Bob Fraser Real Estate - Ottawa Re/Max Sales Representative

I cannot emphasize enough how great it was to work with Bob during our First-Time home buyers experience. He provided excellent advice, guidance and support along our somewhat unorthodox purchasing journey, allowing us to find the right house for us.

I worked with Bob though late 2022 and early 2023 to buy a house - visited over 23 properties until I found "the one"! He and his team were fantastic allies in the process - even through an unexpectedly complicated sale process.

Bob was our real estate agent who helped us sell 2 of our houses and purchase another. If you're looking for genuine, honest, hardworking real estate agent, Bob excels in all of these! I would highly recommend him to represent your interests, you will be in excellent hands. We also want to thank him profoundly for his patience and perseverance in finding our dream home. THANK YOU.

Thank you to Bob Fraser for helping us sell our home. He was wonderful to work with. He answered all of our questions and guided us along the way. He was very confident that our home would sell, therefore making us feel confident about it as well. I would highly recommend Bob to anyone who is looking to sell and/or buy. Thank you again Bob for all your help!

Bob phoned us in 2022 and politely asked whether we were considering selling our condo. At the time, we had no plan to do so, but when we decided in April, 2023 to put it on the market we invited him and another agent to assess the value of our home and the prospects for sale. We chose Bob mostly based on our sense of how well he understood our personal needs for readying and marketing our home. The entire process was seamless and included a well-prepared MLS listing with good quality photos, appropriate listing detail for potential buyers, preparation to respond to detailed questions and offers. Bob provided professional and pertinent advise on negotiating the sale of our home and ensuring we were fully satisfied with how it all turned out. We can unreservedly recommend Bob to list, market and help you sell your home.

Bob did an outstanding job in selling our home. Throughout the process he listened, gave great, honest advice, and remained available from start to finish. We were able to sell our home quickly and for excellent value. We would recommend Bob to anyone in the Ottawa area looking for an experienced and effective agent.

Bob was extremely helpful getting my house sold. He is knowledgable, professional, and very easy to work with. I can't recommend him strongly enough.

You really cannot ask for more in choosing Bob Fraser as your realtor. We have known Bob for many years and have successfully sold and purchased houses with him. His experience, expertise and knowledge in selling and purchasing a home is truly phenomenal. Bob goes above and beyond with his clients as he will not only listen to your wants and needs for your new home, he also helps and guides you in preparing your home to ready it for the market. Bob makes you his priority in not only researching and comparing the listings in your area (s) of choice, he also provides his advice and opinions. Bob has become our confidante and friend. He will always be our Real Estate Agent and we highly recommend his services due to his professionalism, talents and expert advice.

Bob recently sold our family home of 54 years. He is the ultimate professional! Bob is experienced, knowledgeable, and punctual. At the same time, he is flexible, empathetic and caring, ready to help in anyway he can and always ready to listen. Bob made this very emotional transition a very positive experience. Bob has sold homes for other family members and we would not hesitate to choose him again.

We highly recommend Bob Fraser for anyone in the housing market. Thanks, Bob!

I can't thank Bob enough for his help in purchasing my first home. Bob is an amazing coach for any first time home buyer - he is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, thorough, and supportive. He takes the time to ensure you understand each step of the process and felt like a true partner in navigating the market. I never felt rushed or like I was asking too many questions. He helped keep my spirits up throughout the process and ultimately helped me find the perfect home. I hope to work with Bob again in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to find their next home! Thanks, Bob!

Purchase of a Downtown Condo

I have been living in Montreal since the beginning of COVID in 2021 but previously I lived in Ottawa in a flat. I returned to Ottawa on December 21,2022, satisfied with my purchase, having bought a condominium downtown with Bob Fraser.

(Background) In order to accompany me in this purchase, I contacted Mr. Bob Fraser earlier in 2022, a reference from a friend who had appreciated the services received and his professionalism. I was not disappointed!

I appreciated his support throughout the process that led to the purchase of my condo. Among other things, his commitment to finding me a condo that would suit me, according to my needs, my tastes, the quality of the condo, my budget, etc. The relevant information received throughout the process, both verbal and written, was always prompt and accurate.

Not being in Ottawa, Mr. Fraser went to see condos for me and sent me videos, etc. An appreciated commitment. I also appreciated his promptness in following up on my requests and information from beginning to end, a diligent and reassuring presence.

