Matrix® Property Search
What’s a Matrix® property search and why is this search portal more valuable to you as a buyer than everything else online?
Matrix® provides our buyer clients with an email based web portal with customized property searches sending clients new listings in real time. Never miss a new listing again!
What makes Matrix® better than traditional searches like browsing realtor.ca?
- Customized searches mean you’ll never miss a new listing and you don’t have to search multiple sites
- Your searches can be refined with many different criteria, so they will be dialed right in
- New program updates mean we can now add sales prices to your search too, which is very helpful from a market perspective. You'll receive price reductions too.
- You can have multiple searches running at the same time. Maybe you're considering raw land or houses?
- Most buyers like to receive their emails once a day at 6pm in the evening. For example if you have 3 new listing matches in one day, they will come in one email at the same time, rather then one email per listing match
- The search criteria are easily adjusted, so as your plan evolves, so can your Matrix® alerts
Searching solo online is draining mentally, time consuming and always leaves you wondering ‘did I miss something?’. Let me help take the stress out of your research. Whether you are planning a purchase this year or in the future, Matrix® is a powerful tool.
If you’re interested in this service please send me a message and I’ll give you a call and get you set up. You can also visit my buyers page and request to be added to PCS directly.

What is a Free Market Evaluation?
A market evaluation is an assessment of the current value of your home. The evaluation process is important, and should not be rushed. Market research is vital in assessing value, as all homes have individual characteristics. I will prepare a professional package for you which will include information on the subject property, all the comparable properties and a copy of my marketing plan. I will answer any questions and give you all the time you need to decide on what you would like to do.

Zoning Bylaws & Property Purchases
Each municipality has different zoning bylaws. I can’t stress how important it is for a buyer and their REALTOR® to investigate zoning questions together. Scanning the zoning bylaws online from the listing agents information package is not enough information for you to rely on.

Selling Your Acreage?
An acreage is a unique product with lots of potential for problems during the sale process. I make the process as seamless as possible and my sellers benefit greatly from my expertise and organizational skills. I have sold many acreages during my nearly 16 years as a REALTOR® and that is crucial when negotiating on behalf of my seller. I know what’s acceptable to include or exclude in the contract and the pros and cons of each buyer’s negotiating position.

Ready to Downsize Your Home?
We have a large senior population in the Cowichan Valley, and for many of them, downsizing makes a lot of sense. It’s a great opportunity to release capital tied up in a property that may now be too large or too expensive to maintain. Moving to a more manageable home or apartment, freeing up funds to provide more financial security, taking that dream holiday or updating your vehicle can be a tempting thought.
