If you are looking to buy a home, I’d highly recommend First Properties. Kent and his team made purchasing my first home a very enjoyable process.

Kent Van Slambrook is great to work with. He listens to what you want as a client and works diligently to find those elements in your new home in the area you would like to be in.

Kent, was very straightforward with us during our search. He pointed out things that we would not have noticed as well as what may turn into future problems.
