	We first met Harris over two years ago while looking for properties in Richmond area as immigrants in the country. During that first and only meeting, we knew something special about his personality as a realtor and kept in contact by subscribing to his newsletters. Fast forward in today’s real estate environment and we’ve continued our search to find a good house value with the right character. We are very glad that we were able to have the services of Harris and represent us in navigating such hot Vancouver market. He was a tremendous help for being truthful with his professional opinion, preparedness during our appointments, and availability even with our busy schedules. Harris was an asset especially in our case where we had to compete with another offer for the property we are interested in. Without his assistance, we may have not been able to purchase a house that we can call home. It’s true that there is a lot of house listing in today’s economy but finding the needle in a haystack makes the house buying a better experience when you have somebody like Harris to help you out. It was a great experience having him as our realtor and definitely recommends his services to anyone trying to purchase, or sell their property.

	As first time home buyers we were naturally nervous about the process of buying a home. After hiring Harris as our realtor everything became much clearer. He is an excellent communicator and had a keen sense of what our wants and needs were. He was always available to answer our questions and worked relentlessly on our behalf when we put in our first offer. There were multiple offers and he got ours accepted that day, which was the Easter Sunday. I can confidently say that without Harris' expertise, non-stop efforts and work ethic, we would not have gotten our home. On his website he says that he is a skilled negotiator and he is. Harris loves what he does and it shows. Thank you, Harris, for everything. You have done exceptional work for us and we really appreciate your efforts.

	Harris is one of a kind…brilliant. Four weeks ago a chance web search delivered Harris First. Looking for my first investment property Harris made the experience a delight. He worked tirelessly to make appointments and fought for times to suit my schedule; he was always at the meeting point on time and before me. This part of his service takes any stress out of the process. His knowledge of the area is of a high standard along with his knowledge of Real Estate. His enthusiasm and energy plus an understanding of my needs quickly revealed properties that were of real interest, we had very little wasted viewings. Asked questions to gain information on my needs, took time to discuss options, and took note of our reactions. Harris is Open in approach, honest and trustworthy. In my search, Harris First went the extra mile for me. H KP Home Investor McLennan North Richmond, BC ( see available properties)
	Harris is a great Realtor. He is honest and he really helps you making the best decision, when buying your first home. He is very patient, not pushy to try and make a sale. He answers all your questions with great knowledge. He is reliable and always on time. I would definitely recommend him to others. Harris helped us find a home – and he will help you too, even if it takes a long time, he will help! I know others would stop replying you after a couple months. Harris is funny and great person to work with. Thanks Harris for all your hard work!!

	Harris is highly professional, provided us with a very good service, very accommodating. His knowledge of Real Estate is good, also being familiar with our Area of interest, the Hastings area of Vancouver East. We were pleased to observe that he was always available; he listened, understood and respected our needs and feelings. Harris First is very enthusiastic, has lots of positive energy, day and night. We appreciated his negotiating skills, since we stayed within our original budget, and did not spend a dollar over what we were ready to pay. We would sure refer Harris First to anyone of our Family and Friends. At the end of the day, they are right… if it’s marketed right, you’ll buy it, but if the service and passion is real, you’ll feel it. We feel Harris is someone that can be trusted.

	Harris is a knowledgeable, dependable, with excellent communication skills Real Estate agent. He gets quickly up to speed and rapidly develops real good relationships with the other agents. Last but not least, he is always available, with valuable information on hand. Our expectations were exceeded. Thanks to Harris our transaction was efficient, fast and smooth, all in a competing offers situation – against four other Realtors trying to get the same ½ Duplex in Burnaby for their clients. More than anytime, we realized that in such cases, having the right Real Estate agent fighting for you is essential. Harris thinks as an accountant. However, his negotiating skills have nothing to do with the accounting profession. Harris delivered. We got the house we wanted, under the terms we wanted. This is someone you can trust. Thank you, Harris!

	As an immigrant family from China, having a house of your own means taking roots in this foreign country. Under normal circumstances, people would find an agent that has the same cultural background as each other, in order to communicate successfully.

