Wishing you a peaceful and prosperous New Year!

This was a great wrap up the year being the last blood donor in the Victoria Uptown clinic for 2020! Huge shout out to Lance, Anna and Bowman (and the crew) for all your amazing work and dedication all year!

Last one for the year! Congrats to my wonderful client on the purchase of her new home!

Hope you’re having a simply wonderful Christmastime! Best wishes to you and yours.

Don’t forget to participate in our Coldwell Banker Oceanside Christmas Drive for those families who need a little extra help this year. From November 20th to December 4th, both of our offices on 3194 Douglas Street and 117-662 Goldstream Avenue will be available to receive your kind generous donations! Let’s come together, spread some holiday cheer and earn some holiday baked goods (made by my other half Melissa) for your contributions! Stay safe!

That is a lot of desks. I may have assembled one myself in the last few months . https://www.niagarafallsreview.ca//canadians-assembled-631

I've spent the first year of my real estate career working through a pandemic. You wouldn't know it with how busy we have all been. Single Family Detached and Townhouses are sold within the first few days of being listed, most getting multiple offers. If you have been thinking of selling, now is the time! https://canadanewsmedia.ca/2020-on-track-to-be-most-active/

My Grandpaw was a member of the Royal Canadian Air Force, completing 37 trips in the Lancaster bomber. He was super proud the day I joined the Forces. Today, I remember him, as I do every day, as well as my nana, who always loved to show me off in my navy uniform . Wishing everyone a safe Remembrance Day.

One of my favourite days...key day! Congrats to Kim on retirement and this lovely home in Parksville!

Happy Halloween Everyone! Whatever you have planned tonight, stay safe.

Today, we wear a poppy to remember the sacrifices of all our soldiers and veterans.

OCTOBER MARKET STATS ARE OUT! "Once again, another month concluded with numbers that surprised many of us," said Victoria Real Estate Board President Sandi-Jo Ayers. "Sales for October broke the record for the month and inventory continues to be snapped up quickly. Due to this high demand, low supply environment, we are seeing many multiple offer situations. Condos and single family homes both continue to be popular choices for buyers." Here’s a little breakdown: ... - Last month's sales were 59.9% more than a year before. - There were 19.7% fewer homes listed than the previous year. - The benchmark price for a single-family home was $859,900. Feel free to call if you have any questions!
