- Brendan is a very knowledgeable realtor who goes above & beyond to help his clients. His quick response to questions & updates on the sale of our property really helped us as first time sellers. He’s professional yet very personable as well. We sold our property in 4 days & at a significantly higher profit than expected. The entire process from meeting Brendan right up to the closing of the property went smoothly & without a single glitch. I would highly recommend him as your realtor.
Linda St.Pierre
- We owned our home for 32 years and had never sold one before, but Brendan and his team walked us through every step of the process to a great outcome. Brendan’s real estate expertise and insights were spot on, his positivity always reassuring. We appreciated that he always listened to us and was never pushy. We were also impressed with the professionals he has working with him who helped us at various stages. We happily recommend Duckworth Homes!

They went out of their way to make sure I knew every part of the process and hept me informed with every detail. I would highly recommend him as he is a true professional in the business!
Cory Scothon
- Brendan was the best realtor we could have hoped for. He was always available to answer all our questions and give us guidance when needed but was not overbearing in doing so. He made sure we were well connected to new listings quickly. He followed up with us on a regular basis and after we bought our home he was very helpful in getting us through the whole process of purchasing. Also helpful with referrals after purchase for work we wanted to have done. Highly recommend!
