I've been in the Real Estate industry for three years now, and I've spent over a year with INITIA. I can confidently say that this brokerage is the best I've ever experienced. My broker, Jonathan, is truly exceptional; his guidance, knowledge and support are unparalleled. He goes above and beyond to ensure that his agents succeed each time.

I've been working as a real estate agent for half a decade now, and Initia Real Estate is by far the best brokerage I've been with. The environment is incredibly chill, and even though it's a larger brokerage, Jon makes it feel like a close-knit team. He is always quick to respond whenever I need help, which has made a huge difference. The no monthly fees and low closing fees are a game-changer. I know I'll be staying here for the foreseeable future—it's a brokerage that truly cares about its agents. Highly recommend!

Gary Yuan Chun was the first person we met in this city, and we bought our house through him few years ago. I’m confident that his expertise in his field has stood the test of time. He provided us with valuable advice, drawing from his extensive experience as a real estate broker. Whether you’re dealing with a large or small budget, Gary treats every client with equal care and professionalism. That’s the impression he leaves on his customers. We’ve remained friends, and it’s absolutely worth having such a reliable consultant as a lifelong partner.

As a fellow realtor, working with Jonathan has been an absolute pleasure. They’re truly one of the best in the business. Their professionalism, deep knowledge of the market, and genuine commitment to getting great results really stand out.
Highly recommend them!

I gave my property to rent with one of their agents named Yinka, gave the property in more than average condition. Got back the unit in damaged condition with signs of tenants smoking cannabis inside the unit. Broken doors, messed up walls, non functioning garage and ruined up carpet. They will not take any accountability what so ever. The incompetent and unprofessional agent ran away from the situation like it’s not her responsibility and asked me to read the law. Lease was broken in the middle of nowhere and the tenants damaged the whole unit. Tenants would not be held responsible, they can walk free after all this damage. I have lost trust in “property management” after this experience. No inspection was done after taking money from me every month. You could at least expect a clean unit when you return the unit. Save your money and look somewhere else. Just my detailed and honest review.

“I have been a realtor with this brokerage from almost 2 years, I cannot speak highly enough about this brokerage! The team is incredibly professional, and my broker is truly a gem. He is always available when I need guidance, no matter the time—whether after office hours or even on weekends, he’s there to help. His depth of knowledge and willingness to assist in every situation makes me feel confident and supported. If you’re looking for a brokerage that goes above and beyond, this is the place!”

Be cautious if you decide to use their realtor to purchase a house, and hope everything goes smoothly without any issues. If problems arise, the realtor will not assist you, and the company will not take any responsibility.

According to real estate policy, your agent should be present during the entire inspection, but the agent we hired from Initia only opened the door and left. After the inspection, some issues were found, and the seller agreed to fix them. I asked my agent to include these items in the contract, but the agent assured me that it wasn’t necessary and that the repairs would be done. Unfortunately, after we took possession, none of the agreed repairs were completed.

When we discovered major issues that were missed during the inspection, we tried contacting the company and we were simply told, "There’s nothing we can do—just take the loss."

We also found that the realtor lacked experience, was unfamiliar with the Edmonton area, didn’t understand our needs, and couldn’t provide constructive advice. Their negotiation skills were poor, and we ended up paying more than we should have compared to similar properties in the area. The whole experience was very unpleasant.
