I came to Vancouver in 1990. I had been a social worker, and I could not find that work here. Many Hong Kong immigrants at the time were under-served, and my brother was getting licensed the same year, so real estate seemed fitting. I was licensed in 1992, and since then I have worked in several brokerages, in resale and new-project marketing, mostly with overseas investors — and from 2014 to 2024 as Managing Broker of Regent Park Realty.

Medallion Club — Diamond MemberGreater Vancouver REALTORS® · 2023Where I work
Vancouver, Burnaby, New Westminster and Richmond first — and Delta, Surrey, the North Shore, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody.
I have lived here for more than 20 years. People say it is too far from the city centre; they overlook the direct bus to the Canada Line. For families, and for anyone after the waterfront and a quiet life.
I have done deals here, and my daughter lives here. It is not only for young people: the Kensington recreation area and Burnaby Lake Park are close by. For active people.
I have bought and sold here since 1992. Not everything here is too expensive, and it is very walkable. For city lovers who like the outdoors.
Still active, every day: my current listings, live from the MLS®.

Preview tools · not part of the site
Accent: the brand colour — buttons, links and highlights use your pick as-is.
Background: the hue washed over the page's backgrounds. Only its hue (and a little saturation) is used — the lightness stays on the Light/Dark archetype so text keeps its contrast (WCAG) — so backgrounds take on your colour's tone, not the exact swatch (e.g. a cream tint on Dark gives a cream-toned dark).
