Having a working relationship with Carlin Koster now over the last few years, and a few transactions, we continue to appreciate the dedication and commitment he shows for his client. We recommend Carlin for any property transaction, whether it be buying or selling.
He is amazing! Carlin is a doer! You have questions, just ask him! He will answer or get you answers. Very knowledgeable, personable and easy to work with. He gave it to me straight, never made me feel silly. He is Dedicated, Researched, and patient. He has responded within minutes, sometimes even seconds! If I ever sell again or make another purchase, he will be my number one. Overall a great experience. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a home.
After working with Carlin a few years ago to purchase my first rental property, there was no question on who I wanted to assist us in finding our new home. Despite our property search criteria changing MANY times Carlin stayed extremely patient with us. His knowledge, professionalism and dedication is unmatched. Carlin keeps his clients best interests at heart and you can trust he will always be on top of every little detail. Looking forward to our next one!
Carlin Koster was amazing to work with during the purchase of our first home. We had many friends who had worked with hi in the past, and despite their raving reviews, he still managed to exceed our expectations! When we first met him, we felt like he really wanted to get to know us, understand our needs, and find us the perfect home. He knew we had very limited experience and knowledge, and he took a very intimidating process, broke it down step by step, and made sure we felt confident from start to finish. Throughout the process, he was always checking in with us, both as a couple but also individually to make sure everyone was happy and having their needs met. By the time he took us to view homes, he understood what we were looking for, and he would give helpful feedback from an objective perspective when we were blinded by emotions or excitement. He was very prompt at responding to messages and phone calls, which ended up being essential when the house we ended up buying came on the market and we were able to be among the first to view, and the first to put in an offer. Carlin recognized how much we loved the house and he worked efficiently and tirelessly, writing up an offer that was appealing to the seller, while still advocating for our needs and wants. He was there for us through the entire process and we really appreciated his guidance. Carlin's biggest strength though, is his ability to pay attention to detail. Not only was there an entire personalized gift basket waiting for us when we walked in to our new home, complete with a red bow on the door, he also followed up with us after we moved in to see how we were settling in. He truly makes you feel like he cares and takes this entire process very seriously. Carlin is a fantastic realtor and an amazing person and we will definitely be referring him to all of our friends and family for their home purchasing and selling needs!
Carlin was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is extremely trustworthy, friendly, approachable, proactive and responsive. He makes you feel like you are his top priority and does everything in his power to make the selling process as easy and seamless as possible. Carlin offers full-service support from initial phone calls and walk-throughs to staging, professional photography, advertising, property showings, buyer negotiations, communication with the condo boards and lawyers, and everything else in between. His go-to-market plan was well thought out and strategic. Carlin has an extensive network in Calgary and area and effectively taps into throughout the selling process. He was able to negotiate a selling price that I was very pleased with. I would definitely recommend Carlin to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. He went above and beyond my expectations and is someone I will trust with all of my real estate needs going forward.
Carlin has gotten to know us over the years working with him. This particular property came up and we all felt this was the right property after many years looking...that would suit our needs currently. He is attentive and dedicated to his job and representing his clients. We will happily continue to work with him on our property purchases and sales. We would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for an engaged realtor.
My husband and I were originally referred to Carlin Koster through a work colleague of mine, and we are so glad we took that recommendation. From the very start of sale Carlin was kind and respectful, and was careful to both explain his process clearly and ensure that any questions and concerns we had were addressed immediately and fully. He provided a very comprehensive plan for how he was going to get us the greatest ROI for our house and ensured we knew exactly what to do in order for our property to show its very best. Due to this great attention to detail from Carlin our house sold only a few days after listing for a higher amount than we had imagined we could get for it. I would recommend Carlin to any of my family or friends who are looking for a friendly, competent, and professional realtor.
We really loved Carlin's honesty and detail oriented during the process of selling of our home. He really took the time to undestand the complexity and rush timelines of our circumstance. His talent resulted in our property being conditionally sold in 10 hours and the selling price was well above listing price.
