What our clients say about us
Extremely please with our new home
We are extremely pleased with our decision to purchase our gorgeous new home from Brett Giese and Crowne Pacific Developments. We downsized and modernized. Our home was everything we wanted and more. We had choices to personalize and upgrade our home. Brett worked with us ensuring our timeline for our move from our old home to our new home went perfectly. When completed our new home was move in ready both inside and out. The purchase of our home from Brett Giese was an enjoyable experience. Brett was extremely professional, knowledgeable, respectful and patient. He delivered on his contract and we are very pleased with every aspect of our business relationship with Crowne Pacific Development Corp.
Construction Coordinator and Site Manager Amber Chaba assisted us with all of the necessary requirements to bring our home to completion so that we were completely satisfied. Amber did an exceptional job and we could always depend on Amber to get us to the next stage and answer any questions or concerns we had. We were never under any stress when working with Amber.
Both Brett and Amber have continued to ensure that all our questions or concerns are dealt with even after the sale completed. What a pleasure knowing that we are still taken care of and we have the assurance knowing that they are both there for us. We highly recommend Crowne Pacific Development Corp.
