Bryon eagerly took on the task of selling my home right as Covid started in the spring of 2020 and while the world was heading into a state of lockdowns and uncertainty. He was quick to keep me informed as the market quickly changed in Calgary during this funny time. Bryon always maintained a positive attitude and provided great statistics when I was fearful of market conditions. With Bryon's great persistence we sold my home at the price I was happy with during the 2020 Covid lockdown event. He made sure I was well informed of what the buyers were looking for and everything worked out well in the end. I'd happily recommend Bryon to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Calgary and I'll be using Bryon again when I go to buy and sell more of my investment properties. A++

We interviewed several agents and Bryon's plan for getting our house sold as well as our ability to work with him was what initially won him the business. Our next step was getting our house ready to sell. Bryon walked us through what would be nice to have completed and what was important to have done to make the house show well. We gave have him 6 weeks notice and before we wanted to list and he went to work pre-selling our house. Bryon and Shirley made a great team, doing exactly what we asked, on time, were planful and organized. Their photographer made our house look so professional it was amazing. Once it hit the market it was sold in a week. Great Job!

I’ve used Bryon Howard as my main realtor for my residential real estate buying and selling in Calgary for years. His team provides great service, amazing customer support, and their work was top of the line. Having decided to spend my life in New Zealand, we sold 3 investment properties in the past 6 months in a tough and competitive market. The last deal just closed (with some issues a few weeks into Covid-19). Bryon navigated the challenges of social distancing and put the safety measures in place to complete the marketing, keep the buyer engaged and got the property closed. If you are looking for results in selling or buying in an uncertain market - you owe it to yourself to Interview Bryon. He easily sets appointments on the phone, virtually using facetime, What'sApp and Zoom. Fast, Efficient, Easy.

They helped my parents buy a home after being out of the market for over a year. They recommended this fantastic team for me and my first home purchase. There was a lot I did not know coming into the home buying market and I couldn't have asked for more. Always helpful, friendly and professional with tons of knowledge to share. I have and will continue to reccomend them.

My condo sold faster that I ever dreamed. Bryon and his team took care and went to lengths to make it look spectacular on the listing sites. I had lots of viewings right away and a Buyer appeared shortly thereafter! The Howard Team also worked with me to buy a house in May 2019 - 2 successful transactions in one year!

Bryon helped my wife and I purchase our first home. We found Bryon to be very knowledgeable, offering great advice and insight throughout the entire process. Bryon’s easy to work with and helped make what could have been a stressful process of buying our first home very comfortable and easy. Bryon did an excellent job showing us homes in our desired neighbourhood, offering sound advice for things to look for both in the home and in the area while always letting us come to a decision on our own without feeling pressured in any way. When it came time to make an offer on our desired home, Bryon did a great job in helping us establish a reasonable offer to start the negotiation process. Bryon also very effectively helped us assess the home for any conditional fixes he suggested should be required prior to taking possession - these were often things my wife and I never would have thought of but after moving into the home, we certainly appreciate Bryon’s advice on these conditional fixes . With Bryon's help in the negotiation process, we were able to get our desired home for the right price with all desired fixes complete upon possession. We were very happy with the process and end result. Bryon was a very helpful resource throughout the entire process and continues to help us as we settle into our new home. I highly recommend Bryon to anyone seeking to purchase or sell a home. He's knowledgeable, easy to work with, and he takes pride in always being available to help out his clients.

I recently worked with Bryon it was a pleasure working with him. Bryon quickly met me at a property I was interested in buying. While we did not decide on that listing, he showed me some others and we finally decided on one that would meet my needs. After completing a comparative market analysis, and considering COVID-19 and the real estate market, we made an offer that was accepted. It was not a new home, and did have a few issues around the property inspection. We got a few further concessions, and I look forward to moving soon! All around, a great experience buying my first home!

Bryon Horward and his team made selling my home easy. After my first call they went right to work. I was surprised how fast they were working. They kept me up to date on everything that was happening. I needed a lawyer and Bryon gave me a couple suggestions and they were more than willing to help. My house sold quickly. And at a far market value. I would certainly recommend Bryon and his team for your reality needs.

My brother has recommended Bryon about seven year ago and eversince then, in all my real estate dealings I"ve dealt with Bryon. He sets the right expectations regarding the property itself and does and an excellent job promoting it. In 2018, after I completed one of the duplexes I built, Property Brothers has approached me and asked to tape one of their episodes. After taping the Property Brothers episode, Bryon took an excellent advantage of it and in a midst of a mini economic crisis and very slow market, he sold both properties within a week. 3 months later, the market dropped 6% in value which I avoided thanks to Bryon's efforts.

I sold and purchased with Bryon during the Covid pandemic. He was professional, knowledgeable and offered very helpful advice while navigating such uncertain and unprecedented times. I believe his team did a fantastic job helping us prepare for listing and helped us get a fair price for our home during very challenging times. Bryon was a great negotiator when it was time to purchase, and we found a fantastic home for a really great price. I would recommend Bryon to anyone looking for an experienced Realtor who really knows how to make buying/selling a home so much less stressful.

Bryon and his assistant, Ben, made buying our first home exciting and easy. We were new to the entire process and he patiently walked us through every step. He listened to what we wanted and found an incredible home for us that fit all our criteria and that was well within our budget. We’re looking forward to working with Bryon and Ben again in the future when we eventually upgrade!

