Happy Thanksgiving from all of us — Jane, Sean, and Danielle at the Briar Hill Group. We’re deeply grateful for the trust you place in us, and for the chance to be part of your home journeys. May your weekend be filled with good food, great company, and some well-deserved rest. Jane Johnston, Personal Real Estate Corp Sean Provencher

Sean had his turn with Beacon Drive In, so of course Jane had to weigh in. 🍦

Chocolats Favoris is one of those places she discovered in Quebec City and was VERY happy to find here in Victoria. And as she points out, they certainly don’t skimp on the chocolate.

We’re slowly making our way around Greater Victoria one ice cream cone at a time, so now we need to know: where’s your favourite spot?

Apparently I’ve been selling real estate since 2006, which seems both completely accurate and slightly offensive. Where did those 20 years go? 😅

If you’ve been around here for a while, you probably know quite a bit about me already. I’m a former teacher, an Ontario transplant who fell in love with Victoria, and someone who still gets genuinely excited about negotiating a great deal for my clients.

Nearly 1,000 sales later, I’m also still learning. Real estate has a funny way of keeping you humble like that. The market changes, the rules change, every client brings a different situation, and just when you think you’ve seen everything… you haven’t.

That’s probably a big part of why I still love doing this.

You’ll also be seeing plenty of me over on the Greater Victoria Real Estate Show, talking markets, stats, buying, selling and probably disagreeing with Andrew about something along the way.

So if you’re new here, hi, I’m Jane. And if you’ve known me for years, thanks for sticking around. ❤️

And of course, I’m never too busy for your referrals. Some things really don’t change.

Canada’s federal Foreign Buyer Ban is set to expire January 1, 2027.

Will ending it bring investment and help restart stalled housing projects—or push prices even higher?

This week on the Greater Victoria Real Estate Show, Jane Johnston, Andrew Plank and Jen Lowe discuss:

� Home prices and affordability
� Condo presales and new housing supply
� Foreign investment and the economy
� What it could mean for Victoria and B.C.

Should Canada extend the ban—or let it expire?

Well, it finally happened. We’re officially in a buyer’s market. 👀

September was a slow month for Greater Victoria real estate, but before anyone reads too much into that headline, we’d give it a little time. One month doesn’t make a trend, and what we’re seeing out there still depends a lot on the property.

There are single-family homes getting multiple offers while condos are having a much tougher go. Buyers have plenty to choose from, but that doesn’t necessarily mean waiting longer will get you a better deal.

Where things get interesting is what happens next because, apparently, we don’t agree. 😂

Sean thinks there’s a good chance things pick back up later this fall and we move out of buyer’s market territory before the end of the year. Jane thinks we’re staying put and buyers should take advantage of the market they have in front of them.

We’ll find out soon enough.

In the meantime, our full September Market Update is on YouTube, and we want to know: are you Team Jane or Team Sean on this one?

And if you’re less interested in predicting the market and more interested in figuring out what it means for your plans, give us a call. We’re always happy to talk it through.

A couple of drinks in and the real estate advice gets a little more direct. 😂

After this many years in the business, there are certain things we’ve learned, certain things we’ll always tell our clients, and a few opinions we feel pretty strongly about.

The delivery might change after a drink or two, but the advice doesn’t. 🍸

More homes to choose from. Fewer sales. Is Greater Victoria shifting into a buyer’s market?

In our October 2 Greater Victoria Real Estate Podcast market update, Jane Johnston, Andrew Plank and Jen Lowe break down September’s numbers—and what they mean for your next move.

Sales were down 16.4% compared with last September, with 3,811 active listings available. We’ll discuss house, townhouse and condo trends, what buyers should be watching, and why pricing and preparation matter for sellers.

Is this an opportunity for buyers? How should sellers adjust their expectations?

Watch our October 2026 Victoria BC real estate market update and bring your questions. What would you like to know about your neighbourhood?

A lot can happen between deciding to buy or sell a home and actually handing over the keys. And sometimes it’s the really small details that can cause the biggest headaches.

We’ve both been doing this long enough to know that when something feels like it should be fine, that’s not a particularly good reason to assume it is. So we ask the questions, read the documents, have the conversations (even the 34-minute ones) and follow the process all the way through.

The three stories in this post are all real examples of times when that mattered. Nothing blew up, nobody ended up in some massive real estate disaster, and that’s kind of the point.

There are plenty of exciting parts of buying and selling real estate, but a big part of our job is also making sure you understand what you’re walking into before you walk into it.

Anddd… Ya it might not always be the glamorous stuff, BUT it is still pretty important stuff. 🏡

And THAT’S a fact. 😉🏡

If a new home in Victoria happens to be your particular brand of happiness, we’d be very happy to help you find it.