I will not hesitate to suggest Mr. Fraser to my friends and colleagues.

Bob helped us purchase our first home in 2021, and we cannot recommend him highly enough. From the start, Bob was patient, informative, and responsive. With Bob there are no “dumb” questions; he made us feel comfortable and supported every step of the way. We looked at a lot of places in a number of neighbourhoods, but never felt rushed or pressured. In fact, Bob kept reminding us that no time spent looking is wasted time. This was sage advice – the more we looked, the better we were able to recognize value and fit, and the better Bob was able to understand our priorities and tastes (even when they weren’t necessarily clear to us!).

I should also mention the pandemic - given the rapid changes to the Ottawa market during this unprecedented period, it was a huge advantage to have Bob’s steady hand and decades of experience in our corner. He has a keen eye for detail and taught us a ton about how to look – not just at individual homes, but at broader market trends. This prepared us well to recognize the right fit when it came along, and to understand how best to position ourselves in a hyper-competitive environment. We are thrilled with our new home and have been recommending Bob to all our friends and family. If and when the time comes for us to re-enter the market, we have no doubt that we’ll call on Bob again!

I have had the pleasure of working with Bob since the 90s and just recently. Bob has always been the utmost professional to work with. His follow up skills over rhe years by letting us constantly know the activity in our neighborhood as well as many other touch points have always kept Bob top of mind with us. We have been pleased with his response time and his overall knowledge of the market. I would have zero issues in recommending or working with him again. Bob is a true pro.

Sincerely,
The Maiorinos.

Bob is an excellent real estate agent. He helped us through every step of the process in selling our house. His advice was very practical, focused on the cost-benefit for us. He provided contacts for needed services and covered cleaning costs. Communication was easy, friendly and professional. He knew the market very well and helped us get the best price possible. I recommend him highly.

Bob was extremely helpful to us on our journey trying to buy our first house. He was knowledgeable about the process and walked us through every step so that the process did not seem so daunting. While looking at each house he gave us a lot of feedback, pointing out the good things and the bad so that we could make an informed decision. We learnt a lot about different houses, some that we didn't want, some that needed a lot of work, some that had strange quirks, and ultimately found and bought a great house for us. Bob made it all possible and I highly recommend choosing him as a Realtor.

I had never met Bob before and was introduced to me by a friend when it came time to sell an investment property. Alot had changed in the 20 years since my initial purchase and Bob made the experience seamless and professional. He explained the market variables to me and helped me settle on a price to list. My property ended up going for more than asking and I thank and credit Bob for all his help in walking me through the process.

Whether you are a buyer or a seller, novice or experienced, Bob is the right guy in my mind.

Bob has helped me with my real estate needs while buying two houses and selling three over the span of 3 decades. He has a thorough knowledge of the market and market trends and was excellent in providing guidance for the decisions I needed to make for every transaction. I strongly trust Bob Fraser to support my interests in all real estate matters I undertake.

My husband and I reached out to Bob for help in finding our first home. Right from the start, we knew we had found a gem of a realtor! Bob is the consummate professional: wise, courteous, very responsive and always respectful of our time. He is also a delight to work with! While viewing homes with us, he was always ready to point out the most salient information, with a balanced, yet critically-constructive approach to each property we viewed. In this process, we found Bob to be a wealth of knowledge, consistently offering sound and prudent perspectives. The benefit of his many years of experience is evident, and we were proud to have him represent us. As others have mentioned, he is patient and calm; we never once felt rushed or pressured. But when it was time for us to make an offer, he was right on top of it, moving things forward at a highly responsive pace. Once our offer was accepted, Bob guided us through the steps well, and even offered us his own contacts for contracting, painting, etc. We offer him our most sincere and unqualified recommendation. Look no further, this is your guy!

Bob was my real estate agent for selling and buying my homes. He provided invaluable advice through my long thinking process and helped me with all the ins and outs of my first time selling - during Covid no less. He was always responsive to my million questions, for visits to prospective purchases, and especially during the actual selling and buying process. He knows the real estate in Ottawa and the market and was a big part of the successful and quick sale and the purchase of a new place I love. Would recommend without hesitation and will call on him again for my next real estate deal.

