Testimonials

Our home in Carmel, California, just sold a few days ago. We were lucky to have been represented by the Canning Properties team and we are so glad that we made the decision to choose Nic Canning as our realtor. Nic, in addition to being there for showings, was always available to listen to any questions/concerns we had during this journey. He also clearly addressed everything that we brought up during a conversation. We felt free to call him at any time, and if he was at another meeting, we could expect an immediate call back. He advised us accurately on pricing, prepared a list of comparable homes in the area, made useful suggestions for marketing, and shared his knowledge of the million little things that need to be done to ensure a quick and successful sale. We trusted him completely to point us in the right direction. The process was illuminating for us, because initially our deep…

He also clearly addressed everything that we brought up during a conversation. We felt free to call him at any time, and if he was at another meeting, we could expect an immediate call back. He advised us accurately on pricing, prepared a list of comparable homes in the area, made useful suggestions for marketing, and shared his knowledge of the million little things that need to be done to ensure a quick and successful sale. We trusted him completely to point us in the right direction. The process was illuminating for us, because initially our deep attachment for the home clouded our judgement. Nic patiently walked through all of it with us, and ensured we made practical and wise decisions. We never felt pressured in any way and the journey evolved naturally and gracefully. Thank you, Nic, for your kindness, professional expertise, and seeing us through the unfolding of it all. Dave and Seth Reese, who also participated in showing our home, were thorough and prompt in dealing with any of the issues that came up, and went beyond the call of duty. In addition, the photographer and videographers used by the Canning team were truly accomplished artists. We absolutely loved their engaging, mesmerizing video, and the beautiful , classy photos that showcased our home. We are truly thankful all for the hard work and expertise put into this process by the Canning Properties team..When I look back, I see that everything, under the guidance of Nic (and the one hundred percent support of Dave Reese, Seth Reese, Ellen Armstrong, Jessica Canning, Paige Colijin, Caroline Garcia, Kelly Savukinas and others behind the scenes) was accomplished quickly as the team worked as one seamless whole. They were always one step ahead of what was necessary and addressed any potential hurdles/issues even before we could think of them. We witnessed first hand, the simplicity and ease with which they all worked together and made the sale happen. All showings were carried out diligently, and always with one member of the team onsite. We felt safe inviting anyone into our home for showings, knowing it was on their watch. In addition, all documents were prepared by them, and eventually the sale of our home was completed flawlessly and smoothly. I can see clearly why Canning Properties is listed as the top performing realtor group in the area ..... honestly, that's why we chose them in the first place! We are so glad we made that decision.I have given them a Five star rating and would have loved to give them a Five star Plus if I could. Thank you!

The Monterey peninsula is filled with people hanging out their 'real estate sales' shingle, but what do you actually get with the average agent? With the Canning team, you get an outstanding group of professionals dedicated to listening to your housing goals and needs and then turning them into real-world practical results. Nic and the team of Spiro Pettas and Ellen Armstrong made our search for a home absolutely effortless and once the time came to buy that perfect property they all showed up with an incredible depth of knowledge about the market, trends and business acumen. Their long-time insider knowledge of this area is an invaluable asset when looking to buy or sell a property. Their negotiating skills come from a place of good solid business techniques backed up by extensive research so you are always ahead of the curve. Our needs were rather unique, and in a market that has been as challenging as this one has become over the last few years, that meant a lot of patience on the part of the entire Canning team, which they displayed with absolute perfection. I cannot recommend the entire Canning team highly enough. You will find yourself in the most capable of hands. Five Stars!!

Canning Properties Group represented us as buyers when we bought our home in Otter Cove in Carmel Highlands, and were extremely knowledgeable, service minded and helpful in the process. We must have come down at least 5 times to spend most of a day looking at properties and each time they spent hours with us patiently showing us everything that was for sale, never rushing us or pushing us to do anything we were not comfortable with. Once we found the place we wanted to buy they were great in helping us negotiate a good (and fair) price, and invaluable when it came to guiding us though due diligence and helping us understand all aspects of the house we were buying. We have now owned our Carmel place for almost a year, and they are still there for us when we have problems or questions, going well beyond what you would expected anyone to do. We have not only found a great realtor I would b…
