Jessica Kennelly was an outstanding resource in helping me find a new apartment in Ottawa. After many months of difficulty finding an ideal apartment, I was referred to Jessica through a friend in hopes that she might be able to assist. Not only was she able to assist, but she went above and beyond expectations. She guided me through every step, explained everything thoroughly and paid special attention to my criteria. I'm now happily writing this review in my new apartment. Jessica strives to make you feel comfortable and was always available for questions. I've had issues with agents being dishonest and/or flakey. Fortunately, Jessica is punctual, detail-oriented and very knowledgeable. When Jessica knew an apartment had issues or didn't quite fit my criteria, she was straight forward in the most kind manner and allowed me to weigh both pros and cons. It is a rare quality to meet someone so honest, professional and passionate about their work, you could tell she enjoys helping others. I didn't feel rushed, nor pressured. Jessica's integrity is truly unmatched. I would have never thought that something as stressful as finding a new place would be so seamless. She goes the extra mile. We went through a few places, she didn't mind giving me a drive to viewings when needed and she was always patient. Seriously, don't look too far for the ideal realtor, you will be in great hands with Jessica. I rarely write reviews, but this was deserving. I want to personally thank Jessica for a wonderful experience and I hope that you are lucky enough to find her.

DAVE = Devoted + Aware & Ardent + Versatile + Eloquent This is how I would describe Dave Robertson. When we chose to move to Ottawa from Toronto while not having any contacts to apprise us about the city, the current real estate status while being newbies to Canada and first-time home buyers we contacted Dave randomly after looking at his YouTube videos and decided to take a shot in the dark. Boy oh boy it was the best shot we've ever taken in the dark. In just a week after meeting Dave we were able to win the offer on the property that we had our eyes on. And all happened so fast while we didn’t even step into the property. Dave did everything for us aaaalllll by himself when we had just 1 day to offer day including validating the home himself by connecting with us over Zoom calls, arranging for a home inspection at very short notice and all this during Thanksgiving weekend. We felt like we had a friend helping us all the way. The most important aspect about Dave is he gives the right amount of critical information and suggestions without putting us into any kind of pressure of wanting to compromise on our financial limits as buyers. It did not stop there, Dave referred to us a mortgage broker and a lawyer who were awesome. I would recommend Dave to anyone for their real estate needs and confidently vouch that it will be a unique and a fruitful experience!

We are so glad we reached out to the LIFE real estate group for our buying needs. As first-time home buyers, we not only needed a realtor to help us find a home but we needed someone who understands our circumstances, finances, and requirements well. We were confident during our first-time introduction to work with Matt Gannon. He is passionate to help first-time home buyers and is a great real-estate expert. He made sure that he understood our requirements and guided us in our approach too. He was always available to answer all our questions, we never had to wait for a response. He is very prompt, detailed, and responsive. We were able to educate ourselves with his guidance and explanations on real estate-related matters. He is very informative and knowledgeable. Even in such a competitive market where it is hard for a first-time buyer like us to succeed, Matt never gave up and always encouraged us. There was a time when we were feeling stuck and that’s when Matt came up with some creative ideas for us to try. Today when we have actually succeeded in buying our first home, we thank Matt for all his hard work and guidance that enabled us to make informed choices. Matt is an awesome person and we’re good friends. We highly recommend Matt Gannon and LIFE real estate group.

Earlier this year we approached Jessica Kennelly to help us with the sale of our home in Ottawa and it was a fantastic experience. We had a date in mind of when we wanted to list our house and Jessica made it happen with her team. Our house was photographed and a video tour was taken - both turned out amazing and showcased our house better than we could have expected. The listing information was very detailed and marketed on social media. Within 2 days of the official listing going up, we had something like 25 showings and 4 offers. We were able to pick the offer that worked best for us with Jessica's guidance. Any questions we had, Jessica was able to answer quickly and put us at ease throughout the process as we had already purchased our next home, which came with some pressure to sell as quickly as possible without settling for an offer that didn't suit our needs. I don't think it could have happened any faster or smoother thanks to Jessica and her team making it a seamless process. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a real estate agent and LIFE Real Estate Group for making it all come together. Thanks again for making something that is usually a very stressful event such a smooth and painless process!

