How it works

- I call you back personally, usually the same day. I’m your first point of contact and your REALTOR® from the first meeting on. Tim Jones, a REALTOR® at Coldwell Banker Executives Realty, supports my clients behind the scenes with scheduling, paperwork and the day-to-day details.
- Selling? I'll put together your pricing and marketing plan myself, with professional photos, video and my YouTube audience behind your listing.
The Vernon market right now
Over the 12 months to September 2026, the median home in Vernon and Coldstream sold for about $690,000, took a median of 51 days to sell, and went for about 97% of its asking price. Sales slowed through the summer, and fewer sellers are listing, so pricing right from day one matters more than usual.

I started in commercial real estate, spent years helping build BC's legal cannabis industry, and moved into lifestyle real estate after falling in love with the Okanagan. I live full time at the Strand in Okanagan Landing, and I've been a Friday Mountain Host at SilverStar for years. More about me
