Darlene Grundy is, bar none, the finest realtor I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Selling my beloved home due to divorce was heartbreaking, and Darlene navigated the complex path to a strong offer and closing, with astonishing professionalism and compassion.
It's always critical for a realtor to have excellent people-skills and strong market knowledge, but Darlene's skill set far exceeds those requirements. Being the homeowner who no longer resided in the home meant there was a potential for missed information and confusion for me and that never happened. Our home had been on the market for a long time, prior to transferring the listing to Darlene, and she had to address two market-weary homeowners who were experiencing considerable discouragement. She simply took charge of everything and got the job done beautifully.
The emotional nature of the sale was also fully acknowledged when needed, without that acknowledgment ever becoming an obstacle to our progress. Indeed, the sophisticated courage Darlene exudes provided such reassurance and confidence to me!
Additionally, Darlene's design experience highlight my home's presentation, and she utilized an outstanding photographer, whose drone video precisely captured the incredible combination of the wilderness/golf resort magic of our property.
And finally, Darlene's extensive local knowledge of extra services that were needed was extremely helpful at moving time.
I have tried to thank Darlene sufficiently, but I fail. I hope this testimonial in some way reflects the extraordinary calibre of her work.

Having worked with Sotheby’s previously, and enjoyed exceptional service from Darlene Grundy as my real estate agent, my expectations for this particular sale were quite high. I can honestly say that Darlene and her business partner Christina exceeded my expectations once again and delivered results in record time and on target. I would highly recommend Darlene and Christina for anyone seeking a high level of professionalism and integrity for their real estate needs.

I have used many realtors over the years for my real estate investments but Darlene has far exceeded my expectations when she handled the sale of 3 of my properties in Kelowna. Darlene was very knowledgeable, professional and proactive. Darlene’s down-to-earth and friendly personality as well as her attention to details made the experience of selling very easy and streamlined. Her efforts went beyond my expectations of a realtor and I would highly recommend Darlene to anyone looking for a professional to look after their best interests.”

Christine and Robert
Darlene is a very helpful and friendly lady. We contracted Darlene to help buy our new home, which we absolutely love! Her service was very professional and she took the time to understand what we were looking for. She introduced us a variety of communities in the Okanagan before we purchased a home and we appreciated that. Darlene found us “our” home in a very short time that met our needs and our budget. She’s a good listener and really understands what her client’s want and showed interest and care when showing us properties. We would highly recommend Darlene to our friends
Dennis and Dorothy
Darlene is an energetic, enthusiastic and knowledgeable real estate agent. She spends time with her clients, getting to know them, so that she understands their needs and wishes. She educates herself about the property she lists and shows so she is able to describe the properties and answer questions accurately. She willingly invests time and money promoting her listings through her creative staging, professional photography, open houses, advertising and social media so the property shows well and gains great exposure. She is a treat to work with and I strongly recommend her to anyone who is buyer or selling a home.
