Stan is a great agent. We know the local market quite well, and I have some real estate background but Stan is great at enhancing our knowledge, he sources and provides timely and accurate data and analysis both proactively and on numerous requests. He is an excellent communicator, very diplomatic yet still able to make relevant points and coach us through a real estate investment decision and sales process. This can be a challenge as my wife and I are both strongly opinionated and often of differing perspective, and, combined we've know Stan on a personal friendship level for almost 20 years. However his professionalism, yet down to earth approach makes the process more rationale. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Stan to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate.

Stan was incredibly thorough and professional. We have dealt with realtors before and felt that he really went above and beyond for us. Some details we were not paying attention to but he made sure anything and everything was carefully considered. Honestly can't thank him enough. He gave us confidence that we had looked at all possibilities and concerns before purchase.

I want to thank this wonderful person and great realtor, Stan Van Woerkens. He is professional and knowledgable, he know the neighbourhoods of Vancouver along with their intricate differences and most of all he understands his client's needs. He can be trusted and relied upon. It was very great to work with him for this property purchase.

Stan was really great throughout the entire process, he provided his valuable contacts for different stages of the property purchase and made sure we were on track every step of the way. He was kind and understanding of our situation, and very knowledgable about the neighbourhoods and houses which helped us make the final decision. Would definitely use him again.

To know fault of Stan Van Woerkens I'm very very late in writing this review. I totally recommend Stan Van Woerkens as a top professorial realtor. Very approachable in all aspects or situations in selling our Parents home as a estate sale. Stan went above and beyond to work with all family members in involved in the will and the selling of our ( parents home) as mentioned in the will (estate). Was able to deal with all issues that arose in which were many. Stan had the ability to work with both sides when times got tough and be able to make rational decisions were both sides understood and accept. Stan was there for all of us and our( parents) who had passed.
Stan's presentation of the estate home was second to none. It was the most beautiful presentation of the house and area in which is was located in. Stan took the time and effort to make it top notch.....We can't say enough for all the devoted time and effort that Stan had given us in every way. We were no.#1 in all aspects of Stan's work....I can't say enough about Stan and his professionalism, he really goes out and beyond for family and his clients and then some.....
Stan has the ability to work with family, lawyers and clients and clients estates and making sure all parties are treated equal and not one sided. Stan Van Woerkens is the realtor that we highly recommend.

Stan was extremely professional, attending all meetings, opens and showings in person. His focus was always to obtain the best results for us. He was always available when we needed to discuss anything. He made suggestions where needed, and presented all of the options, for us to make the best decision. We would have no problem in recommending Stan, and using him in future transactions.

Stan is an outstanding agent. It was an absolute pleasure to work with him. We didn't have to search for long before we found the place we knew would be a perfect place to call home. Stan really went to bat for us in the negotiations. We will work with him again, no questions asked. We'll also be recommending his services to others.

Stan helped us at a crucial time when we needed to sell and the market was experiencing its first of several downturns resulting from interest rate hikes. His appraisal of multiple factors that had bearing on our expectations, selling price point, strategy, follow through with every detail was first rate and included helping us repair a hot water situation that was not of our doing while we were out of town. His demeanour with all prospective buyers and his ability to separate truly interested parties from those who were simply looking or who were looking to underbid was remarkable. He came highly recommended to us after we had not been pleased with two other possible realtors. So, we would recommend him to anyone as well. He was always available by phone, email, text, or in person, a capacity and willingness that reassured and helped us manage the stressors involved in buying/selling real estate.

Stan was a really great advisor from start to finish. This was our first time selling a house after 25 years in it, so everything was New in terms of the experience. Stan was patient and thoughtful as he guided us through the process, he is very pragmatic and honest, and we trusted him implicitly. He has so much experience and knowledge that we felt we were in good hands the entire time! Even after the sale of the house he continued to assist us with the final steps and advice all the way to completion. I highly recommend Stan and will refer him to friends in a heartbeat!

Fantastic job guiding and advising us as the market slowed down. You have a sense for how people are going to react and you adjust accordingly. Your attention to detail and bulldog determination is what it took to close the deal to sell our house. I knew I wanted you to be our agent the day I met you.

Stan was an incredible asset to us as we navigated our house purchase. Being new to the Vancouver market he provided valuable insights to the real estate market, neighbourhoods and house investment value. He communicated in a timely fashion and was flexible and available when we needed to see houses. Being new to the area, he guided us on aspects of house placement that we never would have thought of like sun exposure and view which we appreciate each day in our new home. Most importantly, he helped us determine our greatest needs beyond the actual house structure and helped us find a lovely community that we are excited to be joining.

Stan is experienced and knowledgeable. We were hunting in a very hot market and he never made us feel pressured or rushed. He showed us every house that was in our search criteria and some just outside of that as well so we knew what the landscape was like. He has a good eye for quality construction yet never imposed his own taste on an impression of a home. He is confident in dealing with other realtors which is a must in the dog eat dog BC market. Overall very please and highly recommend.

