Top 25 Vancouver real estate accounts to follow for homes, neighbourhoods and local insight
Our 2026 editorial watchlist connects city neighbourhoods, North Shore homes, regional moves and practical real estate resources.

A local publishing perspective
Vancouver is not one housing story. An East Vancouver character home, a North Shore property, a Burnaby condo and a Tri-Cities move ask a reader to think about different places and forms of ownership. A worthwhile real estate follow should make some part of that picture easier to explore.
Our 2026 Top 25 is an editorial watchlist of professional accounts with a defined local or subject-matter brief and a substantive destination behind the profile. We considered their own published property collections, neighbourhood resources, educational subjects and clearly identified practices. The order expresses our editorial preference for useful starting points. It is not a follower-count, engagement or sales leaderboard, and it does not claim that every social post has been reviewed.
The scope is Greater Vancouver rather than the city boundary alone. Regional selections are identified in their entries, including North Shore, Burnaby, New Westminster and Tri-Cities practices; wider corridor coverage is explained where relevant. The collection mixes people, teams and an explicitly identified professional podcast account. Each offers a different way into the real estate conversation.
01 · The Ruth & David Group — East Vancouver, street by street
Stilhavn Real Estate Services · @theruthanddavidgroup
East Vancouver is more useful as a collection of places than as one broad search label. Ruth & David’s professional resources connect the account with named streets such as Cotton Drive, Parker and East 8th, alongside community and housing material. We open with the group because that geographic identity gives a reader a clear reason to follow. The team’s own publication and Instagram destination form two routes into the same local practice; the value is the connection between homes and their surroundings. Explore the professional resources.
02 · Leo Wilk — The decisions around the property
Engel & Völkers · @leowilk_realestate
Wilk supplies a particularly practical companion to property browsing. His published video index names subjects including reading strata documents, selling with pets, low offers and the steps after an accepted offer. These topics explain why the account belongs on a home-mover’s watchlist: they address decisions that a photograph cannot settle. We favour that recognisable educational brief. The video library is the supporting resource; inclusion does not imply that every Instagram item covers each subject or that an older explanation is current legal advice. Explore the professional resources.
03 · Adam Chahl / PLACE — A metro-wide discovery route
Oakwyn Realty Ltd. · @place.vancouver
PLACE connects its social identity with a Metro Vancouver search and resource publication. Neighbourhood browsing and presale material make the professional site a useful follow-through destination for readers whose search is still taking shape. Chahl’s team has a clear residential brief within Oakwyn. We include the account for the breadth of that discovery route: a reader can begin with an area or housing category and continue into a more specific search. This is an editorial choice about the available resources, rather than a claim about sales volume. Explore the professional resources.
04 · Garbutt + Dumas — New Westminster and the connected region
Oakwyn Realty Ltd. · @gdrealestateteam
Garbutt + Dumas offers one of this selection’s clearest regional resource maps. Its professional publication separates New Westminster, Burnaby, Port Moody and the wider region, with buyer and seller guides alongside a podcast and blog. Published 2026 subjects include selling in a buyer’s market and renovating to sell. Those defined topics give the linked social account a substantial companion. We particularly value the attention to condos and townhouses as well as detached homes: Greater Vancouver’s housing conversation needs all three. Explore the professional resources.
05 · The Macnabs — The Tri-Cities through property stories
Royal LePage Elite West · @themacnabs
The Macnabs gives the Tri-Cities a recognisable place in a Vancouver-area watchlist. The team’s professional publication brings property stories together with named Coquitlam and Port Moody resources, rather than folding every location into a city-centre luxury narrative. That local vocabulary is the attraction. We include its Instagram destination as a route into the practice’s property presentation and wider regional material. A property remaining in an archive does not establish current availability; the useful comparison is between settings and housing forms. Explore the professional resources.