We would like to give a big shout out to Dave Robertson and his team. This was our fifth move and the first time working with Solid Rock Life Real Estate Group. Dave was successfully able to help us navigate the Ottawa real estate market. He prepared detailed video market analysis (first time we have had a realtor provide this kind of service) prior to us making an offer on three different homes. The guidance he provided turned out to be very accurate. We were able to purchase a great home in the heart of Barrhaven at a competitive price. The home we purchased came to our attention on very short notice. Dave was able to get us in to view the home we wanted on Super Bowl Sunday. The sellers accepted our offer on Valentine's Day. We also used Dave and his team to sell our home. The list price he recommended proved to be accurate. Dave provided guidance that assisted us in staging our home. The feed back we received after each viewing and the open house was also very helpful. We were able to sell our home for a price that other similar homes had sold for in the area. Dave and his Solid Rock Realty team were key to connecting us with right buyers. We would definitely use Dave and Solid Rock Life Real Estate group again.

We bought our house in March 2020, and were first time home buyers. Kelly Anderson was our main realtor and Dave Robertson helped us at the end of the process, seamless and great communication between all. As first time home buyers, we were afraid this could be overwhelming, but Kelly was fantastic. We went to 7 houses before we found our dream home and put in 3 offers. Making offers felt intimidating at first, but Kelly walked us through the process and gave us great advise with approaches. We were constantly in the loop, Kelly and Dave were great about being available for questions and sending us lots of updates. Kelly listened closely to our needs/wants list and sent a variety of listings our way. Our home inspector was recommended by Kelly/LIFE Real Estate, very happy with them as well. We found our real estate lawyer through Kelly too. One stop shopping! Kelly and Dave each attended one of two home inspections with us, very helpful translating what is typical to find, and how that could affect the offering price on the home. It's hard to believe we're all done and settled in our new home!

Dave was recommended to me by my mortgage broker, so I did not know what to expect. As it turns out, I found myself the best possible ally to get through the stress of buying my first home in this insane seller’s market. To put it simply, Dave knows what he’s doing and he is a stand-up guy. He will take the time to explain the process to you, and will always be available to answer all your questions. He is also very down-to-earth and trustworthy; never once did I feel that he was trying to push me in a certain direction for his own benefit. He was very honest about the value of homes I was interested in, and offered strategic advice when came the time to make an offer. Even during the home inspection I could tell he had my interests in mind when asking questions to the inspector about the condition of certain things. And to top it all off, he is kind and friendly. I cannot emphasize enough how positive my experience with him was. I will be recommending him to my friends and family, and if you’re reading this you should definitely give him a call!

Kelly Anderson helped us buy our new home and sell our existing home. If there is a term for “bridezilla” in the home buying and selling world it would fit me perfectly. I ask a lot of questions. We wanted a large lot with municipal services and natural gas on a small budget. Kelly sure did work her magic to find what we were looking for. We went on three house tours and ended up putting offers in each time until the wonky market around Easter weekend gave us a win. It was then time to get ours ready! Kelly came over and we went through a bunch of staging options, and she booked the videographer/photographer soon after. He was also great to work with. The house went on the market and three showings were scheduled for the weekend along with a bustling open house. We received an offer the day of the open house and we were sold! Three days and done. Kelly has earned every bit of her great reputation across the Ottawa and valley area.

Dave assisted our family of 6 through the sale of one home and the purchase of another. Each step of the process with Dave and his team was pleasant and extremely professional! When it came to selling our home, we really appreciated his negotiating skills as he helped us navigate multiple offers. (in what was at the time a buyer's market!) Where it came to buying a house - the home we ended up purchasing had been on the market for months without a sale. As it turns out, the tenants occupying the home had been refusing showings. (Didn't want to move?) Rather than just accepting that frustrating situation, Dave went in person and knocked on the door. His tenacity got us the chance to see the home that evidently few other realtors had pursued. That house is now ours and we're loving it! Highly confident that Dave and his team will be able to replicate these successes and more for others who are looking to sell or purchase a home.

I worked with Matt Gannon in my search for a house. It wasn't easy in this market, but Matt was with me every step of the way. I often had my doubts about finding the right place for me, but Matt constantly reassured me that I would find the perfect fit. He always kept me in the loop about new listings and was always available to check something out if it interested me. While looking at properties, I could tell Matt had done his homework and was extremely knowledgeable about all the necessary details. After finally finding the perfect home, Matt has kept in contact and continues to help me whenever he can. Matt is very professional and an awesome person. I couldn't recommend him enough if you're looking for a place in Ottawa!

Kelly Anderson was efficient, super responsive day and night, friendly, and helped us buy our home and list our previous house for sale all within a few weeks during summer 2020. She did all of the research (I.e. to look into home specific questions including rural properties), paperwork and communication with the buyers/sellers, arranged the inspections, photographer, etc. so it made the whole buying and selling process super easy and way less stressful than I anticipated. She also provided great advice during the whole process, especially during the summer when we had to be strategic with the pricing. Would highly recommend Kelly and her team if you're looking to buy or sell a home.

