Technology, Alternate Lending and Weekly Market Update - June 17, 2026

This week on the Greater Victoria Real Estate Show, we take a look at how technology has changed the real estate industry over the past 20 years — from the way we communicate with clients to the tools REALTORS® now use every day. Along the way, we share a few funny stories and behind-the-scenes anecdotes about working with colleagues in a changing business.We also discuss what is happening in the mortgage market, including the growing role of alternative lenders and B-lenders. If your financial institution says no, that does not always mean the door is closed. There may be other options available, and understanding those options can make a big difference.Finally, we wrap up with our weekly Greater Victoria market update, reviewing listing activity, price reductions, buyer engagement, and what the numbers are telling us about the current pace of the market.A practical, informative, and occasionally funny conversation about real estate, financing, technology, and the Greater Victoria market.
