Buying a home can be intimidating, regardless of where you are in life. Trust, mutual goals, and understanding are crucial, and your interests are our top priority. Whether you’re just starting or are well into your homeownership journey, our team is here to assist you every step of the way.

First-Time Home Buyer

Choosing to buy your first home is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make in your life. For this reason, we don’t just set you up on a Paragon search, we simplify the process every step of the way ensuring you feel knowledgeable, secure, and confident in your decisions. Here is what the process will look like:

  1. Customized Search Process: Our team will personally search through and send you listings catered to your individual desires, rather than setting you up on an automatic listing notification. We highlight the pros and cons that accompany a specific listing so you’re not stuck digging for the details.
  2. In-Depth Analysis of Neighborhood/Strata: When moving into a new neighborhood or strata, navigating its nuances can be challenging. We specialize in various strata companies across Vancouver, ensuring thorough research to safeguard your significant investment
  3. Aggressive Negotiation Tactics: In such a competitive real estate market like Vancouver, first time home buyers often fall short in a multiple offer situation. For this reason, our team is especially aggressive in these negotiations, ensuring the highest likelihood of getting your dream home.

Upsizing/Downsizing

Whether you’re moving from a condo into a single-family home, or are an empty-nester looking to downsize, we have the techniques to make the transition hassle-free!

  1. Extensive Support: When buying a new property while selling your current one, it can feel overwhelming with so much happening at once. Our team provides comprehensive support to ensure every aspect is taken care of.
  2. Collaborative Environment: We collaborate with you to make the transition into your next phase as smooth as possible, taking the time to understand what is best for you and your family.
  3. Timely Negotiation Tactics: When you need to sell before you buy, there’s a delicate balance that happens during the negotiation process. We negotiate strategically to ensure you receive the most convenient closing dates on both transactions.
