6 years later amidst a heated market in Victoria, B.C., I am left scratching my head.

How much can you save as an owner-builder over hiring a contractor in Victoria, B.C.?
The savings are a little difficult to calculate as owner-building will take time away from your actual career/business. I would owner-build again but only if I was semi-retired or completely retired.
As a REALTOR® can you offer more cash back on a real estate purchase?
I can, but only if you as the consumer are willing to embrace a fee for service model.

Do real estate purchasers in Victoria, B.C. factor in earthquake safety in their decision making? No
The most expensive areas, such as Oak Bay, are probably the worst places to be in terms of a large earth quake.
