" Camelia approached us in early October requesting whether we would be interested in selling our home. At the time, the thought hadn’t even crossed our mind as this has been our family home for over 43 years. Many, many wonderful memories have been shared in this home. After having numerous family discussions, we thought it would be in our best interest to sell our home and buy a new home in close proximity to our children and grandchildren. We met with Camelia and after an evening of speaking with her, we felt a connection and decided to hire Camelia as our real estate agent. Keep in mind….we have had numerous realtors knock on our door to sell our house. Camelia wasn’t only interested in selling our home and making a commission. She truly cared about how much our current home meant to us and what we were looking for in terms of buying. She began by sending us emails of new properties and within a week she found us our beautiful new home. Now came the hard part….letting go of our current house. The sign went up for sale and within a couple of days we had our first open house. She went above and beyond to create the most traffic for the open house, from hiring a professional photographer/videographer to showcase our home to preparing brochures as handouts for the many, many people that visited the open house. She kept us apprised of everything which we felt was really important. She answered our many questions and we never felt rushed with her answers. Our home sold in less than 2 weeks all because of Camelia. Her professionalism, motivation and hard work throughout the whole process demonstrated all of her wonderful qualities. I would, without any hesitation, recommend Camelia to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. "

- MR.VIRIATO & MRS. BATISTA

" Hi Camelia, We just want to express our thanks for the good job you have done selling our house. We talked to quite a few real estate agents before we chose you, and we think that was the smartest and luckiest choice we made for our house, Our Burnaby house is an irregular shaped corner lot, with a creek running behind the house which made it harder to sell, especially in such a slow market: hardly any houses were sold during this time. We appreciate all the hard work you have done. Just want to let you know a couple of things that we were so impressed with: 1. We like the way you prepared the house for listing. You did a thorough cleaning of the house and did all the staging to make it look more appealing to customers. 2. You worked hard to promote the house, did lots of open house and showings, without disturbing the tenants. 3. You kept us in the loop, let us know the results of open houses and personal house showing right away, and give us a weekly update of what’s going on with the house and market, which we appreciate a lot. 4.We also like that you treated the house like your own. Since we had moved out of the house and lived quite far away, it was comforting that you take care of it so well for us. Thanks a lot for your professional attitude and hard work. Of all the agents we have dealt with during the years, we have to say you are best. "

" Camelia helped us with the sale of 3 properties. I met Camelia 4 years ago when she was doing an open house in my condo building. I was wanting to sell my condo but was worried that I would have to do too much work to make it saleable. She assured me that I didn't have to do a thing and that she would stage it appropriately. After one weekend of open houses, I received multiple offers and it sold for over the asking price. She also assisted in the purchase of our townhouse after selling the condo. Earlier this year, we hired Camelia to sell my mother-in-law's townhome and that too sold very quickly and over the asking price. Most recently, my husband and I purchased a home on Vancouver Island so we hired Camelia to sell our townhouse. Because of Covid, we could not have an open house but their were multiple appointments and showings of our town house. Once again, our home sold very quickly and over the asking price. I highly recommend Camelia. She is knowledgeable, honest and forthright. "

- MARIA HANSEN

" We had to go through 4 real estate agents until we found Camelia, so you can tell that we were very specific about what we expect as service from a realtor and Camelia did not disappoint. From the moment we met her she was on the case 24/7 and was very skilled in managing our expectations and also setting out the game plan that enabled us to finally purchase a home. Put it this way before we met Camelia we had put in 4 offers and lost all of them. Within 2 weeks of meeting Camelia, we put in 2 offers and both were accepted, she definitely knows how's deal and negotiate. Camelia is the terrier that you want by your side -- she will keep on nipping away at the opponent's feet until success. Opponent!!, Yes, I use this term because it is a war buying a property in Vancouver and Camelia is your GPS guiding you through the minefields. I don't usually write reviews, but I feel obligated by the service provided by Camelia to write this review. When I first met Camelia she introduced herself as one of the top 5 realtors in Canada and from my experience, I have no reason to doubt her. She comes highly recommended by me! "

