Smooth sailing with Sarah!

Buying and selling a home can be like weathering a storm – so, navigating with ease into a safe harbour with some fun along the way, is what I’m guessing you’re looking to do.  I love to sail - so forgive me while I continue with the analogy!

When was the last time you bought or sold a home?
For most people it was 5+ years ago and so the details and the steps you go through are all a little fuzzy! (Besides… regulations are constantly changing and so are market conditions!)  In my world, I live the details of real estate every day!

I have always believed that when you make the decision to buy or sell, these are YOUR life changing decisions and not anyone else’s.  I am there to coach, guide support you!  So, “jump on board!”  It‘s important YOU take the helm with me as your navigator and crew!   “Land ahoy!

Besides my Okanagan Lake sailing obsession (LOL!) here are 3 things about me as a quick introduction.  You will find me to be:

  1. an active partner – I am known for early mornings and some late nights too!  I truly am on call for when you need to wrestle through the big decisions.  You can call me anytime … and I will answer!
  2. a clear communicator – my previous career in marketing and account management in business was all about taking complex statistical results and helping clients to figure out what to DO with the data.  This skill is critical in real estate.
  3. a powerful negotiator – working on multi-million dollar deals in the corporate world has honed my skills to get the best deals for my clients

Sarah was great to deal with, she would show any house to us even though it may have been a bit out of our budget. Really liked her support with what our property plans were, she seemed generally interested in all of our input (good or bad). - Joe

April 26, 2022

Reply:    LOL -- I'm always interested in your input Joe -- even now!!! You are super practical and have a great eye for opportunity to improve the property. I hope this is going to really work for Lara's business.

Sarah guided me through the sale of my lakeview lot in Vernon. Made more difficult by the fact that it was long distance as I live in Prince George. From our first communication Sarah was nothing but professional, while also being very real and easy to work with. She explained each phrase of the process until I felt very comfortable with everything. Sarah advised and guided me through every aspect from setting a price to countering on offers. She gave me the information and confidence to make all the correct decisions. Thank you Sarah, Pierre - Pierre Bergeron

April 23, 2022

Reply:    Thanks Pierre! We managed the distance well and we also managed to get the highest price for any lot sold in that area to date!!!! Yahoo! That made it worth hanging on to for all those years for you!

Sarah worked vigorously with me for a year we searched Vernon.. Mara lake.. Sicamous.. west Kelowna.. I had estate problems I could not buy until a year later ( this was unexpected) we then kept searching these areas for anything I thought could be a possibility.. it was during a difficult time to purchase we were faced with multiple biding wars which I did not want to get involved in.. some home sold within hours of listing I had no chance.. Sarah took time with me to show me everything from condos.. to cabins to houses .. Sarah recommended areas I never heard of.. I wasn’t sure which road I wanted to take.. being a single lady I decided no strata fees some were quite high & it was scary if some would need upgrades down the road and I would have to put our lots of money.. In the end I decided to look a couple hours away .. Sarah offered to refer me to that area specialist as she did not know the market well enough she felt for me to get my monies worth in value . Sarah answered st my phone calls.. texts..emails promptly.. clearly & professionally making sure my questions or concerns were answered in detailed replies.. Sarah carried her own flash lite and went into attics and basement crawl spaces & made note of anything she didn’t like or understand and directed these to professionals for answers it was like she was buying the house for herself.. Sarah ride a roller coaster with me for over a year always offering alternative solutions if the path we were taking hit a dead end.. If you look up the words “ Above & Beyond beside them should be engraved “ Sarah” - Heather

Sarah recently sold my single family investment house. She arranged absolutely everything from gutter cleaning to septic pump-out, keeping me well informed of the step by step progress. Sarah suggested I have the property inspected before going to market, and this proved very strategic. Buyers came to the table with offers quickly, and no subject to inspection. Sarah's gentle manner with the tenant was appreciated and made for very cooperative showings. I would hire Sarah in a heart-beat. A true pleasure to do business with her. - Kitty Brodie

Sarah was great to work with - not only very knowledgable and detailed in her work, she found out our priorities and helped us to show us properties that we could seriously consider. She stayed with us through a long process of a new home construction and willingly offered sage advice - we always felt that she “had our back”. She is so positive and always a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend her to any of our friends and relatives! - S Kutney

I found that Sarah was very comfortable and professional to deal with. She went out of her way to find the property’s that I would be interested in. She was very Thurrell and well Knowledged of the listing available. I would highly recommend using Sarah as your realtor she will find you the dream home you’re looking for. She did a great job trying to find me my dream home,but unfortunately we just couldn’t find that right place. I was kept up to up to date on all the resent listings, she even managed to find me some places that weren’t even in the listings. Highly recommend Sarah Kennedy to be your realtor, you will not be disappointed, she’ll get the job done. Give her a call. - Dave Kohnert

Sarah is very upbeat, careful, patient, proactive and respectful, and a superb, intelligent listener. She was direct, honest, encouraging and realistic in the information and advice she provided. Sarah is a data and statistics maven! Sarah was a very effective and principled negotiator, advising us on key aspects of our offers while protecting our interests. She is a savvy woman of heart and mind. - Two Lower Mainland refugees

