Brokerage re-engineered for Vancouver landowners — where planning insight, valuation clarity, and negotiation design replace noise and guesswork.
for owners who want clarity
before commitment
In a city where policy defines potential, value isn’t guessed — it’s designed.
While others market exposure, I engineer certainty.
This is Strategic Land Advisory — integrating valuation, development planning, and negotiation into one coherent system that turns potential into price.
the quiet advantages that change everything
Clarity over complexity.
Real value emerges when everything lines up — policy, development planning, and timing — into one coherent story.
Truth over noise.
Every great decision starts with facts, not spin. I surface what others overlook and cut through the clutter.
Discretion over exposure.
The best outcomes come quietly.
I protect information and position strategically, not publicly.
Strategy over volume.
Fewer listings. Deeper work. Better results. Each property is treated like its own blueprint.
built from the ground up around your land
Most firms design systems to make their jobs easier.
I design mine to get you the best result.
I’m not here to fit you into a process.
I’m here to build one around your land.
Every successful sale follows a rhythm:
Listen. Understand your goals, constraints, and land context.
Study. Analyze policy, zoning, and development potential with a builder’s mindset.
Design. Craft a clear, evidence-based strategy grounded in feasibility.
Execute. Reach the right buyers, the right way — directly, discreetly, and with intent.
what a specialized strategy delivers
Valuation clarity. Ground-up analysis rooted in planning and feasibility — not wishful thinking.
Precision marketing. Targeted outreach to qualified buyers, not browsers.
Strategic negotiation. Relentless when needed, always anchored in insight.
Expert continuity. One experienced professional — quiet when it counts, sharp when it matters.
When the timing’s right, I don’t go broad — I go focused.
Because strategy isn’t about reaching everyone. It’s about reaching the right one.

you already know
If you’ve read this far, you already think differently.
You’re looking for clarity in a world of noise.
You don’t need volume — you need vision.
That’s what I offer.
A sharper path to full value.
