Dave was prompt and professional throughout the whole buying and selling process. He has a vast understanding of the market and the intricacies that effect house prices. Dave's professional communication with other realtors as well as inferences about the situation helped make our offer standout amongst 5 other offers for our house. We could not be more thrilled with our purchase and the service Dave provided.

We chose Dave and Cheryl Linklater to list and sell our townhome in St. Albert. We worked predominantly with Cheryl Linklater and could not have asked for a better realtor. Cheryl was knowledgeable in property values, current housing market, and the entire real estate process. She was an excellent communicator and was always prompt in replying to our questions and concerns, and with keeping us updated in a timely manner with feedback from viewings of our property. Cheryl was very skilled at guiding us through the negotiation process and helped us to get the best price for our home.
We appreciated Cheryl's kind, courteous, professional manner throughout the process of selling our home, and we would highly recommend the team of Dave and Cheryl Linklater!

Dave and Cheryl recently helped us find our first home! We appreciate their help so much, the advice abd guidance that they gave us as first time homebuyers helped us secure an amazing property that we are very excited about, incredibly quickly. This is especially important given the competitive market conditions in our price range. Their flexibility to work with our busy schedule and fit multiple showings in over the weekends and their responsiveness to questions over text and email were very valuable to us. Thanks again Dave and Cheryl for your help, we couldn’t be happier!

We have used Dave for several real estate transactions and could not be happier. Dave is an exemplary professional, honest and straight forward. We knew that his knowledge and expertise would get us the best price for our property. He is prompt and efficient with communication and always able to offer the best advice on how to proceed with the sale of our property.

Dave was the best agent we could have asked for. My Husband and I were house shopping for our very first home and Dave was recommended to us from a family friend. Dave was very knowledgeable in helping us buy our first home, he was extremely helpful from beginning to end as we had a ton of questions as first time home buyers. He really took the time to listen to what we wanted and steered us in the right direction. Dave was dedicated in finding our dream home and he did just that! We strongly recommend Dave for any of your real estate needs

We would thoroughly recommend working with Dave. He was of tremendous assistance to us throughout the buying and selling process. Since we were new to the area, he took his time to show us around and help us find the perfect home. He also made the process of selling our home seamless and stress-free!
He is patient, professional, knowledgeable and very easy to work with, we wouldn't hesitate to work with him again! Thanks Dave

Dave is a diamond in the rough. We had several specific needs for a house, and Dave patiently and graciously worked with me for over a year to find us just the right home. We couldn’t be happier. He’s knowledgeable and consistently informative, hard-working, kind and thoughtful. A true professional.

You know how sometimes, when you meet someone, you just know they’re a good, decent person? That was my experience when I first met Dave. He didn’t disappoint either. My first impression was spot on.
Just as important, he proved to be an outstanding realtor . . with invaluable knowledge and experience.
I would recommend Dave, in a heartbeat, to anyone looking for a realtor.

I have known Dave for over 10 years and have worked with him on many staging projects (I'm an interior designer). Dave recently listed and sold my own home (within 2 weeks) and I was totally satisfied with the service he and his wife Cheryl provided, its always a pleasure working with you Dave. I would highly recommend Dave for your real estate needs, he goes the extra mile to make sure you are looked after.

This was the second time that we worked with Dave on real estate transactions in St. Albert. Dave has in depth knowledge of this market which allowed us to make informed decisions on both the sale of our existing home and the purchase of our new home. Cheryl provided excellent support in communicating open houses and in dealing with the administrative support for closing the deals in a very timely and efficient manner. They are a strong team, and we would definitely work with them again!

We were recommended to Dave by clients of his who use his services exclusively, and we were very happy we worked with him. We moved from out of province, and Dave very quickly ascertained the type of neighborhoods and houses we preferred. He took us on quite a few showings via Facetime, and when we chose our home, he negotiated successfully for us, and helped us with all of the paperwork, lawyers, banking, literally everything we needed to know when purchasing a home in a long distance manner.

We we’re not sure what we wanted in a house….for several years (5 I think). And Dave would get a call from one of us, and on a Sunday afternoon we would look at 2-3 houses. Dave would show up with a smile on his face with all the information of the houses we were about to look at and knowledgeable about each one. It was calming, as I was getting quite anxious that we would never find anything we liked. Eventually we did and although Dave was on holidays when we did find the perfect house…he orchestrated from afar with a partner at the firm and we closed very quickly. We needed a quarterback to facilitate lawyers, seller information, punch items and terms etc. Thanks Dave. Much appreciated.

