Bought for 68K below assessment with a mortgage that's cheaper than rent!
Trying does not cost anything! Waiting does!
How One family with children bought a home $68k below assessment in Vancouver.
A few months ago, this family reached out about the pre-approval process. With children to think about, they wanted a home close to good schools, with room to grow.
Their down payment wasn't quite there, so we built a plan featuring realistic monthly targets and a clear timeline. No guesswork. Straight up facts and strategy.
They stayed disciplined, hit their numbers, and in under three months had saved enough. When they were ready, we moved fast in a softer market, where sellers were motivated and savvy buyers had real leverage.

The result: a 1 bed, 1 bath + den, BC assessed at $513,000, secured for $445,000 – $68,000 below BC assessment.
To summarize…
✅ Secured at $445,000
✅ Down payment: just $22,250
✅ Monthly mortgage: $1,996
That's $68,000 in instant equity, and a mortgage payment close to what many renters already pay.
This is what buying in a soft market looks like when you're prepared and strategic.
If you're paying over $2,000/month in rent, you might already qualify. Let's find out together!
