Testimonials

Working with Gordon Clayton at Remax has completely renewed our faith in realtors!

As a self professed ‘island girl’ getting ready to marry ‘a city boy’ in September, we knew finding the right place wouldn’t be easy. We had different needs for our future home, but from the very beginning, he struck the perfect balance of casual professionalism—making us feel completely at ease while handling every detail with remarkable precision and care.

What truly sets Gord apart is his honesty and integrity. He showed us the good, the bad, and the ugly of each property without hesitation, ensuring we were making informed decisions rather than just trying to make a sale. When another realtor’s mistake created a challenging situation, he handled it with grace and creativity—finding a solution that honoured everyone involved. That kind of professionalism and heart is almost unheard of these days.

He also demonstrated incredible adaptability. When our budget unexpectedly changed, he didn’t skip a beat. He calmly adjusted the search, reassured us, and somehow still found us the perfect place—a home that reflects both of our personalities and checks all the right boxes. His ability to navigate shifting circumstances with grace and focus gave us so much peace of mind during what could have been a stressful process.

Beyond his expertise, what makes him so easy to trust is who he is as a person. He’s not just a realtor—he’s a pickleball player who genuinely loves the coast, his family, and his lifestyle. His passion for the area comes through in everything he does, from his deep local knowledge to the thoughtful recommendations he shared about neighbourhoods, builders, inspectors and even the best places to grab a cup of coffee. 

His family has 100+ years of roots on the Sunshine Coast, which means he knows the market inside and out and is incredibly well-connected.

For the first time ever, we felt like the commission he earned was too small for the level of service he provided. He’s a class act, and working with him has been an absolute privilege. If you’re looking for a realtor who will treat you like family, deliver expert guidance, and go above and beyond—look no further.

Thanks Gord

"Gord willingly worked with me and showed me dozens of properties even though he knew I wasn't in a position to buy for some time. He was always available, patient and very knowledgable which provided the reassurance I needed to buy my first house. Gord is very easy to work with and I really enjoyed the experience. I feel that I have also made a friend. I have already recommended Gord to some people who are thinking of buying and selling over the next couple of years."

An Extra Mile

Help Through the Confusion

"Just wanted to say "thank you" for coming over today and being willing to take this on for us. We have been feeling lost and confused and for myself, a wee bit frightened. We really are not difficult Gord...we just want someone to take us seriously, tell us the truth and be looking out for us a little. The very fact that you are willing to do all of the "hard stuff" for us speaks volumes about the kind of man and real estate agent you are. Please know that we trust you and your judgement and will ALWAYS recommend you to anyone and everyone that we can."

- Andrena (and Clint)
