What real estate clients say

These are reviews of the Flaherty Team's real estate service, not reviews from On The Ridge residents.

★★★★★

“I couldn't believe how fast my home sold at a time when other homes were sitting on the market. Kevin got mine sold quickly and at a price that was top dollar and even more than I expected. His video narrated VR animated on line showing gave my home amazing exposure and reduced unnecessary showings. Kevin was a pleasure to deal with. He was always patient and kept me informed every step of the way. I highly recommend his innovative approach.”

Joanne H
★★★★★

“I sold my home with Kevin at the peak of the market, thanks to his strategic advice. He recommended timing that allowed me to sell high and wait for the correction. His innovative video-narrated VR animated online showing showcased my home virtually, so it sold quickly, even before I decluttered. Now, as the market corrected, I’m buying my dream home with the savings. Kevin’s expertise made all the difference!”

Bailey
★★★★★

“I recently purchased and sold a house, all through Kevin Flaherty Home Selling System Team. I was very impressed with the way Kevin operates. He is very efficient, very professional, and he and his great team know to how sell a house. My house was sold in 4 days , with 17 showings and 7 offers for $50,000 over my asking when other homes for sale in my area and price range have been sitting for 6 months to a year. He does not waste any time and in my opinion, Kevin and his team are second to none when it comes to marketing homes. With the online showing technology they use, I believe my home was exposed faster and to more people. I would highly recommend Kevin and this team.”

What ongoing costs should I confirm?

Confirm property taxes, utilities, insurance, financing, repairs, replacements, landscaping and exterior upkeep for the exact property. Do not rely on another home's costs.

Are there condominium fees at On The Ridge?

On The Ridge uses conventional freehold rather than condominium ownership. Still confirm whether the exact property has any private-road, shared-service, maintenance, encroachment or contractual obligation.

Do not assume a maintenance-free package. Conventional freehold owners are generally responsible for their property, but title, easements, agreements and property-specific documents control every obligation.

A builder-direct purchase uses the builder's agreement, addenda, deposits, adjustments, warranty and closing process. An owner resale uses a property-specific resale agreement, title review, inspection and negotiated closing terms.

No universal accessibility standard is established. Inspect steps, thresholds, door widths, bathrooms, bedroom location, parking, grades and renovation potential for the exact home.

How do I coordinate buying here with selling my current home?

Confirm the target property's transaction type, costs, condition and closing requirements, obtain legal and financial advice, prepare the current home and align the purchase, sale and moving dates.
