When Alanna reached out to DCI Properties about her home on Queen Street in Chatham, she and her husband, Ricky, were going through a separation and ready to move forward. Selling their home was the first step in closing one chapter and starting the next, but they wanted to do it quietly and without the stress of a public listing.
Privacy was a top priority. Alanna had pre-existing health concerns, including respiratory issues, and with COVID still active, she didn’t feel comfortable having strangers coming through her home for showings. She also didn’t want their separation to become neighbourhood gossip or to feel like their personal life was on display.
Beyond that, the couple simply wanted a smoother process. They had lived in their home for several years, and while it held memories, it was time to move on. They didn’t want to spend money on repairs, prepare for showings, or deal with agent fees and commissions. They just wanted an easy, respectful sale that would let them move in separate directions with peace of mind.
Alanna had also spoken with another company but didn’t feel entirely confident in them. When she found DCI Properties, she said the difference was clear. Our team was honest, compassionate, and transparent. We met with her in person, listened to her story, and provided a fair, as-is offer with flexible closing options. No pressure, no showings, and no surprises.
The entire process was handled privately and professionally, giving Alanna and Ricky the flexibility to move forward without additional stress. For Alanna, it wasn’t just a transaction, it was a relief. A chance to focus on her health, her next steps, and a new beginning.
💬 Alanna’s Experience in Her Own Words
“Thank you so much to DCI Properties. Selling was so easy and convenient without having to fix up my house.
I definitely recommend using this company.
Staff are easy to communicate with and did everything they said they would.
Thanks so much.”
— Alanna Keith