Very pleasant experience Dave and his team was able to put the buy and later the sell together for us even as we where out off the country for the buy and out off province for the sell. Straight up and trustworthy I would have no problem having him look after future real estate for our family.

I listed my home in March with Dave. He was so helpful and knowledgeable. He and his team are caring and responsive. I had to go away for a while during my listing period and Dave went above and beyond taking care of my needs. I would highly recommend his services and would 100% use him again for any real estate transactions.

I say this with absolute certainty that working with Dave has been an incredible journey. He was an absolutely fantastic person to talk to and answered all of our questions during the house buying process, especially considering it was our first time buying a home! He went above and beyond to work with us and make sure things happened in a timely manner, as well as offering his professional opinion on the houses we were viewing. He honestly went above and beyond for my fiancé and I, I don’t know how we would’ve done everything without him! Honestly Dave made the whole process a lot easier to handle and helped explain a lot of things to us since everything was all so new. He was polite, great communication throughout the process like updates and check ins to see our thoughts on things, and was overall a wonderful person to work with. We couldn’t be happier! 11/10 would use Dave again and 11/10 would recommend him to anyone!

Dave was very helpful navigating the sale of our condo. He just seemed to know when was the time to change the price. He made sure that we weren’t open to someone trying to undercut us. He knew we wanted to sell as quick as possible but he made sure to get us the best price possible. He was always in contact with us so we knew when there were showings or offers. We would definitely recommend Dave to anyone who was looking for a really good real estate agent.

Dave was knowledgeable, respectful, courteous, and timely. He walked me through every stage in both the selling and buying process, ensuring I was comfortable and clear with all that was happening. He was aware of the pace I was comfortable with, and navigated the process alongside me. I would definitely recommend him and his wife Cheryl to get the job done and done well.

We have been working with Dave for over 5 years and have completed several property transactions over that period. Dave listened attentively to our needs and wishes, and patiently worked with us to find the property that we ultimately purchased. He is a skilled negotiator and guided us through the contract process with our best interests in mind. He communicated frequently with us and he made himself available when we needed to contact him. We appreciated his expertise in the transaction process and helped us with questions that were unfamiliar to us (i.e. Real Property Report process with the City).

We appreciated Dave's understanding and patience! Coming from out of province we had limited knowledge
of the area we hoped to move to. Dave took us to various neighbourhoods and through many homes so we were able to evaluate our wants and needs. This approach helped us find the house that was best suited to us and we are now very happily settled into our home!

Dave was absolutely incredible to work with! He helped my sister and I sell our father’s condo quickly and efficiently. Dave helped us through the entire process and was totally accessible every step of the way. Since that sale, he helped my daughter and her husband buy their first home, and two other family members are at the ready to work with him in the next few months. We have definitely found the realtor we will work with from now on.

I had the pleasure of dealing with Dave and his team with the sale of my home and purchase of my new home in the summer of 2021. I had a very short window to get this all done and Dave was extremely helpful. He spent days and days with me helping me prepare my house for sale and subsequently finding a new one. He is knowledgable and thorough. This allowed for me to be comfortable knowing that I was getting value on both ends of this process. He is fair and honest and I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Dave helped us sell our home and buy another home at the end of 2020. Dave has the perfect personality for a real estate agent... He has a huge amount of knowledge of the real estate market and can give his client's great advice but he's not pushy or looking for a quick sale. He really made us feel like we were important and he took the time to answer all our questions. He answered our texts and emails and was super easy to deal with. I would recommend Dave to anyone. He knows his stuff and is a great communicator. Selling a house and buying a house is really stressful but Dave made it go as smoothly as possible. There will always be a few bumps along the way but he gave us all the information we needed to make good decisions.

We hired Dave Linklater for the first time at the end of 2012 to purchase our first home as newcomers to Canada. We were very glad we hired him and on April 2021 we hired him again to help us sell our Bungalow and also to help us purchase a newer property.
He did an amazing job and withing one week after we listed our place it was sold and we purchased a beautiful duplex.
We highly recommend Dave, his the kind of guy that will go that extra mile to make sure his customers are 100% happy and satisfied.

