This is bittersweet…I’m a private person…but I wanted to share my award and appreciation for the late great Dan Card…😢Here goes…

I received this Medallion Club Award earlier this year, as I finished in the top 11-20% of Greater Vancouver Real Estate Agents for 2025.
I am very proud as I worked hard to make my clients dreams come true throughout last year, as well as taking over Dan’s clients and their needs, so he could focus on his family and a battle with Cancer.

He was told it was terminal on first diagnosis, and still dug in to give it all he had for even one more day of life. Truly inspirational, determined, and intentional in his final year.
He was the Ultimate Warrior! (We loved to chat wrestling, lol) He loved with all his heart and then some.

Sadly we lost Dan Card earlier this year on May 11th, he passed peacefully, but fought for almost two years just to extend life and have more time with his kids, his new wife & her kids. A splendid blended family❤️

I always hoped we would continue our work together and lead each other into retirement. Even knowing he would not win this battle, there was always hope, laughter, and love from Dan. He is missed greatly.

The legacy of Dan Card lives on in my life, my family, and my real estate business!
I worked with Dan for most of my almost 9 years in real estate. Learning, evolving, and embracing the way Dan did it. I have my opinions and preferences, but the basis of how I complete deals, list homes, treat clients, negotiate fair but hard, problem solve, anticipate counter offers, and pay it forward, are in large part because of my time teamed up with Dan Card. Being on the Dan Card Real Estate Team has been a highlight of my career.

As I continue on my own, I am continuing to service Dan’s previous client database, and have been in contact with many, but not all yet. He knew a lot of people and cared about their lives.
I was honoured when he chose me to help him with his clients in 2024, in early 2025 he trusted me to take over all of his files completely(but wanted to know & be kept in the loop).
In January 2026 he said he was handing it all over to me, and felt at peace because he knew my level of care would match his.
March 2026 is when we had to cancel his license and dissolve The Dan Card Real Estate Team.
Although mostly in 2025 I was essentially the whole real estate team, I still could reach out to Dan and pick his incredible brain.
2026 has been a rough year for many reasons, and I would love to hear his voice, his laugh, and his cynical takes on the real estate biz.

☝🏽“I digress, and onwards and upwards” as he would say.
I’m here for you my friends, Dan’s clients & friends(one in the same to me).

If I can be of any assistance in your life, please reach out.🙏🏼
Whether it’s about real estate or not, I would love to hear from you.
I have many contacts to aid in your journey to own a home, buy a presale, renovate & upkeep existing homes, investing, renewing mortgages & home insurance.
It would defintley benefit you in some way to speak with me, I’m happy to help and share my knowledge & experience!!!

🥰Cheers to Dan! May he rest in peace💐 And let’s continue what he started together.

Today, Sept 6th 2026, they announced another hold on any changes to the federal interest rate.
It was expected, and no change means not a lot is going to change in residential real estate, yet prices are still on the downturn, inventory is still at a high level.
What should a prospective buyer do? It’s a very opportune time for first-time buyers to BUY, condo owners to UPSIZE to that townhouse, Townhome owners UPGRADE to a Detached Home. The margins in these products are smaller!!
Call me, let’s do the math. I can put you in contact with a Mortgage Specialist to confirm affordability numbers before you decide anything. Information is power💪🏼
I’m happy to help, share my knowledge and show you a home🏠

‼️Another Rate Hold‼️
“A hold was widely expected by economists in the leadup to the decision — all 36 economists surveyed by ⁠Reuters ahead of the announcement expected the central bank to hold rates, with a majority forecasting no change until at ⁠least July of next year. This decision marked the sixth consecutive time the bank chose to keep interest rates as is.”

With no change in rates forecasted until next year July, and prices that match 2018 prices. PLUS a good amount of inventory available…if you’re a first time buyer-it’s time to buy!! Upgraders…it’s time to Buy that bigger home!!!
Let’s chat and see if your family is positioned to take advantage of current market conditions.

The Bank of Canada has once again held its overnight lending rate at 2.25%, offering continued stability as Canadians navigate shifting economic and housing market conditions.

The Bank of Canada did what was expected, and held the rate again today(June 10th). And going forward the expectation is another rate hold in July.
Therefore Market conditions should remain the same with prices continuing to stabilize and inventory climbing. Great conditions for first time buyers, and owners wanting to upgrade/upsize property types(condo to townhome, or townhome to detached). Time to go bigger!
📲📞☎️Let’s chat! and see if it’s your time to make a move🏠

The Bank of Canada has held its overnight lending rate at 2.25%. With Canada in a technical recession and inflationary pressures persisting, the decision to hold was a measured response to an uncertain economic backdrop. For buyers and sellers, it means borrowing costs remain predictable. Check back soon for our full market insights.