Worked with several real estate agents until we found Dave! He is by far the best we dealt with. He took his time to look at houses with us and determine appropriate cost. He even came with us to all the open houses (and there were many). Even when he did not agree with our offer, he didn't give us a hard time submitting it and always showed his support. As we didn't get a chance to do a formal inspection, we relied on his experience as a realtor and doing many walkthroughs prior. Overall, we are happy with the home we bought through him, and we would pick him again any day. Thanks Dave for your help and dedication.

Sarah Moore is fantastic! Myself and a team of health care providers recently needed to support a client and their family in securing an accessible rental property on an urgent basis and we were so fortunate to have had Sarah involved. She was incredibly supportive and understanding of the family's needs, not to mention highly responsive and informative every step of the way. She was on top of everything and made what was a very complex situation go as smoothly as possible! Our entire team, as well as the client, were so pleased to work with her! I would highly recommend Sarah for your real estate needs!

Life REG is so great! Kelly Anderson helped us find our home quickly and efficiently a couple years ago when we were posted to Ottawa with work. We had a limited amount of time for our house hunting trip and had to make it work, Kelly made it happen. She responds to inquiries really quickly, her communication is clear and she listens to what we are looking for. She took all the stress of house hunting away. We used Kelly again recently to find our newest home and she, once again, did not disappoint! Looking forward to using Kelly at Life REG again in the future. Thank you for all that you do.

We worked with Sarah Moore to find a house and couldn't recommend her more highly. We were first-time home buyers, and it's so important to find someone you can trust, who will help you look for the good and bad of a place to find the best possible fit for your needs. Sarah was incredibly available and generous with her time, answered any and all questions (no matter how silly), gave great recommendations, and mostly importantly, really felt like she had our best interests at heart. You will be in the best hands with Sarah to guide you through this complicated and potentially stressful time!

It was an exhilarating buying experience, where we viewed 15 homes in less than a week! Matt was with us every step of the way. He was patient, knowledgeable, and focused on finding the perfect home that was suitable to all our needs. He answered messages and questions promptly (weekdays, weeknights, and weekends), with professionalism and care. He booked viewings within minutes of us asking, helped us learn about each home in detail, and gave guidance on the buying and negotiating process once that time finally came. We are very grateful for all his hard work!

As first time property buyers we were really impressed with Matt Gannon. He went above and beyond, met with us on several occasions to view properties until we found the right one. Matt is always prepared, knowing specific details about the properties we viewed (hydro access, well drilling, land restrictions etc) and gave us his personal insight and expertise on choosing the right one. He really made the buying experience smooth and easy. Thanks again Matt, we’re really excited and can’t wait for the next steps!

Matt is a long-time friend of mine who is bursting into the realty scene! Although I'm currently not ready to purchase a home at this time, I have been interested in educating myself on what it takes to purchase a home and what options are available in terms of my personal ideal dream home and Matt has been the guy to help me with that! Matt is a family man himself and a person you can trust to ensure you will find the safest and most comfortable home for yourself, your partner, and/or your family!

I have purchased several homes with Kelly, and it has always been a fantastic experience. Kelly carefully notes what I'm looking for in a home, and creates custom notifications based on my preferences. Additionally, she is extremely responsive, and gives excellent buying advice. As a first time homebuyer, it was very comforting to know that Kelly was there to help me through the process. I will certainly be working with Kelly for all of my future real estate needs.

Matt Gannon was extremely supportive as we sold our Barrhaven condo. Him and his team, especially Julia, staged our home beautifully at no cost to us, and gave us important advice. Matt kept us up to date very conveniently on all staging bookings, and he got our condo sold in 4 days, and it was very favourable. He knew which offers to jump at, and which to be patient on. We highly recommend hiring Matt and the LIFE Real Estate Group to help sell your home!

I would 100% recommend Kelly Anderson to any home buyer. As a first time home buyer, I relied on Kelly to walk me through the process from start to finish. She was always there to kindly and professionally answer any question I had in an extremely timely manner. She was honest and helpful in my decision making without any pressure whatsoever. She also recommended both an excellent broker and lawyer to me, making the process even smoother. Thank you Kelly!!

Dave was an absolute delight to work with! He is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and takes the time to ensure you have a full understanding of what to look for in a house. We had a lot of different things that were important to us when finding a home and Dave rose to the occasion to find us our dream home. I would highly recommend Dave as a realtor! Thank you for everything you have done - we could not have been happier with the outcome!

Dave was amazing from start to finish. After listing our home 3 times previously with different agents and without success, Dave was able to get the job done. He came to our initial meeting with a solid plan and comparables to hep us understand the market. He was very knowledgeable of the product. He stuck with us until the end, and his services was remarkable. Easy to reach, easy to understand, goes the extra mile. Thanks Dave!

