Brian & Taryn, and their hand picked team of service providers, make up The Very Real Estate Group. We believe that being real and honest instills trust and builds relationships, which are key to finding real estate success. We devote ourselves to the needs of our clients before, during and after their purchase or sale; providing resources and referrals to mortgage brokers, inspectors, tradespeople, home stagers, real estate lawyers or notaries or whatever your need may be. Our business model results in clients regularly referring others to us who appreciate the type of service and level of hard work and attention we provide.
We are based in beautiful Maple Ridge, British Columbia and provide real estate services throughout Greater Vancoiuver and the Fraser Valley. For real estate services in other parts of the province and country, we have an extensive referral network of quality REALTORS® that we would be happy to introduce & refer you to.
Taryn has been empowering people to make informed decisions and real estate transactions since 1989. She listens to her clients and is able to translate their concepts into reality. Relationships are important to Taryn and consequently the majority of her business is based upon referrals of friends and family from satisfied clients. Her years of experience have enabled her to become a strong and confident negotiator that you will be pleased to have in your corner.
Taryn is a dedicated wife, mother & grandmother whose value for family translates into care & attention to detail, putting you and your referrals in good hands.
Taryn is the experienced choice for your real estate needs and she is thrilled to be a part of the Danny & Claudio Team!
Brian loves working in the real estate industry and has been a licensed REALTOR® since 2012. With his mother in law (Taryn McKay) as his first business partner they formed Very Real Estate Agents. Formerly, Brian worked as a Pastor at Maple Ridge Community Church; as a result he is a skilled and passionate communicator, a dedicated and compassionate problem solver and he values the opportunity to serve people.
Less than 9 years into the industry Brian was asked to manage a real estate office of 70+ agents. This expanded his knowledge and experience within the industry; giving him exceptional insights that benefit his clients and team to this day. Now at Keller Williams Elite Realty, a much larger 300 agent office, Brian is happy to be assistant manager on call every 3rd week – allowing him more time for his clients; but still keeping one foot in the management and leadership side of the industry.
Brian is a loving and devoted husband to Carly and father to their three children. Outside of real estate, Brian enjoys spending time with his family and friends, serving and volunteering at their local church, working on his health and fitness at CrossFit Steps, and following the local Vancouver Sports Teams.
Brian likes that real estate allows him to be connected to the community he lives in. He serves clients relationally and professionally and has a goal of his clients becoming content and connected clients for life.
Taryn advocated for us when there were issues with the lawyers and bargained for us in a quick and convenient matter.
Brian was already familiar to us through church, one of the reasons we picked him. He is a great communicator and really helped sort through our options and had valuable advice.
Felt comfortable with Taryn & Brian’s Expertise in the industry.
Brian & Taryn are fabulous. We will be using them for our next transaction.
Brian and Taryn were very attentive to what our needs were.
Both Brian and Taryn understood my emotional tie to my home and were always helpful and patient.
As a single woman I was very happy to have Taryn negotiating for me. She did a great job, the entire process of buying and getting a mortgage was made easier because of Taryn’s professional expertise. Her housewarming gifts were extraordinary. Taryn is the “Martha Stewart” of Real Estate.
We were looking to move from Ontario and couldn't have had better luck in finding the best Real Estate agents in the area. Taryn organized all properties to view and took literally days just for us. When it came time to make a deal she was very knowledgable and professional. We were and felt very taken care of. Taryn is the best!
We definitely recommend Taryn as a realtor. She has helped us buy 3 houses and sell 2 houses and an apartment. She gives very good advice, and is very knowledgable and hard working. We have been very happy with all the houses that she's helped us buy. She makes the procedure understandable and less stressful because we feel we can trust her. She takes an interest in our family so she can be sure to meet our needs and exceed our expectations.
Taryn and Brian are sincere and on top things, also flexible with their time.
