Testimonials

I relocated to Parksville last fall, after having sold my condo in Burnaby. The search for my new home was guided and supported with great patience from Team Susan Forrest and specifically from Roger Deveau, while I considered a few different options within the limits of my affordability. Roger and his wife Sarah are themselves smitten with life in Oceanside, and their knowledge and enthusiasm for helping me to relocate in Parksville made them a pleasure to work with. I felt extremely well supported in my search of a 'forever' home, and Roger was patient and encouraged me to view a number of homes from small ranchers to patio homes to condos. I would highly recommend Roger and Team Susan Forrest to assist in the search of your new home in Oceanside!

Beryl and I would like to thank Susan and all the members of Team Forrest for the way the sale of our property was handled. From the first meeting with Susan when we discussed the timing of the listing and the initial price that we agreed on, to the staging process and the photography, everyone we met was professional, complimentary, and genuinely interested in selling our property. When we received calls from the office staff regarding timing of showings, everyone was very professional and pleasant. It did not seem to matter which member of staff we talked to as all staff seemed to be aware of our file and what was happening on a daily basis. There was obviously good communication within the Team. The weekly communication from Team Forrest showing other listings in the area was very helpful to us in determining if our property was listed at a reasonable price. We found the advice we received when we got to the "offers" stage to be extremely helpful and professional. We certainly have no hesitation in recommending Team Forrest to our friends if they are looking for a Realtor.

We were very fortunate to connect with Roger Deveau from Team Susan Forrest when we decided to downsize. Roger was instrumental in guiding us through the complexities of listing and successful sale of our home. Roger’s excellent communication skills, his great advice and his quick response to our frequent inquiries were much appreciated. A shout out to Sarah Roberts for her amazing staging skills using our own furnishings which helped present our home beautifully. Also, thank you to the other members of Team Susan Forrest for your helpful part in the sale of our home (and purchase of our new home!).

Last fall of 2024 we planned a move from Alberta to Vancouver Island. After searching and reading about realtors in the area we chose Jody Moore and were we ever glad we did. Right from the beginning Jody communicated really well and listened to all of our wants in a new home. She made herself available during our home search and cast a sometimes critical but always positive eye on the properties we viewed and imparted local valuable knowledge. We have made many big moves in our lifetime and I can say that Jody made this one easy and successful. Cheers to you Team Susan Forrest and in particular Jody Moore.

Selling your home is a very stressful experience, but I have nothing but praise for my realtor Richard Plowens, and everyone on Team Susan Forrest, for making it so much less stressful. They are professional, helpful, knowledgeable, and they make you feel like you are also part of the team. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone interested in selling or purchasing in the Oceanside area.

Susan is one classy lady! I will recommend her to everyone I know!

Jody was amazing, so knowledgeable on all aspects of a home. As someone with a good knowledge of house construction, I was impressed with how Jody could spot potential issues before we made an offer. Thanks Jody was great working with you.

Susan and her team are clear, honest and very attentive. I would definitely recommend her if you need a realtor on the Island.

If you are looking for a real estate professional who knows the area, listens to your needs, is reliable and honest then look no further than Jody Moore. We contacted Jody to help us with our search for a home in the Oceanside area. From our first meeting it was evident that Jody loves what she does and truly wanted to find us the right home. We were not local to the area and if something caught our eye Jody was quick to take us on a video tour and point out features as well as potential downsides. Once we selected our home Jody took care of everything and made the purchase easy and straightforward. I would not hesitate to recommend Jody Moore to one and all.

We were fortunate to work with Jody Moore on our retirement relocation to the island. Jody is a wealth of information and amazing to work with. She is flexible and toured us around half of the island trying to find the perfect spot. We trusted her opinion on communities and she quickly knew what was a good fit for us. We closed on our house while we were out of the country and could not have done it without Jody's help. We would highly recommend her to anyone.

We had the pleasure of working with Team Forrest - Richard and Susan to sell our Mom's place. Both Richard and Susan made the whole experience understandable, easy to follow, and a very pleasant experience. Their entire team took very good care of us and worked tirelessly to sell my Mom's place. In spite of some set backs with her place, they were able to adapt and promote her place such that it sold successfully within four months. We appreciated their team approach and their friendly personable relationship with us throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Team Forrest for any of your realtor needs - they take very good care of you and make the entire journey pleasant and hassle-free.

I can’t say enough good things about the Susan Forrest Team. They all are so professional to deal with. Richard was my realtor but I had dealings with most of the team and they were amazing. Sara spent hours with me staging my house and it was so helpful. They have such great photographers doing your home’s photos and video my comment when I saw the pictures was “ when can I move in” it looked so good. I appreciated the feedback from viewings and booking showings was done well. You couldn’t find a nicer more caring realtor than Richard. I recommended him to a friend who had him sell her house and she feels the same. This is a great team to have sell your house, and not surprising they sell so many homes in this area.

Thank you to Richard Plowens, Sarah Roberts and the rest of the Susan Forest team. Richard, my realtor kept in touch regularly concerning the status of the market and my property. The team provides feedback on every viewing. I would especially like to thank Sarah Roberts, designer who helped me get through a very difficult time when there was water damage to my home and required major repairs and updates. Because I didn’t live in the house or Parksville at the time she was my contact for all trades who needed to access the home. She also made excellent selections in flooring, paint, cabinets etc. and the result was a good offer that came in just after the Reno’s were complete. I recommend team Susan Forest for any realty needs. For me they are second to none!

I can not thank Susan and her wonderful team enough!! ( Glenda, Bianca, Roger, and all the admin staff). I could not have done this on my own. I was the executor for a friend's estate and found myself overwhelmed with the tasks infront of me. Mainly cleaning out the house and bringing it up to a saleable condition. From day one Susan Forrest made suggestions and gave me referrals to professionals that could assist me with this huge task. The professional marketing, attention to detail, communication through the process, made my job so much easier and less stressful. Susan, was with us every step of the way. She was prompt in answering my calls and questions. Thank you team Forrest for everything you did to make this happen. Highly recommend.
