did a remarkable managing an estate sale for our family.

David N

Ty Collier very competently lead me through a complex house sale that was fraught with numerous unexpected twists and turns. Through it all, Ty was a steady hand on the tiller, guiding the property preparation and sales process with good humour and a keen eye for the important details. There were a lot of moving parts in this case and I was very thankful that Ty was in my corner. He definitely went above and beyond! I would not hesitate for one second to recommend Ty to anyone having real estate business on the Island. He is professional, careful and possesses a level of integrity that inspires confidence that would be sought-after by anyone looking to buy or wanting to sell property. Five out of five stars.

Steve

I highly recommend Ty! He was on point, on time and very passionate. Responded quickly to our many emails and phone calls . Very accommodating and understanding of our budget and situation. Thanks

Lex Tincteur

Ty went above and beyond in assisting us with the complications of selling estate properties. We live out of the province so there were many steps he took for us that we couldn’t take ourselves. He took the initiative in helping us find contractors to prepare the properties for sale. Ty has a wide network of helpful contacts and is a great problem solver. We highly recommend Ty!

Ronalee Gorrie

Ty Collyer was recommended to us by another realtor on the mainland. My husband and I are in our 70's and set in our ways as to what we wanted in a house on the Island. We were very specific in the area also that we wanted our forever home in. He was able to find that house, and we will be forever grateful. He was patient and understanding of our wants and budget. We move into our new home on June 1 2023, and would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family who may consider moving to Vancouver Island.

Duncan Miller

Ty did an amazing job with us buying our first home. He answered all of our questions, made it to every viewing we wanted to see, and helped us to navigate the market with good advice. As first time buyers it was great to have a realtor who took the time to explain the process. Ty has good knowledge of construction and a solid network of professionals behind him. We wouldn't hesitate to work with Ty again!

Christopher Spring

Do yourself a favor and get this guy as your realtor! I've been investing in real estate for over 10 years now and Ty is by far the best realtor I've worked with. I recently closed on a pre build condo I bought on the island whilst living on the mainland and Ty went above and beyond to make sure the whole transaction went smoothly. I'll be using Ty again in the future and look forward to working with him again. Thanks Ty

Justin Davis

Ty helped me purchase my first home amidst the backdrop of COVID. I am a CPA and Banker and so naturally skeptical and analytical when it comes to financial decisions. His understanding of market trends, willingness to explain thought process and quick response times gave me a leg up on other buyers and I was able to purchase a condo in one of the hottest real estate markets in the world for under asking. After possession I learned of another unit in the building similar to mine (size, finish, layout) sold for $68 ppsf more just 10 days later; by following Ty’s advice the market value of my condo is almost $50k up and I haven’t even been in it for more than 10 days! He develops really great rapport with the seller’s agent as well which is a HUGE advantage for you as a buyer during the offers process in my opinion; he was able to get me a last minute per diem for a deep apartment clean and a small laundry room filter repair from the seller. Icing on the cake, he’s personable and demonstrates social and emotional intelligence far beyond what you would expect from realtors in the Vancouver market. If you want a real person that has your best intentions in mind and knows his numbers, Ty’s your guy. Would recommend him 100 times over. Happy Hunting ! 🏡

Colette MacAskill

Ty is without a doubt the very best realtor our family has ever dealt with. I would say he is the best of the best in the industry and many could learn from him! 6 of our family have hired him as we trust him totally to do his very best for us in a very professional, experienced and respectful manner. Client satisfaction is not enough for Ty. He goes over and beyond to ensure his clients feel confident they will be fairly represented and he has their best interests as his priorities. Some difficult and challenging transactions have transpired over the years and some deals may have collapsed with another realtor, but not with Ty. Trust me, you will really like his mild mannered but very effective salesmanship. He is a very polite, respectful, kind, detail oriented professional that will give you 150%  to make your experience smooth and stress free. 5/5 star realtor. Sent from my Galaxy

J MacAskill

I can’t say enough about the professional service that Ty provided during my recent home purchase. He’s a true pro. This is the third time I’ve worked with Ty and will definitely keep doing so, as he makes buying and selling homes effortless and easy. He always goes above and beyond for his clients. I know a handful of them, and they all say the same. I’m happy to call Ty a friend and he’s definitely the best realtor out there. Highly Recommend! Jace MacAskill

Kay Fedchuk

“I was referred to Ty by my son, and Ty proved to be an excellent choice! He listened to my wish list, made some great suggestions, and then sent me a pretty condensed list of possibilities in a very busy market. Ty is prompt to answer your emails and calls, and finds you the answers to the many questions and concerns that may arise. He went to City Hall for me and pulled the old permit on the house, and diligently looked for some documents we needed. He’s very professional and conscientious, personable and I highly recommend him!“

Gaëtan Kill

Ty displays the greatest traits in his passion for real estate. Professionalism, Knowledge, Conscientious, Respect, Responsibility, Appreciation, Accountability and Personable.

Griffin Steele

Ty was an absolute pleasure to work with while purchasing my first home. He was diligent, proactive, and constantly working with me to make the process as smooth as possible. Ty worked with me to find a place that fit my budget in Vancouver (not an easy task) and I couldn't be happier with the result. Aside from professionalism, Ty was pleasant to work and interact with throughout the process - just a really great realtor.

Aja Whitfield

“Tyler did not only become my realtor but also my friend. As a first time home buyer and Vancouver resident buying property in Campbell River I really did not make it easy. Tyler did an awesome job at narrowing down my options and arranging showings in a very tight timeline. He even picked me up at the ferry and drove me up to Campbell River with a coffee and pastries in hand. His knowledge of construction and design really helped to weed out the bad apples and I ended up with the perfect property for my needs. If you want an honest and hardworking realtor Tyler is your guy. “

Maria Paula Morales

You're in great hands when working with Ty. His passion for ensuring his clients are taken care of goes above-and-beyond the transaction for buyers and sellers alike. Incredibly professional, responsive, respectful and knowledgable.

Marni Grant

Ty worked extraordinarily diligently with our particular needs. He was professional, resourceful and knowledgeable. All things that we really value. I personally would highly recommend Ty unquestioned ! Very satisfied customer. Marni and Jay

christina baillie

We simply can’t say enough about Tyler. The guidance he provided my wife and I through the purchase of our first home was amazing. Buying our first home and in such a hot real estate market was very overwhelming, but right off the bat we knew we were in good hands. It was nine pm on Friday night and we thought we had found the house we wanted, Tyler was able to get into the house that night, did a thorough walk around and advised us against buying that particular place. My point is, we knew he wasn’t just trying to sell us a house, he was trying to find our family a home. In the end he found us our dream home and the house our two small children will grow up in. If you work with Tyler you are in good hands. His knowledge, professionalism and most importantly his work ethic will not disappoint. Thank you again Tyler for finding us the perfect home. Sincerely, ~The Baillie’s

Rob Thomas

As someone who has previously worked in real estate I have to say you will not find a more dedicated and diligent agent working in your court than Ty Collyer. Ty helped our family find our first home that would set us up and open doors for us to move onto the next in a few years. This was our hope and our plan and its exactly what happened. Just shy of three years we sold our home with Ty and were able to move province and into our dream home and lifestyle to raise our family. We owe it to Ty because we are here today by his ability to understand what we needed and also his experience in the market and how to advise us on all the elements in listing our home. We achieved greater success with the sale of our home than we could have ever imagined. We only wish that we could have brought Ty along with us as we relocated our family out of province. Ty comes with the highest recommendation from us. Thank you Ty for everything! We couldn't have done it without you!
