Testimonials

"Grant Tweed acted as our realtor in the sale of our grain farm situated near Brandon in Manitoba. Grant demonstrated a lot of patience as it took well over a year for the deal to be finalized. I am sure our purchaser would join us in saying that only someone as resourceful as Grant could have made it happen for all of us. With his family roots firmly based in Manitoba, Grant has the contacts to overcome any problem that may arise and with his quiet friendly way he was always a pleasure to deal with."
Paddy Cooke

"If it hadn't been for Grant's knowledge of both the current valuations of property and his connections in the business community, we would still have our property for sale. He delivered on what he promised."
Pat Haggerty, Canada

"Grant Tweed helped me to come over to Canada in many ways. His quiet and somewhat cheeky nature charmed me from the start and instantly I was able to believe in him. Not knowing the area and indeed the farming I was pleased to discuss anything along those lines with him.

The area is vast and the landscape varies from field to field the soil texture, drainage and land quality in general is something that Grant knows like the back of his hand.
I came over on my own with little experiance but lots of dreams if it wasn't for Grant Tweed I would not be here today.

His knowledge of machinery was a great asset too. We are not familiar with the vast array of implements available. Sure you can read as many farming papers as you want but the best form of advertising is by word of mouth. Machinery suggested by Grant is still working on my farm today."

I met Grant Tweed in the fall of 2000 when I visited the Brandon area to find out about farming opportunities in Manitoba. I spent about two weeks there & during that time Grant showed me several farms in various areas of the province. He provided me with straightforward information & took time to point out both the positive & negative aspects of the farming industry. We also visited livestock auctions, equipment dealers & government agriculture offices.

We maintained contact by phone & E-mail &, after due consideration, I returned in the fall of 2001 with the intent of buying a farm. At first we revisted some of the farms I had seen the previous year & then looked at farms that had recently come on the market. I did choose a farm in the area Southeast of Brandon & with Grant's assistance negotiated a purchase that allowed for my circumstances as a non-Canadian. Allowances were made for me to have time to obtain a Visa & sell my farm in Ireland. All together I stayed about a month on that visit & during that time Grant helped me to gather information I would need for my Visa application & introduced me to professional services I would need such as a bank, lawyer, accountant, etc.

I arrived in late February of 2003 & Grant met me at the Winnipeg airport. Over the next few days he helped me to take possession of the farm, get my various Canadian registrations (health care, social insurance, GST, Etc.). Later he provided advice on my cattle & equipment purchases.

Throughout the process, Grant was helpful in providing information on farms & the local communities but at no time did I feel pressured to make a decision nor was I pushed toward a particular property. He has a broad range of experience & I continue to seek his honest advise on farming issues.

"Greetings Grant. Carol and I would like to thank you for the professional manner in which you handled the sale of our home in Killarney Manitoba earlier this year. Your use of the internet and newspaper ads were instrumental in developing an interest in the property. The home sold in a short period of time for a reasonable market price. We were both very satisfied with your efforts on our behalf and would recommend you to all persons requiring the services of a Real Estate Professional."
Paul and Carol Melanson, Morden, Manitoba

"My wife Sharon and myself would like to say just a few things about the sale of our home. Mr. Tweed realized he was selling our home, not just a house and he was able to find just the right buyer to appreciate those things we considered special in our home. We found Grant to be totally professional, extremely trustworthy and very responsible to our needs in handling all the necessary papers and details. "
Fred and Sharon Forster

Kathy and I would like to take this time and thank you Grant for all that you did for us on the purchase of the property in South-western Manitoba. We have been looking for property in Saskatchewan or Manitoba. Grant Tweed was the only Realtor that took the time to aid us in finding the right property for us. From taking pictures that we asked for; to finding us a lawyer in Brandon that would handle the purchase of our property. Once again Thank-you!
