Why Choose a Local SurreyReal Estate Agent
Surrey has six town centres with detached benchmarks over $400,000 apart. A local Surrey realtor prices your home against the listings a buyer will actually compare it to, in your town centre and your property type, rather than against a citywide average that describes nobody’s house.
Sub market pricing
North Surrey carried 699 active apartment listings against 53 sales in August while Cloverdale carried 58 active apartments against 12 sales. Selling a condo in Whalley and selling one in Cloverdale are different jobs.
Full professional marketing
In Surrey the listing photos carry unusual weight, because a buyer scrolling six town centres worth of inventory decides in about two seconds whether to click.
Straight answers on the market
You get the current board numbers with their source and their month, and an honest read of what they mean for your town centre.
One point of contact
Shawn handles the listing, the showings, the offers and the paperwork through to completion, and you always know where things stand.

Answers to Common Questions
What does it cost to sell a house in Surrey?
Expect roughly 3 to 6 percent of the sale price in total. Commission is the largest cost, commonly quoted as 7 percent on the first $100,000 plus 2.5 to 3.5 percent on the balance plus GST, and it is negotiable and not set by law. Legal or notary fees usually run $1,000 to $2,000.
What is the realtor commission in Surrey, BC?
A common structure is 7 percent on the first $100,000 plus 2.5 to 3.5 percent on the balance, plus 5 percent GST. Commission is negotiable and not set by law, and following BCFSA reforms the buyer’s agent commission is negotiated separately.
How fast are homes selling in Surrey?
Fraser Valley averages in August 2026 were 45 days for detached, 37 for townhomes and 45 for condos. Surrey aggregator data has shown around 38 days on market at a 96.4 percent sell-to-list ratio. No specific timeline can be guaranteed.
Do I pay GST when I sell my Surrey home?
No. GST applies to newly built homes, not resale homes. Sellers also do not pay the Property Transfer Tax, which is a buyer cost in British Columbia.
Should I sell my Surrey condo now, given all the new construction?
New construction supply in City Centre adds competition for condo sellers on top of an already deep resale market. North Surrey alone carried 699 active apartment listings against 53 sales in August 2026, with the apartment benchmark down 10.0 percent year over year. Pricing realistically and presenting well matter more in this segment than any other.
How much is my house worth in Surrey right now?
The MLS benchmark for a typical Surrey home of any type was $912,700 in August 2026, but the detached benchmark ranged from $1,262,400 in North Surrey to $1,649,200 in White Rock and South Surrey. Your home’s value depends on your town centre, property type and condition. A Comparative Market Analysis is how you find out.
Do I pay tax when I sell my home in BC?
If the home was your principal residence for every year you owned it, the profit is generally tax free, though you must still report the sale. British Columbia’s Home Flipping Tax can apply if you sell within 730 days of buying, with exemptions. This is general information, not tax advice.
Is now a good time to sell in Surrey?
It is a buyer’s market. Surrey average sold prices were down 9.9 to 12.0 percent year over year in August 2026 depending on property type and the board wide sales-to-active ratio was 10 percent, below the balanced range. A realistically priced, well presented home still sells. An optimistically priced one mostly accumulates days on market.
