Buy with Confidence
find your new home
Buying a home or property is a big decision. When you’re considering a purchase, it is so important to have someone experienced that can work for you to provide the information and advice you need in an honest, professional and timely manner.
What to expect
The Buying Process
Discover your needs
I like to start with a phone call, or we can meet for a coffee, so I can learn about what you are looking for and also discuss current market conditions and best strategies. If you don't already have a pre-approval in place, and need a recommendation for a mortgage broker, I have excellent referrals.
Customized Listings Search
After our conversation, I’ll subscribe you to a personalized email system, called MATRIX®, that will alert you to new listings that match your search criteria. As soon as a listing comes on, you will be pinged with an email notification! It’s addicting, and will keep you dialed right into your search.

After our conversation, I’ll subscribe you to a personalized email system, called MATRIX®, that will alert you to new listings that match your search criteria. It’s addicting, and will keep you dialed right into your search. Most Buyers opt to receive the listings once a day at 6pm, we can add sale prices too.
Property Viewings
When we view properties, I take extra care in showing you the benefits and drawbacks of the home, location and neighbourhoods. I will always be honest with you; it is important that you notice the potential negatives of a property, as well as its positives. We will cover the condition and value of the property, and how it compares to other property sales in the area.
Making an offer
When we have found a listing you would like to write an offer on, we will brainstorm all the details together and I will help you by preparing a contract that both protects your interests and ensures you have all your due diligence boxes checked. I’ll also provide comparable sales and give you advice on the property’s value, helping you establish your offer price. I’ve been involved in hundreds of property transactions. I will help you negotiate the best offer you can.
Closing on your new home
Once we have an accepted offer, I will refer you to trusted professionals (home and septic inspectors, local water companies, etc.) and guide you through your conditions step by step, helping keep you organized and informed. After your transaction is completed (KEY DAY!), I will be there to meet you with the keys to your new home.
Our relationship won’t end there, I’ll always be available to answer any questions you might have. After over a decade in this industry, many of my clients are repeat buyers or referrals. I will provide your family and friends with the same exceptional service and attention every time.

"Meredith was the perfect fit for our recent sale of our home. This was a family home I had strong emotional ties to and was difficult to let go of. Meredith was always available for a phone call or as I called them mini therapy sessions, to help guide me through. Clear, friendly, empathetic, confident, knowledgeable and an all around great human being. Without a doubt I would highly recommend working with her. A special mention to Tom. A great sense of humor and quick response during the often chaotic scheduling frenzies."

"Hands down, Meredith Prescott is absolutely the BEST REALTOR you could find in the Cowichan Valley! She is very skilled and knowledgeable and will definitely provide you with a seamless, exceptional experience. We were looking for a home in the recent buying craze and beginning to feel very discouraged. Finally, we found a home we loved and she helped with every stage of the process. Meredith has been in the business since 2008 and works very hard for her clients. She will not lead you astray whether you are looking for a new home, or selling, she will be your best advocate. I can’t really say enough good things about her abilities and professionalism. Plus she is a really nice person! Thank you, Meredith!"

"We had the pleasure of working with Meredith on the purchase of our new home. I have nothing but good things to say about her. We loved her personality and energy. She’s very positive, warm and friendly. She was always very quick to respond to our calls, emails and texts. As lovely as she is, she is also a shrewd negotiator. She was able to get us everything we were looking for in this deal and I’m sure we would have paid more had we gone with a different realtor."
