Karel Palla & Darryl Sjerven
Specializing in Vancouver Real Estate
Karel and Darryl are full service real estate experts who strive to service the entire spectrum of the exclusive luxury condominium market in Vancouver. Our uncompromising professionalism and drive has yielded numerous record breaking sales in several Vancouver areas, including setting the highest price per square foot sale of a luxury condo in the West End, beating our own previous record.
In 2010 we joined forces. While we were both experienced, successful realtors in our own right, we realized the advantage that a partnership of expertise and knowledge could bring to our clients. With complimentary skills, over 35 years of combined experience in the Vancouver market, and a shared belief in a client-centered approach, we take pride in providing the very best services for our clients and strive to make the real estate process as informative, stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
Our clients often comment on our outstanding service, our integrity, our ability to listen and understand their needs, and our professionalism. Feel free to contact us anytime with any real estate questions you may have and we’re also happy to put you in touch with any of our previous clients for a reference check.
