ByHomeOwner connects buyers and renters directly with verified owners in Vancouver. ## Prices and budgets Set your budget in CAD (C$) and compare asking prices across neighbourhoods before you enquire. Because there is no agent commission on owner listings, more of your budget goes into the property itself. ## Paperwork and checks Every listing in Vancouver can be put through our 14-point verification: proof of ownership, identity, address, photo authenticity and price sanity checks. Ask for the verification badge before you pay any deposit. ## Local tips Visit at different times of day, confirm service charges and local taxes in writing, and use our mortgage and buy-vs-rent tools to model the true monthly cost in CAD. ## Next steps Search live homes in Vancouver, save the search to get alerts when new verified homes appear, or post a wanted ad so owners come to you.
