A one-bedroom and flex that showed like a two-bedroom
Melanie's condo on West 5th Avenue had one bedroom, a large flex space, and a den. Josh's interior designer helped her restyle it so buyers could see it working like a two-bedroom. Priced at the upper end of the range, it drew multiple offers and sold over asking in three days. When the first buyer backed out, another offer came in almost immediately.

The first building Josh named over coffee
Before Wesley and Alix had seen anything, Josh suggested 2458 York Avenue, a building where he had sold about half a dozen units and knew the history. A two-bedroom there was listed, and they saw it that afternoon. After comparing other options, including North Vancouver, they chose Kitsilano for walkability, came back to York Avenue, negotiated hard, then negotiated again after an honest inspection. Josh framed the choice plainly: about $730,000 for a two-bedroom with some possible building costs ahead, or $900,000 or more for another two-bedroom with costs coming too.
