Real experiences from real people who trusted me with their journey
"As first-time home buyers, we couldn't have asked for a better realtor than Anna Pretto. She was always quick to respond to our questions and went above and beyond to guide us through every step of the process. What could have been a stressful and overwhelming experience ended up feeling smooth and straightforward — Anna truly made our home-buying journey seem like a cakewalk."
"Anna Pretto is a superb real estate agent. I was in Penticton and Anna arranged everything for me in Saanichton. She went so above and beyond in making the purchase stress free. I'm not exaggerating, Anna recommended electricians, plumbers and an insurance company. They are all top notch. Anna did work on the weekends and early mornings. She even arranged to have someone come pick up a mattress that the seller had left. WOW."
"We just love Anna she made it all so easy and hassle free, felt like she had our backs at every turn, and we would highly recommend her. She went above and beyond in so many ways for us."
"From the second we connected with Anna Pretto, we were impressed! We were relocating from the mainland to the island. We had no idea what area we wanted to be in, but she was super accommodating to show us wherever we wanted to go. It's one thing to have a good realtor to tend to your needs, it's another when they are full on involved with you, excited for you, bring you a house warming gift and call you their friends! We didn't just have the best realtor, we gained a new friend on the island!"
The right time to downsize is when you're ready—not rushed. Let me show you why planning ahead gives you the advantage.
With advanced planning, you'll have time to explore every neighbourhood and discover the home that truly fits your lifestyle—not just settle for what's available in a rush.
Early preparation means strategic timing. I'll help you position your current home to sell at its peak value while securing your next property before the market shifts.
My deep local network gives you exclusive access to properties before they hit the public market. Many of the best downsizing homes never even get listed online.
Planning ahead removes the pressure. You'll move on your timeline, organize thoughtfully, and transition smoothly without the anxiety of rushed decisions.
I don't just access market data—I am the market data. I can tell you why homes sell above asking because I know what's coming to each neighbourhood before it's public.
You're not getting a generic agent—you're getting someone who responds before your coffee cools, knows every corner of the Island, and treats you like family.