Stan has successfully helped us to sell our Lynn Valley condo at a time when the market was very uncertain due to COVID-19. On top of that we had a complicated situation and Stan was incredibly patient and very attentive to our needs.
Stan is professional with a positive attitude and 'no pressure' approach. He is very easy to work with and I highly recommend his expertise.

Stan worked very hard under very difficult circumstances during the COVID19 Isolation Phase to get me the best price on the Apt I bought and for the townhouse I was selling. He also understood exactly what I was looking for in my new apartment He went well beyond what I would have expected and helped me with many aspects of preparing my townhouse for sale.

Stan was helpful throughout the purchasing process; he provided information on other recent sales/listings in the area, was very responsive whenever needed (the back-and-forth with the seller often fell on evenings and weekends) and let me know if he wasn't going to be available at any point. Stan was easy to work with via DocuSign and was quick and efficient in putting together the original offer and subsequent amendments. He fielded communications with the selling agent well and overall did a great job representing me. I have worked with 3 agents in the past - never the same one twice - but I would work with Stan again and would definitely recommend him.

Stan did his homework on what was happening in the market, was well prepared when he first met with us, and explained his analysis as to pricing and market timing. His advice on what we needed to do before listing was exceptional.
We were out of the country when we listed our property. Stan handled everything that was needed during our absence, and communicated with us frequently. The long distance handling and signing of documents digitally was greatly appreciated.
We highly recommend Stan for any real estate services.

I highly recommend Stan Van Woerkens. My own realtor let me down 2 years ago and I started working with Stan by chance.
He is patient and understood my needs in looking for a property. With my busy career he was able to continually keep me focussed on the task in hand and keep me engaged with the looking process. This was really important and particularly helpful for me.
Expert in his field , knowledgeable with clear guidance from start to completion. Always available.
Absolutely delighted with my new home. Thank you Stan!

Stan understands the north shore market, especially the Canyon Heights area, extremely well. He was able to facilitate the completion of our purchase under challenging circumstances. We were away on a 2 week vacation in Europe and, even with the time change and rental/tenant situation that required special attention, Stan made it all happen with few hiccups. Stan went above and beyond even after the handover date. We were unavailable for the move of the seller's furniture at the end of the month and Stan supervised it completely on our behalf. He has high standards in terms of customer service. I would highly recommend Stan for anyone buying or selling a home.

Stan was and still is very friendly and had no problem contacting him any time to resolve my issues which some might not even related to his scope of work but he helped me throughout the process and after. He was very consistent and serious and there were times when I gave up but he pushed me to go ahead and visit the new places which resulted in buying a place eventually.
He is on time, problem solving, informative and easy to work with. I enjoyed working with him although it didn't last long.
I don't mean to underscore Stan. It's just me that don't think there is such a thing as perfection in this world. Stan couldn't have done anything better

Stan provided an excellent real estate service throughout the entire process of buying our dream home in North Vancouver, Canada.
Lonnie and I started to look for our first home in North Vancouver nearly a year ago. We thank you so very much for all you did working with us during this time. Your patience, senses of humor, frequent communication, professionalism, dependability and realty knowledge on the Greater Vancouver area made the purchase process so much easier for us. We could not imagine going through it without your experience and care.
We met Stan through an open house while he was the listing agent. After the first few emails and phone conversations, we knew instantly that we had selected the right buyer’s agent. You demonstrate professionalism, honesty and integrity that are truly "above and beyond", rendering you truly superior in your field. Buying or selling a house can be an extremely traumatic ordeal, especially in the real estate markets in Vancouver, but you have thoroughly "de-fused" our experience and provided an entirely positive and very smooth transition.
There is no way for us to express how much we appreciate the tremendous value of working with you, and it is without hesitation we would seek you out with any future real estate needs here in Great Vancouver area. We would gladly and enthusiastically recommend you to anyone and everyone.
With sincere regards and heartfelt thanks,
Thank you Lei, Lonnie, Zak and Luna!

Like many elderly people, we felt it was time to leave our home of 60 years and go into a retirement facility, but selling was a daunting prospect. Fortunately, we met Stan van Woerkens who, with his real estate acumen, highly professional work ethic, diplomacy and integrity, found a buyer and we sold our house without experiencing any inconvenience, stress or anxiety.
Stan van Woerkens is a Real Estate Agent of the highest calibre and a 'pro' handling every aspect of the sale of our home. He is a consummate professional who guided us through the selling procedure with ease and we had full confidence in him in all times. He is a gentleman we would highly recommend.
We will be forever grateful to Stan as he covered every phase of the transaction with expertise.
Thank you Stan.

I have worked with Stan over many years and know him to be a responsible, accountable and very professional in conducting both sales and selling of properties. He is a friendly and approachable man and is sensitive to the realities of house and home and the emotional impact that this can have on clients. Stan is also a community oriented man. As a north Shore resident himself, Stan has shown great generosity in being an important financial supporter to the arts as well other grass roots efforts. He is a strong family man and a great person to have in our community.
I would not hesitate to recommend his talents to anyone and have indeed done so on many occasions.
