Homes for Sale in the Harwood Elementary Catchment

Every home for sale in the Harwood Elementary catchment is shown above, straight from the MLS and updated daily. Harwood is one of the most improved schools in Vernon, and a practical, family-friendly part of town. Call or text Sarah, my assistant, at 604-227-4810 any time and we'll help you narrow it down.

I drew this search from School District 22's 2026–27 catchment map as closely as I can, so homes right on a boundary may be in or out. Always confirm the address with the SD22 school locator before you buy.

Where the Harwood catchment is

The Harwood catchment is a long, narrow strip in north Vernon: the Harwood neighbourhood and the Highway 97 and Pleasant Valley Road corridor north past the east side of Swan Lake, with a slice of north East Hill and the BX. It includes the Harwood Springs townhomes.

Questions buyers ask me

Does Harwood Elementary still offer French Immersion?

No. SD22 moved late French Immersion from Harwood to Ecole Beairsto Elementary, which now runs both early and late French Immersion for the district.

How is Harwood Elementary rated?

Harwood rated 6.5 out of 10 in the Fraser Institute's 2026 report card, well above its five-year average of 5.6.

Which high school do Harwood students attend?

Most Harwood addresses are in the W.L. Seaton Secondary catchment; a few on the east side go to Vernon Secondary. Confirm with the SD22 school locator.

Does buying a home in the catchment guarantee my child a spot?

Not quite. Children who live in the catchment get priority, but School District 22 places students subject to space, and a few groups (like Okanagan Indian Band students and medical transfers) come first. Register as early as you can once you have an accepted offer, and confirm the address with the SD22 school locator before you buy.

Selling a home in the Harwood catchment?

If you're thinking about selling, I can tell you what your home is worth in today's market and how to market it to families shopping by school. Here are the questions sellers ask me most.

What is my home in the Harwood catchment worth?

I'll prepare a comparative market analysis using recent sales of similar homes nearby, adjusted for your home's size, condition, updates and views. Families pay close attention to school catchments, so I'll make sure buyers know which schools your address is in. It's free and there's no obligation. Request a free home valuation or call or text Sarah, my assistant, at 604-227-4810.

Does the school catchment matter when I sell?

It can widen your pool of buyers, because many families search by school first. I list the catchment schools in your marketing and point buyers to the SD22 school locator so they can confirm it themselves.

When is the best time to list a family home?

Many families like to move over the summer so kids can start the school year in their new home, so spring is often busy. The right timing still depends on your plans and the market, and I'll walk you through it.

Should I sell before I buy my next home?

It depends on the market and your finances. Selling first gives you certainty; buying first lets you take your time. I'll help you plan the timing, including subject-to-sale offers and bridge financing options.

What does it cost to sell a home in BC?

Commission in BC is always negotiable. My standard fee is 6% on the first $100,000 of the sale price and 3% on the balance, plus GST, shared equally with the brokerage that brings the buyer. On an $800,000 sale, for example, that's $6,000 + $21,000 = $27,000 plus GST. That covers a lot of work behind the scenes, from me and from the technology I put in place, all aimed at getting you the best price and the easiest possible sale. Your other costs are legal or notary fees and any mortgage discharge costs or penalties. In BC the buyer, not the seller, pays property transfer tax. I'll give you a net-proceeds estimate before you list.
