Meet Real Estate Institute of British Columbia member, Peter Chow, RI🏘️

Peter began his career in real estate with BC Assessment in 2016, first working temporarily at the Abbotsford office before becoming an Appraiser at the Vancouver office. He is currently responsible for the assessment of residential properties, including portfolios under the Official Community Plans in Vancouver.

Peter has always been interested in urban planning and regional development – his undergraduate studies were focused on geography, GIS and urban studies and he worked in the geospatial industry after completing his Bachelors at Simon Fraser University in 2014. Working as an appraiser allows him to explore the dynamics of the real estate market with respect to the growth of the Lower Mainland.

He is thrilled to witness this regional growth and to be a part of it. He joined REIBC for the opportunity to be a part of a well-respected organization, further his career development and continue to expand his professional network within the real estate industry. In his spare time, Peter loves to go mountain biking and camping. He hopes to climb Mount Baker in the near future, to visit India and Nepal and to take a road trip through the Dempster Highway to the Arctic Circle. Welcome Peter!