Truly professional approach with satisfactory results both with the sale of our St. Albert property and the joint purchase with our Daughter from Ontario on the Seba Beach acreage. He was there or just a phone call away at every step of the process from the initial search (long distance with my daughter) to the final sale and everything worked out well.

Dave went over and above to help us find the perfect home. Also with selling our last home he was amazing and navigated everything for us seamlessly. From lawyer assistance to bringing papers and forms to sign to our work or wherever was needed when we were unable to meet up with my husband working out of town! I highly recommend Dave Linklater to find your new home or sell existing home. He’s so kind And helpful and makes everything work out smoothly. I will definitely use him in the future and recommend to anyone I know that needs a real estate agent to represent or help them find there new home.

Dave Linklater was recommended to me. He was helpful, thorough and knowledgeable. Dave was great at putting me at ease as it was my first time buying a house through a realtor. Conversation flowed easily between us and we could converse about topics other than just real estate. He provided additional information regarding ways of viewing and interpreting the financial costs of buying a home. He is an excellent negotiator! I am happy with my new home and pleased with the work that Dave and his team did for me! Leslie

Dave's great. Alberta real estate is a gong show, Dave took care of it for me. Original offer above asking fell through, NOT Dave's fault. [I suppose I chose the wrong offer on a multi-offer situation]. Got there in the end, a little less than I was hoping for, but satisfied with the ultimate sale.

Dave was a wonderful Real Estate Agent for the sale of our home in 2020. He did his homework and researched the market in our area so we could best position our house for sale. Dave was absolutely professional, responsive and communicative. We would not hesitate to recommend Dave as a Realtor! Thanks again Dave!

We have sold and purchased a few homes through Dave Linklater over the years. Most recently, during the early days of the pandemic he was able to adapt and successfully sell our home in a very short time. He is an experienced and professional realtor who provides exceptional service for his clients. Dave takes care to understand your needs and is always available and responsive. He is knowledgeable of the market and provides good information and analysis to determine appropriate pricing. We very much appreciated his thoughtful and sound advice throughout each process, as well as his negotiation skills that helped us navigate a few difficult situations. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dave to anyone looking for a trustworthy realtor.

We had the privilege of working with Dave for both the purchase and sale of our home. He was very professional, honest, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to work with us when an unexpected problem arose after we had already moved and were waiting for the house to sell. We have moved numerous times over the years and he stands out as a professional. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. 5/5

Dave was our agent to purchase a house in St. Albert. He has exceptional knowledge of the entire area and has lived there many years. He was referred to me by a business associate. We purchased the home sight unseen which was common in 2020. Dave is very straight with you and will give his raw opinion no matter how much you like or dislike a property, which is appreciated and desired in an agent. We took a while before we purchased and Dave was very patient and reviewed and took video of all the properties we asked him to. Our posession date occurred before we were in location, Dave kept our keys and checked in on our new property until we arrived. Dave goes above and beyond and we couldn't be happier with him as our agent. As an aside our new neighbours were slightly miffed with the deal we got on our house as they said it will make it harder to get the price they want for a sale down the road.

We used Dave to buy our new home and sell our previous one. As second time homebuyers, we knew a little bit more about the process and what to expect. Dave naturally knew a lot about the areas we were interested in looking in, and not as much about the area we were selling our home in (being that he is based in St. Albert for the most part). That being said, he definitely did his research to support us in selling our home at the right price point and we were happy with outcome.
Dave and his team were patient, accommodating and professional. There were some hiccups in the purchase of our new home (specifically in getting accurate information from the sellers) but that was out of his control. For example, the listing agent of our new home incorrectly indicated details of the property that we didn’t catch until we bought it (gravel driveway when we were told it was paved, and we bought in the winter).
Overall, Dave was recommended to us by a family member and we would use him again.

Dave is a professional, knowledgeable, ethical realtor— all characteristics important to us. He and Cheryl worked very hard to market our home. Dave and Cheryl worked as a great team continually giving us feedback from viewings. Because of COVID and water issues our home took longer to sell but Dave and Cheryl helped us through these difficulties always going the extra mile. We would highly recommend Dave as your realtor to sell your home.
