Welcome to June,
June is the doorway to possibility, and the real estate market is buzzing with energy. The longer, sun-soaked days invite exploration—whether that means strolling through charming neighborhoods, attending open houses framed by blooming gardens, or finally picturing yourself in that dream kitchen or backyard oasis.
For sellers, it’s one of the most opportune times of the year. The pleasant weather makes homes look their best, and moving is far less stressful when the days are bright and school is out. For families, it’s the perfect window to relocate and get settled before the busy routines of September roll in.

With in-depth local knowledge and a passion for helping clients succeed, We’ll be with you through every showing, every question, and every decision.
Here’s to a summer filled with possibility – may June be the beginning of something truly special. Let’s turn your real estate goals into reality, one step at a time.
Warm Regards,

A stable real estate market trend continues in Victoria, BC
June 2, 2025 A total of 758 properties sold in the Victoria Real Estate Board region this May, 0.7 per cent fewer than the 763 properties sold in May 2024 but 18.1 per cent more than in April 2025. Sales of condominiums decreased by 6 per cent from May 2024 with 221 units sold. Sales of single family homes increased by 0.5 per cent from May 2024 with 401 sold.
“Victoria’s real estate market in the month of May was positive for consumers on both sides of the transaction,” said 2025 Victoria Real Estate Board Chair Dirk VanderWal. “Ample inventory coming to market outpaced brisk sales, which provided a consistent amount of choice and eased competition on high-demand properties. More balanced market conditions were supported by stability both in prices and in interest rates. The May market was resilient, and that steady pace is a little boring to report on but has been much more comfortable for buyers and sellers to navigate than markets we’ve seen in past years.”
There were 3,716 active listings for sale on the Victoria Real Estate Board Multiple Listing Service® at the end of May 2025, an increase of 8.5 per cent compared to the previous month of April and an 11.3 per cent increase from the 3,338 active listings for sale at the end of May 2024.


First Impressions Matter!
Achieving a picture-perfect home isn’t just about a quick fix or a surface-level tidy-up. It’s a comprehensive process that involves careful attention to every detail.
- Kitchen Ready – Get your kitchen ready for photos by clearing the countertops of any small appliances and clutter. Empty the sink, put away dishes, and store away cleaning supplies. To add a touch of life, consider placing a decorative item, like fresh flowers or a bowl of fruit, on the counter.
- Timing Is Crucial – Lighting plays a key role in interior design. Pick the optimal time of day to showcase your home with natural light. Open blinds and shades to let sunlight pour in, and make sure to turn on all the lights to create a warm, inviting ambiance
- Refresh Bathrooms – Remove all personal items from the bathroom, such as toiletries, toothbrushes, and bath mats. Hang fresh, Neutral Colour towels for a clean, inviting feel. Wipe down mirrors and faucets, and consider adding a simple touch like a candle or a small plant for extra warmth.
- Consider Flow – Be mindful of the room’s traffic flow. Make sure there’s ample space to move around comfortably and transition smoothly between different areas. Avoid placing large furniture or decorations in the main pathways.
- Declutter – Eliminate any items that could distract potential buyers, such as everyday objects like remotes, chargers, trash cans, and food. Try to tuck away shoes and children’s toys out of sight to keep the space looking clean and clutter-free.
