Tucked onto a quiet, tree-lined street, the home offers a bright southeast exposure and a layout that feels both open and comfortable. The living space flows naturally outdoors to an expansive patio that truly extends the home, creating a setting that works just as well for quiet mornings as it does for hosting friends.

Why Pricing Your Home Correctly Matters 💫
•
•
The first two weeks on the market are critical. That’s when your home receives the most attention, generates the highest level of buyer interest, and creates the strongest opportunity for competition. Pricing plays a major role in how buyers perceive value from day one.
Buying decisions can often be emotional, so we try to evaluate your home through the eyes of today’s buyer, while also recognizing the unique qualities that made you fall in love with it in the first place.
Our pricing process is thoughtful, strategic and based on real market data and knowledge. We don’t “buy listings” by suggesting unrealistic prices. Instead, we position your home based on where the market truly is today using current market data and local insights, including:
* Recent sales and trends in the neighbourhood and building
* Community growth and future development plans
* Proximity to schools, parks, transit, and amenities
* The broader market conditions
Sometimes that means having honest conversations about current market conditions or pricing expectations. Our role is to provide clear, transparent guidance so you can make informed decisions.
Have any questions? We’d love to chat!

✨April Market Stats✨
Diverging market trends continue as detached home sales gain momentum
•
•
Home sales registered on the MLS in Metro Vancouver remain relatively flat compared to April last year, but a divergence is emerging between market segments.
The Greater Vancouver REALTORS (GVR) reports that residential sales in the region totalled 2,110 in April 2026, a 2.5% decrease from the 2,163 sales recorded in April 2025. This was 22.9% below the 10-year seasonal average (2,735).
“Last month we noted that a divergence was emerging between sales trends in the detached and multi-family segments, which continued in April,” said Andrew Lis, GVR chief economist and vice-president data analytics. “Sales of detached homes have been gaining year-over-year, while sales in the multi-family segment have declined, and this pattern is consistent across most areas. The fact this pattern is so broad-based reduces the likelihood what we’re seeing is just a blip in the data since the momentum isn’t isolated to small pockets of the market.”
Detached home sales may be signalling a shift in market confidence as activity continues to pick up this spring. While prices across all segments remain relatively stable thanks to healthy inventory levels, growing demand in the detached market could soon spill into condos and townhomes heading into summer.
With inventory levels remaining high and interest rates far more manageable than they were a few years ago, it continues to be a strong opportunity for buyers. If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines or feeling unsure, now may be a good time to review your finances and explore your options.

Congrats to our clients on securing their stunning new Fairview townhome!
What a weekend. Wedding celebrations followed by writing an offer within 24 hours. We knew this one would be competitive, with over 30 groups through on opening weekend. We came in prepared, acted quickly and put forward a strong, clean offer with a clear strategy.
After months of searching, this was the one. The feeling was immediate. Beautiful layout, great location, friends across the street and an easy commute to work.
In a market like this, reputation matters. Strong relationships and trust between agents can make a real difference when it counts.
So excited for our clients and this next chapter ahead.

What Is Property Transfer Tax in BC? 🏡
•
•
Property Transfer Tax (PTT) is a one-time tax paid when real estate changes ownership in British Columbia.
Who pays it? The buyer When is it paid? On Completion Day, when title transfers How is it paid? Your lawyer or notary collects the funds from you as part of your closing costs and remits it directly to the province
How It’s Calculated Example on a $1,000,000 home: $2,000 (1% of $200,000) $16,000 (2% of $800,000) Total PTT = $18,000
First-Time Home Buyer Exemption
Qualifying buyers may receive:
✔️ Full exemption: up to $500,000
✔️ Partial exemption: $500,000–$835,000
✔️ Reduced exemption: $835,000–$860,000
✔️ No exemption: above $860,000
💡 Maximum savings: up to $8,000
New Build Exemption Buying a newly built home? You may qualify for: ✔️ Full exemption up to $1.1M ✔️ Partial exemption up to $1.15M ✔️ Must be your principal residence
💡 Potential savings: up to ~$18,000
Understanding PTT and potential exemptions is key to budgeting your true closing costs. If you’re planning to buy, make sure this is factored into your numbers.
