Open For Business Evenings and Weekends
In our busy, modern world many buyers are requesting to view properties on evenings and weekends. I am able to take advantage of these opportunities with my 24/7 work ethic. I personally show your home using my honed skill sets acquired from years of experience to ensure your home is properly represented and stands ours from the competition. I believe personalized showings are a necessity to highlight your homes unique features, thought out finishing, design and style.

PROFESSIONAL FLOOR PLANS
Floor Plans and accurate measurements are a necessity when marketing in today’s modern marketplace. Buyers are more sophisticated than ever before and they expect the utmost accuracy when considering overall square footage and room sizes. Your home will have onsite measurements and a computerized floor plan to accurately showcase your listings layout and flow.
HIGH GLOSS FEATURE SHEETS
Knowing my clients have invested a significant amount of time, effort and money into making their home perfect, I believe that the hard work and attention to detail should not end there. Once listed, your home will receive professional, quality brochures containing photos, the floor plan and detailed information about your home that buyers can take with them and review later. I personally oversee the design and production of your homes feature sheets to ensure the best photos are used and the most notable details mentioned.

Aerial or what I call “Drone” footage is a necessity to capture your homes beauty, views and profile.

Your Property Advertised behind the Great Firewall
Macdonald Realty is the first and only Canada-focused real estate website behind the Great Firewall. With this distinct marketing advantage, my clients are uniquely positioned giving them an edge over the rest of the market.
macrealty.cnTitle Review By Lawyer
By using Terra Firma Title Review and having a “lawyer on retainer”, I provide my clients with a land title review along with an easy to read legal opinion from one of B.C’s leading real estate firms. Every non financial charge on title is reviewed and explained in plain words.
Many properties have right of ways, easements, restrictive covenants, building schemes and subdivision plan charges on title. These charges can be very hard to understand, often leaving the buyer confused. I perform a title review on each property, for each transaction. When my listings hit the market, a full title review, legal opinion and explanation in plain words is available for buyers consideration. This eliminates any title questions a buyer may have, leaving the buyer informed and confident in your property.
Alternatively, when representing buyers a title review gives my buyer true peace of mind and a complete understanding of the property they are purchasing.
Local Print Advertising
Exclusive to Macdonald Realty, your property will be featured in The Vancouver Sun’s prominent Saturday ‘BusinessBC’ section. These colour adds are prime exposure on the back of the section to 482,000 readers.
Other local newspaper advertising opportunities available including the Real Estate Weekly, community newspapers, the Real Estate Book and local Chinese newspapers like Ming Pao or Sing Tao.
Professionally Staging Your Home
When you put your home on the market, it becomes a product.
Your home needs to make a great first impression and be "appeal ready" to look its very best at "show time." It needs to be transformed from a home you live in to a listing you want to sell so it can out-shine the competition and make buyers want to make an offer. I offer my clients the very best home staging consultation service.
Matterport True VR Tour
This technology is designed to allow buyers, to view your listing online as a virtual open house with a virtual reality experience at any time, from any where in the world. Using the same technology behind Google “Street View”, the 3D scan is compatible with any mobile device and desktop. You can connect your mobile phone, tablet or desktop to your Google or Samsung goggles and walk through the home in 3D. A real experience for real estate.
