Working with Frank was impressive. He sold my house in 4 days, and at 99% of the asking price. He then helped my girlfriend and I find our dream home, and stuck with us through a challenging deal to get it done. His professionalism and skill is unmatched in the industry. Frank takes a dedicated approach to serving his client's interests in the best way possible. It was truly an honour to meet and work with him. I've referred my friends and family to him, because I have complete trust and faith in his abilities. Also, he's just a really nice, down-to-earth guy and a pleasure to deal with.

We interviewed several realtors as part of our due diligence to sell our family home. Frank had just recorded a sale on the same street and, as a high-ranking candidate, we decided to enlist his services. And are we glad we did. Frank’s strengths as a respected, trusted advisor are complemented by his demonstrated professionalism, knowledge and patience.
Within hours of our engagement, Frank had already made contact with a potential buyer and three days later, the house had been sold. No time to even arrange a sign until one was planted firmly on our front lawn with a prominent “SOLD” for

Frank Riga helped us sell our house and we couldn't imagine a better and more professional experience from start to finish. Frank communicated with us throughout the entire process, answered all our questions and it was evident that he is excellent in what he does every step of the way. He truly worked for us and with us, and thanks to his marketing strategies and exposure, he managed to sell our house within 12 hours of listing for over 10% of the asking price. We never worked with a realtor like Frank before and we will never work with anyone else from this point on. Thanks Frank!

Frank goes definitely goes above and beyond and I couldn't of asked for anything less.

Frank is such a great agent and person to work with. He recently helped us close our first purchase and as first time home buyers we had a lot of questions along the way. Frank is very knowledgeable and honest and always answered any questions we had right away. He is very professional and is a great person to have by your side when making the decision to purchase a home. You can see he is very passionate about his job as an agent and he really makes you feel that he cares about your purchase like it was his own. Highly recommended! We will definitely be contacting Frank in the future for selling
