Macdonald Realty is where I found “my” home 10 years ago. I bonded instantly with the vivacious, bright, kind Managing Broker Pat Place. After our extended meeting with lots of great conversations and laughs, I said "well let's see how it goes, maybe I'm not the right type of person for this business" and she said "Julia, you're exactly the right type of person for this business!" Her encouragement, guidance and kindness have never wavered. She's a fantastic woman and friend. 

That's my Intro to Macdonald Realty and my Real Estate Business - spanning the North Shore and Greater Vancouver. 10 years on Macdonald Realty is still the place for me!

Let me help you find your home!

This October, I’m celebrating my 10th year as a REALTOR® in Vancouver and the North Shore—a milestone I couldn’t have reached without the trust, support, and referrals of clients, friends, and community.

When I made a mid-life leap into real estate, I knew it would take persistence and passion to carve out my place in such a competitive market. What I didn’t know is how much I’d come to love this work: the relationships built, the stories shared, and the communities I’ve been privileged to serve.

For me, real estate has never been just about homes—it’s about lifestyle, connection, and helping people thrive in this incredible city. It’s been an honour to be part of so many of your stories along the way. 

If we haven't met yet, join me for your next real estate journey! 💫 Here’s to the next chapter.

Julia Stauffer - Macdonald Realty (North & West Vancouver) 

We recently bought a townhome and sold our condo with Julia as our incredible realtor. This is our 2nd time working with Julia, having bought our 1st home with her help years ago and I just can't recommend her enough. Even through the tough market with many similar condos for sale in our area, she does her research and pays attention to the finest details which allowed us to sell our condo in a short time frame. We are so grateful for her help and knowledge. Julia goes above and beyond. Top notch realtor, stop looking for a realtor - she is the one!!

In 2017, I was featured in the Neighbours of Dundarave Magazine with my daughter Hayley. We had so much fun doing the photo shoot on the West Vancouver Centennial Seawalk. 

In 2024 the magazine was celebrating it’s 10th Anniversary and shared covers from the past 10 years, culminating in the December issue which featured updates from the past cover stars. It was fun to look back talking with them and sharing what we have both been doing. My Real Estate business growth and my daughter’s continued education and career now in London.

Here’s to many more years, Neighbours of Dundarave!

What value will be used to determine your Property Taxes in 2025? The BC assessments as at July 1, 2024 are now live on the BC Assessment Website. Generally across BC values are fairly flat, up or down approximately 3%. As sales picked up during the latter part of 2024, this July 2024 value is likely lower than your true current market value.

To check your home’s assessment, go to bcassessment.ca and search under the address. For a market value analysis, contact me at julia@juliastauffer.ca.

Wishing you and your family a healthy, happy and prosperous 2025!
