Are you a first-time home buyer with a limited budget or an empty nester looking to downsize your Nanaimo home? Size of property is another key factor. Are you looking for acreage in Nanaimo or would you prefer a compact low maintenance lot or even a condo or townhouse where strata look after the upkeep of the property? Price of course is central when it comes to house hunting. What is your price range?

Special features – Are you looking for a view,  Waterfront or a home with additional accommodation, a home with a workshop , low maintenance yard or something else?

As a Nanaimo Realtor I like to meet with my clients before we start shopping for homes. It is best to discuss all the above-mentioned factors so that we can focus on exactly what you are looking for.

One of the ways I help my real estate clients is to set up an email alert system called a Matrix Portal where we enter your search criteria into the MLS so that you are notified, by email, whenever a property meeting your criteria is listed on the MLS.