" We are writing this letter to acknowledge Camelia Manea as a Realtor who does her job with passion. Since we met to discuss the sale of our property, Camelia not only demonstrated professionalism and a high etiquette, but she made her passion so obvious that we had great confidence in the process of selling the apartment. Camelia has a radiant personality and she loves to encourage her clients. The moment she came to our place she made very nice comments about it, and that gave us great hope. She suggested some changes/improvements and she took the time and effort to do it for us. She did a great job, and we are very grateful for her designing/staging skills and her hardworking and friendly personality. Camelia Manea is very knowledgeable. She informed us about other properties which were sold in our area, and explained to us with which price will be good to start the process. She also explained very clearly what are the chances, statistically, of selling before summer starts, and what will happen later if we do not sell it till then. She informed us about all the options we have, and the ones we will have later on. She has been very objectives and realistic, yet being positive and optimistic about selling our apartment at a good price, close to our desire. Camelia Manea does everything beyond her duty as a Realtor. She has been very thoughtful towards us, and also towards those who were interested in buying. She made herself available for 2 Open houses in two consequent weekends, and every time someone requested to see the apartment she made sure we have it available. Also, she did not want to have all these request become a burden for us, so when she found out that only the clients with cash will be accepted in our case she made sure those interested knew that. Therefore, the lasts visits came from those who were indeed interested and could have become highly potential buyers. This reduced the traffic to our apartment so we did not feel overwhelmed. We appreciated her thoughtfulness and care. Camelia Manea is very skilled in her conversations, she made sure our opinions were clearly expressed, and that our wishes regarding the selling process would be followed through thoroughly. She used her expertise to help us decide best, and choose the best selling price. In the end we sold the apartment at a very good price, very close to our asking. We will always appreciate her help and positive attitude and we will gladly recommend her to other people who would like to sell their property. We wish her success and we have confidence she will continue to be very successful. "

She brings years of experience, a high level of professionalism and expertise to her work- I really appreciated how patiently and skillfully she navigated the process, put together an offer at light speed, helped me understand what it means to own in a strata and connected me to great professionals in her network so I could set up insurance, mortgage and closing easily.

" We are most pleased with the help we received from our realtor, Camelia, in listing and selling our house. With amazing energy and desire to help, Camelia listed and sold the house within a few days. She organized and timed everything to create the most traffic, bring most people to the open house, and attract the most interest from buyers, such that she created an environment of competition and multiple offers. It only took few days from first contacting Camelia to having the house sold, and we are extremely pleased with the results, as well as the fact that she obtained the sell price we wanted. We are extremely pleased with the help and services of Camelia. "

" Camelia is a wonderfully compassionate and personable person when dealing with her clients.   She accentuates a warm and caring attitude when approaching either the seller or buyer's business and shows a mature, positive and knowledgeable acumen.  Camelia attends to questions right away and doesn't leave the client waiting for answers to matters that are important to them.   I have used her to help both my mother and mother-in-law, sell their homes and get into new residences.   There was no pressure and she was always respectful and kind.   I would recommend her to anyone and everyone that needs expertise when selling or purchasing homes.

- WINNIE MORRIES

" Buying a house is among the best decisions someone will ever make through their whole life but because of the challenges the real estate market faces these days buying a home has become one of the most difficult decisions you have to make these days. That is why having a dedicated real estate agent it really makes a difference! Having you as our real estate agent it felt like we have a “Good Samaritan” on our side who was trying to help us accomplish what we really wanted. You were very involved in the whole process, coming with us to see various places, gathering information to help us make an informed and educated decision, answering within minutes to any inquires we have had and so on. Your professionalism and knowledge of the current housing market provided us with the tools we needed to feel comfortable in the buying process. Your negotiation skills were imperative to helping us get what we wanted. It feels like at the end of the process of buying a new home we didn’t end up only with a new home, we ended up making new friend, who happens to be Camelia, our real estate agent! "

- MANUELA & SORIN BALAS COROIU

" Our townhome took a little time to sell because of the area. Camelia did such a wonderful job and worked very hard the whole time it was on the market. She did an amazing job with posting a perfect listing and had open houses every weekend and made herself available whenever someone wanted to view our home. She is a fabulous, bright and caring person who is very passionate about her job. I would highly recommend Camelia to anyone who is buying or selling a home. Thank you Camelia! "

