We specialize in all residential property types - condos, townhouses, rowhouses, duplexes, land, and detached homes. I'll provide honest guidance even if it means walking away from a sale, because buying or selling a home is one of life's biggest decisions and you deserve someone who prioritizes your best interests above commission.

Leona and Gabriel from Team Vince Chan made our home-buying experience a truly positive one! They were knowledgeable, supportive, flexible with scheduling, and always quick to answer our questions. Leona’s negotiation skills and attention to detail were impressive. She took a thoughtful, non-aggressive approach, and we couldn’t be happier with the purchase price! Gabriel also went above and beyond by researching the property’s listing price history and assessed value without us even having to ask. His insights helped us determine a reasonable bargaining position and feel confident in our decision. We’re incredibly grateful for their guidance and would highly recommend Leona and Gabriel to anyone looking for professional, responsive, and trustworthy real estate agents!

The whole team at Vince Chan was amazing. from our first meeting to selling our home and buying our new one it was seamless. Ivan and Noel are so knowledgeable about the market and offered us the perfect advice that got our house sold fast (and in this market we thought it would sit for months). Gabriel and Leona helped tour neighbourhoods with us and shortlisted homes that fit our criteria. In the end we found our dream home and that process was seamless as well! would highly recommend the entire team and would use them over again if i had to.

Leona and Gabriel from Team Vince Chan were fantastic to work with! They did an incredible job helping me purchase my first apartment and made the entire experience enjoyable and as stress-free as possible. They were always friendly, patient, and willing to answer any questions I had, regardless of the time of day. I really appreciated how responsive and supportive they were throughout the process. Their dedication, knowledge, and genuine care made a huge difference, and I always felt like I was in good hands. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a realtor, especially if you’re a first time home buyer.

After much research, I selected Noel and Ivan from Team Vince to help sell my mother's Burnaby condo. They came prepared and did not sugar-coat the challenge of selling in a down market. They helped me navigate strict strata rules to make improvements to differentiate the unit from the competition. With a listing strategy in place, we tested the market and had an offer and sale the next month. They were honest, direct, and represented my best interest throughout the process. Excellent communicators. Thank you!

Review for Leona Lam (Team Vince Chan) I recently had the pleasure of working with Leona Lam from Team Vince Chan to purchase our 3-bedroom condo near the UBC area. As an overseas buyer based in Hong Kong, I was initially worried about managing a transaction from afar. However, Leona made the entire process remarkably smooth and stress-free. Despite the significant time difference between Vancouver and Hong Kong, Leona was always incredibly responsive and easy to reach. She went above and beyond by assisting with detailed house inspections prior to us placing our deposits, giving us full confidence in our purchase. Throughout property viewings, negotiations, and final completion, she listened closely to our needs and provided genuinely impartial advice without any pressure. Her professionalism, local market expertise, and dedication to her clients are second to none. If you are looking for a trustworthy, responsive, and client-focused realtor, especially if you are buying from overseas. Leona is top-tier. Thank you, Leona, for your outstanding support!

We highly recommend this team.

Gabriel has been such a big supporter in our journey. We are very lucky to have him as a guide; he is very good at explaining and passing on information clearly. You can ask as many questions, he is always happy to answer with details. We had the best time working with him during this process, and he made sure we were working towards achieving our goal. If you want to have a supportive and understanding agent, we highly recommend Gabrielle for your consultations.

I like their team approach. Either Leona or Gabriel was always available to promptly respond to my inquiries and accommodate my changing schedules. They have different personality and offered different strengths which I think is beneficial. They seemed sincere in looking after my needs and interests by providing me valuable feedback and different perspectives.

I have now worked with Leona and Gabriel twice and could not be happier. They are super responsive and professional. I love how fast they get back to me in answering all my questions. They couldn’t have made buying a new place more smoother. They are truly passionate. We found my new place within a week. I recommend them as well as the rest of the Vince Chan team.

Noel Yii and Ivan Lung on the team came recommended by my cousin for the sale of my father' house. They handled the sale of my aunt's and uncle's house about 1.5 years ago. We felt an immediate rapport the first time we met them. They were insightful and came prepared with research and knowledge on the neighbourhood, the market for my father's house, and the type of prospective buyers. They were strategic, practical and succinct with their advice and set our expectations appropriately based on the current market. They were also very detailed and organized in terms of their suggested timeline of all the steps from the outset so we can take advantage of listing traffic at various times of the year. They were also crucial in providing excellent referrals for various cleaning, repair and household item removal services. The referrals were all efficient, detailed and very pleasant to work with. During the process of preparing the house for listing, hosting open houses and negotiating with the prospective buyers, they were quick, efficient, very clear in explaining the reasons for their suggested actions and what the next steps would be. Both Noel and Ivan looked out and protected our interest with their practical and strategic advice while keeping the buyers engaged. In the current challenging market, from the first open house to clearance of subject of a very good offer, it all took place within 2 weeks!