Therefore we placed all faith on him being an exceptional agent.

	My family was facing a real crisis. We had to move in two weeks with no place to go to. Money was tight, and so were our needs. Out of sheer luck I happened to see Harris First sells the kind of Real Estate we want at the right price range, on the internet. I called him, and in less than two hours he found something for us. We had met the needs of another seller, and we bought from them. Harris was so sensitive to both situations. He is someone you can trust. We had other agents who kept showing us things out of our price range. It was a miracle Harris listened, understood and responded to all of our conditions. He fought all the way for us to get the best price and situation for our new apartment. I would recommend him to anyone I care about. Thank you Harris Jennifer Chung - 3371 SPRINGFIELD Drive, Richmond, BC ( see available properties)
	I met Harris when I was making an appointment to see an apartment in Richmond. He was very interested to understand my needs, and help me find a great place at an acceptable price. Harris seemed to be knowledgeable and available to help me in my endeavour, so I proposed him to be my realtor. He accepted with pleasure, and that is how we started our very lucrative relation. Harris is a professional, competent and tenacious person, who dedicates his entire time and resources to his clients. He helps and eases all the imminent and unavoidable issues. I have never had to ask Harris about what was to be done, because he was always ready to guide me through the process. Harris proactively took care of everything starting from the appropriate research profile, scheduling visits in coordination with my availability, directing me to find a great mortgage broker and the best rates on the market, and nevertheless to find a good Real Estate Lawyer so I can have peace of mind with the acquisition. Harris never diminished his optimism and energy level during the whole process. When I felt exhausted, stressed and frustrated, Harris gave me the space to breath and redirected me on new paths. This strategy helped me to regroup and find the apartment of my dreams shortly. The apartment is not only a great place but also an excellent investment. Harris took the negotiations personally and saved me thousands of dollars. I am extremely satisfied with Harris’s service and I recommend him to anybody who is buying or selling a property.

	Dear, Harris. First of all, we would like to express our appreciation for all of your hard work and help to purchase our very first home in Canada. We were nervous at the beginning, and felt nothing would change our idea of staying around the Marpole Area, if we didn’t meet you. However, your honest and friendly character gave us a great sense of security that showed we were in a right place. Hiro has been dreaming of purchasing his own property for a long time, but he had almost given up his desire because of our situation, being quite depressed about working so hard for paying our rent which does not become his profit in his lifetime. You guided us through purchasing our condo step by step with your knowledge, experience, and the most prompt service we had ever received. We believe that we not only got the best condo for us but also found the most reliable realtor! Best regards Hirotaka & Takako Nakai - 7031 BLUNDELL RD , Richmond, BC ( see available properties)
	We would like to recommend Harris as a Buyer’s Agent. Throughout the process he was very helpful and professional. He was patient, knowledgeable and there for us every step of the way. Harris took the time to understand what we were looking for, and worked hard to show us all of the homes we requested to see, and provided good advice at our pace. He is an excellent closer, and consequently, we purchased the home we wanted at the price we wanted to pay. We felt like we could trust his opinions, and appreciated the room he gave us in the decision-making process. Harris made himself available at all times to meet our busy and varied schedule – it felt like he spent all of his time on our home pursuit, despite having a number of different clients. The best thing about his service, though, is that he didn’t JUST help us in the past – he continues to be there – even after the deal has been signed. Harris, thank you for all of your continued effort! A.E. and D.R. - 9133 Hemlock Drive, Richmond, BC ( see available properties)
	We hired Harris to sell our Minoru Boulevard condo in Richmond . He was very professional and thorough, covering all aspects, especially the legal aspects of the contracts. He proved to be a hard working Realtor that won our trust and got us an exceptional deal in a tough market… Highest price ever [so far] in the Cypress Pointe complex. He put in dedication, motivation and effort to sell our property in a timely frame and manner. Harris gave us many useful suggestions and tips that helped us to save money and possible headaches. We appreciate the openness and the honesty that he puts in his business. Harris First, this is a way to go! Alex Grishin – 7531 Minoru Blvd. Richmond , BC ( see available properties)
