I have always believed that the home plays a central role in all of our lives, so I feel privileged to help people through the journey of buying or selling their home. I grew up with a love for design and have worked in the home design/décor industry in both Vancouver and Toronto. I love creating real connections and experiences with my clients through the lens of design.
I’m super excited to have welcomed our second child into the world and am currently on maternity leave. I plan to be kept busy with two little ones at home so for all real estate enquiries and assistance, please contact the team and they will be in touch with you.

Understanding the Latest Bank of Canada Announcement:
On April 16, 2025, the Bank of Canada maintained its key interest rate at 2.75%, pausing after seven consecutive cuts since June 2024. This decision reflects heightened uncertainty due to recent U.S. tariffs which have disrupted economic forecasts.
What’s going on with inflation?
March inflation sat at 2.3% – DOWN from February, but still above the 1.8% level seen in January.
Reasons include lower prices for travel, gas, and oil amid global economic worries and tariff threats. However the conclusion of the GST/HST holiday rekindled price increases especially in restaurants and housing. As global tariff issues continue- they might cause uncertain economic effects and potentially raise prices soon.
What Happens Next?
The Governing Council is cautiously prioritizing inflation control and economic stability. Some economists anticipate that the Bank of Canada might lower rates later this year due to trade uncertainties and the threat of U.S. tariffs.
The next Bank of Canada announcement is June 4th. Be sure to follow along for more details!

✨With the rising cost of homeownership in Vancouver, we’re seeing more friends teaming up to buy together—and this sale is the perfect example of that!
Two families, one smart purchase: one living upstairs, the other downstairs. The layout of a Vancouver Special made it all possible-these homes are built over just two levels, offering spacious floorplans and a fully above-grade lower level (aka: not your typical basement suite!).
Shared ownership isn’t just practical-it can be the key to getting into the market without compromising on space or lifestyle.

✨How to prepare your home for the market ✨
Before we list your home, our team at Resident Experts will do a thorough walkthrough to make sure we guide you effectively through every step. Here are 3 key tips to get your home market-ready and maximize your success:
1. DECLUTTER: Clean and clear all surfaces to make your space feel larger and more inviting- from excess remotes and electronics to magazines and trash bins to enhance visual appeal. Remember, too many personalized items can prevent potential buyers from picturing themselves in your home
2. FRESHEN UP: Give your space a refreshing update with a fresh coat of neutral paint—it can truly transform your home! Regular living often leaves walls scuffed and marked, so this simple touch can make a big difference. Also adding a fresh bouquet of flowers adds a welcoming touch
3. STAGE TO IMPRESS: Arrange your furniture and decor to accentuate the best features of your home. Consider what makes you love your home and focus on enhancing those key elements to showcase its full potential. This can significantly highlight your home’s strengths to potential buyers.
We know that selling your home can be an overwhelming and emotional experience, so we’re here to make the process as stress-free as possible. If you’re looking for more helpful tips or just want to chat about your options, feel free to reach out—we’re always here to help!

✨March Stats✨

“A market full of opportunity, but also hesitation”
The Greater Vancouver Realtors (GVR) reports that residential sales totalled 2,091 in March 2025, a 13.4% decrease from 2,415 sales from March 2024. This is 36.8% below the 10-year seasonal average.
“If we can set aside the political and economic uncertainty tied to the new U.S. administration for a moment, buyers in Metro Vancouver haven’t seen market conditions this favourable in years,” said Andrew Lis, GVR’s director of economics and data analytics.
Vancouver’s real estate marketing is facing a unique mix of conditions. Mortgage rates have dropped steadily since last April from 5% to current rates at 2.75% making borrowing more affordable than it’s been in years. Active listings on the MLS are their highest in nearly a decade giving buyers plenty of choices. Sellers appear ready to engage, but buyer activity has been slower than usual for this time of year.
DETACHED SALES:
Reached 527 sales, a 24.1% decrease from last March which was 694 sales. (BENCHMARK price is $2,034,400).
APARTMENT SALES:
Reached 1,084 sales, a 10.2% decrease from last March which was 1,207 sales. (BENCHMARK price is $767,300).
TOWNHOUSE SALES:
Reached 472 sales, a 4,6% decrease from last March which was 495 sales. (BENCHMARK price is $1,113,100).

🏡 Understanding Property Tax Assessments in BC 🏡
Your property tax assessment is an estimate of your home’s value, determined by BC Assessment, and used to calculate your annual property taxes. It’s based on factors like location, size, age, and recent sales in your area.
Dates to Remember:
* January: Assessment notices are mailed out
* January 31: Deadline to request a review if you disagree with your assessment
* July 2: Property taxes are DUE in most municipalities
Payment Options:
You can pay your property taxes through online banking by setting up your municipality as a payee and using your tax folio number as the account number. Many cities also offer pre-authorized monthly payment plans to help spread out the cost over the year. Alternatively, in-person or mail-in payments can be made at City Hall or by sending a cheque directly to your municipality.
✨Remember✨:Your assessment is NOT the same as market value—it may be higher or lower than what your home would sell for! Want to understand how it impacts you? Let’s chat!
