Vancouver Real Estate MLS Tour

My team and I took the opportunity to join the MLS tour for Realtors a few times this week, so I thought I’d share my experience and let you all know what it’s all about.  The MLS tour is mostly for Realtors only, and it gives us an opportunity to showcase our listings to other agents, and at the same time view some of theirs.   This week we had a chance to attend the East Vancouver as well as the South Burnaby tour.  Once we have a chance to preview the house, townhouse or condo, we all make an estimate of what we think a good asking price would be.  This proves to be effective, as you are getting the opinion of 10 or 12 neighborhood experts on the pricing of your home.  In the end, you take the average of the estimates, and you then have some feedback for the seller.  The MLS tours were cancelled for the past few years, as properties were selling so quickly, that they were likely to be sold before the tour had a chance to start.  Now that our market is adjusting and properties aren’t selling as fast, the tour is growing in popularity.  This is just another one of the services that we provide to our clients when you list with the Blum Real Estate Team.  If you would like to preview our current listings, CLICK HERE.

If you, or anyone you know is interested in selling your home and would like it featured on the tour, please visit our contact page, and feel free to contact us anytime for a free market evaluation.
