I’ve never been a fan of the idea that we’re supposed to completely separate our “work selves” from our “real selves.”

To me, life doesn’t work in separate compartments. The things we care about outside of work, like our hobbies, our families, and the things that recharge us, always shape how we treat people in our careers.

When I started in real estate, I knew I didn’t want to be a “salesperson.” I’ve never liked that word. I’ve always tried to avoid some of the stereotypes such as the pushing, the rushing, or the feeling that it’s just a transaction.

For me, it’s always been about building actual relationships. It’s about giving people the facts they need and letting them make an informed decision on their own time. There is no pressure and no rush.

But it goes beyond that. I don’t just hand over the keys and disappear. It’s just the way I do business to stay connected with people long after they’ve bought or sold a home. It’s been incredible getting to know so many amazing people this way, and I want to be someone you can genuinely count on for the long haul.

Because my work is built on those connections, I wanted my branding to reflect who I actually am. My first logo served me well, but I needed it quickly and didn’t have the luxury of time back then. It was just a generic logo that I had no personal connection with.

This time, I wanted a logo that spoke to my heart.

If you know me, you know that music and vinyl records are a huge passion of mine. It’s how I unwind and a big part of what makes me… wel… me. So, for the new look for Chris Carter Real Estate, we combined those two worlds. You’ll see the house built right into the groove of a record.

It connects the work I love with the music I love. It feels like me, and I think the final design is awesome.

The cool thing about design is that everyone interprets it a little differently.

I’m really proud to share this new branding with you today, and I’d love to hear your take.

When you look at the new logo, what do you see?

A huge congratulations to my buyers on the purchase of their new home!

Properties like this don’t come along every day. With multiple income producing units, excellent flexibility, and plenty of future potential, this is the kind of purchase that can create opportunities for years to come. Whether it is generating rental income, building long term wealth, or creating options for the future, this was a tremendous move and I could not be happier for my clients.

One of the most rewarding parts of my job is helping people navigate important decisions and find opportunities that align with their goals. Watching this one come together was especially exciting, and I am grateful to have been trusted to help guide the process.

I would also like to give a big shout out to Ray Little with eXp Realty (DU). Ray was fantastic to work with from start to finish. Professional, responsive, collaborative, and simply a great guy. Transactions are always better when everyone works together with a positive attitude and focus on getting the best outcome for their clients. Thanks Ray, it was a pleasure working with you.

Real estate is about so much more than properties. It is about people, relationships, and helping clients make confident decisions that support their future. I am grateful every day for the opportunity to be part of these important moments.

Welcome to 1968 Estevan Road! If you’ve been waiting for a genuine deal in Nanaimo’s highly desirable Brechin Hill, this is it. Now re-listed at an incredible $764,900, this property is officially priced well below its BC Assessed value. That means serious instant equity and unmatched value for this neighborhood.

First off, let’s talk space. This home sits on a massive lot that is over a quarter-acre (13,339 sq ft, to be exact). Properties this size in this area are a rare find. The 2,320 sq ft layout is bright and open, boasting beautiful vaulted ceilings. Step out onto the back patio to relax and take in those lovely ocean views, it is the perfect spot for your morning coffee. The main floor features 3 bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a spacious living area. Downstairs, the fully developed lower level adds a ton of flexibility with a big rec room, a den, laundry, and a second bathroom, perfect for a growing family, guests, or a home office setup.

Now, for the hobbyists and makers: this property has a major bonus. Aside from the carport and a handy garage tucked under the deck, you get a massive, detached 600 sq ft workshop. Whether you need a spot for woodworking, working on cars, storing outdoor gear, or running a business, this extra space is a huge asset.

Outside, the huge backyard is a blank canvas. There is endless room for a vegetable garden, a secure place for kids and pets to play, or a summer BBQ setup. Plus, the location is unbeatable. You are just minutes from Departure Bay Beach, BC Ferries, great schools, shopping, and restaurants.

An ocean-view home on over a quarter-acre with a detached shop, all for under assessed value? Opportunities like this do not last long.

Saw this plate while driving to work today.

That’s some real dedication to Nanaimo right there.

I wonder what percentage of Californians know what that means? My guess is close to zero. 🤣

Not every home needs to be huge to be spectacular.

Sometimes it’s the flexibility. Sometimes it’s the location. Sometimes it’s the extra space that opens the door to possibilities you didn’t expect.

479 Hillcrest Avenue is one of those properties.

Priced at just $489,900, this charming home offers comfortable living space, beautiful gardens, convenient laneway access, and a detached serviced auxiliary building complete with its own kitchen and bathroom. Whether you’re a first time buyer, downsizer, investor, or someone looking for a property with a little more versatility, this is a home that’s worth a closer look.

Properties like this don’t come along every day, especially at this price point.

Real estate is about finding a place that fits your life, not just checking boxes. I love helping people discover opportunities they may not have considered and finding the right fit for their next chapter.

Some homes check a few boxes. This one checks a lot of them.

Welcome to 4843 Hartford Place in North Nanaimo. A beautifully updated 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom home sitting on an incredible 13,854 sq.ft. lot, a rare find in one of Nanaimo’s most sought after neighbourhoods.

Extensively renovated over the years and loaded with major upgrades including a new roof, windows, furnace, air conditioning, and more, this is the kind of property where the big projects have already been done. Just move in and enjoy.

The spectacular backyard offers room to relax, entertain, garden, play, and make memories for years to come. Properties with this much usable outdoor space in North Nanaimo don’t come along very often.

Real estate has never been just about houses for me. It’s about helping people navigate important life decisions with honesty, care, and a genuine investment in their success. I’m always grateful for the opportunity to be part of that journey.

If you’d like to learn more about this awesome property or arrange a private viewing, I’d be happy to help.
