There's a version of this story that's just a list of features. 4 beds, 4 baths, nearly 3,000 square feet, Foxridge-built, quiet cul-de-sac in West Cloverdale. It has a finished basement with suite potential. Heated floors add warmth, while a glass pergola offers light. Enjoy the gas fire pit for cozy evenings. The main floor office is perfect for work. The primary bedroom offers stunning views. Plus, the home is just steps from Bose Park and great trails nearby. And that version is all true.

But the part that gets me about this one is that it's never been on the market. The original owners built it in 2010 and have loved it every day since. A grandson played in that backyard. Neighbours became family. And now, with the timing finally feeling right. They're ready to hand it over and whoever gets this home is going to understand exactly why it was so hard to leave.

We're hosting Open Houses this Saturday May 9 and Sunday May 10 from 2–4 PM. If you’ve been looking for something unique on a peaceful street in a close-knit neighbourhood. Come walk through it.

This client story started with a big life decision.

Jeff and Lisa were preparing to leave their Clayton home and start a completely new chapter in Southern Manitoba.

But before that could happen, everything needed to line up. They had moving cubes scheduled, utilities to cancel, strata details to handle and a timeline that had to work for their cross-country move.

Selling a home is already a big step. Doing it while planning a move across the country adds another layer entirely.

Step by step we built a plan that worked for their timeline.

Their Clayton home sold and that sale allowed them to purchase their Manitoba home mortgage free.

Today they live about 90 minutes south of Winnipeg on a rural property that keeps them busy and gives them a strong sense of purpose.

When I asked what helped most during the process, this is what they said:
“The complete confidence Bettina had in herself and the people involved.”

“Talking to Bettina was always calm and positive.”

Every move has a story. Some begin with excitement. Others begin with uncertainty. Either way, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

If you’ve been wondering whether your home still fits this season of life, that’s exactly what a Midlife Moves Conversation is for.

We like to think we’re flexible… 😅

In real estate and apparently in yoga too.

Safe to say one of those is more reliable than the other.

Good thing we don’t wing your move like this.

If you’re trying to figure out your next step, we’ll help you make sense of it properly.

Let’s talk through what makes sense for your next move. DM us ”yoga” and we will send you our Balance Method Guide.

That’s actually the goal.

If you’re just starting out… or need a space that supports this stage of life… this one is worth a look.

Some homes are built with intention from the very beginning.

This one in Langley was purchased as a pre-build, which means every detail you see today was thoughtfully chosen and designed to create a space that truly works for everyday life.

Over time, it became a home filled with routines, growth, and the kind of comfort that’s hard to replicate.

And now, it’s ready for its next chapter.

For someone new, that means stepping into a home that already feels complete, while still making it your own.

With a functional layout, a legal 2 bedroom suite, and custom touches throughout, this home offers flexibility for different stages of life.

But more importantly, it offers a feeling.

The kind where you walk in and can actually picture yourself living there.

If you’ve been exploring Langley homes and waiting for something that feels aligned, this is one to see.

We can walk you through it at your pace and help you decide if it fits what you’re looking for.

We helped our client purchase this home in Glenmore at Morgan Heights over 10 years ago.

That kind of longevity says a lot about both the home and the neighbourhood.

This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom South Surrey townhome offers over 1,200 square feet, a bright south-facing exposure, and a peaceful outlook over the tree-lined walkway along 24 Ave.

📍 67–2450 161A Street, South Surrey

Located in one of the most convenient pockets of South Surrey, within the Morgan Heights community, you’re walking distance to Morgan Crossing, Grandview Corners, and nearby parks.

The Glenmore community includes access to an outdoor pool, fitness centre, theatre room, and indoor floor hockey rink.

Homes in this part of South Surrey are often held long-term because of how well the location supports everyday life through different stages.

If you’ve been wondering whether your current home still fits your life, that’s usually where these conversations begin.

We start with clarity before any decisions are made.

Most people don’t realize how lonely real estate can feel.

In the early years I named my team The Bettina Reid Group. I wanted to build connection in an industry that often expects you to figure everything out alone.

Over time our team grew into something more meaningful. We became Balance Real Estate Group.
A collective of women bringing different strengths and perspectives so we could better support the families we serve.

That shift inspired what is now known as
The Balance Method.

Because moving is rarely just about square footage. It’s about life transitions… emotional readiness… and identity shifts.

My own midlife journey helped me see how heavy housing decisions can feel
when you’re also navigating hormonal changes, growing families or empty nest adjustments.

That is why I created the Midlife Moves edition.

A gentler way to make confident real estate decisions.

If your home has started to feel different lately there may be a reason.