06 · Steve Saretsky / Saretsky Group — Market context with an identifiable practice
Oakwyn Realty Ltd. · @stevesaretsky
Saretsky offers a different entry point from the property-first accounts around him. His professional identity connects market commentary with an identifiable Vancouver real estate practice. We select this destination for readers who want a framework for thinking about the market alongside their housing search. Commentary is most useful when its date and assumptions remain visible. Our inclusion recognises a defined editorial subject, not the accuracy of every forecast, an investment outcome or a recommendation to act on a social post alone. Explore the professional resources.
07 · West Coast Modern — Architecture gives the account its subject
Royal LePage Sussex · @westcoastmodernhomes
West Coast Modern makes architecture the organising idea. Its professional portfolio names homes and credits architects, while its journal adds conversations about design and the cultural life of houses. The linked account carries that subject into a recognisable visual collection. We include it for readers who want a home’s design lineage and setting to matter as much as its finishes. The regional scope extends beyond Vancouver, so each property’s location remains part of the story. This is an editorial architecture-and-housing selection, not a claim that every pictured home is currently available. Explore the professional resources.
08 · Judy Ross — A different waterfront housing story
Royal LePage Westside · @vancouveruniquehomes
Vancouver’s waterfront story includes more than towers with water views. Judy Ross’s professional publication gives float homes a clear identity, bringing a distinctive housing form into an otherwise broad residential watchlist. Her linked Vancouver Unique Homes account is our specialist counterpoint to the condo, detached-house and presale feeds elsewhere here. The attraction is the specificity of the subject. Float-home arrangements have their own property and moorage details; this editorial inclusion does not treat those homes as interchangeable with conventional freehold housing. Explore the professional resources.
09 · Eric Christiansen — A focused West Vancouver property collection
Bellevue Realty Group · @soldbyeric
Christiansen’s destination has a defined West Vancouver property brief, supported by his own professional collection and Bellevue Realty Group identity. It earns a place for readers who want a focused North Shore lens rather than a province-wide luxury sampler. Named properties give the presentation a geographic anchor, while the social account supplies another route into the practice. We assess that coherence of place and presentation; neither a polished collection nor a premium price establishes a transaction-performance ranking. Explore the professional resources.
10 · Team CT — The people behind the property search
Oakwyn Realty · @realtor.dads
Erik Carlson and Andrew Truong provide a useful change of register. Their Realtor Dads identity connects two named professionals with a team and family perspective, while the official Team CT page establishes the practice behind it. That makes the account easy to place within the wider residential conversation. We include it because a follow can be useful for the people and viewpoint as well as for a property category. The choice is about a recognisable professional identity, not a borrowed popularity award. Explore the professional resources.
11 · Gary Serra / Serra & Associates — City communities as the organising idea
Oakwyn Realty · @garyserra_real_estate
Serra & Associates gives several Vancouver settings their own place in the professional resource mix, including East Vancouver, Downtown and the Westside. That is a useful structure for readers comparing quite different versions of city living. We include the linked Gary Serra account as an individual doorway into that team publication. The editorial appeal is the connection between neighbourhood discovery and a named practice: a familiar community can be the starting point, rather than an undifferentiated stream of listings. Explore the professional resources.
12 · Adam Graham — Vancouver luxury and a Real Broker BC voice
Real Broker B.C. Ltd. · @vancouveradam.re
At No.12, Adam Graham combines a Vancouver luxury-neighbourhood perspective with an identifiable voice in Real Broker’s British Columbia community. His professional publication separates Coal Harbour, Yaletown and West Vancouver, giving the luxury angle a concrete geography. His public account adds podcast hosting and posts about Real BC’s agent community, including his own reflections on its October 2026 leadership summit. Those two strands make him a useful inclusion: the site addresses places a buyer might compare, while the account introduces the professional conversations around the business. We favour that combination over a generic luxury label. Graham practises with Real Broker B.C. Ltd.; the wider community presence is described through his published subjects, rather than an assumed corporate title. For readers interested in both Vancouver housing and the people shaping its professional conversation, he offers a distinct reason to follow. Explore the professional resources.