- JENNA BREWER & TYLER THOMAS TRABOULAY

" Camelia sold our house within a week – over asking price! We saw competing homes sit on the market (some even reduced their price) while ours sold immediately. We’ve wanted to sell for several years, but were afraid of not getting full value. Since we had tenants, we also worried about having it sit unoccupied for an extended period of time without revenue. We had tried unsuccessfully to sell the house in the past, thinking a high asking price would get us a high selling price. This time around we had Camelia, who (within hours of contacting her) studied the market, and had a plan for selling our house. We were confident in her strategy, especially her ability to list it at the right price. Camelia took care of every detail, and got the job done with almost no stress for us. She gave us great advice in every regard and knew exactly what it took to get full value for our home. We couldn’t be happier with her professionalism and knowledge. She really cares for her clients, and works very hard on your behalf at every step of the process. You will be in good hands if you trust Camelia to sell your home. "

- JOHN & MARLENE LAWRENCE

" I’m writing to express my sincere gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Camelia. Recently I sold and bought another condo. Buying your home at any age and in any market is a journey that can be smooth or stressful. It all depends of your real estate agent! I was lucky, I picked the right one. Her personality, professionalism, attention to details, responsiveness and her ability to close the deal was outstanding. Her real estate expertise was invaluable, the perfect balance between tough and charming. Camelia remained calm and confident to all of the bumps we encounter along the way which helped me to stay positive through the entire process and we won. I highly recommend Camelia to anyone seeking a reliable and trustworthy real estate agent that will make your real estate journey feel like a breeze. "

- CAMI MEZO

" We are writing to express our complete satisfaction with Camelia Manea as our Realtor. Throughout the entire process Camelia was professional, conscientious, and motivated. We greatly appreciate her honesty and patience throughout the process. We always felt as though we were her only client. Initially we were uncertain of the asking price, but Camelia diligently checked multiple sources to verify that our asking price was accurate; consequently, we sold our home for the price we wanted. Camelia’s knowledge, skills and experience in the Burnaby Hospital area (our home’s location) was invaluable as she specializes solely in this area. Her intimate knowledge of the area is more than the average realtor as she lives and works in this community. Camelia’s use of other marketing tools other than the traditional realtor was confirmed by how many groups of buyers who came to the open houses and numerous showings during our contract period. The best aspect of working with Camelia was her active communication which took place during the marketing process. We never had to call or ask what progress had been made on any offers or the final sale of our home. We would be delighted to answer any specific questions regarding Camelia’s performance. — Mr. and Mrs. Leffler "

" My wife and I first met Camelia Manea while we were checking out potential places for relocation. We went to an Open House that she was presenting and were impressed by her knowledge of the condo building and the neighborhood surrounding it. While we chose not to relocate at that time, when it finally came time to sell we gave Camelia a call. From the moment she came in for the estimate to the time it came to accept an offer, Camelia went "above and beyond" in the staging of our home so that it would be impressive to the many people who came for a look. She immediately notified other realtors and agents of the availability of our home. The photographs and brochure, as well as the 360 degree "tour" that she put together made us want to buy it ourselves! She was working for US. She had ready answers to all of our questions. She gave us plenty of notice to be out of our home so that other agents could bring their clients in for a look. We were never "left in the dark" as to the reactions of potential buyers. 2 Open Houses and many individual showings led to an offer at our price point! Her enthusiasm throughout the entire process meant that we had no anxious moments .By the time we sold, we had decided to leave the Lower Mainland and live elsewhere. Camelia put us in touch with an agent who she trusted. That agent worked exclusively for us --- taking us to 26 homes in 5 days - after which we made an accepted offer on a beautiful home! We appreciate the hard work and passion that Camelia brought when she took us on as a client. Having looked at many homes recently, we can say without equivocation that she wants her clients' homes to be sold quickly and at or above the suggested price point. While it appeared to us in a lot of cases that some agents don't seem to have their clients' interests in mind (little or no prep for presentation, for example), Camelia never made it seem like she was working for anyone other than us. We would highly recommend Camelia Manea to anyone wanting to sell their own property. "
