Life at The Rise

The Rise is a master-planned hillside community in the Bella Vista highlands, on the north side of the Vernon Arm of Okanagan Lake, about 10 to 15 minutes from downtown Vernon. It's built around a Fred Couples signature golf course that opened in 2008, sitting roughly 400 metres above the lake, so many homes look straight out over Okanagan Lake and the Landing.

Vineyards were planted on the slopes when the community started, and it still has that open, rural feel, with trails and big skies. Kin Beach and the Tronson Road boat launch are about five minutes down the hill.

It's a big community that's still growing. Seacliff Properties bought the remaining development land in 2017, and new phases keep coming, so you'll find newer homes, townhomes and building lots side by side.

Pockets and phases

• Ledge at The Rise: a townhome community by Aldebaran Homes at 7735 Okanagan Hills Boulevard, with one- to three-bedroom homes.
• Vineyard Way, Cordon Place, Balsam Court and Harvest Court: single-family homes, many with walkout basements and lake views.
• Silversage Terrace and Silversage Bluff Lane: view lots and newer custom homes on the upper slopes.

Some pockets are strata or bare land strata, with their own fees and bylaws. I'll pull the details on any home you're serious about.

Selling a home at The Rise?

If you're thinking about selling, I can tell you what your home is worth in today's market and what buyers here are looking for. Here are the questions sellers ask me most.

What is my home at The Rise worth?

I'll prepare a comparative market analysis using recent sales of similar homes in and around The Rise, adjusted for your home's size, condition, updates and views. It's free and there's no obligation. Request a free home valuation or call or text Sarah, my AI assistant, at 604-227-4810.

How long does it take to sell at The Rise?

That depends on price, condition and the season. When we meet, I'll show you how long similar homes have been taking to sell right now, and how pricing affects it.

What should I fix before listing my home at The Rise?

Focus on what buyers notice first: fresh paint, small repairs, clean windows, tidy landscaping and good lighting. Skip big renovations unless they clearly pay back. I'll walk through your home and tell you what's worth doing.

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.