Sarah was in constant contact. Answered all questions. Was prompt with changes and requests. You’ll be delighted you chose her to sell your home. Brilliant with suggestions. Listened to our concerns and solved them. - Hansen Sarah was the ultimate realtor for our needs. We had acreage and a view property. She took the time to find out what we lived about our place. She spent the time finding alike listings for comparative value. She responded to all phone calls quickly. She was in contact daily which we heard was rare with realtors. Of note she made house yours happen against all odds of heat wave and wildfires. And she made it clear we were acting as a selling team. It worked. - Sharon - Hansen & Sharon Villars

I have interviewed about twenty agents over the years, and Sarah was the most prepared of any. She showed up at our first meeting with everything from comparable listings to topographical maps of our property and ratings of the local schools. She was professional, informed, flexible and fun. We wanted to take advantage of a sellers' market and sell as quickly as possible. There was a slight miscommunication on listing date, but Sarah immediately got on it, contacting ten photographers before she found a talented pro who took stills, video and drone shots. He even photoshopped our pool - which is awaiting a new liner - to show the property at its best. We had four days of showings and received six offers over asking! We couldn't be happier. We were away during the showings and Sarah was here every morning to make sure my pots were receiving extra water in the 40 degree heat. Sarah has also put us in touch with a lawyer to handle the sale. Closing will be in about seven weeks but we know we can call on her for anything we need until that time. We would highly recommend Sarah Kennedy to others. - Barbara S

Super upbeat and easy going personality. Trustworthy and knowledgeable about the real estate market. Very Helpful through every step of the buying process and would double check with other realtors to make sure of things so no miscommunication occurred. - Rachelle Cook

As a veteran real estate investor I valued Sarah's knowledge of the local real estate market and her constant availability to both show properties remotely and in person. On more than one occasion she went out of her way to make things happen. Her prompt response time to all of my inquiries proved invaluable in a hot market. Sarah was also helpful in connecting me with her network of local resources. It was truly a pleasure to work with her and I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone who wants a knowledgeable, professional and fun realtor. Thank you Sara! - Walter Pershin

Sarah brought enthusiasm into our real estate experience. She was prepared and well connected to the local market. She made us aware of the many details involved with selling a home and made sure each step was completed in a timely manner. Sarah is friendly, attentive and communicates well. Our home was sold quickly, above the asking price without any drama. It was a totally inclusive experience, we were guided and supported throughout all the decisions we had to make; we were confident and knew we were in the driver's seat in the process. Thank you so much Sarah! - Roxy Rollins

Sarah worked very hard to find the right forever home for us. She was efficient, patient and very knowledgeable about each listing that we visited. We were very fortunate to have her as our realtor for selling our home and buying our new condo. We highly recommend her and would certainly use her service again if we were to move again. - Bev Strachan

Sarah was absolutely great to deal with.  She had our house listed quickly and was always on top of informing us when showings were happening.  Selling of buying can be a very stressful time, but with Sarah we never felt pressured or stressed to do things that were out of our comfort zone.  She is a very supportive person and truly want to help make your next home a reality, or new house dreams come true.  I cannot say enough good things about Sarah! - Joe Rempel

Reply:    I was always blown away with how supportive you both were to each other and what each property we saw offered to fulfill your dreams. We did an special amount of diligence with that property - well, land, home itself , regulations etc -- and that paid off!

We would ABSOLUTELY refer Sarah Kennedy to any potential sellers! She supported our hopes, dreams, and requests through the whole process. Not once did we feel pressured or uncomfortable. She worked well with our whole family, I feel the transparency she offered was a breath of fresh air! Her professionalism, knowledge and hard work was impressive, she is great at her job. In the end we decided not to sell, through it all she continued to support our decisions and showed amazing integrity! We will absolutely use Sarah again, and would encourage all friends and family to do the same! - Lara Rempel

Sarah is the best! She was thorough, professional and great to work with. She kept me apprised about available places and always let me know as soon as a new one came on the market. I was purchasing over the Christmas holidays and Sarah was always available and more than helpful. She was honest and forthright- no games. You will be more than happy working with her! - Andrea

Sarah was a pleasure to work with and helped us to make some stressful decisions easier. She spent a lot of time to find us properties that could work and gave us lots of information in regards to the market situation, like how many days the property is on the market and pricing comparison with other similar units. She is very knowledgeable and we will definitely use her services again should the need arise. - Heidi Borgeaud

Sarah was outstanding! She spent hours and hours with us on our search. She certainly went "above and beyond" the call of duty several times for us.

Sarah was amazing! From start to finish Sarah was always very informative, super friendly and could not make us feel at more ease. She helped us a lot throughout the whole process as this was the first time for my girlfriend and I buying property. Sarah was always positive, professional and realistic with the homes we viewed. She always had good feedback and input on the homes we saw. Sarah always responded promptly, answered all our questions and made the whole process flawless. Sarah also gave us great advice when it came to putting in an offer and made all the communication between both parties very pleasant. My girlfriend and I could not be more happy with Sarah! - Daniel Bruning

Sarah was excellent to work with. We initially had another realtor and were paired with Sarah due to conflicts of interest. It was definitely the best thing that could have happened for us. She was very knowledgeable, professional, warm, friendly, and made you feel like you'd known her for years. The deal for our first home was a complicated one to say the least, and Sarah stayed on top of everything she needed to the whole time, going the extra mile to do research into home warranties and GST for us, setting us up with a home inspector (who was also great), and relaying all of our questions/concerns with the selling agent/homeowner in a super timely manner. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking to buy or sell. - Whitney Redman
