Agent Will

My business is heavily buyer focussed.  This was not by design but rather a result of where I stand in my career.  When I started in real estate I was new to the city and did not know very many people.  Some may think being new to a city would be a difficult obstacle to […]

But not enough to really matter, it seems. The Board is so busy that they’re working overtime putting in numbers today so I haven’t updated the weekly stats but a thought occurred to me as another stat to look at.
Everywhere you drive it seems there’s another for sale sign or direction arrow and that […]

Just wanted to let those who are interested know that we’ve scored the floor plans for Wall Centre False Creek and Millennium Water Phase I and II as well as 1212 Howe.
Yeah!  Floor Plans!

The Aquilini Investment Group has teamed up with marketing strong arm Rennie to bring us this latest addition to the South East False Creek Flats, the Maynards Block.  You likely have passed by this veritable establishment on your way to the downtown core or in to Kitsilano.  Right now it is the Maynards Auction House, […]

Oh goody.  850 Burrard has a suspected drug lab which has been busted by the VPD and the fire department late Thursday night.  Residents within the building reported smelling a strange smoke from a unit and were evacuated.  The Vancouver Hazmat squad has gone in to dismantle the as yet unreported type of operation.  This […]

So I am at an open-house with a client one day and we were really excited to go see this home.  Emphasis is on the past tense.  From the pictures, the description, and the price it all sounded good.  From the curb it looked good, too.
Then we went inside.  First problem, the floors are all […]

Gastown.  A neighbourhood so great they’ve even got their own website.  There are only three heritage zoned areas in all of Vancouver, those being Yaletown, Chinatown, and the topic for this post, Gastown.  And like the other two, the branding of the neighbourhood is so powerful that developers are keen to try to extend the […]