I was referred to Bob by friends, and I am so glad I chose to work with him! Bob is extremely knowledgeable, very trustworthy and has guided me through the homebuying process with patience. I never felt pressured to make a decision, which was very important to me. At each showing, he pointed out good and bad aspects of the condo, and then gave me the space to make up my own mind. He also listened to me, and ensured that my requests are fulfilled. For example, having an inspection was crucial for me, which I knew could be challenging given the pressures of the seller's market. Not only were we able to do that - Bob even negotiated the final price down in a time of historic highs! As a first time homebuyer, Bob's guidance made me at ease and excited about each step. I highly recommend his services, and look forward to working together in the future if I choose to sell or buy. Thank you, Bob!

My partner and I recently worked with Bob when we were looking to buy a house. With his expertise, patience and knowledge about the Ottawa real estate market we were able to secure our 100 year old house in Hintonburg, an exclusive up-and-coming neighbourhood. Bob always answered our endless questions within the hour and met us to see countless houses (always showing up early/on time). The Ottawa real estate market has been insane in the last couple of years and with his help we were always ready to put down a competitive offer. My partner also sold his house with Bob and received many offers thousands of dollars over asking price. Thank you Bob for offering excellent service and expertise! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to my friends and family if they ever needed a real estate agent.

Bob is Wonderful agent. I have used him as my agent both buying and selling numerous times and recommended him to friends and family. He explains things well and has been very patient with my numerous questions and concerns. And to top it off he is one of the nicest people around!

Whether you are selling or buying a house you owe it to yourself to have Bob Fraser representing your best interests. Bob is the most attentive realtor we have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. He was extremely responsive and always there when we had a question or needed help, day or night. We would definitely recommend Bob to friends and family. He's just the nicest, most professional sales representative you could ask for.

As a first time homebuyer Bob was a dream to work with. He was incredibly helpful when answering questions, provided thoughtful commentary when we viewed homes and took the time to really understand what we were looking for. He always responded to emails quickly and made himself available for viewing properties at our convenience. House hunting can be tiring, but Bob was always upbeat, easy going and patient with the process. Couldn't recommend Bob enough as a real-estate agent, he was a pleasure to work with and I'm so glad we had his support and experience throughout the home buying process.

We had an excellent experience working with Bob to purchase our first home. Bob is very knowledgeable about all the different neighbourhoods in Ottawa and their pros and cons. He offered great advice about what we could afford in different neighbourhoods based on our budget. He was very responsive and would answer all of our questions and set up showings for us very quickly. He also explained everything about the home buying process to us very clearly since we were first time buyers. Bob helped us find the perfect home for us in a great neighbourhood that fit all of our specifications! Bob is extremely friendly, helpful, attentive, and honest and it was a pleasure to work with him. I would highly recommend working with Bob if you are looking to purchase a home in Ottawa!

You won’t be disappointed working with Bob! I would highly recommend Bob to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. He is professional, honest, thorough, patient, easy to work with, and trustworthy. My partner and I worked with Bob to buy our first home and then sell that home 5 years later. What I appreciated most about working with him is that we always felt Bob put our interest and needs first. While that may seem to like a simple expectation, Bob does so with strong values and ethics.

As a buyer, Bob worked with us to ensure he had a fulsome understanding of our budget, desired locations, and needs. He provided sound current market research to help inform our search and offer strategy. As a seller, Bob again provided thorough market research to help inform the strategy for listing the home. Throughout both processes he went above and beyond to ensure we felt supported and comfortable at each stage. He is patient, never pressuring you to make a decision. He is also realistic based on the current market. In addition, he’s easy to work with and very responsive.

My wife and I recently purchased a home in Ottawa while living outside of the province. Having Bob in our corner was invaluable. The communication between Bob and ourselves was exceptional, but the real value Bob brings is a completely comprehensive understanding of Ottawa and the Ottawa real estate market. I highly recommend working with Bob. Not only will Bob be able to help you with your specific needs and circumstances but you will have the chance to learn an absolute boatload about real estate broadly and the specifics of Ottawa. Having such knowledge will help you feel as confident as possible in the choices you make. Thanks, Bob!

Looking to become a home owner a few months ago, I was looking to work with an experienced Realtor. Bob was highly recommended by my colleague. After meeting with Bob, I decided to work with him. From that first meeting, through to completing the purchase (and beyond), Bob has consistently provided prompt, knowledgeable counsel and relevant information. He does all of this in a friendly, easy to understand, zero pressure manner. He's been in the business a long time and it's clear how much he enjoys what he does. I highly recommend contacting Bob Fraser for any real estate questions. I know I will be.

