I was initially hesitant about the prospect of selling my home due to a personal situation. David’s professionalism, expertise, and non-judgmental attitude instantly put me at ease. Having lived and worked in the Clayton heights neighborhood was a bonus in the area nestled between Surrey and Langley British Columbia.
David and his colleague, Kandace, truly went above and beyond. They were incredibly hands-on, even assisting with the preparation required to get the property market-ready when things fell behind, and kept me in the loop at every stage. Their guidance was invaluable, and the media package they produced was outstanding—it showcased the home beautifully.
I am sincerely grateful for their sensitivity and patience. They sold the property quicker than average estimates and conducted the entire process with a great degree of professionalism. Thank you, David and Kandace, for helping me successfully navigate this transition into my next chapter. I would highly recommend your team of realtors in the future and hope to see you again for my next purchase.

David and his team were amazing. They went above and beyond our expectations. We requested many trips to see listings in the valley and they responded quickly, putting a plan together seamlessly. They were always friendly and warm, always kind, always committed to us and our needs, always professional. I would highly recommend David and team when considering listing or buying. Their motto is “People over Property” and that was our full experience. Thank you David and team.

I had a great experience with the team at David Smith Homes. Being a first time seller while hunting for a particular type of home in a very tough market was stressful, but everyone was patient, kind and honest. Rather than doing what was easiest or fastest for them, a lot of extra care was taken to ensure a good transaction that matched my comfort level – this was very important for a such a big purchase. Thank you team!

The whole process from the initial meeting, to the photos & media, to the negotiation stage was all smooth, with great communication throughout. In what can be a very stressful time, David and his team made everything smooth and stress free!
Thank you to David and his team again for exceptional service.

My Mom moved from the West Coast to the East Coast and everything was on a short time line. We were recommended David and Emerson as realtors – and – we are so thankful the they were recommended. David and Emerson were incredible and helped us organize everything and answered all of our questions. The pictures, video, and social media were great and we truly believe that it helped our place sell so quickly. We would recommend them with absolutely no hesitation. Thank you David and Emerson!

We recently had the pleasure of working with David and his fantastic team to sell our home and purchase a new one in Abbotsford, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience.
David took the time to listen to our wishes and understand what was important to us in both selling our current home and finding the perfect new one. His attention to detail and dedication to his clients’ needs made the entire process very smooth.
David’s expertise in the local market was evident throughout the entire journey. He provided invaluable insights and guidance that helped us make informed decisions every step of the way. His professionalism and integrity were truly impressive, and we felt confident knowing that we had him and his team on our side.
Thanks to David’s hard work and dedication, we were able to sell our home quickly and for a great price. And when it came to finding our new home, he went above and beyond to ensure that we found the perfect fit for our family.
We are so grateful to David and his team for their exceptional service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Fraser Valley!

I met David at an open house in 2018. I was interested in his knowledge of the market and the real estate industry. David is also straightforward to talk to. My wife and I checked out his videos and marketing online and were impressed. We decided to use David to list our Langley condo and were amazed. David Smith and the team worked closely with us as they made our listing shine online. We appreciated how responsive they were to any messages and requests, not to mention their depth of knowledge, experience and savvy. Not only did we get a highly desirable outcome on the sale, but the entire experience was excellent. They are also very down-to-earth people to work with and embody their mantra of People Over Property, Always. We highly recommend David Smith Homes Group to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Alert! This is not a paid commercial. My wife and I discovered David Smith Homes Group through an internet search of top realtors in the Fraser Valley, and Greater Vancouver. Our first in home meeting with David Smith and his team member was a revelation. Within five minutes of chatting with David we realized why he was the number one, and number two top seller in 2020, and 2021, consecutively.
David is a warm, softly spoken person, who has an acute understanding of our local market. We were immediately drawn to his confident manner, which was enthusiastic, without being overbearing. We also saw how valuable his team were to this equation, as they work with David on much of the behind the scenes minutiae, like statistics analysis, and compilation, as well as doing a myriad of other jobs, leaving him free to concentrate on navigating very challenging negotiations in our current real estate market.
As they revealed, with interest rates rising, and home values dropping, timing an appropriate list price is crucial. David hit the mark spot on. After some back and forth negotiations with the buyers, on our list price, we had an accepted offer, and all in less than three weeks. In this market, which shows only one in four homes appropriately listed selling within that time period, and many of those not selling without the first month often going into limbo, this is a genuine accomplishment. Through those three nail biting weeks, David worked tirelessly with prospective buyers’ agents, helping them to create within their clients minds, an understanding of our home’s qualities, which to led to at least two other near offers, which were mostly held up by the fact that the potential buyers had not yet sold their own homes.
David has also helped us in numerous other ways during the stress filled experience of listing a home. For example, he found a professional home cleaner for us, who has done private work for his family, he offered to help us find a notary, or a lawyer, to do the conveyancing, he has a recommended home painter, who can help us should we need help after removing artworks and mirrors from walls. He gave us advice on moving companies, and even suggested one who recently did a move for him. He spent the entire time here that the buyers’ home inspector was in our home. When the buyers kept adding requests, and questions, beyond those in the subjects, he skillfully navigated between us and the buyers’ agent, with a keen sense for the dynamics. I could go on.
In summary, we are 100% happy with David Smith. We unreservedly recommend David Smith Homes Group to anyone wishing to sell or buy a home with a Realtor. We can’t imagine how this team, put together by David, could offer any better service than that which they gave us.

