Doug...Here is a friend that needs your help

Doug,Just a short note to let you know that I passed along your name to a friend of mine from Toronto. Bill and I are both members at the same Golf Club. Bill is considering a move to the Niagara Region and asked if I could refer him to a real estate agent. There is no one else that I would even consider.With best wishesRick & Lenore

Thank you for all of your help !!

Doug it was a pleasure to have you as my sales representative in the sale of my home in Niagara on the Lake recently. You advertised it, had several successful open houses along with many private showings...all as promised! I was kept informed at all times of your efforts. Thank you for all of your endeavours on my behalf. It was a great experience doing business with you .... Maura Parks

Extremely pleased with Doug's professionalism....It's one thing to find a buyer, and quite another to close the deal. Doug showed extremely good negotiation skills in an often difficult situation. He had our full trust and came through with flying colours.

Thanks Doug !!

Doug stepped in when our first real estate agent dropped the ball. The difference was amazing. Within a week people were viewing our property and expressing interest. We sold soon after at a higher price than expected. Incredible trust and service. "

This was the best selling experiance that i have ever had and i have sold many homes in the past. I would and have referred Doug to friends and family.

Nick Tavernese, Niagara-On-The-Lake

Doug did an excellent job, getting us an offer in two days and firming it up in eight. We could not have asked for more as this saved us having to go through the turmoil of multiple showings. He also helped us to purchase our new home and was instrumental in getting us the price we wanted to pay. All in all we were extremely pleased with his service and expertise and would recommend him to anyone buying or selling.

Jane Tavernese, Niagara on the Lake

Thank you

Doug was extremely professional and honest throughout the sale process. He listened to what I had to say, told me the truth and never made a promise that he did not keep. Working hard to meet my requests, he sold my home with 25 days at an investment number that I was satisfied with. I would recommend him to all prospective home sellers. I wish there were more sales representatives like Doug.

Working with Doug Widdicombe on the sale of our home was a pleasurable experience. From the time he stepped into our home we were impressed with his ability to connect with us and gain our confidence and trust. We have always been proud homeowners and Doug’s excitement to list and show our property was something we found to be personally satisfying.

Brenda & Steve Nicolaides, St Catharines

Doug Widdicombe was a great choice as an agent for selling our mother's home. He was sensitive to our difficult situation of selling the family home to enable our mother to move to a retirement residence. Doug was very reassuring and attentive and gave us much appreciated guidance in preparing the house for the sale. The whole process was handled in a very professional and competent manner. We were kept informed about every step along the way. The house was sold within the time-frame predicted. Our family is very pleased with Doug Widdicombe's service and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Thank you. Angela, Cornelia and Monica (daughters)

Our experience with Sotheby's and our agent Doug Widdicombe was very positive and professional. Sotheby's promoted our high end property locally, Canada wide and internationally. The monthly activity summary was helpful and encouraging. Our agent Doug vetted all prospective buyers, was always available for showings, and gave us feedback after each showing. Tammy Masoumi, Doug's co-lister, was excellent with her experienced professional advice. We were able to close the sale in less than a year, to our satisfaction. Thank you all !

Great work. Very professional. Thank you,

Emanuelle Gattuso, Port Dalhousie

When I decided that I definitely wanted to sell my property, which consisted of my house, a rental house and 28 acres of land, I knew that Doug Widdicombe was THE person I wanted. As I am a widow, I knew that I needed someone that was honest and that I could trust to 'inth' degree.... honesty being the main requirement. I wanted a gentleman. I wanted someone who presents themselves in a confident manner. Doug Widdicombe was all of this. Never did he book a showing without consulting with me first. In fact, Doug is so well versed in matching prospective buyers to properties for sale, that it only took 2 showings to find my buyer.Doug Widdicombe is the most genuine person you could ever hope to meet. Thank you Doug! Wendy Staff

As the real estate market has been flat this season, it was a long haul. However, Doug persisted and we finally wrapped a sale and purchase within 48 hours after several months of relative inactivity. During that time there were a number of open houses and showings and Doug kept us well informed. He and Chelsea were very efficient in concluding the sale and paperwork involved. We appreciate the level of service Doug provided, which far exceeded our expectations.

Carol Lewis and David Antscherl, Niagara on the Lake

Great job! You both handled the sale of our house with integrity and professionalism.We really appreciate the effort you put into the sale which brought us the desired result.

Helle Tupholme, Niagara on The Lake

Extremely Compassionate

Doug was professional, always on time and extremely compassionate. We used Doug for more than the sale of house. He always put his best foot forward to help us work through out situation. Out home was sold quickly but he always kept us informed about the individual showings. We ended up renting and Doug did everything he could to make it happen. He and Carol Perrin are our angels as we are in a great home with great landlords. I would recommend Doug and his firm anytime!
