I would like to take the time to say Thank You for all your help in finding the right home for Christine and myself. I am sure it is going to be a home that we will enjoy for years to come.
I know we were in Calgary for a short time looking for a home (4 days). With your help in narrowing down the style and location of the home we wanted before we even arrived in Calgary it made our home search trip all that much easier that when we did arrive we were able to concentrate on the homes that best suited our needs thus enabling Christine and I to purchase the home we wanted in the price range we wanted in just three days.
We both appreciated the time you allowed us in each home we visited. Not once did we feel rushed or pressured for time. Your patience in allowing us the time we needed in each home made the purchasing decision all that much easier.
Once again thanks for making our home search trip such a successful one. Please feel free to use my name as a reference as I feel your services are top notch.

Dear Shirley and Jeff:
Thank you again for assisting us with our home sale and purchase last year. Throughout the process we appreciated your accessibility, professionalism and industry knowledge. As a result of your patience and willingness to go the extra mile" we were able to conclude two transactions that otherwise likely would not have occurred.
Over the course of working with you for a period of months, you were very attentive and always quick to respond to any concerns we had. We would not hesitate to use your services again in the future and would most certainly recommend you to friends and family.
Warmest Thanks and Regards,
- L & K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We would like to sincerely thank you for your dedication and commitment, in helping us to find our homes. You have been most supportive and patient to meet our needs. Over the years, you have not just been a REALTOR® to us, but also a friend. It has been our pleasure knowing you, such an outgoing and genuine person.
Thank you and best wishes to you and your family.

- Alessandra, Clementina & Francesco ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Shirley Mikolajow has been our REALTOR® on two occasions. Firstly, when we were being relocated to Calgary from Toronto, she managed to locate a beautiful home that suited our every need and want and secondly, when we were relocated from Calgary to Florida and she managed to sell our home in a very down market in record time.
Shirley always acted in a very professional manner and never overlooked the slightest detail. Her integrity, perseverance and positive outlook paid off for us. We highly recommend Shirley and know that she will give you the same excellent service that was provided to us.
- Christopher and Andrea ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We were delighted with the service we received from you on the listing of our house in Calgary and its eventual sale.
You were professional throughout the entire process from the first day of listing to the closing of the transaction.
Your caring, forthright and professional approach helped us in making sure that we listed the property competitively to get the best price that eventually turned out to be in our best interest and within the range you had advised.
We will recommend the services you offer to our friends and family and would have absolutely no hesitation in working with you again.
You are more than welcome to have any of your prospective clients call us for a reference if they wish.
Best Regards,
- Nashir & Nazlin ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Jeff was dedicated to finding us our dream house in 2009. He had the vision to find the right house within our budget and sold our old house for a good price. The deal went through seamlessly and he did such a fantastic job finding the best home we may never need to move again, but if we do we will certainly ask Jeff to be our real estate agent.
