Client Feedback
Excellent service. Justin is a great communicator who listens to his clients. He was very personable and we were fortunate to share our experience with his considerable knowledge and expertise.

Justin was hands down the best realtor we’ve ever used … and we’ve sold a lot of houses. He was professional and kind and went above and beyond for us. He helped relieve the stress of selling a home while living in a different province. I can’t recommend him enough if you are looking for a realtor who will get the job done. Hire him now!
Tammie Onslow
The Justin O’Connor Group with Sotheby’s Realty has looked after our home listings for many years now. I appreciate their positive fresh approach to handling our listings. Very professional and honest service. Justin has also looked after many of our clients, who have also been extremely satisfied with his results. I would never hesitate to use, or recommend, Justin and his group to anybody.

I have known Justin and his family for many years. Recently I had the pleasure of working with Justin, Miranda and the wonderful team at Sotheby's. They assisted me in a quick sale of my longtime home by consulting on a agreed price, tastefully and professionally staging my home and even helped me finish mowing the lawn to get the place ready for photos. I am very happy with the whole team at Justin O'Connor Group and would highly recommend them for all your real estate needs. Thanks so much Justin O'Connor Group!!
Penny Bugera
Working with Justin and his team was an absolute pleasure. I sold my house in a very tough market and Justin and Lynnea were with me every step of the way, making opportunities happen. I do not hesitate for a moment to recommend them highly… they are honest, hard-working, and true professionals.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Justin O'Connor and his team! From the very beginning, Justin was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. He took the time to really understand our needs and made the entire process of buying/selling (choose one or both) smooth and stress-free.
Justin’s expertise in the market and attention to detail gave us full confidence at every step. He and his team were always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer thoughtful guidance. Their dedication and hard work truly made a difference, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome.

If you are looking for one of the best to sell your home, look no further!
We recently hired Justin O’Connor from the Justin O’Connor Group - Sotheby’s International Realty Canada to sell our condo on Sunset Drive in Kelowna. We were introduced to Justin through our then tenant who was moving. Justin not only lives in the immediate area, but is extremely knowledgeable about the current real estate market in Kelowna.
Justin did a thorough job assessing what needed to be done to make our unit shine above others on the market. He took an active role in helping to get our unit ready for sale, going so far as to organize and supervise repairs himself. He touched base with us regularly throughout the entire process and kept us updated on our open houses and private showings, offers received and what was happening in the market while we were selling.
If you are looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, dedicated, professional and caring from beginning to end, Justin is an excellent choice and we highly recommend him.
Lorraine Emery

We recently purchased a home through Justin and Lynnea O’Connor of Sotheby’s|Canada
Justin O’Connor Group. We found their service to be second to none. Their professionalism and communication was top drawer while finding the property that best suited our needs. A very happy experience in dealing with both Lynnea and Justin O’Connor!
Melody Geddes
Moving from another city, it was easy to see Kelowna offers many choices when it comes to choosing a Realtor®. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, well-connected professional, look no further than Justin O’Connor. He is thorough in his appraisal work and negotiates with a quiet confidence. Justin takes the time to get to know his clients, listens to their plans and stay focussed on their goals. It was a pleasure to work with Justin and his Sotheby’s team. They always kept the process enjoyable and stayed in touch. Justin and his team know how to ease the stresses that come with making big decisions and… he has a great sense of humor!
Anne Johnston
I think I was still in shock last night when we went through this process. Grant and I have loved our home over the years and have always taken pride in updating it for our own enjoyment. When we decided to move to a view lot and build our dream home, we knew our home would be attractive given the location and lot size. Your advice regarding further updates and staging was obviously very advantageous. Thank you!! I would also like to let you and Justin know (as I said, I think I was in a state of shock last night) since I didn’t say so last night, we are so appreciative of everything you have done for us to make this sale happen. I totally understand all of the behind the scenes work you both did with gathering information and providing immediate response to any agent query. You both represented Grant and I very, very well! I know we can’t totally celebrate until March 23 however, the heavy lifting is done. I would not hesitate to recommend the Justin O’Connor Group to anyone buying or selling!
Grant and Joyce
Working with Sotheby's was nothing less than professional. From start to finish everything went smoothly. It's good to choose a realtor that puts the client's interest first. I would recommend anyone selling their property to not hesitate going with Justin and the team!!
Ernie and Sue
We worked with Lynnea & Justin for 2 of our properties now and I have to say that they make the process seamless and stress free. They also answered our thousands of questions and took the time to explain everything in detail. Will 100% keep using their services. Thank you so much
Alexandra Jacques-Simard
When selling your home, it is essential that you are using the most professional and experienced people to guide you through this often complex process. The Sotheby’s group met all of our criteria and requirements to ensure we valued our house at the right price and made sure the entire experience was handled properly from day one all the way through to the final closing. We would highly recommend their friendly expert services.
Guy and Sonja
We have worked with the Justin O Connor team for both the sale of our show homes over the past 5 years as well as for our own personal home sales. The professionalism and knowledge ensured the process proceeded smoothly.
They do their research and deliver first class service throughout the sale process which carries through to the after-sale support as well. As a custom homebuilder it is important that we have a smooth transition to our clients as we turn over our homes.
I recommend the team for your real estate needs. You need a great team in the ever-evolving market here in the Okanagan.
