Why Us - Pleasants Real Estate Team

 

We're Not Just Listing Your Home. We're Making It Unmissable.

Most realtors list homes. We launch them.

As Vancouver listing specialists, we've built our reputation on one thing: making sellers look like rockstars while getting them top dollar. How? By combining in-house cinematic media, strategic market positioning, and the kind of white-glove service usually reserved for multi-million dollar estates—at every price point.

Whether you're selling a Kitsilano character home or a Coal Harbour penthouse, you get the same premium treatment. Because in this market, your listing needs to stand out—and we know exactly how to make that happen.

What Makes Us Different

🎥 In-House Cinematic Media Team

This isn't your typical real estate photography.

Our dedicated media team produces Hollywood-level listing films, professional photography, and drone footage that makes buyers stop scrolling and start sharing. We control the entire creative process—from shot composition to final edit—so your home looks its absolute best.

What you get:

  • Cinematic listing films with professional editing and music
  • Twilight and golden hour photography
  • Aerial drone footage showcasing property and neighborhood
  • Virtual staging options when needed
  • Fast turnaround (we're in-house, not outsourced)

The result? Listings that get 10x more views, shares, and serious buyer inquiries.

📍 Deep Vancouver Neighborhood Expertise

We don't just work in Vancouver. We live and breathe it.

From Dunbar's family-friendly streets to Yaletown's urban energy, Shaughnessy's tree-lined elegance to Mount Pleasant's creative vibe—we know what makes each neighborhood tick and what buyers are willing to pay for.

Why this matters:

  • Smarter pricing: We know what sold last week three blocks over
  • Better positioning: A Kerrisdale bungalow needs different messaging than a False Creek condo
  • Targeted marketing: We reach the buyers actively looking in your specific area
  • Honest advice: We'll tell you if now's the right time to sell, or if waiting makes more sense

Our market knowledge isn't generic—it's hyperlocal, current, and based on real transactions happening right now.

📊 Strategic Marketing That Actually Works

Pretty photos aren't enough. You need a strategic campaign that puts your listing in front of serious buyers.

Our marketing playbook:

  • Targeted digital advertising across social media and real estate platforms
  • Email campaigns to our database of active buyers and agents
  • MLS optimization with SEO-rich descriptions and proper positioning
  • Agent networking to bring qualified buyers from other brokerages
  • Open house strategy (when it makes sense for your property)
  • Coming soon campaigns to build anticipation before you go live

Every listing gets a customized marketing plan—not a cookie-cutter template. We track what's working and adjust in real-time to maximize exposure and buyer interest.

✨ Concierge Service, Start to Finish

Selling a home is stressful enough. We handle the details so you don't have to.

What concierge service looks like with us:

  • Pre-listing consultation: Honest feedback on staging, repairs, and timing
  • Vendor coordination: We connect you with trusted stagers, contractors, cleaners
  • Shoot day management: We handle everything while you sit back
  • Showing coordination: Flexible scheduling that works with your life
  • Offer management: Clear communication and strong negotiation on your behalf
  • Transaction oversight: We stay on top of every deadline, document, and detail until closing

You get one main point of contact (no getting passed around), regular updates, and the peace of mind that comes from working with people who actually care about your outcome.

We Tell It Straight

You won't get sugar-coating or inflated price estimates to win your business. We give you honest, data-backed advice—even when it's not what you want to hear.

If your home needs work before listing, we'll tell you. If the market timing isn't ideal, we'll tell you. If your price expectations don't match reality, we'll show you the comps and have that conversation.

Our job is to get you the best outcome, not to tell you what you want to hear.

Every Listing Gets the Luxury Treatment

Whether you're selling a $600K condo or a $6M waterfront estate, you get:

  • The same premium media production
  • The same strategic marketing approach
  • The same level of personal attention
  • The same commitment to getting you results

We don't save our best work for the biggest listings. Every seller deserves to have their home presented like a luxury property—because that's what drives competition and gets you top dollar.

The Bottom Line

You're choosing who tells your home's story to the market. Choose the team that's going to make it unmissable.

We bring the in-house media, the market expertise, the strategic campaigns, and the concierge service that turns your listing into an event—not just another property on MLS.
