Kung Hei Fat Choi

Happy Chinese New Year, everyone.

I'm looking forward to the Year of the Dragon. I think it is going to be a prosperous year for us all.

In the spirit of Chinese New Year - here are a few things NOT to do over the next few days.

1. Don't cut your hair. Anything to do with cutting is bad luck in Chinese culture. Don't cut your fingernails either. Or

2. Don't clean. All of your cleaning should have been done before. So, it's too late now.

3. Don't say the word 'book'. It sounds like

4. Don't buy shoes. The symbol for shoes looks likes evil. Ooooh.

5. Don't talk about death. I shouldn't even be writing about it now!

6. Don't swear. Keep it clean, people.

7. Don't talk about finishing anything. Even this lis

Chinese Realtor in Vancouver

It's one thing to sell your house.

It's a whole other thing to get the best possible price.

Most people don't sell property very many times in their life. So the whole process can be daunting. Often, by making a sale in a hurry, they'll leave a lot of money on the table. It can be tens of thousands of dollars.

That is why it is essential to have an experienced realtor in your corner when it comes to the sale of your Vancouver real estate.

In Vancouver, some of the biggest buyers of real estate are the Chinese from Hong Kong and Mainland China. You need a Chinese realtor in Vancouver that speaks not only English, but Mandarin, Cantonese and even French.

This is where I come into play. I speak all four languages. I understand Chinese culture, and how they negotiate, and I can be a valuable asset in the sales (and buying) process.

If you are looking to sell - and you want the most money you can possibly get for your real estate, then you will need a Chinese real estate agent in Vancouver - like me.