13 · Behroyan & Associates — Luxury browsing organised by geography
Behroyan & Associates Real Estate Services Ltd. · @behroyan
Behroyan’s professional publication separates West Vancouver, North Vancouver and Vancouver’s east and west sides. That organisation matters in a luxury-oriented collection: the setting is part of the home’s meaning. We include the firm’s Instagram destination for readers who want to move between those locations through a consistent property identity. The account complements the narrower West Vancouver picks rather than replacing their local focus. This is recognition of a navigable presentation and subject range, with no sales-superiority claim. Explore the professional resources.
14 · Roch & Weeks — A clear Vancouver Westside brief
RE/MAX Select Properties · @rochandweeksrealestate
Roch & Weeks keeps the Westside readily identifiable through its professional collection. West 12th, West 48th, Granville and West 16th are among the named settings that give a reader a concrete place to start. The team’s social account is a companion to that locally grounded property material. We select it for the clarity of the brief: readers considering the Westside can explore a practice whose public presentation is easy to connect to those streets, without treating a particular listing or archived price as current market evidence. Explore the professional resources.
15 · Shannon Pickering — North Shore homes through an individual lens
Rennie & Associates Realty Ltd. · @pickering_homes
Pickering’s Rennie professional profile connects her account with a North Shore identity and an interest in homes and design. This is an individual-voice selection within a list that also includes larger team feeds. We like that contrast: a person-led account can provide a different route into the same geography as a formal property collection. The supporting brokerage profile makes the professional connection clear. Inclusion recognises that identifiable local perspective; it does not imply that a personal account covers every community or property type equally. Explore the professional resources.
16 · Carly Isherwood — A personal route into the Vancouver practice
Rennie & Associates · @carlyisherwhat
Isherwood’s distinctive social identity links back to a Vancouver professional publication and a current Rennie & Associates practice. We include her for readers who prefer an identifiable individual to a broad corporate account. The professional site provides a useful second destination for property information and contact, keeping the follow connected to an actual practice. That connection is the editorial reason for selection: personality can make an account memorable, but a clear route into substantive professional resources makes it more useful. Explore the professional resources.
17 · Geoff Taylor — A conversational starting point
Rennie & Associates · @geoffrealestate
Taylor’s professional publication gives West Vancouver, North Vancouver and Downtown their own search routes, alongside an Ask Geoff Anything invitation and market-update resources. It is a straightforward consumer brief: begin with the setting, then continue into a conversation about the move. The linked account offers a personal doorway into that structure. We include it as a contrast to the more spectacle-led property collections; the appeal is accessibility and an easy-to-understand regional scope, rather than a claim about audience size. Explore the professional resources.
18 · Angèle L’Abbé — Homes and condos in a named city setting
Oakwyn Realty Ltd. · @angelesells
L’Abbé’s professional collection brings together Vancouver homes and condos with named settings such as West 13th, Cardero and East 27th. Her own biography also supplies a homebuilding perspective. We select the linked account for the combination of an individual identity and a recognisable city property brief. It complements, rather than duplicates, a large team directory: readers can explore a single professional’s presentation and then follow through to the property and practice information that supports it. Explore the professional resources.
19 · Doris Gee & Phil Moore — Burnaby within the wider housing picture
RE/MAX Crest Realty · @dorisgee_iloverealestate
Doris Gee and Phil Moore give Burnaby a clear place alongside New Westminster and Vancouver in their professional publication. Buyer and seller resources support the property material, offering a broader follow-through path than a social profile alone. We include the Doris Gee account for readers whose housing search crosses municipal boundaries. Those boundaries matter: a Burnaby-focused practice is a useful addition to a Vancouver-area collection, not evidence that the two markets are interchangeable. Explore the professional resources.