My realtor, Matt Gannon, was very diligent and honest every step of the home buying process. From searching for properties to submitting in a bid, he made my first experience buying a home comfortable and hassle-free. He always kept us informed about what was going on, and gave us sound, informed advice I’m very grateful for the care and dedication Matt offered my family and I, and would definitely recommend him!

We would like to thank our agent, Sarah Moore, who worked tirelessly to find us the perfect home. She responded quickly to our requests for more information about properties for sale and assured us we would find what we were looking for. She was patient and upbeat and always had a smile in spite of our special needs. We will miss her :( Dave Robertson also deserves an honourable mention. Thank you, Dave!

Jessica was so incredibly helpful and professional throughout the entire process of finding tenants for my townhouse. She created a safe space to ask questions, share concerns and always provided me with the information promptly. As a first time landlord, I was quite nervous but she made this process so seamless and presented me with so many great options for tenants! Thank you, Jessica!

My boyfriend and I are first time homebuyers. LIFE Real Estate Group provided amazing services to ensure this process was super easy for us. They were responsive, understanding, flexible and they set our expectations according to the market. We wouldn’t have been able to get the house we did without them. I would 10/10 recommend using them whether you are a first time homebuyer or not.

This was my second real estate transaction with Dave. From start to end, Dave guided me through selling and buying. He responds in a timely manner, and communicates very well and treated us with respect. His knowledge of the real estate market, as well as general "house things" helped us greatly in decision-making. Dave is friendly, personable, and kind. Highly recommended agent.

We had the privilege to have Dave Robertson and his team at Life Real Estate Group represent our interests in the sale of our home. Dave guided us through the process and took the lead so we would have a stress free experience. If you are looking for a professional, experienced and engaged person to get you the best value for your home; Dave Robertson would be my recommendation.

Michael went above and beyond in ensuring our house purchase was smooth and stress free. He not only provided all the support we needed, he also displayed excellent professionalism in his services and even followed up after closing to ensure our move in was sweet. Overall Michael is a rockstar and I will recommend him over and again. Thanks Mike

Dave has been a wonderful real estate agent and we always reach out to him first! Nearly 10 years ago Dave helped us purchase a home. He was well informed on the real estate market and conducted himself in a professional manner. Recently he sold our home and listed our property for rent. All were an extremely easy process, thanks to Dave.

My experience as a first time buyer was made very easy and convenient thanks to Matt Gannon. He went out of his way to ensure I had every detail needed to make my decisions. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a hassle-free experience buying or selling. I can't thank you enough Matt, you've helped kickstart my dream home.

I can't recommend Dave enough. He helped us buy our home and then sell it 5 years later. He and his team are excellent. They're responsive, knowledgeable and provide an amazing selling or buying experience. And Julia was wonderful with helping us stage our home to sell and providing the information we needed. Thank you Dave and Julia!

Matt Gannon was awesome to work with. He pays attention to details, he is very knowledgeable and very quick to answer all of our questions. He made buying our first home a very smooth process.

Jessica was incredible throughout the entire process, which given my tight budget and requirements, spanned over roughly 18 months! Her dedication, professionalism, and determination shone as she guided me through the challenging market to find the perfect home. I highly recommend having Jessica help you find your perfect home!

We bought a house with Dave in August 2022. Dave is very friendly, understandable and knowledgeable person. We had a very tight terms to buy a property. And in this situation Dave helped a lot and we got the house we wanted. Dave, thank you a lot! We are very glad we chose you and really happy to live in our new home.

Jessica was very helpful with finding a home and going through the bidding process. She was honest about the condition of prospective homes and had knowledge about the surrounding area. When I (twice) lost a bid on a property, she helped me keep looking until I found the house for me.

I know Dave Robertson for many years now. He successfully sold our new home six years ago, and did incredible job on selling the current house. During this unprecedented time he found the best solution for us keeping our family safe and getting us the best deal ever. Thank you!

Dave Robertson made the experience of selling my home very easy. He was responsive and hustled to give the listing as much exposure as possible, using multiple approaches. His advice was candid and sound, and the house sold very swiftly. I highly recommend working with Dave!

Working with Matt made house-buying a breeze. He's quick to respond to your calls, and is observant during showings, pointing out small details that the novice buyer will miss. Making offers was fast and easy. He offered sound advice regarding offers and conditions.

Kelly Anderson was our realtor and I would refer any home buyer to seek her help! She took the time to understand our needs and was patient while we looked at a number of houses. She is quick to respond and answered every question we had as first time home buyers.
