Charming Home

IN ALTAMONT

Located in one of the most sought after neighborhoods in West Vancouver is this wonderful old-timer. Sitting on over 12,000 square feet of level property and with 91 feet of frontage this is a dream lot. Set well back from the road the home is both quiet and private and features a fabulous garden with mature shrubs and a sprawling lawn that families will love. The home is spacious with a large living room and dining room on the main, a rec room downstairs and bedrooms up. Set amongst multimillion dollar homes this is a great opportunity to buy and live in or build a fantastic dream home.

You provided quality service on all counts. Every question was answered, every appointment kept, our expectations of financial benefit were exceeded, and more; and you did it all happily and with amazing enthusiasm. At every step in the process of buying our new home and selling our old one you kept us fully informed about the process – your attention to ethics, your professionalism, and your very positive attitude kept us comfortable all along the way. We’re so happy! And we have recommended and will continue to recommend you to our friends who are considering a move of their own.”

Patrick O’Donnell POUNDING THE PAVEMENT - 25 HOURS A DAY! Blessed with an astigmatism, buck teeth and a disproportionately small head, it was believed by many that Patrick would be best suited to the circus; never mind a career in Real Estate. However, not long after meeting Patrick it becomes apparent that his disproportionately small head is crammed with information and his enthusiasm for life combined with his ability to make you feel instantly comfortable allows you to forgive the buck teeth and ignore the astigmatism. You will Ànd yourself in the company of a genuine, well-mannered gentleman.

Patrick, originally from England, arrived in Canada with a stunning work habit that took him to the top of every Àeld entered. In 1983 he started selling Real Estate and within two years he was the #1 Agent in his area and also the #1 Realty World Agent for Alberta. Not content to just sell houses, Patrick spent many hours working for the beneÀt of others and in 1992 was awarded the “Commemorative Medal” by the Governor General of Canada in recognition of his signiÀcant contribution to compatriots, community and to Canada.

In 2001 Patrick and his wife moved to greener pastures in West Vancouver. Now a part of the Prudential Sussex team on the North Shore, Patrick is back pounding the pavement – 25 hours a day! When asked why a person would want to buy or sell through him, Patrick pleasantly summed up his 28-year career:

“From the time I wake up in the morning I am cognizant of the fact that people will forget what you said, they will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel”.