Working with Gabe and Leona was a great experience! The two realtors for one price deal where they both have very different styles. This actually adds a lot of value — you get two unique perspectives and balanced advice, but the final decisions are always in your hands. Additionally scheduling viewings between the two of them becomes easier. They were supportive and never pushy, helping us stay confident throughout our home search. We moved fairly quickly but never felt rushed, and the whole process felt easy and thoughtful. Thank you, Gabe and Leona, for helping us find our home!

Excellent experience working with Noel Yii and Ivan Lung in Burnaby. Although I live out of the country, Noel and Ivan provided amazing assistance, expert guidance, and invaluable support with preparing and selling my mom's (estate) condo. They have strong professional contacts, went out of their way to speak to the neighbors to ease the sale, and communicated regularly. A truly outstanding experience - go with them, you will not be disappointed!

Noel Yii and Ivan Lung were my realtors during the sale of my condo - they were extremely knowledgeable about the market, and set my expectations accordingly. They were self-sufficient, and organized everything to happen without needing my input, but kept me updated on showings/interest/etc. Would recommend Noel & Ivan if you're selling your property!

Moving back to Vancouver from the U.S. was a daunting task in a difficult market however, Leona and Gabe were highly professional, dedicated and responsive to our unique situation. They were unwavering in their commitment to find our new home. There are very few agents that put as much effort into helping us navigate our home purchase from start to finish and we cannot thank them enough. I would happily recommend Leona and Gabe to anyone looking to purchase a new property!

We first worked with Team Vince Chan’s Leona Lam and Gabriel Ip when buying our new apartment and had such a fantastic experience - they were thoughtful, organized, and communicative - that when it came time to sell our old place, we knew we had to talk to them again. We checked out a few other agents just to make sure we were making the right choice. But honestly, Team Vince stood out right away. Even though we had already worked with them and told them how much we liked it, they still took the time to answer all our questions patiently and in detail. It made the decision super easy in the end. This time, we had the pleasure of working with Noel Yii and Ivan Lung, and they were outstanding. They expertly coordinated repairs, cleaning, and professional photography to ensure the unit looked perfect for the listing. They gave us thorough research on our neighbourhood, building, and comparable properties, and advised us fairly and honestly on a price. Once the open house and showings started, they kept us informed on any potential interest every step of the way. Even in a slower market, Noel and Ivan were able to find us a buyer, and once again coordinated the closing process seamlessly. We wholeheartedly recommend Team Vince to anyone buying or selling. Their service is truly remarkable.

Leona and Gabriel of Team Vince Chan absolutely killed it for us. As first-time homebuyers, we came into the process with a whole lot of unknowns, a laundry list of oddball preferences, and some pretty specific feng shui requirements. Maybe it’s a first-time buyer thing, but we were definitely searching for perfect—and they never once made us feel like that was unreasonable. From the very beginning, Leona and Gabriel were patient, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. They matched our energy every step of the way, taking the time to explain every detail (no matter how small), and answering our million and one questions without ever making us feel like we were asking too much. What really stood out was how deeply they paid attention—not just to what we said we wanted, but to who we were. They truly got us, and used that understanding to guide us toward homes that actually felt right. The search took months, but they never lost steam or enthusiasm. If anything, they got more determined to help us find the right fit. We never felt like “just another client”—we genuinely felt like they cared about our happiness, and that made all the difference. When we finally found the one—it really was perfect—there were multiple bids on the property. We truly believe we won because of Leona and Gabriel’s stellar reputation in the industry. Their professionalism, relationships, and credibility gave our offer that extra edge, and we can’t thank them enough. Leona and Gabriel are the real ones. If you’re looking for realtors who are smart, heart-forward, and fully in your corner from start to finish, they’re it! We’re so grateful we found them—and even more grateful they helped us find our first home.

Gabriel was a great realtor from the beginning to the end of the entire purchasing process, and was very attentive to my expectations and needs. He highlighted concerns and addressed any questions that I had by providing information in a timely, professional manner, and I was impressed with his knowledge of different neighbourhoods of interest. Gabriel's kindness and patience made the purchasing process smooth; he's very well-versed at dealing with other real estate agents for my best interests. I would highly recommend Gabriel to help anyone in their search for a home.

Gabriel and Leona are real estate professionals and went above and beyond helping my parents purchase a condo in Richmond BC. Despite my parent’s language barrier and somewhat picky preferences, both realtors were professional and patient and corresponded with my parents for a period of over six months to help finalize a deal often in the evening and weekends! Always available and quick to respond. Their expertise was appreciated and noted when trying to navigate a somewhat tricky market. They are highly recommended and won’t hesitate to use them again in the future.
