Coming in from out of town and having to purchase our new home in just days was a whirlwind. But Christi and Kelsey really made it as seamless as possible. Setting up every home we wanted to see, spending all weekend with us while we looked through homes for hours & being so efficient every step of the way. With their expertise we found our new family house!

Pete Russell at Stone Sisters was fantastic. Pete was always very quick to respond, sympathetic to our needs and an all around great representative. Pete got us the best deal we could hope for and was professional and super helpful with closing the deal. I recommend Pete and Stone Sisters wholeheartedly. 5 stars for Pete and his team.

- David

We used the Stone Sisters for the sale of our home and the experience was exceptional. Incredibly professional, excellent marketing, photography, and presentation of our home. Upon our return to Kelowna about 4 years later, we worked with the Stone Sisters group to purchase our current home. Again, entirely professional, available, and informative. We appreciated the efforts to contact us to check on our experience through the process, as well as follow up. We recommend the Stone Sisters group without reservation!

He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and guided us through every step of the process with patience and expertise.

Peter’s market knowledge and negotiation skills helped us secure the perfect home at a great price. He always had our best interests at heart and went above and beyond to make the entire experience smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for a dedicated and trustworthy real estate agent, we highly recommend Peter Russel!

Frequently Asked Questions

I want to buy my first home in Kelowna. How do I start?
+

Start by getting pre-approved for a mortgage. Pre-approval informs you of exactly how much you can spend and locks you in at the current interest rate for 90 days or more. This will let you browse properties knowing exactly what your budget is, which is particularly important when considering potential interest rate increases that can be set by the Bank of Canada.

What is the “best“ time of year to buy a home?
+

Don’t wait for the “perfect” time to buy, it simply doesn’t exist. Prices are determined by many factors, such as supply and demand, the overall economy, and many other housing market conditions. The impact of these factors varies not just from city to city, but even neighbourhoods. The best indicator to focus on, when assessing your negotiating power as a buyer, is numbers of days on market for a particular property. Generally speaking, the longer it’s been on the market, the more likely the seller will be to negotiate the price!

What is mortgage loan insurance and how does it work?
+

Many people believe that mortgage loan insurance protects the borrower, but that isn’t true! The purpose of Mortgage loan insurance is to protect the lender in case the borrower defaults on their payments. Because of this, lenders will take our insurance based on factors such as the down payment percentage, and pass those costs on to the homebuyer/borrower, to be paid either in installments or upfront.
