There hasn't been this much real estate for sale in BC in over ten years.

Our newest short film walks through what's actually happening with BC inventory in 2026, the regional numbers, why it built up the way it did, and what smart buyers are doing about it. If you're thinking of buying anywhere from Victoria to Surrey, give it six minutes.

A BC home inspection costs around $500. A bad one can cost the buyer $50,000.

Our newest short film walks through what a great BC inspector actually looks for in a house — roof, attic, foundation, electrical, plumbing, HVAC — and the things even a thorough inspection still cannot catch. If you're house-shopping anywhere from Victoria to Surrey, give it six minutes before you write the next offer.

Detached, condo, or townhouse, only one held its value across BC in 2026, and we don't think it's the one most people would guess.

Our newest short film walks through what each property type did this year, what's driving the gap, and where we'd be looking right now if we were buying in BC. We've pulled the numbers from REBGV, VREB, BCREA, CMHC, and the BC Government.

In a buyer's market, you'd think buyers couldn't lose. In 2026 BC, most still are.

We put together a short documentary on the seven specific mistakes we keep seeing — and how to avoid every one of them.

Decade-high inventory. Sellers negotiating again. And buyers walking out of the market with worse deals than they should.

The "vibes are bad" headline got a lot of attention this spring. We read it, then pulled the data.

BC sales are down about 60% from peak. Prices are down 4 to 7%. Those two numbers don't normally live in the same sentence — and that gap is the entire story.

Short documentary on what's actually happening in BC real estate right now, why prices aren't following volume, and who quietly wins in markets like this.

Rates are coming down. So why aren't BC home prices?

That question keeps coming up at every kitchen table we shoot, so we sat down and walked through it. Six minutes, plain English, with the actual math.

The rate path. Why cuts don't mean instant price drops. The 2027 renewal cliff. Variable vs fixed in 2026. And the four things any BC buyer should do before they shop.

If you're thinking about moving to Vancouver Island, this one's for you.

I've shot more than two hundred properties on the Island over the years, and there's a pattern in this market that mainland investors keep missing — the geography itself.

We put together a short documentary on why Vancouver Island remains Canada's most underrated real estate play in 2026. The demographic story. The lifestyle premium. The hard supply constraints. Three Island cities I'd put on every relocation client's radar. And the risks I'd warn a friend about.

These five BC neighborhoods just had the steepest price corrections in a decade.

Some are buying opportunities. Some are warnings.

We pulled the 2026 BCREA, REBGV, VREB, VIREB, and Fraser Valley data and put together a short documentary on what the headlines aren't telling you about the neighborhood-level market in BC right now.

Detached down 3.7% YoY. Condos down 6.9%. But the real story is in the pockets — and which corrections are real value versus which are value traps.

The difference between a room that looks designed and a room that FEELS designed isn't the budget. It's the system.

We put together a short documentary on how to design your home like a professional — reading the space, placing furniture, choosing colors with the 60-30-10 rule, layering light the way pros do, and the small details that change a room entirely.

For first-time designers, weekend rearrangers, and anyone who's ever stood in their living room and thought "something's off but I don't know what."

Design the room. Design the feeling.
