High-end service. 150+ successful buyer transactions in 6 years with Team Vince Chan. When you choose to work with me, you get Team Vince Chan - a 5-person team backed by over 50 years combined experience. We have a different team member responsible for and specializing in each step of the process, in sync with meticulous attention to every detail. Our approach is simple: client-first, always. Backed up with a hospitality background and 6 years on a top RE/MAX team in Western Canada, it's my passion to help first-time buyers, investors, and families find their perfect property across the North Shore, Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam, and beyond!

We specialize in all residential property types - condos, townhouses, rowhouses, duplexes, land, and detached homes - working with first-time buyers, upsizers, downsizers, and investors. 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.

While years in the industry matter, deal volume matters more. I joined Team Vince Chan to maximize my experience with as many clients as possible and to learn from the best. We personalize our sales system to you while executing high-end service. That's what you get with Team Vince Chan. We have achieved Medallion Club (Top 10% of MLS Realtors of all Greater Vancouver Realtors - out of 15,000+ Realtors) for over 10 consecutive years!

When I'm not helping clients find their perfect property, you'll find me enjoying and criticizing Canucks hockey, coaching badminton in my community and a local high school, avidly playing pickleball, or camping throughout beautiful BC.

This is a great experience of buying a property at another city. My acquaintance with Ivan did not come through a friend's recommendation but rather through an online search. Despite being in different cities, his professionalism, enthusiasm, attention to detail, and patience dispelled all my concerns, leading to a smooth completion of the entire process. If there's one area for improvement, it would be when I submitted the security deposit. Due to being in another city, his company only accepted wire transfers and not bank drafts for the deposit, causing inconvenience and increasing my costs. As for Ivan's service, I give it a 5-star rating.

We had the pleasure of working with Noel and Ivan from Team Vince Chan for the sale of our condo. They helped and guided us from the start of the process, communicates and updates us regularly and advise us what and when to adjust. With the current tough market condition, they remain very professional and realistic regarding pricing and our expectations. They looked upon our interest during offer/negotiation time and thoroughly explained to us all the details of the contract of purchase and sale before signing. They made the whole process of selling stress-free and seamless. We thank and appreciate what Noel and Ivan did for us, two amazing realtors who we will highly recommend for those who are looking for realtors to work with.

It has been a great honor for me to work with specialists from Team Vince Chan. I met the buyer specialist Gabriel in September 2022. Since then, Gabriel has helped me learn about the market, search, filtrate and show properties. When I was financially ready in May 2023, Gabriel introduced another specialist, Leona. They assisted me together, ensured seamless connection of work at any time. They have put so much effort in communicating and negotiating with seller agents, they have shown impressive bargain skills, and they even provide reliable inspector and notary connections to clients. With Gabriel and Leona’s extreme patience and professionalism, I barely had any worries during the whole process, and I finally harvested my dream property at a surprisingly affordable price in the next month. Endless gratitude from me to Gabriel and Leona of Team Vince Chan!

From start to finish, their professionalism, dedication, and vast knowledge of the real estate market made the entire process more manageable as a first time home buyer. Right from our initial meeting, Leona and Gabriel took the time to truly understand my preferences, needs, and budget.

Her expertise in securing the best possible deal was evident, and she effortlessly represented my interests throughout the process. Gabriel's keen eye for detail and in-depth knowledge of homes played a crucial role in my home-buying journey. He meticulously inspected each property we visited, thoroughly assessing for any potential issues or opportunities for appreciation. His insights and recommendations were invaluable in helping me make informed decisions and envision the true potential of each property.

The team who really took care of us from start to finish (and even up to now). We got Vince Chan as our buyer agent when we bought our first condo property about ten years ago. Then we reached out for his service again late last year when my husband and I decided to sell it in order to upgrade to a bigger place. SELL: Noel Yii and Ivan Lung helped us prepare our condo to be listing ready. As parents with young kids, this is quite hard to implement within a set timeline but they helped us along the way. They got us organized, linked us to service providers who can help prepare our condo unit for showing i.e. painting, disposal and moving services and set realistic timeline of expected activities with us. They looked after our interest during offer/negotiation stage that we were able to sell our place at a good price and within a fair timeframe. They even hands-on helped us during our move-out day! BUY: Leona Lam and Gabriel Ip made sure we see listings that are within our budget and preference. They were very honest with what to expect on the single-detached house market and gave us options to consider or think about. They helped us look at a few houses to compare with, connected us with good service providers who helped us inspect the house and made sure we make an informed, realistic and happy decision before we bought our new place. They also connected us with contractors who can assist us with minor renovations at our new place. Overall Team Vince Chan really worked as a well-coordinated team. They treated us like we are part of their family and have a great sense of humour that made our selling and buying experience fun. Thanks for all your help!

They listened carefully to my requirements and was able to quickly identify properties that met my criteria.

Throughout the entire process, Leona Lam and Gabriel Ip were always available to answer my questions, provide guidance, and offer their expert opinion. They were proactive in communicating with me and made sure that I was well-informed every step of the way. Their attention to detail and responsiveness were truly outstanding. When it came time to make an offer on my dream home, Leona Lam and Gabriel Ip were absolute rockstars. They negotiated skillfully on my behalf, and I was able to secure the property at a fair price.

Overall, I would highly recommend Leona Lam and Gabriel Ip to anyone in need of a reliable, knowledgeable, and dedicated real estate agent. They truly went above and beyond to ensure that I found the perfect home, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Multiple friends referred Gabriel Ip and Leona Lam, and we had a great experience with them. They understood our requirements, budget, and target locations and helped us to find the best fit. During our house hunting, they highlighted issues we would have missed, such as road noise, proximity to the gas station, potential roofing issues, or water damage in the property. All the house visits were appropriately arranged to fit our schedule. Leona and Grabriel were very responsive and always ready to answer our questions. They didn’t force or rush us to buy a property and encouraged us to take our time and ensure we found a property we love. I would highly recommend Gabriel and Leona to anyone looking for a realtor.
