REVIEWS

Shuvolaxmi Dutta

Highly recommend! An absolute pleasure to work with. We recently purchased our beautiful new home in Calgary with the help of Viren and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very beginning, he truly listened to our specific needs, likes, and dislikes. He understood exactly what we were looking for in a family home and didn’t recommend us to see anything that didn’t align with our vision. He was very respectful of our budget and helped us find excellent options within our range without ever making us feel pressured. He never rushed us — even when we took time to think things through, he was patient and supportive every step of the way. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond during the final walkthrough. He took care of a few issues that came up and made sure everything was properly addressed before closing. It gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, working with him felt like searching for a home with a close family friend. His warmth, honesty, and genuine care made, what could have been a stressful process, truly enjoyable. We are so grateful for his help in finding our perfect family home and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation! Thank you again Viren!

Stallone Dias

We recently worked with Viren to purchase a rental property, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Buying a home can be stressful, but Viren made the entire process smooth and straightforward. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and always available to answer our questions. We never felt pressured and always felt that he had our best interests in mind. His guidance throughout the search, negotiations, and closing process was invaluable, and thanks to his hard work, we found the perfect property. I would highly recommend Viren to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful experience such a positive one! - We will definitely be in-touch when we're in the market for another property.

Michael Rand

I am a Alberta certified home inspector for a top home inspection company and have had the pleasure to work with Virin on a few occasions, his professional attitude and knowledge of the space is exceptional and should be a bar set by all realtors to match. It was a pleasure and I look forward to a long professional relationship with him and his company in the future. Thanks for being so professional and prompt with all requests.

Driven. Down-to-earth. Deeply passionate about real estate.. and the people behind every move.
 
After a successful 20 year international corporate career for some of the world’s most recognized brands, I made the leap to real estate to pursue something more personal: helping individuals and families find their place in the world, starting with a home.

Now based in beautiful Calgary, I bring the same professional mindset, client-first attitude, and commitment to excellence to every real estate journey.
 
Outside of real estate, you will find me BBQing & grilling for my family, geeking out over history, or using my Fujifilm cameras to capture moments in time with the people I love. I am also a lifelong fan of FC Bayern München and a loyal supporter of the Calgary Flames. And I am always up for friendly conversation and a good laugh.
 
I love Calgary. I love Canada. And I am passionate about helping others experience the incredible opportunities this beautiful city & great country have to offer.