Bob Fraser is an excellent realtor! He's been our realtor for many years and we have nothing but great things to say about his service. Thanks to him, we ended up in our dream home and we are loving this place! He never pressured us and he made sure we considered everything before we made a decision. We are really happy with our choice! You can't go wrong with Bob!

Bob Fraser was recommended to us by a close personal friend and we saw right away why he was so highly thought of! Always prompt, extremely knowledgeable and very professional services - he always tells it like it is and we are so lucky to have had his help buying our first home in Ottawa's challenging housing market. I would recommend Bob to anyone looking to buy or sell!

It was a huge relief to put such an important step of our lives (the sale of our first house) in such capable hands as Bob’s. He inspired confidence and competence from the first meeting all the way through to the end. Never once were we worried about a thing.

He strategized so well to get us the best price and gave us very valuable advise along the way. The sale of our house happened at the beginning of the pandemic which made his skills even more of an asset during such an uncertain and stressful time. Thank you so much Bob.

I was advised by my work colleague about having Bob Fraser a veteran Real Estate Agent in the Ottawa Area with decades of years involved in the industry. My wifes and I experience with Bob in our first time house purchasing endeavor, from our first meeting, to now, has been exceptional to say the least.

As Millennial first time home buyers we really felt like Bob was transparent in his compensations, communicative in a language we could understand, worked evenings along with weekends to accommodate our schedule, and emphasized working at a pace at which we were comfortable with.

He was able to guide us in the entire home buying process, where that would be interpreting documents, understanding different parties other then him involved in the process along with having referrals for those parties, which we used, who turned out to be just as professional and kind as him.

He was able to walk through a house showing and communicate valuable and important information. This was due to his decades of experience showing thousands of homes, and in turn having a good eye for these things. This in all which led to our eventual purchase of a home.

Even after the purchase of the home, he would answer our 'New Home Owner Questions' and would offer additional advice, even after he received his compensation for the purchase of the home.indicating a great character.

If you are planning on selling or buying a property in the Ottawa Area, my advice have a meeting with Bob and see what he can do for you.

Bob is the best realtor we've ever dealt with. His advice is always on point and his expertise is impressive. He is detail oriented and leaves nothing to chance. As a result, our house was sold in record time! Also, Bob understands that a move is a major event that impacts all the members of a family. His compassionate approach really helped us at every step of the process.

Bob came recommended to us by several friends, and it was quickly clearly evident why so many of our friends are his clients.
We worked with Bob for about a year; both in finding a new home to begin the rest of our life, and in selling our old home to close out a chapter.
Bob always made himself available for us, and when we thought we were pushing the limits of the realtor/client relationship, Bob continuously reminded us that the right house will come along, or the right buyers would come along; all the while with a smile and positive attitude.
The goal in meeting an agent is obviously buying or selling a home, but with Bob, you will also get a warm presence, a friendly face and somebody you will want to keep in touch with over the years

Thank you Bob!

I could not recommend Bob more! Our first home buying experience could have been so much more stressful than it was. Bob was very good at clarifying each stage of the process and often would ensure we were comfortable in our understanding as we moved through the buying cycle. He was very quick to respond to our inquiries and available when we required him. His knowledge and expertise put us at ease in knowing we made the right choice for our family.

Bob is a fantastic person, very experienced and trustworthy realtor.

As a first time home buyer and new to the city, I needed someone I could rely on. He took time to understand my goals and drove me to different neighbourhoods while explaining the trendy areas and educating me in the entire process. He was always available by phone and email and prompted replied to all my questions.

Bob, it was a pleasure working with you. I hope you can keep helping people with real estate for many more years, because you are great!

Bob helped us find our first house 7 years ago (wow time flies!) and after expanding our family it was time to find a new home to accommodate our new needs. Without hesitation we reached out to Bob once more. He was kind and patient and helped us to find our dream home (house searching with new born and 3 year old is not an easy challenge). Bob helped to keep my spirits up when it felt like the search would never. He did a great job explaining the steps along the way, and set up us up for great success.

When it came time to sell our current home, he had it beautifully staged and photographed for us. He helped to set up a great plan of action and it went off without of a hitch!

Thanks for helping to find our family the perfect home! We couldn't be happier with the results.