We first met David Smith three years ago when we sought to purchase our first condo. In a season of rising prices and multiple offer sales, we were hesitant. David helped us find the perfect home, which we bought for under asking in a desirable neighborhood.
When we reached out to David again a few years later, he walked us through the selling process and was patient with us as we casually started looking for a bigger space. For more than a year, David sent us Snapstats as we analyzed the market with him, researching and waiting for the right time to sell. Then, on a whim this past March, we viewed a presale development and fell in love. David was right there when we needed him, and again helped us buy our new townhouse under asking price.
In September, David took care to artfully market and sell our condo in multiple offers over asking. In three years, we’ve bought two homes under asking and sold our condo for over asking in multiple offers and David has been there every step of the way.
David is more than a Realtor to us, he’s a friend, confidante, the guy you feel like you’ve known forever when you’ve only just met. We truly felt valued and appreciated, and that he had our best interest in mind. David is honest, trustworthy, authentic, and kind. Hiring David was the most important and best decision we made, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

I’ve interviewed many respected realtors that were recognized as top performers in the real estate world. I had a tough time finding the right realtor that could help me reach my real estate goals in selling my property. Then I was introduced to David Smith who exemplifies what everyone should expect from a real estate agent. Honest, respectful, trustworthy, knowledgable and will go the extra mile to ensure your property gets the right marketing exposure! He stays current with the movements of the shifting real estate market whether it be a house or an apartment. He has experience and strategies that can help you sell your home at the top market price that will set new records within the building.
I felt David’s work ethic allowed us to work as a solid team where he kept good lines of communication, supported me throughout the process and personally created additional marketing material to featured not only my home but making the connection to the community! I believe that our joint team effort brought us an astonishing results that lead 50 groups of people to view my apartment within two days. My apartment sold within three days, 21% over asking and sold $75,000 more than a similar apartment that sold a week prior.
I have personally recommended David to my family, friends and neighbours as I know he will go above and beyond most realtors to ensure your property gets the proper exposure.

“People over Property” personified. David has an unbelievable work ethic and and put a staggering amount of effort in for us. We put him through a lot… research, many open houses, strata document reviews, home inspection; all in one week! But at the end of that wild journey, he still had a smile on and was truly as happy as we were with our wonderful home. Thank you so much David!
– Paolo
Sincerity is hard to find these days, combine that with hard work and a true passion for people and you have a real winning combination.
Having been fortunate to have partnered with David on the financing while he takes care of the house hunting has been a world class experience. I must also commend his high level of communication through out the entire process, always keeping everyone informed!
Working with David would be a wise decision, so give the man a call!
– Alex
David did a wonderful job in helping us purchase our first home. We first met David when he stepped in to show us a few homes on a Friday night when the timing did not work for our realtor. Despite not knowing who we were, our interests, our budget etc., David was well prepared, made a connection with us and we decided to work with him going forward. His knowledge of all the properties we viewed and the real estate market in general was incredibly helpful for us to make an informed decision. Because of this, we were able to purchase our home for well below the selling price which was amazing! David couldn’t have a better slogan than “People over property, always”. We felt that he genuinely cared about us as people first, and clients second. We would highly recommend David to anyone looking to buy/sell their home.

David was recommended to us by a family friend to help us move into this crazy lower mainland market from a small interior BC town. Since we were coming down to hunt for a house on a limited time frame he said he would devote his time to us. With a weeks notice he not only delivered his promise but exceeded our expectations. He fought hard for us to find a home and as he states put us before the property. A key difference I hadn’t experienced with another realtor was the cover letter about our family submitted with the offer. It was possibly the the most important piece that won us the home. I will definitely be recommending David to anyone looking for a home. Thanks David for making our move a reality.
– Sarah
David and the team were absolutely terrific to deal with, in my search for the ideal condo for my daughter. Having not been in the real estate market in a long time, there were many changes and challenges to navigate. David put us at ease with his great insights, advice and professionalism through every step of the way.
David and his team were extremely responsive to all communications, provided me with honest and detailed advice and information that I needed to make good decisions in a very challenging market. I really felt he had our family’s best interests in mind and his team worked hard to help me understand the process and what to look for. We did indeed look at a number of houses in different locations and David even took time out of his own schedule to be there in person for viewings. He really understood what I was looking for and was very motivated to find the right fit for my needs.
I have no hesitation in recommending David and his team for any of your real estate needs. 5 stars from me!