We are very content to have Bryon and Shirley as our real estate agents. Bryon's experience helped guide our decisions during a challenging real estate market for a seller. He communicated with us often and well, and effectively and skillfully negotiated a deal within the boundaries that we established. We could not have successfully sold our property without Bryon and Shirley's help.

Bryon Howard is so great exclusive seller agent. He has good experience with current market. I got an offer within a week while it was put on the market and it was conditional sold in another week. My house was sold fast more than our expectation. He provided excellent service and made a satisfactory bargain driver. His team is so joined and held together by every supporting ligament and build up extraordinary services. It is my privilege to introduce my prominent agent to you when you are planning to sell your house.

Bryon is a very proactive and knowledgeable agent. He listened to me attentively, was able to understand my specific situation and then strategized a solution that gave the result that I wanted. He was able to do what I thought was impossible – to sell a property in a tough market during the pandemic and economic downturn. Bryon and his team did an outstanding job!

My husband and I worked with Bryon Howard to purchase our first property, closing our deal on Aug. 13th, 2020. Since July 8th Bryon dedicated himself entirely to help us in this search. I would consider ourselves the "very well decided buyers", those who know what are really looking for. We informed Bryon and his team our parameters for purchasing a house such as: specific neighbourhoods, price, type of property, style and other aspects that reduced the available houses to a very few options. After finding what we needed, Bryon stepped in with all his knowledge and professionalism; representing us with the seller's realtor. We had a long negotiation (12 days) with many back and forths about what we had to offer versus what the seller really wanted in this actual house market during this pandemic time. In the end Bryon managed all the process smoothly to get the job done and we're very satisfied to work with him and his team. If you need a realtor with knowledge, great communications skills, great advice his name is Bryon Howard. Thank you Bryon!

Bryon was great to work with! He worked with me on appropriate pricing based on market stats/comparisons. The marketing was excellent and we had many many showings right away.The house sold almost immediately over asking price. He was pleasant, efficient, and it was a fun process. I'd recommend Bryon to anyone.

Bryon was very punctual in all our meetings and responded to calls/text almost immediately. He worked hard to get our house sold. I will always use Bryon for future transactions. He is the best!

Very helpful in helping us figure what we wanted in a house and encouraged us to make offers even if we didn't think they would go anywhere, but if he hadn't done that we could still be looking months later. We took a risk and it paid off and he was able to negotiate the price down to our level to get the house we wanted, though originally it seemed impossible to get. He was sometimes late to appointments but otherwise really helpful.

Dedicated, professional and patient. Shirley was excellent as we saw many properties over a few months. She helped my wife and I find the right place to call home. As we viewed properties she would provide collaborative observations to help match the house to our lifestyle. We would highly recommend Shirley for everyone. She is a relational relator who will help you find more than a house, but a home.

Well Done. I would use this agent again because of their professionalism and consideration. I got timely feedback after each showing that help me understand better what was going on.

Bryon did an excellent job from start to close. He did a lot of background work on the market and our house, and presented thorough data to set realistic expectations about the potential for our house sale. Bryons contacts and working relationships with others in related fields made the process both efficient and pleasant (regarding minor touch-ups to the property, pictures, video tours etc..) Bryon did a great deal of "pre-marketing" our home with his colleagues in real estate. As a result we had showingS immediately upon listing and offer/potential offers early in the process. Bryon's consistent ongoing communication throughout the negotiations process, lifting of conditions and moving forward to possession were very useful and insightful. I would definitely have Bryon for on any future house sales/purchases in the future. Awesome experience throughout!

About Bryon Howard
From a very young age, I had determined that I wanted to be in the eco-tourism / adventure business. I would take small groups of people into communities in interesting parts of the world. I would assist in creating ‘memories for a lifetime’. My wife and I started an outdoor adventure / eco tourism business in 1993. We led small groups of people on sea kayaking, biking and walking tours in Eastern Canada and Mexico. My plan was to offer adventures all over the world. In the fall of 2002 CBC Radio hosted a program on Schools in Eastern Canada, and living in Eastern Canada. I kept hearing the best decision to a better education for your children was to move to Alberta. Move to Albeta for better schools, and the Alberta Advantage. I moved to Alberta for a better life for my family. I came for the schools, the economy, and the opportunities to explore. Creating a life in Real Estate was a natural choice. Real Estate isn’t about a house. It’s about helping (even guiding) people in making choices that move them forward. That’s what a great agent does. We’re equal parts salesperson and therapist. I began selling and investing in real estate in Calgary before, and during the 2006 and 2007 boom. The Alberta bust happened at the end of 2008 and by 2009 we were all either laughing or crying at ourselves. That bumper sticker that last appeared in the 1980’s appeared again. “Please God, give us another oil boom, we promise not to piss it away this time.” ( Bee had another boom in 2013 and 2014, which busted in 2015 … and the bumper sticker appeared again!) It is during the rough times in Alberta that I learned a system to sell real estate at a high level. I had no choice. Like many Albetans, I had overextended myself. I lived too high on our boom cycles, and like many Albertan families, my family paid for this in the bust cycles. Before our next boom in 2013, I learned the importance of a real estate team. After going it alone for 10 years, I came to realize the most effective way to do “it all” was with a team. My team helps make the process and journey for our clients seamless and brings them full circle. In the meantime, my children thrived in school and their chosen extracurricular activities. Our oldest, graduated from University of Victoria - thriving within her community. The youngest excelled at cycling. Their schools were Altadore, Calgary Science, Calgary Academy & The National Sports Academy. And that’s why helping Calgary families is personal for me.
