We live in Vancouver but have owned 2 properties in Victoria for both investment and to help fill our children's accommodation needs while attending the University of Victoria. We have used Beth's services twice in the past 3 years. First as buyers, we were impressed by her ability to cut to the quick in determining our needs and matching them to several choices including, of course, our eventual Condo purchase. Later as sellers we benefited from Beth's energy and commitment to detail in marketing our house, and we are confident we got the best possible price. Her knowledge of Victoria and understanding of customers' needs are second to none.

This is the 2nd home Beth has sold for us. Both times it has been a great experience. Beth is an excellent communicator, is very knowledgeable of the market, and well organized. However, her outstanding talent is the way she can market the unique aspects of the property and has vision to show this via her photography and stagingI have, and will continue to recommend Beth to any others I know who are looking to sell

As a realtor, Beth brings an unparalleled set of skills. Her knowledge and professionalism helped us to understand the market and our position in it. Her realism and sense of humour helped us to feel calm and confident in what could have been a very stressful time. Her design sense and skills as a photographer made the presentation of our home outstanding, and earned us almost 100% of our asking price, in only 5 days. We felt so lucky to have Beth represent us in both the sale of our first home, and purchase of our second. We really could not have asked for more!

I have been acquainted with Beth for over a decade and always admired her grace, confidence and caring nature in everything she took on.
In 2016, I hired her as my realtor to help me sell my large family home in Cordova Bay. I was pleased that not only did she bring those great traits to this task, but, she brought so much more.
Her caring and savviness were demonstrated by giving me detailed guidance and support during this very big life transition. The prep, the showing and the offer stages were made easier because of her talents and her suggested professionals that helped clean, paint and stage my home, transforming it into a diamond. All of that hard work was professionally packaged by her elegant photos, and were showcased in an amazing marketing feature magazine. I kept one as a keepsake of my home.
Her amazing instinct was demonstrated in her recommendations of when to list, how to show and what price the listing should be. Her confidence, instinct and savviness lead to setting an aggressive list price that was surpassed by the final accepted offer. She had a total read of the sellers market.
It was Beth's drive that made her take on my home sale and execute it with amazing dedication and professionalism.
I put my trust in Beth and I was thrilled with the results. I have and will continue to recommend her to my friends and colleagues. – Cathy Fountas
“After immigrating from the UK, my partner and I decided to settle and purchase a new home in Victoria. Beth Hayhurst came highly recommended and our initial meeting made us even more excited about our search. Her attentive, proficient and friendly manner gave us confidence that, together, we would find the ideal property. Her structured approach to sourcing our property allowed the entire process to run smoothly. Within days, Beth had arranged a number of viewings which gave us a keen understanding of the market and, after viewing the ideal property, our offer was accepted. Beth worked tirelessly on our behalf and kept us fully informed on the progress of the sale. Beth was always available to answer our many queries and, without exception, had our best interests at heart. – Allan Holdswoth
“When I decided to sell my much loved house, Beth was able to quickly capture the essence of the property and market it beautifully. Three days after listing the house was sold, and for many thousands over asking price.
Working with Beth was an amazing experience. From her calm and effortless grace, integrity, professionalism and truly unique vision, she quickly gained my trust, and provided an extraordinary result." -Wendy Lens
“Beth went above and beyond the call of duty. I felt I was much more than just a client to her and throughout the experience, she seemed more like a trusted partner than a real estate agent. She spent countless hours updating me daily on market activity and other pertinent information that eventually led to a seamless transaction. Beth's natural energy and professional dedication made for not only a positive experience but a successful one as well. I just couldn't have done it without her - and couldn't recommend her more highly." - Wesley Barrett
“Beth Hayhurst is a realtor who truly cares about her clients. Beth always goes that extra mile through extensive research, creative marketing strategies and client care to help sell her clients existing properties. Her creative eye and attention to detail and style helps to transforms her client's homes into beautifully staged homes showcasing the properties unique and distinctive characteristics.” - Jen Steele
“The decision to sell our family home was an emotional one. I did not know where to start in terms of getting the house ready, understanding the process for showings and exactly what selling entailed.
I knew Beth professionally as a portrait and lifestyle photographer. I knew she was successful, very professional and had a tremendous amount of integrity. This background is a huge asset to her profession in real estate. Not only did she suggest excellent, budget friendly updates to our home, but also she captured the beauty of our home in the best light to show it off, she went above and beyond the call of a regular relator and created a new level of appeal to our house. The video and brochure she created speaks for itself. Her marketing and writing skills are exceptional as is her social media presence.
Beth was friendly and available. She always showed up early to make sure the house was ready for a showing, sometimes bringing fresh flowers from her garden to brighten up a bedroom or living area.
Her list pricing was spot on, allowing our house to sell quickly and within 97% of it's listing price.
Likewise when we were in the market for a new house, Beth kept her ear to the ground and informed us of any properties' for sale, but she also used her extensive network of professionals and friends to give us the lead on properties that weren’t yet on the market. She was courteous and professional. She did her due diligence in checking on issues around oil tanks, variances, titles, and all the details I knew little about, or didn't even know where to find out about. When it came time to put an offer in, we were confident that our best interests were being looked after with Beth successfully negotiating the purchase. It went smoothly and without a hitch or surprise.” – Barb & Ian C
“Beth . . . I am so incredibly happy to be working with you again. It seems every time I want to do a make over of the image of a company or charity your creative talent is woven into the successful repositioning of the enterprise. Thank you for sharing your gift. Thousands of children will benefit.” - Joe Canavan (CEO Children’s Aid Foundation), Toronto

“Beth is a smart, savvy and honest business woman whom I've known for 25 years. I highly recommend engaging her for any real estate needs - I can't imagine there's a harder working real estate agent out there.” - Ann Gallery, President High View Communications, Vancouver