20 · Hafez Panju — A regional resource companion
Royal LePage West Real Estate Services · @hafezrealty
Panju’s professional destination combines Lower Mainland property discovery with buyer and seller resources. The linked account is included as another route into that regional residential brief. Its place in this selection rests on an identifiable professional and a supporting resource publication, rather than a single striking property or a follower total. For a reader still comparing parts of the region, that broader starting point can be useful; a later shortlist should become more specific about the neighbourhood and housing form involved. Explore the professional resources.
21 · Andreas Nystrom — The corridor north of the city
RE/MAX Crest Realty · @andreasnystrom604
Nystrom’s professional site identifies Vancouver, the North Shore and Squamish as separate geographic routes. That makes the account relevant to readers comparing city living with a move farther north. We include it for that explicitly described corridor, while keeping the distinction intact: Squamish is a regional comparison, not a Vancouver neighbourhood. The linked social identity and current RE/MAX Crest practice give the wider coverage a professional anchor. The editorial value is geographic clarity, not a claim of equal expertise in every street across the corridor. Explore the professional resources.
22 · Benny Jain / Stone Group — A wider Metro Vancouver conversation
Woodhouse Realty · @bennyjainrealtor
Stone Group’s professional publication makes room for homebuying, inspections, neighbourhoods and property presentation, with Benny Jain providing a named social identity. The team’s wider Metro Vancouver and Fraser Valley scope adds a different regional lens to the list. We select this destination for the breadth of its consumer subjects and clear connection to Woodhouse Realty. The regional coverage is identified as such; this is not a claim that every item concerns the City of Vancouver or that the publication has watched every film. Explore the professional resources.
23 · Kelly Fry Team — An investment-oriented property brief
Keller Williams Bold Realty · @kellyfryteam
The Kelly Fry Team gives investing an explicit place alongside buying and selling in its professional publication. Coquitlam-area and regional property resources make that a defined subject rather than a vague promise of opportunity. We include its linked account as a specialist contrast within the broader watchlist. The current BCFSA professional record identifies Keller Williams Bold Realty, which is the brokerage label used here. Selection recognises the focus of the material, not an endorsement of an investment, a return forecast or financial advice. Explore the professional resources.
24 · Vancouver Real Estate Podcast — Longer conversations beside the property feed
Oakwyn Realty — Scalena Real Estate · @vancouverrealestatepodcast
Adam and Matt Scalena’s Vancouver Real Estate Podcast adds a longer-form destination to the mix. Its professional publication connects episodes with residential buying, selling and property resources through Scalena Real Estate. The linked Instagram account is a discovery route into that broader body of work. We include it to give readers an alternative to a property-only feed. This is an editorial assessment of the available subjects and professional connection; no listening experience, prediction accuracy or endorsement of every guest’s position is implied. Explore the professional resources.
25 · WESTSIDE Realty / Tom Gradecak — The Westside as a collection of neighbourhoods
WESTSIDE Tom Gradecak Realty · @westside_realty
WESTSIDE Realty closes the list with an office-level destination rooted in a particular part of the city. Named Westside communities and property addresses give the professional publication an immediately recognisable brief. Its linked account offers another route into that local collection. We like the clarity of the geography: Dunbar, Point Grey and Cambie provide more useful starting points than an unspecified promise of Vancouver expertise. This is a locally defined office selection, not a claim that its account represents the entire regional market. Explore the professional resources.
Choose the place and subject that fit your move
For the city itself, begin with the setting: Ruth & David’s East Vancouver focus, Roch & Weeks’ Westside brief and WESTSIDE Realty’s community vocabulary offer different routes. For a home farther from the centre, Garbutt + Dumas and The Macnabs add New Westminster and the Tri-Cities, while the North Shore selections keep their own geography visible.
For the decision around the home, Wilk’s named educational topics, West Coast Modern’s architecture focus, Ross’s float-home brief and the longer conversation at Vancouver Real Estate Podcast provide useful contrasts. A good watchlist should leave room for those differences. It should help readers find the subject and place that matter to their move, rather than imply that one feed is best for every household.
