"They are knowledgeable, welcoming, kind and attentive. Exactly what is needed in this very competitive property market."

Chrissy and Paolo were invaluable to Matt and I this season when we decided to take the plunge and seek out a new home to fit our family's changing needs during the current covid-19 pandemic. They advised us on best money spent renovating/updating before listing our home and put us in touch with really great contractors for both our old and new homes who were working during COVID-19.And they even found us movers when we wanted to close quickly on the new house.A house that Chrissy found for us and made sure we were the first offer in on.Chrissy called and got us in to see homes as soon as potentials were available and she was incredibly patient with our requirements... all of which were met in the house she found for us.Chrissy and Paolo attended an almost three hour inspection of our new home and had invaluable advice about some changes we could make in the future.We both felt comfortable and respected by Chrissy and recommend her and Paolo highly to anyone looking for or selling a home in Ottawa. They are knowledgeable, welcoming, kind and attentive. Exactly what is needed in this very competitive property market. Thank you to both of you! You are a great team.

"Chrissy and Paolo were a great team and achieved a wonderful result for me. My house sold over the listing price in one week."

I met with three real estate agent before selling my house and Chrissy was one of them. She impressed me right away with her confident and extensive understanding of the Beaverbrook Kanata market. I had some questions about other houses for sale in he area and she gave me a synopsis of each and an explanation of why each house achieved a particular price. I chose her and was very thankful that I did. She had great advice for the time of year we should list, she arranged a home inspector to evaluate the house and give a report, she arranged for home stagers to spend a few hours at the house and give us a report and recommendations on how the house should be prepared for sale, she recommended professionals including a fireplace inspector to insure that all was up to code before the listing.

The listing itself included very professional photographs and a "3 dimensional Tour" of the house all using the latest technology. Chrissy was responsive, a pleasure to deal with, had great advice and is an expert in her field. Chrissy and Paolo were a great team and achieved a wonderful result for me. My house sold over the listing price in one week.

"Chrissy Hollands is a superior real estate agent in every sense (...) If you are looking for an ethical, knowledgeable, and committed real estate agent, Chrissy Hollands should be your choice!"

Chrissy Hollands is a superior real estate agent in every sense.

My history with her involved many factors complicating my decision to sell my house. She listened with sympathy to my story checking in as required with no pressure to sell. When I was ready, her recommendations on how to ready the house were sound, practical, and timely. She ensured details that I had not thought of were considered (pros and cons), was compassionate to my circumstances and supportive during my journey despite everything. "Everything" included my situation (emotional at times) as well as the commencement of the COVID-19 pandemic which was to radically change the real estate experience.Following up after the house sale(at a price beyond asking), she helped me manage the long time frame between selling and closing dates with regular updates and encouraging market trends as everything crashed in response to the pandemic "stay inside" provincial direction.

If you are looking for an ethical, knowledgeable, and committed real estate agent, Chrissy Hollands should be your choice!

"We were extremely happy with her advice and results throughout the process, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell property in the Ottawa area."

When we started thinking about selling our house, I immediately thought of Chrissy Hollands, whom I had met through Kanata Theatre. I found her to be warm and friendly with everyone, as well as being professional and prepared, both at the theatre and in her work. We were extremely happy with her advice and results throughout the process, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell property in the Ottawa area.

"There are no two finer agents/brokers in the city than Chrissy and Paolo."

There are no two finer agents/brokers in the city than Chrissy and Paolo. They are so much more than exceptional representatives of the real estate world that is sometimes maligned; they are helpful, knowledgeable and absolutely live the promise of a lifetime commitment to their clients. At every opportunity I sing the praises of Chrissy and Paolo and encourage anyone and everyone I know to work with them if they want the best experience in buying or selling - and anything with which they can help thereafter. Simply the best. My only regret is that I've left Ottawa now and I won't have them to help me with any of my real estate needs - and I truly feel as though I've left behind two very dear friends.
