Provincial Government
Relocation Guide

Relocation Process

Victoria is the capital of British Columbia, and the provincial government is the largest employer in the region. The BC Government has offices throughout downtown Victoria and James Bay. The relocation process typically involves researching neighbourhoods, getting pre-approved for a mortgage, booking a house-hunting trip, and working with Andrew to find the perfect home. Andrew and his team coordinate with your employer's relocation department if applicable.

Housing Recommendations

Housing options vary by neighbourhood and budget. Condos and townhomes are available from $400,000. Single-family homes range from $750,000 to $1.3M+. Waterfront and executive properties are available in premium neighbourhoods. Andrew and his team can help you find the right property type for your needs and budget.

Buying Process

The home-buying process in Victoria is similar to other Canadian provinces: get pre-approved, find a property, make an offer with conditions, complete inspections, and close. Andrew and his team guide you through every step. For first-time buyers, the BC government offers a First Time Home Buyers' Program that reduces or eliminates property transfer tax on homes under $500,000.
