Exceptional homes. Expertly presented.

Pricing comes out of a comparative market analysis built specifically for your block, your house type, and the buyers who were active in your micro-pocket the last time a similar home traded. We look at recent sales, current competing inventory, the trajectory of benchmark pricing in your housing type, and any condition or improvement variables specific to your property. The recommendation is a number we can defend — not a guess and not a wish.

Real estate commissions in British Columbia are negotiable and paid out of the sale proceeds at closing — you do not pay anything up front. We discuss our specific commission structure during the consultation, alongside a complete net-proceeds estimate that shows exactly what the sale will deliver after all costs. Beyond commission, your only out-of-pocket costs are typically minor preparation expenses we agree on in advance, plus your legal fees at closing.

Timing depends on the housing type, the price point, the time of year, and most importantly, whether the home is priced correctly at launch. Well-prepared homes priced to the market typically sell within three to four weeks. Homes priced above market or with significant condition issues can take materially longer. The Market Update section above shows current sales-to-active ratios for detached, townhome, and condo segments, which is the best read on current pace by housing type.

Preparation depends on your home’s current condition and price point. At minimum, every home benefits from a professional clean, decluttering, and in most cases professional staging. Some homes benefit from paint, minor cosmetic updates, or partial staging beyond that. A small subset benefit from more substantial pre-listing investment. We walk through your home before any decisions are made and recommend only what the return justifies. The goal is the highest sale price net of preparation cost, not the highest preparation budget.

Every listing we represent gets a full marketing package as a baseline — professional photography, full MLS placement, and targeted digital and print campaigns, with drone, video, floor plans, and a dedicated property microsite layered in where the home and price point warrant. We walk through the marketing plan with you specifically before launch, but the principle is consistent: the first three weeks on market is the highest-attention window a listing ever gets, and the marketing has to be at full strength on day one.

It depends on your financial position, the type of property you are buying next, and your tolerance for carrying two properties briefly. In a balanced or seller-favouring market, selling first is often the cleaner path because you know exactly what your equity is. In a buyer-favouring market or when buying a unique replacement property, buying first with a longer subject removal period can make sense. We map both scenarios out during the consultation and walk through the financing implications with your mortgage broker if helpful.

Yes. Scott and Carson personally lead every offer negotiation on the team’s residential listings, and Jamie leads the negotiation on land and development files. There is no junior agent or transaction coordinator handling the offer process. The principal you meet at the consultation is the principal at the table when offers come in — that continuity matters because every back and forth depends on having the full context of the file in your head.

Three things, briefly. Street-level pricing accuracy — our CMAs pull from your block and micro-pocket, not from postal-code averages. Production-grade marketing on every listing — the full package is the baseline, not an upsell. And principals on every file — you work with Scott, Carson, or Jamie from consultation through closing, not a handoff team. The longer answer is in the What Sets Us Apart section above.
