OWNER TESTIMONIALS

 

Owning in Stonebridge for 15 years and skiing BW has been a major highlight in our lives. We have been equally pleased with the management provided by the incredibly friendly and service oriented staff at Central Reservations. When there on vacation, they make us feel as though we're guests in a 5 star hotel and have helped make renting our home much easier than we had ever expected.

 

 

~ Susan, Mark and John Howard, Stonebridge

 

We have rented our unit in the Eagles with Big White for 15 years. During that time we have been very happy with the rental of our unit. Graham and his crew in Owner Relations are helpful, efficient and great to deal with! The continuity they provide along with the knowledge of the market is unbeatable. Renting our unit with Big White Central Reservations allows us to enjoy our unit without any hassles.

 

 

~ Sally & Rob, Eagles Resort

 

We have had our property managed by Big White Owner Relations for the past few years and have found them to be a pleasure to deal with. All the staff are very friendly and go out of their way to assist with all of our requests. Big White Owner Relations is open and available all year round and respond promptly to all correspondence. The team also provide helpful suggestions on ways to improve the property to ensure that a exceptional patronage rate is achieved. Having our property listed through Big White Central Reservations ensures that it has a high profile which results in the property being booked more often and the process is seamless. In addition to this, there is a team of maintenance personnel on-hand to ensure that any issues that occur are dealt with promptly so that our guests enjoy the best experience possible. We thoroughly recommend having Big White Owner Relations to anybody looking for a rental property manager.

 

 

~ Giulia & Michael, Grizzly Lodge

 

It is an absolute pleasure working with Graham and the BW Central Reservations team. They are super well organized and responsive in making certain our unit is rented for the dates we make available and that our unit is well maintained. The team communicates quickly and clearly and in a professional manner. Financial and tax reporting is clear, thorough and timely. I highly recommend working with the BW Central Reservations team.

 

 

~ Brian, Copper Kettle Lodge

 

Having completed two seasons under your management we would like to let you know how happy we are with the service you are providing. We currently own two properties and both have been under various managing agents since buying them over ten years ago. During this time the rental occupancy was very disappointing and the level of care taken by the agents was at times lacking. When Big White Central Reservations took over we were concerned that because of the size of your rent pool we may have received even less rentals but this has turned out to be the reverse. We are up about thirty percent on previous years and the care and attention we get from your staff is fantastic. Both properties are in excellent condition thanks to the regular inspections by your maintenance staff. We send to you and your staff a big thank you for the peace of mind you have given us particularly as we are long distance landlords.

I am the owner of units 105 and 110 at the White Crystal Inn at Big White, having acquired the first unit in 2012. My main business since 2002 has been investment/rental real estate in BC and Alberta, which I have always self-managed. I was nervous when I first entrusted my strata units to Big White's property management team. However, I was to be very pleasantly surprised. Graham Sullivan and his team do an amazing, efficient and professional job of managing my units and I am completely satisfied. They are friendly, helpful and pleasant to deal with and prompt in their communications. I spoke with Graham prior to purchasing and he was happy to chat with me and tell me a little about the White Crystal Inn. Since then I have had dealings with various other members of the team and they are all first rate and customer focused. The hotel is well managed and staff are well chosen. The revenue I receive is excellent and I am very happy to pay the fair commission charged for the caliber of service provided. I am well aware of the effort, commitment, dedication and expense involved in effectively managing these properties. My strata units are truly hands-off investments, enabling me to sit back and relax in the knowledge that they are in good hands. I am very particular and would highly recommend them.
